using granules such as classes, clusters, subsets, groups and intervals to
build an efficient computational model for complex applications with
huge amounts of data, information and knowledge. 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.
will provide opportunities for technical collaboration beyond that of previous conferences. The four conferences will have a joint opening, keynote, reception, and banquet
