Welcome

ICAPS-2009, the International Conference on Automated Planning and Scheduling, will take place in Thessaloniki, Greece on September 19-23, 2009.

ICAPS is the premier forum for exchanging news and research results on theory and applications of intelligent planning and scheduling technology. The conference is part of the ICAPS conference series, whereas this year it will be co-organized by University of Macedonia.

The conference program will consist of pre-conference workshops and tutorials on current reserach topics, invited talks by leading computer scientists working in the area, presentations of contributed technical papers, as well as system demonstrations. For graduate students the conference includes a summer school and/or a doctoral consortium. Travel support for PhD students will be available.
