CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
9th European Conference on Case-Based Reasoning ECCBR 2008 1-4 September 2008, Trier (Germany)
***************************************************************
ECCBR 2008 is the 9th European Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) following a series of successful European conferences and workshops. This four-day conference will be held at the University of Trier in Germany. The conference programme will include invited talks, oral and poster presentations as well as workshops (see below) on both fundamental and applied research in CBR.
In addition to general CBR aspects, ECCBR 2008 will put a particular focus on two special areas with relevance to CBR, namely "The Role of CBR in the Future Internet" and "CBR in Healthcare".
Furthermore, the Industry Day will focus on industrial-strength technology and industrial applications of CBR.
A new element of the ECCBR programme is the Computer Cooking Contest (CCC) intended as a CBR system competition demonstrating the application of case retrieval, adaptation, and combination methods for cooking recipes.
