To submit a paper, login to the ICAPS 2015, EasyChair submission page as "Author", and click on "New Submission". You will be prompted to enter the administrative data about the paper, in particular the names, affiliations, and email addresses of all authors.

Full technical papers may be up to 8 pages + 1 for references. Short papers may be up to 4 pages + 1 for references. A "student paper” is one where the main author is a student (these are eligible for the Best Student Paper award). To facilitate the reviewer assignment process, please select at least three meaningful keywords for and all topics that apply for.

Like for previous ICAPS conferences, paper submission is anonymous, i.e., the reviewers will not be aware of the names of the authors. For this purpose, the author information on the title page must be removed. We recommend replacing it with the tracking number of the submission. Furthermore, please remove any explicit author references in the text, and refer to your own previous work as if it was the work of somebody else.

Paper submission is in PDF only. To submit only an abstract, you may tick a box provided for this purpose. Abstracts must be submitted by 14 November 2014. Papers must be submitted by 18 November 2014, All ICAPS deadlines refer to 23:59 in the UTC-12 time zone. (So if there is still some place in the world where the deadline has not yet passed, you are on time.)

Submissions may be accompanied by an attachment. This may be in the form of an appendix, or media (e.g., video) relevant to demonstrating the work. However, papers must be self-contained. An attachment may be provided only as a resource that reviewers may take advantage of if they so wish. Reviewers have no obligation to access attachments or consider them in evaluating a submission.

In between the abstract and paper deadlines, paper information (including the paper PDF) may be updated as often as desired. We discourage authors from changing the abstract and title after the initial submission, because that would significantly impede the paper bidding and reviewer assignment phases, which are also scheduled to occur between the two deadlines.

Submissions must be in AAAI format. Refer to the author instructions on the AAAI web site for detailed formatting instructions and LaTeX style files. Final papers will be in the same format. The proceedings will be published by AAAI Press.
