AIMS AND SCOPE

 The NMR workshop series is the premier specialized forum for researchers in
 non-monotonic reasoning and related areas. This will be the 14th workshop
in
 the series. Its aim is to bring together active researchers in the broad
area
 of non-monotonic reasoning, including belief revision, reasoning about
 actions, argumentation, declarative programming, preferences, non-monotonic
 reasoning for ontologies, uncertainty, and other related topics.

 In this year, NMR will share a joint session together with the
International
 Workshop on Description Logics (DL 2012).


TOPICS

 NMR 2012 welcomes the submission of papers broadly centered on issues and
 research in non-monotonic reasoning. We welcome papers of either a
 theoretical or practical nature. Topics of interest include (but are not
 limited to):
 - abductive reasoning and diagnosis
 - algorithms and complexity analysis
 - argumentation and argument-based non-monotonic logics
 - answer set programming,
 - belief revision and information fusion
 - belief updating and inconsistency handling
 - declarative programming for non-monotonic reasoning
 - default reasoning
 - empirical studies of reasoning strategies
 - foundations of non-monotonic reasoning
 - hybrid approaches (nonmonotonic reasoning combined with
   other computing paradigms)
 - implementations and systems
 - non-monotonic logics in multi-agent interaction, including
   negotiation and dispute resolution
 - non-monotonic reasoning for ontologies
 - reasoning and decision-making under uncertainty
 - reasoning with preferences
 - representing actions and planning
 - similarity-based reasoning


SUBMISSIONS

 Papers must describe original research and should not exceed 9 pages
 in AAAI style (http://www.aaai.org/**Publications/Author/author.php<http://www.aaai.org/Publications/Author/author.php>
**)
 including references, figures, and appendixes if any.

 The best paper among the ones written solely by students (i.e. persons
 not holding a PhD as of February 28th, 2012) will be awarded a prize of
 400 Euros. Authors of such papers are requested to indicate their
 eligibility upon submission at Easychair.
 Short Papers (max. 4 pages) presenting implemented systems related to NMR
 are also welcome!

 Paper submission will be handled electronically by means of the
 Easychair system. Papers must be submitted in PDF only.
 The submission page is available at

 http://www.easychair.org/**conferences/?conf=nmr2012<http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=nmr2012>

 NMR does not ask authors to sign over the copyright of their papers.
 Copyright therefore lies with the authors, and as far as NMR is concerned,
 they are free to submit to other conferences and workshops as well.
