----- Call For Papers -----
International Workshop on Case-based Reasoning and Context Awareness
(CACOA 2006)
At
Eighth European Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ECCBR 2006)
Oludeniz / Fethiye, Turkey, 5th Sep 2006
Submission deadline: May 15, 2006
Workshop website: cacoa2006.workshop.hm
----- Objectives -----
Context-sensitive processing has a key role in many modern intelligent
IT applications, including mobile and ubiquitous computing,
collaborative software, web engineering, personal digital assistants,
information sharing, health care workflow and patient control, adaptive
games, and e-Learning solutions. As such, context awareness in
case-based reasoning (CBR) systems is a topic of increased research.
In these areas, context serves as a major source for reasoning,
decision-making, and adaptation. Consequently, achieving desired
behaviors from CBR systems in these areas will depend on the ability to
represent and manipulate information about a rich range of contextual
factors, such as environmental characteristics, knowledge states,
emotions, etc. This representation and reasoning problem presents
research challenges to which numerous methods and techniques derived
from artificial intelligence and knowledge management (e.g., logical
reasoning, object relationship models, ontologies, similarity measures,
and intelligent retrieval mechanisms) are now being brought to bear.
----- Workshop Goals -----
The major goal of the workshop is to bring researchers, scientists from
both industry and academics, and representatives from different
communities together to study, understand, and explore the handling of
context in IT applications, in particular, with a focus on CBR, i.e.,
storing, comparing, reusing and adapting previously stored contextual
knowledge. As we are interested understanding and discussing new trends,
ideas, and technology, we encourage also submissions of work in progress.
Besides contributed papers and invited talks, this workshop will offer
organized and open spaces for targeted discussions. An expected result
is to form a common understanding on the topic of modeling, comparing,
and adapting context. Additional discussions will be about integrating
explanation and justification into context-aware applications to enable
trustworthy systems.
----- Topics -----
The topics that fall within the scope of this workshop include, but are
not limited to:
- Reasoning about context with cases
- Context in case adaptation
- Context in case indexing and similarity
- Context-based situation assessment
- Context to predict solution applicability
- Use of different context models in CBR
- Consequences of changing contexts in CBR systems
- Evaluations of context-aware CBR applications
- Explanation and context (explaining contextual elements)
- Trust, trustworthiness, and reliability
----- Important Dates -----
15 May 2006 Deadline for workshop paper submission
16 June 2006 Notification of acceptance for workshop papers
14 July 2006 Deadline for camera-ready copies of workshop papers
14 August 2006 Deadline for attendee extended abstract submission
5 September 2006 Workshop at Oludeniz/Fethiye, Turkey
----- Submissions and Style ------
Workshop submissions will be electronic, in pdf format only, using a
submission system on the workshop website. Papers must be written in
English and not exceed 15 pages in the Springer LNCS format. At least
one author of each accepted paper must register for the workshop and
present the contribution in order to be published in the workshop
proceedings.
