[PlanetKR] CFP ICAART 2012 - Agents and Artificial Intelligence

[Mary-Anne Williams]

ICAART (4th International Conference on Agents and Artificial Intelligence -
http://www.icaart.org/) has an open call for papers, whose deadline is set
for July 28, 2011. We hope you can participate in this conference by
submitting a paper reflecting your current research in any of the following
areas:
- Artificial Intelligence
- Agents

The conference will be sponsored by the Institute for Systems and
Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC) and held in
cooperation with the Portuguese Association for Artificial Intelligence
(APPIA), the Spanish Association for Artificial Intelligence (AEPIA) and the
Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI). INSTICC
is member of the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA), Workflow
Management Coalition (WfMC) and the Object Management Group (OMG).

ICAART would like to become a major point of contact between researchers,
engineers and practitioners interested in the theory and applications in
these areas. BVTJ
Informatics applications are pervasive in many areas of Artificial
Intelligence and Distributed AI, including Agents and Multi-Agent Systems.
This conference intends to emphasize this connection, therefore, authors are
invited to highlight the benefits of Information Technology (IT) in these
areas. Ideas on how to solve problems using agents and artificial
intelligence, both in R&D and industrial applications, are welcome. Papers
describing advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques and general
survey papers indicating future directions are also encouraged.

The conference program features a number of Keynote Lectures to be delivered
by distinguished world-class researchers, including:

Luis Paulo Reis, University of Porto, Portugal
Anthony G. Cohn, University of Leeds, U.K.
Wolfgang Wahlster, German Research Center for AI, Germany
Frank Dignum, Utrecht University, The Netherlands
Helder Coelho, University of Lisbon, Portugal


All accepted papers (full, short and posters) will be published in the
conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM
support.
A short list of presented papers will be selected so that revised and
extended versions of these papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in a
CCIS Series book.
A short list of papers will be selected for publication in a special issue
of JOPHA - Journal of Physical Agents.
The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters
Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP and Elsevier Index
(EI).

Best paper awards will be distributed during the conference closing session.
Please check the website for further information (
http://www.icaart.org/best_paper_awards.asp).

All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the
SciTePress Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/).
SciTePress is member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/).

We also would like to highlight the possibility to submit to the following
Satellite Workshop - the 2nd International Workshop on Semantic
Interoperability (IWSI)

Workshops, Special sessions as well as tutorials dedicated to other
technical/scientific topics are also envisaged: companies interested in
presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding
a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat. Workshop
chairs and Special Session chairs will benefit from logistics support and
other types of support, including secretariat and financial support, to
facilitate the development of a valid idea.

Please check further details at the ICAART conference website (
http://www.icaart.org).
Should you have any question please don't hesitate contacting me.

ICAART 2012 will be held in conjunction with ICPRAM (http://www.icpram.org/)
and ICORES 2012 (http://www.icores.org/) in Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal.
Registration to ICAART will enable free access to the ICPRAM and ICORES
conferences (as a non-speaker).
