ICAPS 2016
Journal Presentation Track
Call for Papers
http://icaps16.icaps-conference.org/journal-track.html
Deadline: March 4
*************************************************
Call for Papers
The program committee of The 26th International Conference on Automated
Planning and Scheduling (ICAPS) invites submissions of published journal
papers for the Journal Presentation Track, successfully initiated in 2013.
The track is designed to provide a forum to discuss important results
related to automated planning and scheduling that appeared recently
(from March 2015 onwards) in selective journals, but have not been
previously presented either at ICAPS or at a major AI conference.
The goal of this track is two-fold:
- To provide authors an opportunity to present at the conference
important results published in journals that might otherwise not be
submitted to the conference due to their length and complexity. Papers
that differ from traditional ICAPS format and topics are welcome.
- To broaden the program with lines of work at the intersection
between planning/scheduling and related fields such as for example
constraint programming, knowledge representation and reasoning, machine
learning, multi-agent systems, robotics, computer games, and operations
research. Papers that use planning and scheduling in some innovative way
(even if they do not advance the planning technology itself) are welcome.
Paper Presentation
All accepted journal presentations will be presented orally during the
conference - at least one author is expected to register to ICAPS 2016
and to present the paper in person. Complete citations, abstracts and
URLs of the original journal papers (if available from the publisher)
will be published at ICAPS 2016 web site as a permanent reference.
Submission Requirements
Journal track submissions must meet the following criteria:
- Candidate papers must be published in a journal such as (but not
limited to) AIJ, AURO, JAIR, JAAMAS, KER and other relevant, including
inter-disciplinary, leading Journals from March 2015 until the
submission deadline.
- Papers that are in press may be submitted as long as the final
camera-ready version is available.
- Extensions of papers that have been previously presented at
ICAPS or another major AI conference (such as IJCAI, AAAI, ECAI) cannot
be submitted to this track.
Submission Process
All submissions will be done via EasyChair
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=journalsicaps16). The
submission will be in the following format:
- title of the original journal paper (to be published at web);
- complete reference of the original paper (to be published at web);
- URL, where the paper can be downloaded from the publisher (if
available) (to be published at web);
- abstract of the paper (to be published at web);
- an accompanying letter containing a brief summary of the key
results and contributions and explanation why this paper is interesting
to ICAPS community (in PDF);
- a copy of the paper with its final camera-ready contents (in PDF).
Submissions will go through an expedited selection process. Selection
criteria include significance of the results, relevance to the planning
and scheduling community, and contribution to diversification of
traditional ICAPS topics.
