    JELIA 2002 - Deadline extensons for the special session devoted
    to presentatoins of AI systems.

    *****************************************
    ** OUR APOLOGIES FOR MULTIPLE MAILINGS **

    The submission deadline is extended to: May 28.
    The authors will be notified about the decision by: June 6.

    Detailed call for submissions follows:

    JELIA'02: Call for System Presentations

    Aim and Scope

    Recent years have resulted in several exciting developments in the
    field of AI. High on the list is the emergence of implemented
    effective AI systems. The organizers strongly believe that the area of
    AI will be further advanced if implemented systems receive appropriate
    exposure, implementation and testing methodologies are discussed by
    the community, and if the performance and scope of applicability are
    presented and compared. In this way, theoretical research in AI will
    receive important feedback about its relevance and practicality,
    system implementers will learn about competing solutions and their
    performance, and AI experts working on practical applications will get
    software tools they need.

    To further promote this research, as part of the technical program of
    JELIA'02 we plan a special session devoted to presentations and
    demonstrations of implementations for solving or addressing problems
    of importance to all areas in the scope of JELIA'02 and, in particular,
    to:

         Logic-based AI
         Knowledge Representation
         Learning
         Data Mining
         Multiagent Systems
         Reasoning under Uncertainty

    Submissions to this special session should provide a description of
    such a system and information on the class of problems (or application
    area) it is designed for, theoretical background, major features,
    implementation techniques, and testing methodology and experimental
    evaluation.

    Accepted system descriptions will be published in the conference
    proceedings (4 page length limit).

    All systems whose descriptions will be accepted for publication in the
    conference proceedings, will be demonstrated at a special session at
    the conference. The authors should indicate as part of their
    submission
    if any special computing support will be necessary.

    Co-Chairs

    Gerald Pfeifer <pfeifer@dbai.tuwien.ac.at>
    Mirek Truszczynski <mirek@cs.uky.edu>

    Submission Details

    The authors should submit a system description in Postscript format to
    the organizers of the systems session at
    <jelia02-systems@dbai.tuwien.ac.at> by May 28, 2002 (revised deadline).

    The system description must be formatted according to the Springer
    LNCS/LNAI authors' instructions and cannot exceed 4 pages (all
    included). Instructions by Springer can be found at
    http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.

    Important Dates

     Submission deadline (REVISED)
                             May 28, 2002
     Acceptance/rejection notification (REVISED)
                              June 6, 2002
     Final version due
                             June 25, 2002

    Benchmark Sets

    An important issue for development of effective AI systems is that of
    benchmarks. Benchmark problems allow us to compare key features of AI
    systems: the range of their applicability and their performance.
    Therefore, we invite you to submit statements of problems for possible
    inclusion in benchmark sets. These benchmark sets will be distributed
    to all participants of the systems session.

    Proposals for benchmarks should be submitted by e-mail by May 28, to
    the systems session organizers at <jelia02-systems@dbai.tuwien.ac.at>.

    About JELIA and JELIA'02

    The European Conference on Logics in AI provides a major biennial
    forum for the discussion of logic-oriented approaches to artificial
    intelligence. It aims to bring together active researchers interested
    in all aspects concerning the use of logics in artificial intelligence
    to discuss current research, results, and problems and applications of
    both a theoretical and practical nature. Moreover, JELIA strives to
    foster links and facilitate cross-fertilisation of ideas among
    researchers from various disciplines; among researchers from
    academia, industry and government; and between theoreticians and
    practitioners.

    JELIA'02 will be held at the University of Calabria (Rende), in the
    area of Cosenza, southern Italy.
