Introduction

BNAIC is an international scientific conference for research in
Artificial Intelligence.
The BNAIC conferences series was initiated in 1988 by the Netherlands
Association for Artificial Intelligence (later incorporating Belgium
and Luxembourg to become the Benelux Association for AI) in order to
promote research in AI among Benelux AI researchers, scientists and
engineers in related disciplines. This year we are delighted to bring
BNAIC for the first time to the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. According
to the success of previous years, BNAIC 2010 will include invited
speakers, research and industry presentations and project
demonstrations.

Submission details

Researchers are invited to submit unpublished original research, but
high-quality research results possibly already published in
international conferences or journals are also welcome.
Three types of submissions are invited:

Type A: REGULAR PAPERS

Papers presenting new original work. Submitted papers should not
exceed a length of 8 pages. These papers will be reviewed on overall
quality and relevance. A-Papers can be accepted for either oral or
poster presentation. All accepted papers will be fully published in
the proceedings.

Type B: COMPRESSED CONTRIBUTIONS

Papers that have been accepted after June 1st, 2010 for AI-related
refereed conferences or journals can be resubmitted and will be
accepted as compressed contributions. Authors are invited to submit
the officially published version (without page restriction) together
with a one or two-page abstract. B-Papers will be accepted for either
oral or poster presentation. The abstract of the paper will be
published in the proceedings. Every author may submit at most one
B-paper of which they are the corresponding author, and only if they
do not submit any A-paper as corresponding author.

Type C: DEMONSTRATIONS & APPLICATIONS

Proposals for demonstrations will be evaluated based on submitted
demonstration summaries stating the following: the purpose of the
system to be demonstrated, its user groups, the organization or
project for which it is developed, the developers, and the technology
used. In addition, the system requirements and the duration of the
demo (not exceeding 30 minutes) should be mentioned. Especially master
students are encouraged to submit papers presenting their applications
and experiences. The maximum size of demonstration summaries is 2
pages (in English).

Papers and demonstration summaries should be submitted electronically
via Easychair (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bnaic2010)
by June 4th, 2010. See http://bnaic2010.uni.lu/instructions.html for
more details. Submission implies willingness of at least one author to
register for BNAIC'10 and present the paper. For each paper, a
separate author registration is required. Authors keep the copyright
of their submissions. The BNAIC Proceedings are published under ISSN
series number 1568-7805.
