[PlanetKR] KI 2019 --- Deadline Extension

[Heiner Stuckenschmidt]

Due to several requests and in order to allow people to consider 
submitting rejected ACL Papers, we have decided to slightly extend the 
deadline of the German conference on Artificial Intelligence. The new 
schedule for submission is:

Important Dates (deadline extension)

*May 19: Paper registration in EasyChair**
**May 24: Paper submission*
Jun 28: Notifications
Jul 12: Final versions

Further, we want to highlight the possibility for authors of accepted 
papers that are still students to apply for travel grants generously 
provided by SAP.

>
> Full technical papers (12 pages max., excluding references) are 
> expected to report on new research that makes a substantial technical 
> contribution to the field. Additional details may be included in an 
> appendix, which, however, will be read at the discretion of the PC.
> Technical communications (6 pages max., excluding references) can 
> report on research in progress or other issues of interest to the AI 
> community. Examples of work suitable for technical communication paper 
> submissions include: novel ideas whose scope is not large enough for a 
> full paper; important implementation techniques; novel interesting 
> benchmark problems; short experimental studies; interesting 
> applications that are not yet completely solved or analyzed; position 
> or challenge papers. Technical communication submissions are 
> especially invited for software demonstration or PhD work in progress.
> Abstracts of papers accepted at (most recent editions of) major AI 
> conferences (3 pages max., excluding references) are welcome to bring 
> together German members of the international AI community. Abstracts 
> of accepted papers will be evaluated based on the ranking of the venue 
> it has been accepted for. We especially invite abstract of papers from 
> A or A* ranked AI conferences.
> Submission will be through the EasyChair conference management system.
>
> Full papers and technical communications will be subject to blind peer 
> review based on the standard criteria of relevance, significance of 
> results, originality of ideas, soundness, and quality of the 
> presentation. Papers accepted in this process will be published in the 
> main conference proceedings, published by Springer in the LNAI series  
> and will be presented at the conference. At least one author of each 
> accepted paper must register for the conference and present the 
> contribution. The 3 page paper abstracts will be bundled and included 
> in an preface or appendix section of the conference proceedings.
