From: Duvvuru.Sriram@cmu-ri-cive.arpa CALL FOR PAPERS FIRST INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON APPLICATIONS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO ENGINEERING PROBLEMS (AIEP) The purpose of this conference is to provide a forum for engineers all over the world to present their work on the applications of artificial intelligence to engineering problems. The conference will be held from April 15-18 1986 at Southampton University, England and will be preceeded by tutorials in Expert systems and Robotics. CONFERENCE THEMES The following topics are suggested and other related areas will be considered. - Computer-aided design - Computer-based training - Planning and Scheduling - Constraint Management - Intelligent Tutors - Expert systems - Knowledge representation - Learning - Natural language applications - Cognitive modelling of engineering problems - Robotics - Database interfaces - Graphical interfaces - Knowledge-based simulation - Design Modelling CALL FOR PAPERS Authors are invited to submit three copies of a 500 word abstract. The abstract should have enough details to permit careful evaluation by a committee consisting of renowed experts in the field. The abstracts should be accompained with the following details: - Authors' address, name, affliation. Indicate the person to address all correspondence. - The branch of engineering. If the paper addresses engineering in general, then should be categorized under GENERAL DESIGN. - The topic area.
