CAIPI24: AAAI Workshop on AI Planning for Cyber-Physical Systems Vancouver, Canada, February 26, 2024

AI-Planning for real-world Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) is challenging. Planning algorithms must deal with high CPS complexities and large data quantities, all while maintaining their performance. Often, this overstrains conventional planning algorithms from individual research directions, such as symbolic or sub-symbolic planning.

The Workshop on AI Planning for Cyber-Physical Systems (CAIPI) at the AAAI’24 aims at soliciting discussion and collaboration between researchers on novel methods in AI-planning with a focus on applications in CPS.

Submission Guidelines

All papers must be original. Papers previously submitted to other journals / conferences are welcome. If the paper has already been rejected from a different conference a significant effort to address the criticisms should be made before submission. For preparing your paper, we ask you to use the official AAAI’24 author kit.

The following paper categories are welcome:

• Full papers (8 pages not including references / appendix) 
• Short papers (4 pages not including references / appendix)
• Posters (You can use your preferred format for your posters, we kindly ask you to prepare posters no larger than A0 paper size.)

• Novel applications of planning for CPS
• Combinations of sub-symbolic and symbolic planning
