-- Call for Papers -- The 24th International Conference on Automated Planning and Scheduling ICAPS-2014 icaps14.icaps-conference.org June 21-26, 2014 Portsmouth, NH, USA Technical paper submission deadline: October 29 (abstracts) November 5 (papers) Special tracks: Robotics Novel Applications Journal Paper Presentations ========================================== This year's program committee welcomes papers that address planning and scheduling problems of all kinds, including but not limited to: * continuous state and action spaces * uncertainty and stochasticity * partially observable and unobservable domains * learning * multi-agent and distributed systems * on-line and real-time domains * continuous and lifelong planning * plan management and goal reasoning * commercial applications Relevant contributions include, but are not limited to : * Analytic and empirical studies of planning and scheduling problems as well as algorithms for solving them; * Studies applying automated planning and scheduling technologies to real problems and descriptions of deployed applications; * Techniques that extend the complexity and the types of problems that can be solved with current techniques; and * Analytic and implemented tools for supporting automated planning and scheduling. We particularly welcome papers that bring into planning and scheduling useful computational technologies from other areas of AI/CS. Following recent editions of ICAPS, authors may submit long (8 pages plus up to one page of references) or short (4 pages plus up to one page of references) papers. There will be three special tracks this year: * Robotics: including planning and scheduling at the level of teams, tasks, behaviors, motions, and controls; autonomous or mixed-initiative systems; formal methods and fielded systems * Novel Applications: including emerging and deployed applications, case studies and lessons learned * Journal Paper Presentations: work relevant to ICAPS that has appeared recently but has not been presented at a major AI conference Further information about the special tracks will be posted on the conference website.
