Call for Papers *** Submission deadline June 25, 2017 ***
Special Track on SAT and CSP
at the
29th IEEE International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence
IEEE ICTAI2017, Boston, MA, USA, November 06-08, 2017
http://www.ictai2017.org/
Constraint Programming (CP) and Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) are two related
major topics of research in Artificial Intelligence. They have proved to be
the most efficient techniques at the heart of general-purpose combinatorial
problem solving, with application ranging from automation of logics,
verification, planning and scheduling, both in academic research and
industry.
Over the years, the ICTAI conference has become a major forum for the
CSP and
SAT research communities for presenting new high-quality results. The
special
track SAT/CSP@ICTAI2017 is intended to be a forum for new ideas and
techniques
using satisfiability and constraint solving. It particularly welcomes
new core
solving techniques, extensions to other domains of AI and applications.
Topics
=====
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
SAT, SMT and CSP Solvers
Modeling, methodologies and tools
Implementation of solvers and global constraints
Applications of CSP and SAT-based technologies
Complete, incomplete and hybrid search techniques, heuristics,
metaheuristics
AI techniques based on SAT and CSP
Tractable classes of problems, FPT, decompositions
Soft and weighted constraints, optimization, MAX-SAT, MAX-CSP
Machine learning, deep learning in SAT and CSP
Social network engineering with SAT and CSP
Submissions
==========
Papers must be full papers up to 8 pages and follow the standard IEEE
formatting
instructions for conference papers (single-spaced, double-column,
10-point font
size).
Papers must be submitted in pdf only through the Easychair special track
submission page
(https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ictai2017). See
submission instructions in http://ictai2017.org/submission.htm
All papers will be reviewed by at least three members of the program
committee.
Papers must report high-quality original work, be unpublished and not
submitted
elsewhere during the whole ICTAI review process.
Each accepted paper must be presented by one of the authors and
accompanied by
at least one full ICTAI 2017 registration fee payment, to guarantee
publication
in the proceedings.
Proceedings and Special Journal Issue
=============================
All papers accepted in the CSP and SAT technologies special track will be
included in the ICTAI 2017 main proceedings published by the IEEE Computer
Society. Extended versions of the best papers are expected to be
invited for
publication in a special issue of an international journal after an
additional
round of reviews.
Important Dates
============
Paper submission: June 25, 2017
Notification: July 25, 2017
