Scientific Chinese Civilization: A Great Trinity of A Grand Challenging Research Project



“Those Who Cannot Remember The Past Are Condemned To Repeat It”
----------------George Santayana

The Journal of New Mathematics & Natural Computing, published by WSPC,
ISSN:1793-0057 [print] and ISSN:1793-7027 [electronic], is pleased to announce a CFP, Call For Papers, on the topic entitled :

Scientific Chinese Civilization: A Great Trinity of A Grand Challenging Research Project

More than half a century of intensive research on artificial intelligence (AI) has concluded that the problem of linguistics must be solved before we can make any progress in truly intelligent systems, AI research today has been forced to reduce merely to deal with some basic issues such as the data mining and web semantics. Chinese language must take the advantage of what we have already learned from that of English language so far as the CWW (Computing With Words) is concerned, especially the implications of those fundamental theory of Noam Chomsky & Claude Shannon introduced in the 1950s. We claim the CWW issue of Scientific Chinese language, in reality, is the foundation of a much larger problem of Scientific Chinese Civilization. The enclosed write-up by Zhaohao Sun and Paul P. Wang provides much needed background, motivation and, at least, our version of the definition of the Grand Challenge.

This Special Issue (SI) has been quite loosely defined because we need all participants to contribute in even the very basic definitions. One thing we are certain of is the importance and the urging nature of the issue. Even though there are no lack of efforts in terms of the interested scholars and their associations. Frankly, we feel, overall speaking, the lack of urgency and lay back attitude have prevented them from significant gains over all these years.

As pointed out by Sun and Wang, numerous reforms of the Chinese Language have led to good results. The painful evolutionary history of the Chinese language, nevertheless, made it clear the need of some dramatically reform, especially the computer and information revolution are here to stay and we must have some strategy for the development which begins with Scientific Chinese Words reform for the benefit of future generations.

There are estimated to have 1.4 billion people who use Chinese language, a 10,000 specialists research Institute would consume only 0.00071428% of the total human resource! Yet the benefit and the impact derived from this Institute can be really huge! Therefore, this CFP is very much a document of an urge, a pleading, nearly a manifesto!

In addition to the 26 items outlined in Sun and Wang's write -up, you may suggest the favorable topics you think are important, such as some suggested items listed as follows:

27. Historical evolution of a long surviving language and how to reform for future need.

28. How a 1,000 specialists research Institute can be funded.

29. How can such a Grand Challenge be entirely free from political complication?

30. A comparative study on the benefit of this Grand Challenge.
