FIRST CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: KR 2008 Eleventh International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning Sydney, Australia, September 16 - 19, 2008 Tutorials and opening ceremony, September 15 Early registration deadline: July 31, 2008 Collocated with NMR-08, ICAPS-08, CP-08 The single registration fee includes attendance to most events for all conferences http://www.kr.org/KR2008/ Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR&R) is a vibrant and exciting field of human endeavour. KR&R techniques are key drivers of innovation in computer science, and they have led to significant advances in practical applications in a wide range of areas from Artificial Intelligence to Software Engineering. Explicit representations of knowledge manipulated by reasoning engines are an integral and crucial component of intelligent systems. Semantic Web technologies, the design of software agents and Bio-Informatics technologies, in particular, provide significant challenges for KR&R. KR2008 will be a forum for the exchange of new ideas, issues, and results among the community of researchers in the principles and practices of KR&R systems.
