Summary on Grant Application Form
Diagrams 2004 is the third joint international conference on the theory and application of diagrams. The first of these was held in Edinburgh, with EPSRC support, and the second in Atlanta Georgia, with support from several US funding agencies. This series was created by the chairs of several previous series: Diagrammatic Reasoning, Theory of Visual Languages, Thinking with Diagrams, and Formal Reasoning with Visual and Diagrammatic Representations. The joint series is the leading worldwide venue for this topic, which provides both mathematical and cognitive science underpinnings for many central topics in human-computer interaction, design, visualisation and multimedia. It also continues to attract attendance from disciplines that would not normally engage with those fields, including education, architecture, and other applied disciplines. It is highly unusual in being highly theorybased, while also making a serious effort at disciplinary inclusiveness, dissemination, education of newcomers, and application relevance. Although very successful, the specialist and challenging nature of the conference makes it difficult to achieve financial self-sufficiency. We therefore request contributory support from EPSRC, allowing students and delegates from non-technology disciplines to attend.
