<pre> Call for Papers/Demos 2nd International Symposium on Universal Communication Dec 15 - 16, 2008 Osaka International Convention Center, Osaka, Japan The development of information network systems enables us to communicate with people in remote places "anytime and anywhere", enriching human knowledge, affection and sensibility. However, there are various barriers which stand in our way to using these systems freely and flexibly. In order to discuss how to overcome these barriers and create a more human-centered communication environment, in 2007 the first International Symposium on Universal Communication was held in Kyoto, Japan featuring discussions with well-known researchers from around the world. Following its success, the second International Symposium on Universal Communication will be held in Osaka, Japan. Topics of interest are as follows, but not limited to - Information retrieval and information analysis - Information credibility - Knowledge processing - Language resources - Speech recognition and synthesis - Machine translation and speech translation - Natural language processing - Spoken language processing - Multilingual information processing - Super high-resolution image technology - 3D visualization, imaging and display technologies - 3D sound processing - Virtual reality, mixed reality and augmented reality - Multisensory (visual, acoustic, haptic, olfactory, etc) interaction - Human factors - Human interface and interaction technologies - Real-world sensing technologies General Chair Yuichi Matsushima, National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT), Japan General Vice Chairs Kazumasa Enami, NICT, Japan Hiromitsu Wakana, NICT, Japan Technical Program Committee Chair: Satoshi Nakamura, NICT/ATR, Japan Vice Chair: Naomi Inoue, NICT/ATR, Japan - Akio Ando, NHK Science & Technical Research Laboratories, Japan - Martin S.
