--------------- Important Dates ----------------
30 August 1991: Proposals due
15 October 1991: Selection notification
11 December 1991: Arrangements finalized
2-3 March 1992: Workshops held
------------------------------------------------
Workshop participants will have the opportunity to meet and discuss
selected technical topics in an informal setting which promotes the
active exchange of ideas among practitioners and researchers. Members
from all segments of the AI community are invited to submit proposals
for review.
To encourage interaction and a broad exchange of ideas, the workshops
will be kept small. The format of workshop presentations will be
determined by the organizers proposing the workshop, but ample time
must be allotted for general discussion. Workshops can vary in
length, but most will last a half day or a full day.
Proposals for workshops should be between one and two pages in
length, and should contain:
o A brief description of the workshop identifying specific technical
issues that it will address, and, why the workshop is of interest at
this time.
o The names, postal addresses, phone numbers and email addresses of
the organizing committee, consisting of at least two people
knowledgeable in the field and not all at the same organization.
o A proposed schedule for organizing the workshop and a preliminary
agenda.
Proposals should be submitted as soon as possible, but no later than
30 August 1991. Proposals will be reviewed as they are received and
resources allocated as workshops are approved. Email submissions are
preferred and will be acknowledged as received. Organizers will be
notified of the committee's decision no later than 15 October 1991.
Workshop organizers will be responsible for:
o Producing a Call for Participation in the workshop, open to all
members of the AI community, which will be distributed by CAIA.
o Reviewing requests to participate in the workshop and selecting the
participants.
o Scheduling the workshop activities. All organizational
arrangements must be completed by 11 December 1991.
CAIA will provide logistical support and a meeting place for the
workshop, and, in conjunction with the organizers, will determine the
workshop date and time. CAIA reserves the right to cancel any workshop
if deadlines are missed. Workshop participants must register for the
conference.
Email submissions are encouraged and preferred. Please submit
proposals and any enquiries to:
