CALL FOR PAPERS
*** KR 2010 ***
Twelfth International Conference on Principles of
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning
Toronto, Canada, May 9-13, 2010
Collocated with AAMAS-10, NMR-10, ICAPS-10, FOIS-10 (all in Toronto)
and DL 2010 (in Waterloo)
Website: http://kr.org/KR2010/
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR&R) is a vibrant and
exciting field of human endeavour. KR&R techniques are key drivers of
innovation in computer science, and they have led to significant
advances in practical applications in a wide range of areas from
Artificial Intelligence to Software Engineering.
Explicit representations of knowledge manipulated by reasoning engines
are an integral and crucial component of intelligent systems. Semantic
web technologies, the design of software agents and bio-Informatics
technologies, in particular, provide significant challenges for KR&R.
We intend KR2010 to be a forum for the exchange of new ideas, issues,
and results among the community of researchers in the principles and
practices of KR&R systems. We encourage papers presenting substantial
new results in the principles of KR&R systems that clearly contribute
to the formal foundations or show the applicability of the results to
implemented or implementable systems. We also encourage "reports from
the field" of applications, experiments, developments, and tests. Such
papers should be explicitly identified as reports from the field by
the authors, to ensure appropriate reviewing, and must include a
section on evaluation.
For the first time, KR will be collocated with AAMAS, and a joint
technical session is planned. We thus encourage papers that are
relevant to both KR&R and Multi Agent Systems.
As in KR 2008, we will run a *Doctoral Consortium* to introduce
students to senior researchers with similar research
interests. Participating students will be able to apply for grants to
partly cover their travel expenses. For more information, visit
Doctoral Consortium Web page:
http://www.scm.uws.edu.au/%7Eyan/KR10-DC.html

KR 2010 Important Dates
* Submission of title and abstract: November 20, 2009
* Paper submission deadline: November 30, 2009
* Notification of acceptance: January 17, 2010
* Camera-ready papers due: February 22, 2010
* KR 2010 Conference: May 9-13, 2010
Submission information:
Papers must be submitted in AAAI style and in PDF only (the conference
proceedings will be published by the AAAI Press). Submissions are not
anonymous. The maximum length of a submission is 7 pages including
references, figures, and appendixes if any. Submissions of more than 7
pages will *not* be reviewed! A paper must be submitted on EASYCHAIR
via the following URL:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=kr10
A paper must be first registered with a title, abstract, and author
information by November 20, 2009, and the PDF file of the paper must
be uploaded by November 30, 2009. The final paper acceptance
notifications will be sent out by January 17. There is no author
rebuttal to reviews. However, if a reviewer considers that a
clarification about the paper is needed, a request for clarifications
will be sent to the corresponding author by email, and the authors
will have at least 72 hours to respond to such requests.
Accepted papers will be allotted 11 pages in the proceedings.
