CALL FOR PAPERS TWELFTH INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON NON-MONOTONIC REASONING (NMR 2008) (Collocated with KR 2008, CP 2008, ICAPS 2008) Sydney, Australia, September 13-15, 2008 http://www.nmr08.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * The NMR workshop series is the premier specialised forum for researchers in nonmonotonic reasoning and related areas. This will be the 12th workshop in the series. Its aim is to bring together active researchers in the broad area of nonmonotonic reasoning, including belief revision, reasoning about actions, planning, logic programming, argumentation, causality, probabilistic and possibilistic approaches to KR, and other related topics. Workshop activities include invited talks, tutorials, presentations of technical papers and special sessions. NMR 2008 will be composed of six specialised subworkshops: * Actions and Belief Change * Applications * Argument, Dialogue and Decision * Declarative Programming Paradigms and Systems for NMR * Preferences * Foundations of NMR and Uncertainty Information on the subworkshops may be accessed from the workshop home page. * Topics of Interest: NMR'08 welcomes the submission of papers broadly centred on issues and research in nonmonotonic reasoning. We welcome papers of either a theoretical or practical nature. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): foundations of non-monotonic reasoning, belief revision and information fusion, reasoning and decision-making under uncertainty, answer set programming, belief updating and inconsistency handling, default reasoning, similarity-based reasoning, empirical studies of reasoning strategies, representing actions and planning, argument-based nonmonotonic logics, abductive reasoning, algorithms and implementations, nonmonotonic logics in multiagent interaction, including negotiation and dispute resolution. * Important Dates NMR submission of papers: June 15, 2008 Acceptance decision by: July 15, 2008 Camera ready copy due: August 15, 2008 Conference dates: September 13-15, 2008 * Submission Requirements Papers should be submitted to the program chair of the appropriate subworkshop; if it is not clear which subworkshop is most appropriate, please submit directly to the workshop Program Chairs. Submissions are limited to 9 pages using KR style format. Details of how to submit papers can be found by following the links on the web page to each of the sessions. There will be one set of proceedings for all six subworkshops. * Format The NMR workshop is three days. Each subworkshop will occupy half a day or a full day, with two subworkshops running in parallel. * Conference Committee: Yannis Dimopoulos Cyprus Esra Erdem Turkey Alberto Finzi Italy Tomi Janhunen Finland Joao Leite Portugal Maurice Pagnucco Australia (Co-Chair) Sebastian Sardina Australia Eugenia Ternovska Canada Michael Thielscher Germany (Co-Chair) Hans Tompits Austria Gerard Vreeswijk Netherlands Kewen Wang Australia Frank Wolter U.K. Dongmo Zhang Australia |
