CP 2008
14th International Conference
on
Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming
Sydney, Australia 14-18 September 2008
http://www.csse.unimelb.edu.au/cp2008/
Co-located with: ICAPS, KR, and NMR.
____ Call for Workshops ____
The CP 2008 Program Committee invites proposals for the Workshop
Program.
CP 2008 workshops will provide an informal setting where workshop
participants will have the opportunity to discuss specific
technical topics in an atmosphere that facilitates the active
exchange of ideas. It is an opportunity to disseminate work in
progress or to promote new and emerging areas within the field of
constraints. The topics of the workshops can cover any area related
to constraints and any related cross-disciplinary areas. Workshops
related to planning and scheduling are especially encouraged
because of the co-location with ICAPS 2008.
All workshops will take place during 14-15 September 2008 as
pre-conference activities along tutorials and the doctoral program.
Workshops can be half-day or full-day. The internal format of the
workshop will be determined by the organisers.
