R. Germany Lines: 73 Approved: taylor@hplabs Location: Bonn, Germany - - - 2nd Call for Participation: EKAW88 2ND EUROPEAN KNOWLEDGE ACQUISITION FOR KNOWLEDGE-BASED SYSTEMS WORKSHOP Bonn, Germany June 19-23, 1988 It is the objective of EKAW88 to assemble theoreticians and practitioners of AI who recognize the need for developing methods and systems to assist the process of acquiring and modeling knowledge for knowledge-based systems. To encourage vigorous interaction and exchange of ideas the workshop will be limited to 40 participants. There will be individual presentations and ample time for technical discussions. An attempt will be made to define the state-of-the-art and future research needs. Attendance will be limited to those presenting their work, one author per paper. Papers are invited for consideration in all aspects of knowledge acquisition for knowledge-based systems. Ideal papers will make pragmatic or theoretical contributions supported by a computer implementation, and explain them clearly in the context of existing knowledge acquisition literature. Variations will be considered if they make a clear contribution to the field (for example, comparative analyses, major implementations or extensions, or other analyses of existing techniques). Five copies of an extended abstract (from 4 to 8 pages) or a full-length paper (up to 20 pages) should be sent to Marc Linster before March 25th, 1988. Acceptance notices will be mailed by Mai 9th. Camera-ready copies should be returned before June 6th 1988, so that they may be bound together for distribution at the workshop.
