ASAI 2002 seeks original contributions in a wide spectrum of applications of 
the Artificial Intelligence, ranging from state-of-the-art academic research 
to industrial and business  applications having a significant impact. The 
symposium will consist of invited talks and paper sessions presenting both 
mature work and new ideas in research and applications. 

Submissions can be full papers addressing any topic of artificial 
intelligence or short papers describing ongoing research projects at academic 
or development environments. An international program  committee using 
criteria appropriate to their category will review the papers. Papers may be 
accepted for presentation as talks in sessions. Submissions are due on May 
6th 2002.  Delayed submissions will most likely be rejected.
            
ASAI 2002 will be part of JAIIO 2002, the 31st Argentine Meeting on Computer 
Science and Operational Research, organized by the Argentine Computer Science 
and Operational Research Society. The JAIIO Conference will be held on 
September 9-13, including other  symposia, tutorials and student contests.

The submissions of papers must follow the LNCS format 
(http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html ). All contributions, of 
maximum 12 pages length for full papers and of 6 pages for short ones, should 
be submitted by e-mail in ghostview-readable Postscript or PDF. For diffusion 
reason, papers in English are strongly preferred, but in Spanish they will be 
also acceptable. A separated e-mail must be sent (in ASCII) with the title of 
the paper, the abstract, name and filiation/s of the authors (including 
complete address, e-mail account and phone/fax number. Please, specify 
corresponding author.), a maximum of five keywords and the topics (at most 
three) which the work classifies. The format for the camera-ready copy will 
be informed together with the acceptance letter.

Receipt of a submission will be acknowledged immediately to the corresponding 
author.
Electronic submissions must be sent to
