================================================================
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original and unpublished
research on all aspects of Artificial Intelligence,
including, but not
limited to those given below.
This year, ICON-2002, International Conference
on Natural Language
Processing, will be held concurrently with
KBCS-2002. Authors may,
therefore, choose to submit papers focusing on
Natural Language
Processing (NLP) to ICON-2002. KBCS-2002 will also
consider NLP papers
provided they have substantial AI content. The
programme committee may
shift some papers between these two conferences
based on content and
suitability.

Papers should be in English, not exceeding 5000
words (including
figures and references). Papers should include an
abstract of about

"blind", the authors'
names and affiliations along with the main area of
the paper should be
given only on a separate cover sheet. Authors
should also exercise
care to see that there are no indirect clues to the
identity of the
author or the institution (e.g. self-citations
reading 'in our earlier
work cited below' ... etc)
Submissions should be in electronic form and
can be in any of the
following formats: PDF, Latex or Microsoft Word
(RTF format). Papers
may be submitted by E-mail or via the web at the

four hard copies of
the paper. Papers selected for the conference will
be published in the
proceedings.
