Workshop 1: The Human Language Analysed as Digital Networked Communications
Description
The mechanism and origin of human language has never been clarified, probably because it is too complex and sofisticated to be perceived by human beings.
It is necessary to use Reference Models such as General Communication Model of Claude E. Shannon or OSI Reference Model of Computer Networks.
The most important evolution for modern human is the acquisition of "Logical Syllables", which are distinct and finite set of signals with accents, and can be used for not only vocal communication but also translated into written messages as well as logical 0/1 binary format.
Papers are welcome to discuss the following topics or analyse human language using information theory.
A: Digital Communications are Multi-Layer Logical/Physical Phenomena and should be analysed in reference to OSI Model of Computer Networks
1) Channel and Noises
- Shannon's General Communication Model and Analog Communications
- Thermal Noises and Entropy : Contribution of John von Neumann from the Theories of Self-Reproducing Automata
- OSI Rererence Model presupposes the Physical Layer and Logical Layer Interactions (Digital Modulation of Analog Waveform) for Networked Digital Communications
2) Digital Unit: Logical Syllables: Physics of Digitally Modulated Vocal Signals
- Clicks in Khoisan Language
- Syllables which have one accent powered by vowels
- The Anatomical Evolution of Larynx Descent for The Vocalization of Vowels
3) Phonemicand Syllabic Characters
- Phonemic Character Sets and Vowel Indicating Marks
- Syllabic Character Sets and Cursive Style : Japanese KATAKANA and HIRAGANA born in 9th and 10th century
- Chinese Characters
B: Channel Coding Related Issues (Physical Layers)
4) Modulation and Demodulation of Carrier Signals: Anatomical Evolution for Digital Language
- The Secondary Altriciality of Human Brain Development : +6dB to Chimpanzees
- Supra-Laryngeal Vocal Tract and Distinctive Frequency Patterns
- Wernicke Area in Auditory Cortex : From Analog Prequency Patterns to Logical Syllables
5) Unexpected Errors in Intercultural Communications
- Phonemic Errors: Because unclear phonemic pronunciation, sound sequences are interpreted as different meanings.
Examples, "C'est tout." and "Sept oeufs"
- Syntax Errors: Wrong syntaxing causes unexpected disarticulation in comprehension
Examples, "Eiffel Tour" (in stead of "Le Tour Eiffel" with Frence pronunciation) and "Et fais le tour"
C: Source Coding Related Issues (Logical Layers)
6) Quantum Semiotic Mechanism of Living Organism (Lorenz, Timbergen and Pavlov)
- Animal Behaviors
- Conditional Reflexes and Learning
- Reinterpretation of Pavlov's Differential Inhibition and the process of new sign-receptor by Somatic Hyper Mutation of B-Memory cell
- Reinterpretation of Pavlov's Mutual Induction : Positive Induction and Negative Induction
- Reinterpretation of Pavlov's Post-Brain-Surgery Loss of Conditional Reflexes
7) Dualism and Dichotomy of Nerve Cells and Immune Cells (N.K. Jerne)
- Life Logic of Dichotomy: A=B or A=(1-B), while B*(1-B)=0
- Life Logic of Dualism: A + B = C
8) Somatic Hypermutation of B-Lymphocyte and Complementarity Defining
Regions of B-Cell Receptors
- Molecular structure of B-Cell Receptors and Immunoglobulin-M
- Affinity Maturation of B-Lymphocyte and Somatic Hypermutation
D: Quantum Mechanics of Human Concepts, Grammars and Logical Concepts
(Hyopthesis)
9) Antigen-Antibody Responses and the Mechanism of Meanings

brain neocortex, but linguistic memories are not.

