October 24-27, 2011 • Burlingame, CA • Rules Fest 2011 *Calling all /developers, engineers, programmers, and architects/ who use reasoning technologies to build products and services* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rules Fest Announces *Dr. Andrew Ng, Director of the Artificial Intelligence Lab at Stanford* & an expert in Machine Learning will round out the 2011 Rules Fest Conference Agenda ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rules Fest, the /International Conference on Reasoning Technologies/, was established 3 years ago to present a technical forum by developers, for developers ... the people who are chartered with /computational reasoning/, the most applied category of artificial intelligence, to further technology development. Given the exhilarating, and sometimes frightening, pace with which technology evolves and its fickle and unpredictable propensity to do so, Rules Fest has diversified its technology portfolio to include powering the semantic web, controlling autonomous agents, and adding intelligence to a myriad of mobile apps. In addition, cloud-based technology offers a value not previously available in the history of computing: data and mechanics are ever-more accessible to developers, making the cloud more practical and efficient. These topics will be presented and discussed -- formally and socially -- at the Rules Fest 2011 conference. *Rules Fest attendees develop Apps That Think.™* /Are you one of us?/ We invite you to join the Rules Fest Community <mailto:brenda@visionartscommunications.com?subject=Join%20Rules%20Fest%20Community&body=Please%20add%20me%20to%20your%20communications%20distributions.%0A%0AMy%20company%20is%3A%0A%0AMy%20title%20is%3A>: the developers, inventors and managers <http://cts.vresp.com/c/?VisionArtsCommunicat/f913bd11ad/11698b4526/255f7c... responsible for delivering the innovation and technology that keeps moving the ball forward.
