The Fifth International Symposium on INTEGRATED UNCERTAINTY in KNOWLEDGE
MODELLING and DECISION MAKING

http://www.jaist.ac.jp/IUKM/IUKM2016/

NOVEMBER 30 - DECEMBER 2, 2016, Da Nang, VIETNAM

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-The International Symposium on Integrated Uncertainty in Knowledge
Modelling
and Decision Making (IUKM) aims to provide a forum for exchanges of
research results, ideas for and experience of application among researchers
and
practitioners involved with all aspects of uncertainty management and
application.

Previous symposia have been successfully held in Ishikawa, Japan (IUM 2010
- AISC 68), Hangzhou, China (IUKM 2011 - LNAI 7027), Beijing, China (IUKM
2013 - LNAI 8032) and Nha Trang, Vietnam (IUKM 2015 - LNAI 9376). The fifth
IUKM (2016) will take place in the central coastal city of Da Nang, Vietnam,
during November 30 - December 2, 2016.

Da Nang is located on the Eastern Sea coast, midway between Hanoi and Ho Chi
Minh City and is the largest city of Central Vietnam. It is also in close
proximity to several UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the Imperial
City of Hue, the Old Town of Hoi An , and the archaeological site of My Son.
