Special Tracks

There will be three special tracks at ICAPS 2015, see details as follows, two will consist of technical papers:

• Novel Applications Track: Emerging and deployed applications, case studies and lessons learned.
• Robotics Track: Planning, execution, and coordination for individual or teams of robots, at the level of tasks, behaviors and motions; applications in autonomous, mixed-initiative, and human-robot interactive systems; preference for techniques demonstrated on actual robot systems.

The additional Journal Presentation Track is designed to provide a forum to discuss important results in the area of automated planning and scheduling that appeared recently (from September, 2012 and onwards) in selective journals, but have not been previously presented at ICAPS or major AI conference. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to give an oral presentation at the conference and contribute an extended abstract to the conference proceedings. The goal of this track is two-fold: To provide authors an opportunity to present at the conference important results published in journals that might otherwise not be submitted to the conference due to their length and complexity. To broaden the program with lines of work at the intersection between planning/scheduling and related fields such as constraint programming, knowledge representation and reasoning, machine learning, multi-agent systems, robotics, and operations research. A CFP for this track will be published in the near future.
