SCAI'01 First announcement and call for papers
SEVENTH SCANDINAVIAN CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
  http://www.mip.sdu.dk/scai01
Odense, Denmark, February 19-21, 2001

After going through a difficult period, there is a feeling that AI is 
headed towards better times again. Certainly the very
challenging problems it addresses remain unsolved. Thus, it has been 
decided not to point out some key theme for the
conference, but instead treat all branches of AI equally, including 
some of the exciting recent developments in

       bioinformatics,
       machine learning
       multi-agent systems
       electronic commerce
       behavioural robotics.

Publication
As previously, the proceedings of the conference will be published by 
IOS Press in their series "Frontiers in AI".

Submission of papers
Authors may submit papers written in English describing unpublished 
work in any area of Artificial Intelligence by the
deadline 1 November 2000. Papers may not exceed 6000 words or 10 
pages, and may be submitted either as hard copy
(8 copies) or in electronic form (postscript or word). Formatting 
instructions are available from IOS Press at the URL:
