EIGHTH INTERNATIONAL JOINT CONFERENCE
ON
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (IJCAI-83)
Karlsruhe, West Germany
8-12 August 1983
CALL FOR PAPERS
The IJCAI conferences are the main forum for the presentation
of Artificial Intelligence research to an international audience.
The goal of IJCAI-83 is to promote scientific interchange, within
and between all subfields of Artificial Intelligence, among
researchers from all over the world. The conference is sponsored
by International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence,
Inc., and co-sponsored by Gesellschaft fuer Informatik (West Ger-
many), the Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and
the Simulation of Behaviour (Britain), and Nederlandse Vereniging
voor Kunstmatige Intelligentie (The Netherlands).
Papers concerning all aspects of Artificial Intelligence will
be considered including (but not limited to) the subfields listed
below. Complete drafts, in English, should be received by the
programme chairman by 1st February, 1983. Final versions of
accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings.
Papers are invited in one of the following categories:
- Long Papers (max length 5500 words, the equivalent of 11-12
single spaced pages. 7 proceedings pages will be allocated and
30 minutes presentation) For the presentation of well-
developed, original and significant new research as well as for
works of synthesis. Note that it is our intention to encourage
the submission of excellent papers in this category. Refereeing
standards will be strict and only papers of high quality will
be accepted.
- Short Papers (max length 2250 words, the equivalent of 5 single
spaced pages. 3 proceedings pages will be allocated and 15 minutes
presentation) For brief presentation of research and for
reports of work in progress. Note that, in order to encourage
submission in this category, the max length is slightly longer
than here-to-fore.
Papers in both categories ppages will be refereed. Papers not in
English, or which miss the 1st February deadline, or which exceed
the maximum length for their category, will be returned unre-
fereed. It is expected that at least one author of every accepted
paper will attend.
The refereeing and the sessions will be organised around the
following subfields:
Automatic Programming.
Cognitive Modelling;
Expert Systems;
Knowledge Representation;
Learning and Knowledge Acquisition;
Logic Programming;
Natural Language;
Planning and Search;
Robotics;
System Support;
Theorem Proving;
Vision.
In order to ensure that papers are appropriately refereed and that
they appear in appropriate sessions, authors are requested to
express a preference for one or more of these subfields. If this
is not possible then please specify a new subfield.
In addition to the contributed papers, the programme will
include several invited papers, panel discussions, and special
interest sessions. Suggestions for these should be sent to the
programme chairman.
The conference will also include program demonstrations and
exhibits. Submissions and requests in these categories should be
directed to the local arrangements chairmen. Program demonstra-
tions will not be refereed.
