Though the label is relatively recent, the basic notions and principles of granular computing, though under different names, have appeared in many related fields, such as information hiding in programming, granularity in artificial intelligence, divide and conquer in theoretical computer science, interval computing, cluster analysis, fuzzy and rough set theories, neutrosophic computing, quotient space theory, belief functions, machine learning, databases, and many others. The 2007 IEEE International Conference on Granular Computing(GrC 2007) will be jointly held with the 2007 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference on Web Intelligence(WI 2007), the 2007 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference on Intelligent Agent Technology (IAT 2007), and the 2007 IEEE International Conference on BioInformatics and BioMedicine (BIBM 2007) for providing synergism among the four research areas. It will provide opportunities for technical collaboration beyond that of previous conferences. The four conferences will have a joint opening, keynote, reception, and banquet. Attendees only need to register for one conference and can attend workshops, sessions and tutorials across the four conferences. We are also planning a joint panel and joint paper sessions that discuss common problems in the four areas. +++++++++++ Highlights +++++++++++ The conference will be held in Silicon Valley, California. Many high-tech companies and several distinguished universities (Stanford, UC Berkeley, etc) are just around the corner. The highlight of the conference is that a unique forum consisting of a half-day industry/ demo track and free discussion will be organized to link industries and academics. Leading IT companies like IBM, Google, Yahoo, etc will present at the conference. The area now known as Silicon Valley has been a center of technological development since the 1950\'s. The name Silicon Valley stems from the early 1970\'s, when the area had become the center for many semiconductor companies. While still hosting semiconductor and microprocessor companies, the region now hosts the headquarters of high tech companies of every kind, including many of the best known and most prestigious names in personal computers, Web search, Internet auctions, networking, storage, databases, etc. +++++++++++++++++++ Topics of Interest +++++++++++++++++++ The topics and areas include, but are not limited to: Computational Intelligence (Neural Networks, Fuzzy Systems, Evolutionary Computation, Rough Sets, etc.) Foundation of Data Mining and Learning Theory (Probabilistic/Statistical Learning, Machine Learning, Kernel Machines, etc.) Bioinformatics, Medical Informatics and Chemical Informatics e-Intelligence, Web Intelligence, Web Informatics,Web Mining and Semantic Web ++++++++++++++++ Important Dates ++++++++++++++++ Abstract submission: ** June 16, 2007 ** Electronic submission of full papers: ** June 30, 2007 ** Notification of paper acceptance: August 3, 2007 Camera-ready copies of accepted papers: August 17, 2007 Conference: November 2-4, 2007 Webmaster: * Albert Sutojo, San Jose State University, USA
