(For the KR 2020 web site see https://kr2020.inf.unibz.it/ and for the 
KR 2020 CFP see https://kr2020.inf.unibz.it/page/call_for_papers.)


We invite submissions of abstracts of papers previously published in 
journals and conference proceedings for the Recent Published Research 
Track. The track is designed to provide a forum to discuss recent 
research on topics related to KR that may not be immediately familiar or 
easily accessible to the KR community. The track seeks papers that fall 
into one or both of the following two categories:


1) Papers that
-- connect KR to other areas of AI and to other areas of computer 
science such as database theory, game theory, social choice, logic and 
philosophy;
-- connect KR to areas that make use of KR, such as multi-agent systems, 
planning, natural language understanding; or

-- go beyond the commonly-understood boundaries of KR.

2) Papers that are strongly related to KR and
-- have been published in journals but have not been presented at 
workshops or conferences;
-- have been presented at workshops or conferences that are not 
typically attended by the KR community; or
-- have been accepted at general high-profile AI conferences such as 
IJCAI, ECAI, or AAAI, where the time allotted has not allowed for full 
discussion of all key aspects of the paper.


SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

Authors should supply the following materials:

-- A cover page (single page) listing the title, the authors, a full 
reference to the original paper, and a public or privately accessible 
url from which the paper can be downloaded.


-- A one-page (preferred) and no more than two-page extended abstract of 
the paper following the format for regular paper KR 2020 submissions. 
The abstract should present the main contributions of the paper, discuss 
the relevance of the paper to KR, and explain the significance of the 
results.


A single pdf file with the materials should be submitted to the KR 
submission site at EasyChair:


https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=kr2020.

The authors should mark the submission as Recent Published Research.

Submissions must meet the following criteria:

a. Candidate papers must have been published in a journal or a 
conference proceedings in 2018 or later.
b. Papers that are in press may be submitted as long as the final 
camera-ready version is available.
c. Extensions of papers that have been previously presented at a KR 
conference are not eligible for this track.


Extended abstracts of the accepted papers will be linked from the 
conference web site.


Authors of accepted papers will present their work, focussing on its 
significance and relevance to KR. Significant time will be allocated for 
discussion of the interdisciplinary aspects of the work and its 
potential impact on the future research opportunities for KR.


For any questions regarding suitability of a submission or of any other 
aspect of the track, please email the special track program co-chairs:

[Hol-info] 2nd Call for Workshop Proposals - The 36th International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP2020)

2020-03-29 Thread Laura Pandolfo

   *** CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS ***

  ICLP 2020

   36th International Conference on Logic Programming

    September 18 - September 24, 2020
  University of Calabria, Rende, Italy

   https://iclp2020.unical.it

/*NOTE ABOUT COVID-19: We will follow advice from the ICLP2020 //
//organizers on the situation, and we will revise our workshop //
//timeline and other procedures accordingly if needed.*/

ICLP 2020, the 36th International Conference on Logic Programming,
will be held at the University of Calabria, Rende, Italy, from
September 18 to September 24, 2020.

The ICLP conference series has a long standing tradition of hosting
a rich set of co-located workshops. ICLP workshops provide a unique
opportunity for the presentation and discussion of work that can be
preliminary in nature, novel ideas, and new open problems to a wide
and interested audience.

Co-located workshops also provide an opportunity for presenting
specialized topics and opportunities for intensive discussions and
project collaboration. The topics of the workshops co-located with
ICLP 2020 can cover any areas related to logic programming (e.g.,
theory, implementation, environments, language issues, alternative
paradigms, applications), including cross-disciplinary areas. However,
any relevant workshop proposal will be considered.

The format of the workshop will be decided by the workshop organizers,
but ample time should be allowed for general discussion. Workshops can
vary in length, but the optimal duration will be half a day or a full
day.

Workshop Proposal:
==
Those interested in organizing a workshop at ICLP 2020 are invited to
submit a workshop proposal. Proposals should be in English and about
two pages in length. They should contain:

 * The title of the workshop.
 * A brief technical description of the topics covered by the workshop.
 * A discussion of the timeliness and relevance of the workshop.
 * A list of some related workshops held in the last years.
 * The estimated length of the workshop and an estimate of the number
   of expected attendees.
 * The names, affiliation and contact details (email, web page,
   phone) of the workshop organizers together with a designated
   contact person.
 * Previous experience of the workshop organizers in
   workshop/conference organization.

Proposals are expected in text or PDF format. All proposals should be
submitted to the Workshop Chair by email by April 13, 2020.

Reviewing Process:
==
Each submitted proposal will be reviewed by the Workshop, Program and
General Chairs. Proposals that appear well-organized and that fit the
goals and scope of ICLP will be selected. The decision will be
notified by email to the responsible organizer by April 27, 2020.

The definitive length of the workshop will be planned according to the
number of submissions received by the different workshops. For every
accepted workshop, the ICLP local organizers will prepare a meeting
room. The workshops and the conference organizers will collaborate in
establishing a uniform approach to produce proficient and accessible
proceedings for the workshops.

Workshop Organizers' Tasks:
===
 * Producing a "Call for Papers" for the workshop and posting it
   on the Internet and other means. A web page URL should be provided
   by May 25, 2020, and will be published on the ICLP 2020 home page.
 * Providing a brief description of the workshop for the conference
   program.
 * Reviewing/accepting submitted papers.
