Title: Logics in artificial intelligence
First published: 2002
Description: TheEuropeanConferenceonLogicsinAIprovidesamajorbiennialforumforthe discussion of logic-oriented approaches to arti?cial intelligence. Following pre- ous workshops held in France (1988), The Netherlands (1990), Germany (1992), England (1994), Portugal (1996), Germany (1998), and Spain (2000) the eighth conference was in Cosenza, Italy, September 23–26, 2002. The international level and the overall technical quality of this event is now well established. As a c- sequence, the Program Committee wished to explicitly mark JELIA 2002 as a milestone by promoting the event from a “Workshop” to a “Conference”.

JELIA strived to foster links and facilitate cross-fertilization of ideas among researchers from various disciplines, among researchers from academia, industry, and g- ernment, and between theoreticians and practitioners.
