=======================================================================
The *submission* deadline of the 1st Workshop on Trends and Applications of
Answer Set
Programming (*TAASP 2016*) at KI 2016 was extended to *July 4, 2016*.


TAASP is a non-archival venue and there will be no published proceedings.
However, informal proceedings will be provided and the papers will be
posted informally
website/ArXiv. Therefore, it will be possible to submit to other
conferences and journals
both in parallel and subsequent to TAASP 2016.

                          CALL FOR PAPERS
                              TAASP 2016
      Workshop on Trends and Applications of Answer Set Programming
                         September 26th, 2016

 Affiliated with the German Conference on Artificial Intelligence 2016
                           Klagenfurt, Austria
                          September 26-30, 2016

AIMS AND SCOPE
 Answer set programming (ASP) is a widely used declarative programming
 paradigm based on the stable-model semantics. Over the years,
 the formalism has been extended with new language elements, advanced
 evaluation techniques have been developed, and efficient and expressive
 systems have been realized. These advancements turned ASP into a rich
 modeling language which was successfully applied to various tasks in
 artificial intelligence and beyond, including combinatorial problems
 and knowledge-intense tasks. Driven by the needs of applications,
 ongoing research in the field comprises, for instance, the integration
 with other paradigms (such as constraint programming), distributed
 computation, temporal and stream reasoning. These developments aim at
 the ultimate goal of equipping ASP with the features needed for
 realizing modern information systems. This workshop focuses on recent
 trends in the area of ASP, including novel techniques for the
 evaluation of ASP programs, extensions of the formalism, integration
 with other formalisms, and advancements of systems. Furthermore,
 discussions of applications of ASP and its extensions in AI and
 industry are welcome.

TOPICS
 Topics of interests include (but are not limited to):
 - Evaluation algorithms and techniques for ASP.
 - Grounding including lazy-grounding and grounding-on-the-fly.
 - Integration of ASP with constraint programming.
 - Integration of ASP with description logics.
 - Integration of ASP with external computations.
 - Integration of ASP with other declarative formalisms.
 - Integration of ASP with procedural languages.
 - Other language extensions to ASP.
 - ASP and argumentation.
 - ASP and multi-agent systems.
 - ASP and multi-context systems.
 - Stream and temporal reasoning based on ASP.
 - Modularity techniques in ASP.
 - Advancements of ASP systems.
 - Evaluation and comparison of ASP to other paradigms.
 - Applications of ASP and its extensions in AI.
 - Applications of ASP and its extensions in other fields and industry.
