            Compulog Network of Excellence: 1995 Area Meeting
                on Knowledge Representation and Reasoning

                   6-8 September 1995, Leuven, Belgium


            Preliminary Call for Abstracts and Participation


General Information:
        Following the workshops at London (1992) and Lisbon (1993),
        this meeting aims to provide a forum for discussion between
        researchers active on issues of Knowledge Representation and
        Reasoning in Computational Logic.  The event will be held
        back-to-back with the 5th International Workshop on
        Inductive Logic Programming, and will include a one-day joint
        workshop of the Esprit Networks of Excellence on Computational
        Logic (Compulog) and Machine Learning (MLnet).

Program:
        The scientific program will consist of invited talks and
        presentations of selected abstracts.  Specific attention will
        be given to stimulating the discussion on the issues below, or
        similar ones. Authors are strongly encouraged to address such
        issues and link them to the scientific content of their abstracts.
        Position papers on these issues alone are also welcome.

        - The interrelation and cross-fertilization between substreams
          of work within the area.

        - The connections with border areas such as, among others,
          Inductive Logic Programming, Distributed AI and Multi-agents,
          Robotics, Natural Language, Constraint Programming, and
          Legal Reasoning.

        - The applicability of the technology developed in the KRR area
          to industrial applications.

        - The collaboration between CEC projects in the KRR area in which
          CL Network member nodes are involved.

        - The potential for cooperation in CEC sponsored educational
          programs.

        - Specific actions that can be taken to further improve
          interaction within the KRR area, and with border areas and
          industry.

        - The future of the area in the forthcoming extension proposal of
          the Compulog Network of Excellence.

        Abstracts of at most 5000 words should be sent to the KRR area
        coordinator:

        Luis Moniz Pereira
        Departamento de Informatica, Universidade Nova de Lisboa
        2825 Monte da Caparica, Portugal, email: lmp@fct.unl.pt

        by 15 June 1995.  Notification of acceptance/rejection will be
        given by 1 July 1995.  Email submissions are preferred.

        A collection of the accepted submissions will be made available
        to the registered participants beforehand, in August, so as to
        facilitate and promote discussion.

        Information on participation can be obtained from the local
        organizer:
