ECAI 2006, 17th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence: Volume 141 Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence and Applications, 9781586036423 (1586036424), IOS Press, 2006

In the summer of 1956, John McCarthy organized the famous Dartmouth Conference which is now commonly viewed as the founding event for the field of Artificial Intelligence. During the last 50 years, AI has seen a tremendous development and is now a well-established scientific discipline all over the world. Also in Europe AI is in excellent shape, as witnessed by the large number of high quality submissions we received. About 600 papers and posters were registered for ECAI-06, out of which 550 were actually reviewed (501 paper submissions and 49 poster submissions). The program committee decided to accept 131 full papers, which amounts to an acceptance rate of 26.1%, and 75 posters (authors of full papers had the possibility to opt for acceptance as poster in case of rejectance as full paper).

In comparison with ECAI 2004, we see a strong increase in the relative number of submissions from Distributed AI/Agents and Cognitive Modelling. Knowledge Representation & Reasoning is traditionally strong in Europe and remains the biggest area of ECAI-06. One reason the figures for Case-Based Reasoning are rather low is that much of the high quality work in this area has found its way into prestigious applications and is thus represented under the heading of PAIS.
