In Cooperation with Information Processing Society of Japan Japan Society for Software Science and Technology The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers Venue & Date Advanced Research Laboratory, Hitachi Ltd. (Hatoyama) November 7 - 9, 1994 A problem in the process of building knowledge-based systems is acquiring and modeling appropriate problem-solving knowledge. The objective of this workshop is to assemble theoreticians and practitioners of AI who recognize the need for developing methods and systems that assist the knowledge acquisition process. A major goal of the workshop is to encourage vigorous interaction and exchange of idea. Consequently, the workshop participation will be kept small - about 50 participants. Persons not submitting papers can also request to participate. Authors are invited to formulate an issue that would be useful to discuss. Software demonstrations related to presented papers are also encouraged. Best paper awards are available for foreign students to cover a part of their travel expenses (100,000 yen/person). Papers are invited for consideration in all aspects of knowledge acquisition for knowledge-based systems, including (but not restricted to): o Languages and frameworks for knowledge and knowledge modeling o Tools and techniques for knowledge modeling o Tools and techniques for sustained knowledge acquisition, knowledge refinement and knowledge validation o Fundamental views on knowledge that affect the knowledge acquisition process and the use of knowledge in knowledge engineering o Integration of knowledge acquisition and machine learning o Integration of knowledge acquisition techniques within a single system; integration of knowledge acquisition systems with other systems (hypermedia, database management systems, simulators, spreadsheets ...) o Methods and techniques for sharing and reusing knowledge and knowledge models Five copies of a draft paper (up to 20 pages) should be sent to Riichiro Mizoguchi (see the address below) before May 31, 1994. Acceptance notices will be mailed by August 31, 1994. Camera-ready copies should be returned before October 10, 1994. The proceedings will be published and distributed at the workshop.
