Presentation

Interaction among knowledge systems is the new paradigm for constructing the future society of intelligent agents. People, machines, and organizations are more and more interacting together by means of modern Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The social nature of interaction and communication processes themselves needs to be recognized and addressed as such, if we want this pervading technology to be effective and ultimately of benefit for the society.

The Interdisciplinary Laboratory on Interacting Knowledge Systems
(ILIKS) is an "European Joint Laboratory" (Laboratoire Européen Associé or LEA), an initiative of the French Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) which will study the theoretical foundations of interaction under a strongly interdisciplinary approach, by developing rigorous models grounded on Cognitive Science, Linguistics, Philosophy, Economy, as well as Logics and Computer Science. Although mainly theoretical in nature, such an approach will also have a profound impact on ICT applications, precisely because of its generality; indeed the need of such generality emerges clearly from the applied projects where the partners of this proposal are involved.

Scientific Programme

ILIKS is currently organized in 4 thematic areas:

  • Cognitive agents, mental attitudes, decisions, actions and plans;
  • Social relationships, game-theoretical interaction, collective agents and organizations, services;
  • Linguistic Interaction;
  • Lexical and knowledge resources.
