Workshops
General Information
The Program Committee invites proposals for workshops, to be held at
KI-2002. The workshops are intended to offer the opportunity for the
in-depth discussion of specific topics and the informal exchange of
novel ideas in an inspiring atmosphere. Workshop proposals from all
subfields of Artificial Intelligence are invited. Proposals reflecting
the special focus of KI-2002 - multiagent systems, semantic web, and
knowledge discovery - are particularly encouraged.
Workshops may be held in German or English. Workshop organizers may
limit the number of participants. Hard copies of the working notes
will be made available at the main conference. To cover costs, these
hard copies will be charged in addition to the main conference
registration fee. Workshop organizers should also consider the
possibility to electronically publish their working notes. Note that
workshop participants and organizers must register for the main
conference.
