About the Workshop

This is the first in a new series of workshops organised by SGES, the
BCS Specialist Group on Knowledge Based Systems and Applied Artificial
Intelligence, looking at applications of Knowledge-Based Systems and
Intelligent Systems in the 21st Century. The goals of these workshops
are to promote discussion, review progress, and identify new
opportunities.


Workshop Context

As we move into the 21st Century, it is fashionable to talk about the
"Knowledge-Driven Economy", in which businesses and other organisations
exploit Information and Communications Technology to maximise their
capability and competitiveness. Knowledge Management systems allow
organisations to disseminate and harness their tangible and intangible
knowledge assets; Electronic Commerce systems connect customers to
vendors, and link together digital supply chains; Customer Relationship
Management systems foster alliances and collaborations among partner
organisations.

There is enormous potential for the use of Intelligent Systems
technology in all these aspects of a Knowledge-Driven Economy. Knowledge
engineering and machine learning techniques can underpin Knowledge
Management operations; software agent technology and game-theoretic
approaches can support Electronic Commerce activities; data mining and
case-based reasoning systems can be used effectively in Customer
Relationship Management.


Workshop Topics

Contributions are invited on any topic relating to the use of
Intelligent Systems technology to enable organisations to improve their
capability and competitiveness in a Knowledge-Driven Economy. These
include:

o  Knowledge Management:  
   -- capturing lessons learned
   -- forming communities of common interest
   -- building organisational memories
   -- discovering implicit knowledge in distributed information bases
   -- ...

o  Electronic Commerce:  
   -- modelling competitive markets
   -- automating virtual supply chains (including use of XML)
   -- shopping agents and auction services
   -- legal reasoning and trust
   -- ...

o  Customer Relationship Management:  
   -- recommender systems
   -- personalisation and user-profiling 
   -- web portal services
   -- data mining
   -- ...


Workshop Format and Submissions

The workshop will be built around short presentation and panel sessions,
to generate discussion. Participation is by invitation only, with
preference given to people who have submitted a paper or extended
abstract. The number of places is limited. We invite submissions of
the following kinds: 
o  technical papers or extended abstracts (no more than 5000 words) 
   describing ongoing or recently-completed work; 
o  short statement of interest in the workshop topic (no more than 2000 
   words).

Submitted papers that have recently been presented at relevant
conferences are welcome, although this should be made clear at the time
of submission. Selected submissions from the workshop will be reprinted
in a special issue of Expert Update, the bulletin of the BCS Specialist
Group on Knowledge Based Systems and Applied Artificial Intelligence.

All submissions should include: author's name, affiliation, postal
address, phone & fax numbers, and email address. All submissions should
be sent to the workshop chair at the address below. Electronic
submission (.ps, .pdf, .doc) is preferred; alternatively, send two paper
copies.


Timetable

March 24, 2000:  Paper or extended abstract submission
April  7, 2000:  Notification of acceptance
May    8, 2000:  Workshop


Venue

The Foresight Centre is housed within an elegant grade II listed
building of great architectural and historical significance, situated on
the edge of Liverpool City Centre (5-10 minutes walk from Lime Street
station). The building dates back to the late 1800s when it serviced the
people of Merseyside as the Liverpool Royal Infirmary. It was designed
by Liverpool born architect Alfred Waterhouse, champion of high
Victorian Gothic with advice from Florence Nightingale.

After lying empty for 15 years, The University of Liverpool purchased
the 2.7 hectares site from the North West Regional Health Authority in
1994. Since then the University has embarked on a programme to develop
the site and restore the buildings to their former glory. The foresight
centre (completed in 1997) forms part of Phase 1 of the restoration
programme. See http://www.liv.ac.uk/foresight for further information.

There will be a nominal registration fee of £30 to cover lunch and
tea/coffee breaks, and workshop notes.

Contact the workshop chair for information on accommodation.
