========================================================================
EPIA 2009 - 14th PORTUGUESE CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
October 12-15, Universidade de Aveiro, Portugal
THEMATIC TRACK: COLA - COmputational Logic with Applications
========================================================================
The integration of new complex intelligent systems requires more and
more sound and appropriate foundations and tools, resulting in new
problems and challenges for the computational logic practitioners.
Computational logic has been widely used in complex applications in
important areas such as the Deductive Databases, Natural Language
Processing and Program Analysis, and more recently on the Semantic Web
and related Web Tools. These novel applications have exposed the
limits of existing approaches, showing the need for research on better
languages and more sophisticated implementations of reasoning systems.
The COLA thematic track of EPIA 2009 covers the broad area of
Computational Logic and its applications, with special interest on
topics related with new formalisms, environments, and applications. A
list of non-exhaustive topics is:
Program Analysis, Program Transformation, Validation and
Verification, Debugging, Profiling.
Implementation of reasoning systems, in particular logic
programming, contextual logic programming and tabling systems.
Abductive and Inductive Logic Programming
Reasoning with incomplete and uncertain information, including
non-monotonic reasoning as well as probabilistic and fuzzy logic
programming formalisms.
Reasoning on the Semantic Web.
IMPORTANT DATES:
Deadline for paper submission: 15 April, 2009
Notification of paper acceptance: 31 May, 2009
Conference dates: 12-15 October, 2009
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMISSION:
All papers should be submitted in PDF format through the conference
management website at:
