A Symposium on Combinatorial Search

该项目是关于组合搜索主题的国际研讨会系列的第二个。目前，这一领域的工作似乎分散在几个领域的许多会议上。该项目的智力价值源于在人工智能和机器人领域使用组合搜索的许多领域中共享新的结果，想法和问题。广泛的影响不仅来自于这种混合，而且来自于组合搜索的单一活动场所，我们希望在更广泛的社区中成为人们想要了解该领域最新发展的地方。第一次研讨会将于2008年作为AAAI研讨会举行。该系列的第二次会议在2009年国际人工智能联合会议之前和附近举行。NSF资助支持口头和海报演示的作者，以及受邀演讲者。

The project is the second in an international symposium series on the topic of combinatorial search. Currently, work in this area appears scattered across many conferences in several fields. The intellectual merit of this project stems from the sharing of new results, ideas, and problems across the many areas in AI and robotics where combinatorial search is used. Broad impact comes not only from this intermixing but from having a single locus of activity for efforts in combinatorial search, one that we expect to become known in the wider community as the place to look when one wants a snapshot of the latest developments in the area. The first symposium will be held as a AAAI workshop in 2008. This second meeting in the series is held just before and in the vicinity of the International Joint Conference for Artificial Intelligence in 2009. NSF funding supports authors of oral and poster presentations, as well as invited speakers.
