This conference is intended to be a vehicle for ideas and information to be exchanged concerning all aspects of communications including linguistics, culture, gender, race, class, and globalization. It is not required that your research be in aviation. It is only necessary that your work is transferable to aviation situations in cockpits, between cockpit and tower, maintenance operations, human-machine interface, etc. Optimal communication is often problematic because of gender, racial, cultural, linguistic, economic, political, etc. assumptions hidden behind standard procedures. Please note that this conference will be an outstanding opportunity for industry, government, and other funding sources to make direct contact with researchers. Some suggested areas: Human Factors Language Studies Barriers to Communications Communication Studies Intercultural Communications English as a Second Language Technology and Culture Studies Science and Technology Studies Risk and Technology Politics of Technical Decisions Cybernetic Communication Political Psychology of Communication Language/communication models of terrorism,intelligence,organized crime,foreign policy, and security Globalization of language/communication ***There may be other areas which are applicable; the above are only suggestions.

(Regisitration fees received after Mar. 7, will be $100 and $200 for academic and industry attendees, respectively.) The registration fee will cover banquet dinner, lunches, and refreshments; as well as a copy of the published proceedings.