10) Unexpected Errors in Intercultural Communications
- Mechanism of Meaning explained as Conditional Reflexes
- Semantic Collision: a phonetic unit invoke totally different memories in different languages

11) Grammatical Coding Modulation is Procedural Memories in Linguistic Cortice of Broca and Wernicke Areas
- Grammars are protocols of Mono-Syllabic Modification (Addition and Conjugation) and corresponding Semantic Moduration.
- They are stored in Motor Areas of Prefrontal Cortex (Broca Area) and Sensory Area (Wernicke area)
- Agrammatical Aphasia and Difficulty in Complex Sentence Comprehension are caused by Broca Area Lesion
- Paragrammatical Aphasia is caused by Wernicke Area Lesion
12) Tracability and Transparence are required for Logical Concepts and Complex Information
- Definition of "Sign" and "Information": Signs which invoke reflexes. Information is an articulated signs in accordance with grammatical rules (or logical switches).
- Definition of "Complex Information" : Complex Information is Hypercomplex Polynominal Equation of Information.

Workshop 2: The Digital Linguistics: Human Language Analyzed as Digital Networked Automata
Description
The origin and the mechanism of human language have not yet been clarified. To make things more difficult, we have not established commonly shared definitions for "language", "grammar" and "concept".
The reasons for the difficulty and complexity of language are that the three major functions of language i.e. speech, listening and understanding are performed automatically as unconscious biophysical phenomena: three of them are automata.
The Speech automaton is a double articulation of conceptual words in accordance with grammatical concatenation and semantic modulation rules. This complex message of doubly articulated syllabic signals can be designated as information.
The Listening automaton is a transmission of digitally articulated syllabic signs over noisy channel, which assures error-free transfer of speech message and grammatical concatenation/modulation.
The Understanding automaton is based on the mechanism of conditional reflexes, which has not yet been identified but seems to be antigen-antibody and antibody-anteantibody responses by immune cells in the ventricular system and Cerebrospinal Fluid. (Re: The Generative Grammar of the Immune System (1984), by N.K. Jerne.)
All the above automata are based on discrete and finite phonetic units, syllables. Human beings acquired logical syllables to encode conceptual and grammatical words. This is the basis of Digital Linguistics.
In order to comprehend complex and sophisticated system, an interdisciplinary approach and an axiomatic thinking are required. In the interdisciplinary approach, the technical terms in various specialities such as linguistics, psychology, brain sciences, information theoreis, acoustic engineering, immunology, etc. should be united with reference to empirical existence and phenomena. The reference models such as "General Communication Model" of Claude E. Shannon and "OSI Reference Model in Computer Networks" should be used to clearly define interrelationship among complex entities and phenomena. We must be very careful in using terms: we must define terms as clear as possible in order to avoid unnecessary confusion.

Workshop 3: The impact of advanced Information Technology on human experience and industry competitiveness
Description
Revolving within the context of interaction sciences, this workshop focuses on the recent development of IT and its applications in the industry (including service sectors), as well as its impact on enhancing human experience and achieving market competitiveness in the recent turbulent economy. As technology is advancing rapidly in the modern world, IT tools have been a great asset for businesses (industrial and service sectors) to achieve economic competitiveness. Especially in the service sector, its application has also greatly resulted in enhancing human experience in regard to interaction, such as with the environment, systems, people, or even themselves.
To further benefit the participants, this workshop will include a number of case studies to illustrate how human/user experience has been enhanced through the latest application of IT in the industry and how it has helped the industry to achieve competitiveness. One particular highlight of this workshop is to assess how Auto-ID technology (such as Radio-frequency Identification) has improved our lives as consumers and assisted businesses to achieve greater operational efficiency.
The workshop tends to cover across different topics as per the call for papers, but predominantly on Topics 2 and 4. This workshop aims to bring together academic researchers, software engineers/developers as well as performance analysts from different disciplines in IT research to collectively:
? Share their advanced research/experience, so as to encourage wider spread of knowledge in this aspect of interaction sciences
? Demonstrate how the problem(s) in interaction sciences can be solved through their research conducted or tools developed
