     The 21st International Workshop on Nonmonotonic Reasoning (NMR)

         http://nmr.krportal.org/2023/

     September 2-4, 2023, Rhodes, Greece

========================================================================

NMR 2023 will be co-located with the 20th International Conference on 
Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR2023), 
https://kr.org/KR2023/.

NMR is the premier forum for results in the area of nonmonotonic 
reasoning. Its aim is to bring together active researchers in this broad 
field within knowledge representation and reasoning (KRR), including 
belief revision, uncertain reasoning, reasoning about actions, planning, 
logic programming, preferences, deontic reasoning, argumentation, 
causality, and many other related topics including systems and 
applications (see NMR page, https://nmr.cs.tu-dortmund.de/).

NMR has a long history - it started in 1984 and has been held every two 
years until 2020 and then every year. Recent previous NMR workshops were 
held in Haifa (2022), Hanoi (virtual, 2021), in Rhodes (virtual, 2020), 
Tempe (2018) and Cape Town (2016). Since 2020 NMR is being held 
annually. NMR workshops are usually co-located with the KR conferences 
(kr.org).

As in previous editions, NMR 2023 aims to foster connections between the 
different subareas of nonmonotonic reasoning and provide a forum for 
emerging topics. We especially invite papers on systems and 
applications, as well as position papers and papers addressing benchmark 
issues. The workshop will be structured by topical sessions fitting to 
the scopes of accepted papers.

The workshop will be held in Rhodes, Greece, in September 2-4, 2023. 
Workshop activities will include invited talks and presentations of 
technical papers.


-- Invited Speakers --

  * Diego Calvanese        Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy
  * Juha Kontinen          University of Helsinki, Finland
  * Anni-Yasmin Turhan     Dresden University of Technology, Germany

The talk by Anni-Yasmin Turhan is a joint keynote with DL 2023.

-- Submission Information --

  There are two types of submissions:

  ** Full papers **
Full papers should be at most 10 pages including references, figures and 
appendices, if any. Papers already published or accepted for publication 
at other conferences are also welcome, provided that the original 
publication is mentioned in a footnote on the first page and the 
submission at NMR falls within the authors’ rights. In the same vein, 
papers under review for other conferences can be submitted with a 
similar indication on their front page.

  ** Extended Abstracts **
Extended abstracts should be at most 3 pages. The abstracts should 
introduce work that has recently been published or is under review, or 
ongoing research at an advanced stage. We highly encourage attaching to 
the submission a preprint/postprint or a technical report. Such extra 
material will be read at the discretion of the reviewers. Submitting 
already published material may require a permission by the copyright holder.

All submissions should be formatted in CEUR style (2-column style) 
without enabled header and footer. The author kit can be found at 
http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip. Papers must be submitted in PDF 
only. Submission will be through the EasyChair conference system. Please 
submit via Easychair to:

      https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=nmr2023

-- Workshop Proceedings --

The accepted papers will be made in informal proceedings available 
electronically in the CEUR Workshop Proceedings series 
(http://ceur-ws.org/). The copyright of papers remains with the authors.

-- Student Grants --

A limited number of student grants will be made available, to support 
the students attending NMR 2023. Preference will be given to students 
that are going to present a paper at NMR and with limited access to 
funding. Details will be given on the NMR website.
