Second Call for Papers
+++++++++++++++
The KBCS series of conferences, held every two years,
is intended to act as a forum for promoting
interaction among researchers in the field of
Artificial Intelligence in India and abroad. The
schedule includes a three-day conference on KBCS from
Dec 19-21, and one day of tutorials, on the 18th.
Papers are invited on substantial, original and

Intelligence, including, but not limited to those

held concurrently with KBCS-2002. Authors may,
therefore, choose to submit papers focusing on Natural
Language Processing (NLP) to ICON-2002. KBCS-2002

shift some papers between these two conferences based
on content and suitability.
