CALL FOR PAPERS Eighth International Symposium on ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND MATHEMATICS
January 4-6, 2004, Fort Lauderdale, Florida http://rutcor.rutgers.edu/~amai Paper submission deadline: October 3, 2003 APPROACH OF THE SYMPOSIUM: The International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Mathematics is the eighth of a biennial series. The series was started by Martin Golumbic and the editorial board of the Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence serves as the permanent Advisory Committee. The objective of the Symposium is to foster interactions between mathematics, theoretical CS, and artificial intelligence. Traditionally, the Symposium attracts around 100 participants from a variety of disciplines, thereby providing a unique forum for active scientific exchange. The Symposium includes invited speakers, special topic sessions, and presentations of submitted papers. INVITED SPEAKERS: Robert Bixby, ILOG Inc. Ronen Brafman, Ben-Gurion University, Israel An additional speaker to be announced at a later date SPECIAL TOPIC SESSIONS: Preferences Organizer: Ronen Brafman, Ben-Gurion University, Israel Portfolio Design for Combinatorial Problems Organizers: Carla Gomes, Bart Selman, Cornell, USA Artificial Intelligence and Game Theory Organizers: Kevin Leyton-Brown, Stanford, USA Moshe Tennenholtz, Technion, Israel PAPER SUBMISSION: Authors must email either Adobe PDF (pdf) or Postscript (ps) files of their extended abstracts (up to 8 pages, 12pt font, single column format) to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be received by October 3, 2003. Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by November 3, 2003. Final versions of accepted extended abstracts, for inclusion in the conference volume, are due by November 28, 2003. Full versions of a selected set of papers from the Symposium will be published in a special volume in the Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence, Kluwer Academic Publishers.
