SoCS 2012: The Fifth Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Search

SoCS 2012

Symposium on Combinatorial Search

Niagara Falls, Canada

July 19-21, 2012

(co-allocated with AAAI'12)

Heuristic search and other forms of combinatorial search optimization are currently very active areas of research in Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Planning and other areas of Computer Science. The International Symposium on Combinatorial Search (SOCS) is meant to bring researchers in such areas together to exchange their ideas and cross-fertilize the field.

SOCS is targeting researchers and submissions in all fields that use combinatorial search, including artificial intelligence, planning, robotics, constraint programming, operations research and bioinformatics.

The full details about SoCS 2012 can be found in the Call For Papers.
