Introduction

ASAI, the Argentine Symposium on Artificial Intelligence, is an annual event intended to be the main forum of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) community in Argentina. The symposium aims at providing a forum for researchers and AI community members to discuss and exchange ideas and experiences on diverse topics of AI. Previous ASAI editions stimulated presentations on both applications of AI and new tools and foundations currently under development.

The Eighth Argentine Symposium on Artificial Intelligence (ASAI 2006) will be held during 4th - 5th September 2006, in Mendoza, Argentina.
ASAI 2006 will be part of the 35th JAIIO, the 35th Argentine Meetings on Informatics and Operations Research, organized by SADIO .

ASAI 2006 seeks original contributions in a wide spectrum of Artificial Intelligence, ranging from state-of-the-art academic research to industrial and business applications having a significant impact. The symposium will consist of invited talks and regular paper sessions presenting both mature work and new ideas in theoretical research and applications.
Submissions are due before April 28th 2006. All papers received before the deadline will be peer-reviewed by referees of the area.

The submission of manuscripts must follow the format available at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. All contributions, of maximum 12-page length, should be submitted in Ghostview-readable Postscript or PDF formats. For diffusion reasons, papers in English are strongly recommended (Spanish is also acceptable).

The receipt of a submission will be acknowledged immediately to the corresponding author. Information on the format of the camera-ready copy will be sent by email with the acceptance letter.

All accepted papers will be published in JAIIO 2006 Proceedings. At least one of the authors will be required to register and attend the symposium to present the paper. Extended versions of selected papers accepted for previous ASAI meetings have been published as special issues in the Revista Iberoamericana de Inteligencia Artificial, edited by the Spanish Association for Artificial Intelligence (http://aepia.dsic.upv.es/revista/). A similar avenue is going to be considered for ASAI 2006.
