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 and sent by email to aics02@ul.ie by the
due
deadline (see below).
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. They may also be published subsequently in book form.
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.
