Call for Papers
The Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science Conference AICS'02
will be hosted by the Department of Computer Science and Information
Systems, University of Limerick from Thursday 12th to Friday 13th
September 2002.
The conference has taken place annually since 1988 and provides a
forum for the exchange of ideas and the presentation of results
relating to work conducted both in Ireland and worldwide.
The Program Committee invites submissions of papers that report
original research, both basic and applied, within Artificial
Intelligence and Cognitive Science, broadly construed. Areas of
interest include but are not restricted to: case-based reasoning,
cognitive modeling, constraint processing, data mining, evolutionary
computation, intelligent agents, intelligent information retrieval,
knowledge representation & reasoning, learning, natural language
processing, neural networks, perception and planning, robotics, and
scheduling.
Paper Submission
Submissions in English comprising up to eight pages of A4 text (3000 words
approx.) must be prepared in RTF or LaTeX using an electronic template
available from the AICS'02 website (or directly from Springer at
www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html) and sent by email in either PDF or
Postscript to aics02@ul.ie by the due deadline (see below).
When looking for the style files, bear in mind that sample documents
in both LaTeX and MS Word exist at the Springer URL above which you
can conveniently transform into an article in the right format by
replacing the sample title with your title and so on. For the .tex
sample document, click on 'TEX file' in the LaTeX paragraph. For the
.doc sample document, click on 'ZIP archive' in the MS Word paragraph.
Those making submissions from North America are requested to set the
page size of their word processors to A4 when working on their papers
to ensure that they are the right length. The number of pages is
crucial while the number of words is not.
All submissions will be acknowledged.
Accepted papers will be published in full in the printed proceedings
available at the conference. Springer-Verlag have indicated that they
may publish the proceedings in their Lecture Notes in Artificial
Intelligence (LNAI) Series.
The editors of the proceedings reserve the right to alter papers which do
not
conform to the template or which are more than eight A4 pages in length.

The Venue
The University of Limerick is situated on rolling parkland beside the
historic River Shannon. The tranquil red brick campus is complemented
by many lakes, fountains and sculptures.
The conference will be based in the new Computer Science Building,
home of the Computer Science and Information Systems Department, an
airy and imposing structure incorporating lecture theatres, meeting
rooms, computer laboratories and research centres, all equipped to the
highest standards.
There are many sights worth visiting in the Shannon region which is
considered the most beautiful in Ireland: The Aran Islands, Bunratty
Castle, the thousand foot high Cliffs of Moher, Rock of Cashel, King
John's Castle and Aillwee Caves are all close by. In addition there is
Loch Derg, teeming with wildlife on its many islands and surrounded by
blue-green hills and lofty mountains.
The University is easily reached - Shannon International Airport is
only 12 Miles (20 Km) away, with regular direct flights to London, New
York, and many other cities.
