RuleMLRR2017: RuleML+RR: International Joint Conference on Rules and Reasoning (#RuleMLRR2017) Birkbeck, University of London London, UK, July 12-15, 2017 |
Conference website | http://2017.ruleml-rr.org |
Submission deadline | March 6, 2017 |
RuleML+RR 2017 is the leading international joint conference in the field of rule-based reasoning, and focuses on theoretical advances, novel technologies, as well as innovative applications concerning knowledge representation and reasoning with rules. Stemming from the synergy between the well-known premier RuleML and RR events, one of the main goals of this conference is to build bridges between academia and industry.
RuleML+RR 2017 aims to bring together rigorous researchers and inventive practitioners, interested in the foundations and applications of rules and reasoning in academia, industry, engineering, business, finance, healthcare and other application areas. It will provide a forum for stimulating cooperation and cross-fertilization between the many different communities focused on the research, development and applications of rule-based systems.
Submission Guidelines
Papers must be original contributions written in English and must be submitted at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rulemlrr2017 as:
- Full Paper (15 pages in the proceedings)
- Short Paper (8 pages in the proceedings)
Please upload all submissions in LNCS format. To ensure high quality, submitted papers will be carefully peer-reviewed by at least 3 PC members based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. They must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference / workshop with formal proceedings
The accepted papers will be published in book form in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. Short papers may contain 1 extra page (max.) for which there is a charge of US$200. Long papers are allowed 2 extra pages (max.), with a charge of US$200 for EACH extra page.
