The biennial International and Interdisciplinary Conference on
Modeling and Using Context (CONTEXT) provides a forum for high-quality
discussions about context among researchers in artficial intelligence,
cognitive science, computer science, linguistics, organizational
science, philosophy, and psychology. Context is important in a wide
range of fields and applications , and in a variety of ways. The
importance of studying context as a subject matte r in its own right,
as well as in how it relates to other areas, is widely
acknowledged. This is evidenced by numerous recent workshops,
symposia, seminars, and conferences on the subject (see the Context
Web site). The CONTEXT series of conferences has a unique place among
these these due to its strong emphasis on interdisciplinary
research. The first conference in this series (CONTEXT'97) was held in
Rio de Janeiro in 1997, and the second (CONTEXT'99 ) was held in
Trento in 1999 (see http://www.cs.unitn.it/CONTEXT-99 for details).
TOPICS OF INTEREST
The following topics are indicative of the scope of the conference:
case-ba sed reasoning, cognitive modeling, commonsense reasoning,
active databases, decision support systems, distributed information
systems, formal theories of context, heterogeneous information
integration, human-computer interaction, information management,
intelligent internet systems, intelligent tutoring systems, knowledge
engineering, knowledge management, knowledge representation, machine
learning, multi-agent systems, natural language processing, natural
language semantics, organizational contexts, philosophical
foundations, and pragmatics.
