INTRODUCTION
The Artificial Intelligence community in the United Kingdom is pleased to
host IJCAI-05 in Edinburgh.
Edinburgh's fusion of fabled streets, castle and other historic buildings
is contained within a vibrant, modern city with a long involvement in
Artificial Intelligence.
The hosts are the British Computer Society's Specialist Group on
Artificial Intelligence (BCS-SGAI), in collaboration with the University
of Edinburgh (Scotland).
IJCAI-05 will take place in the first full week of August 2005. This is
just prior to the start of the famous Edinburgh International Festival,

the 19th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, to be
held in Edinburgh, Scotland, 30 July - 5 August, 2005. The poster track is

CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
The IJCAI-05 Program Committee invites proposals for the Workshop Program,
to be held July 30 - August 1, 2005, immediately prior to the technical
conference. IJCAI-05 workshops will provide an informal setting where
participants will have the opportunity to discuss specific technical
topics in an atmosphere that fosters the active exchange of ideas. Members
from all segments of the AI community are invited to submit workshop
proposals for review. Workshops at the boundaries between sub-areas of AI,
and between AI and other fields are particularly encouraged, as are those
that focus on new and emerging topics, or on applications. To encourage
interaction and a broad exchange of ideas, each workshop will be limited
to 40 participants and ample time will be allotted for general discussion.
Attendance is limited to active participants only.
Workshops can vary in length, but most will last a full day. Workshop
attendees need not register for the main IJCAI conference, but are
encouraged to do so.

- Survey a mature area of AI research and/or practice
- Provide instruction in established but specialised AI methodologies
- Present a novel synthesis combining distinct lines of AI work
To broaden and improve the topic coverage provided, we also invite
suggestions as to what tutorial topics and presenters might be welcome.
