*** Extended Submission Deadline: 14th July 2014 ***

Aim & Scope

The annual IEEE International Conference on Tools with Artificial

Intelligence (ICTAI) provides a major international forum where

the creation and exchange of ideas related to artificial intelligence

are fostered among academia, industry, and government agencies.

The conference facilitates the cross-fertilization of these ideas and

promotes their transfer into practical tools, for developing intelligent

systems and pursuing artificial intelligence applications. The ICTAI

encompasses all technical aspects of specifying, developing and

evaluating the theoretical underpinnings and applied mechanisms

of the AI-based components of computer tools such as algorithms,

architectures and languages.
