(Please check often for regular updates) The overall objective of this 
workshop is to study open questions within the philosophy of information 
and information processing, with an emphasis on the value of observed 
information and its measurement. Interest in the philosophy, meaning and 
value of information goes back half a century but has rapidly increased 
recently with many new directions of research into the meaning, 
quantification and measures of information and its complexity. Theoretic 
advances in these directions will have a huge impact on a wide range of 
real world applications. Call for Paper Submissions Please submit papers 
to info-metrics@american.edu with subject line "PIIP 2015 Submission" 
Submission should include at least an extended abstract (2000 words or 
more) or preferably a draft paper. Please do not submit any paper that has 
been published or is under review by another venue. Submission Deadline: 
September 15, 2014 by 23:59 (PDT).
