Call for Applications

July 20-24, 2014
Vienna, Austria
http://www.kr.org/KR2014/

The 14th International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR 2014) invites PhD students to apply for the Doctoral Consortium program.

1) AIMS AND SCOPE

The Doctoral Consortium is a student mentoring program that introduces students to senior researchers with similar research interests. The aims of the consortium are:

* to provide a forum for students to present their current research, and receive feedback from other students and senior researchers;
* to promote contacts among PhD students working in similar areas;
* to support students with information and advice on academic, research and industrial careers.

The Doctoral Consortium is intended for students who have a specific research proposal and some preliminary results, but who have sufficient time prior to completing their dissertation to benefit from the consortium experience.

We encourage submissions from PhD students at any level, and from any topic area within Knowledge Representation and Reasoning.

A number of student grants will be available to support student participation.


2) APPLICATION SUBMISSION

Applications must be submitted via our online submission site (see below). Each application must contain the following materials:

* Thesis summary: A description of the problem being addressed, your motivation for addressing the problem, proposed plan of research, the progress to date (what you have already achieved and what remains to be done), and related work. It must be four pages maximum in AAAI style (http://www.aaai.org/Publications/Author/author.php).
* Curriculum Vitae: A description of your background and relevant experience (research, education, employment).
* Letter of recommendation: A letter from your thesis advisor that states that he/she supports your participation in the DC.
* (Optional) You can suggest 3-5 potential mentors with similar research interests as you, who could give you good advice on technical aspects of your work, and/or your career.
* (Optional) Specify 3 to 5 questions you would like to ask your mentor and give some keywords that describe you research interests

The most preferred way of submission is to combine the thesis summary and the letter of recommendation (and, optionally, the list of suggested mentors) into a single PDF document. If you cannot do that, archive the documents into a single zip file. In either case, the resulting single file has to be submitted via the EasyChair system at

https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=kr2014dc

3) IMPORTANT DATES

Feb 21, 2014 : Deadline for application
March 28, 2014 : Acceptance notification
July 20-24, 2014 : Doctoral Consortium

For further information, please contact the Doctoral Consortium chairs:

complexity; computational geometry; cryptography; descriptive
complexity; evolutionary and genetic computing; experimental
algorithms; mobile computing; molecular computing and algorithmic
aspects of bioinformatics; network computing; neural computing;

communication complexity.

Track B - automata theory; automated deduction; constructive and
non-standard logics in computer science; concurrency theory and
foundations of distributed and mobile computing; database theory;
finite model theory; formal aspects of program analysis, foundations
of hybrid and real-time systems; lambda and combinatory calculi;
logical aspects of computational complexity; modal and temporal
logics; model checking and verification; probabilistic systems; logics
and semantics of programs; foundations of security; term rewriting;
specifications; type, proof and category theory in computer science.


SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract of at most 15 pages
(LNCS style with at least 11-point font size) to arrive before April
27, 2014. If more space is needed, a clearly marked appendix, to be
read at the discretion of the program committee, may be included if
desired. Submission will be handled by EasyChair. Further information
and submission details can be found on the Conference web page.
Simultaneous submissions to other conferences with published
proceedings are not allowed.

PROCEEDINGS:

The conference proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. Selected papers from
TCS 2014 will be invited to a special issue of the Journal Theoretical
Computer Science.
