On 24-26 September 2014, in Warsaw, Poland, the 7th IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Systems (IEEE-IS'2014) will be held.
Building upon the success of IS’02, IS’04, IS’8 (held in Varna, Bulgaria), IS’06, IS’10 (held in London, UK), and IS'12 (held in Sofia, Bulgaria) the 7th IEEE-IS'2014 shall continue the tradition of bringing together top specialists in the broad area of intelligent systems. This forum is an opportunity for scientists from all over the world to share ideas and achievements in the theory and practice of intelligent control, artificial intelligence, decision support systems, neural networks, soft computing, data mining and knowledge discovery, ontologies, machine learning, intelligent measurement, etc. Presentations should highlight contemporary intelligent systems as a concept that combines theoretical research and applications in automation, information technologies and measurement. All aspects of intelligent systems are of interest: theory, algorithms, tools, applications, etc.
In addition to the main sessions, the conference timetable shall be concerted with several other symposiums, workshops, poster sessions, tutorial courses, etc., in similar scopes, which will take place before, during and after the end of the IEEE IS’14.

On 9-10 September 2012, in Sofia, Bulgaria, the Sixteenth annual International Conference on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets (ICIFS'2012) will be held.
The aim of the conference is to gather specialists interested in intuitionistic fuzziness and to give them floor for discussions on theoretical and practical aspects of this relatively new area of fuzzy set theory.
All theoretical and applied results related to intuitionistic fuzziness are welcome.

On 16 October 2009, in Warsaw, Poland, the Eighth International Workshop on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets and Generalized Nets (IWIFSGN'2009) to be held on annual basis in Warsaw, Poland.
Similarly to its predecessors it will mainly focus on new developments in foundations and applications of intuitionistic fuzzy sets and generalized nets. However, other topics related to broadly perceived representation and processing of uncertain and imprecise information and knowledge, and intelligent systems will be discussed, too.

The three-year bilateral project "Design and Development of Intuitionistic Fuzzy Logic Tools in Information Technologies" between Centre of Biomedical Engineeering, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences and Vellalar College for Women, was approved and funded. The project is focused on:
- Research of the properties of IFS of second and n-th type.
- Research of implications and negations.
- Development of software for checking the properties of IF implications and negations.
- Applications of IFS in the field of pattern recognition.
- Elaboration of a methodology for teaching IFS and development of learning content.
- Provision of access to publications on IFS, writing Ifigenia articles in the area of IFS.
The project implementation can be traced from its page in Ifigenia.

Two projects proposals concerning generalized nets were today handed at the Bulgarian National Science Fund. One of them, called Software Implementation of Generalized Nets in Intelligent Systems (SIGNIS), involved 40 participants from 7 partnering institutions and 3 foreign associated partners and applied for funding totaling to EUR 280 000 for a three year period. The proposal was elaborated on the pages of Ifigenia. The other project proposal involved 10 participants from 3 partnering institutions and applied for funding of EUR 120 000 for a three year period.
Results of both project proposals are expected to be announced in the end of October 2009.

On August 20-24, 2009, the 2009 FUZZ-IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems will take place in Jeju Island, Korea. We intend to submit a proposal for a Special Session on "Atanassov's Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets: Recent Advances" as part of the Conference. Therefore, given your expertise in this area and its applications, you are kindly invited to express you interest in participating in this special session, by sending a preliminary title of your work before 1 December 2008, which will be used for filling in our proposal for the Special Session.

Book "Generalized Net Models of the Human Body" by Krassimir Atanassov, Anthony Shannon, Vihren Chakarov and Joseph Sorsich was released out of press on 5 November 2008. The book contains a series of generalized nets models which can be used for simulation of various processes and situations in the human body with the aim of using the information obtained in the process of medical diagnosis and research, and for the training and examination of students.

- Seventh International Workshop on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets and Generalized Nets
IWIFSGN'2008, similarly as its predecessors, mainly focused on the new developments in foundations and applications of intuitionistic fuzzy sets and generalized nets. The workshop was held on October 17, 2008 in Warsaw, Poland, at the Systems Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences. The Workshop included plenary talks by leading experts in the fields, and technical contributions.
During the workshop, Ifigenia.org was officially presented and launched.

Recent changes necessitated the return to a more restrictive policy towards user registration and editing. This decision is taken to improve the quality of functioning and maintenance of Ifigenia and will not affect users' rights to access the pages for reading.
If you would like to register and contribute to Ifigenia, please, send an email to the website administrator with information about your real name and affiliation to a research institution. Registration requests may be denied or postponed, if considered inappropriate or spam. If your request is considered eligible, a new account will be created under your real name and you will receive a temporary password that can be changed from the Preferences page, once you log in.

Due to the current low users' activity on Ifigenia, change is made in the registration scheme. Registration is now open, no need to ask for admin help. Please, create your user account with your User name = Personal Name (have in mind that wiki is case-sensitive!)
In the meanwhile, Ifigenia rankings improve over time. As of today, Google ranks the site on 1st place by search term ifigenia, on 75th place by search term generalized nets and on 149th place by search term intuitionistic fuzzy sets. We score well and we'll be better!
