Instructions for Authors

All submitted papers will be evaluated by at least two members of the program committee, based on originality, significance, relevance and technical quality. Papers should be formatted according to the CEUR-WS's single-column style (http://ceur-ws.org/HOWTOSUBMIT.html).

We welcome three categories of paper submission:

Full papers: (more than 10 pages) These should report work in progress or completed work. Authors of full papers that are accepted by the Programme Committee will be invited to give a talk on the paper.

Short papers: (up to 9 pages) These should report views or ambitions, or describe problems. The author(s) will be able to discuss the paper informally with others at the workshop and will be invited to give a short presentation on their work.

Extended abstracts: (up to 2 pages, plus references) To foster the exchange of ideas at IPS, we encourage authors to submit extended abstracts of original work, work-in-progress, or work which has appeared in or is under review at other venues such as AAAI/ICAPS/IJCAI/SOCS. The author(s) will be able to discuss the paper informally with others at the workshop and will be invited to give a short presentation on their work.

Submissions should be single blinded, i.e. authors names should be included in the submissions. Submissions must be made through the EasyChair conference system (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=ips-2023) conference system before the indicated deadline (all deadlines refer to GMT). At least one of the authors should register and take part at the conference to make the presentation.

IPS proceedings will be published in CEUR Workshop Proceedings series. Together with the AIxIA, the IPS organizing committee is investigating ways to publish the proceedings in a series of Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (Springer). An opportunity to publish in this series is given to both short and long papers, provided that the work has not been published before and a proper revision of the content of the paper is done so as to meet LNAI standards. Original accepted papers will be submitted for indexation by: DBLP, Thomson Reuters, EI, SCOPUS, Semantic Scholar and Google Scholar. Note that papers shorter than 5 pages will not be indexed by scopus.

Authors of already published papers must clearly indicate this information in their submission.
