Call for Papers

We invite submissions of papers to this symposium. Submissions will take the form of an extended abstract (between 1500 and 2000 words, not including references). Each abstract will be reviewed by at least two reviewers, following a double-blind process. Authors of accepted abstracts will be asked to submit the complete paper which will form part of the symposium proceedings.

The proceedings will both be hosted on this symposium webpage, and the proceedings shall be submitted to CEUR-WS.org for online publication.

At least one author of all accepted papers must attend the conference and deliver a 30-minute presentation (remote presentations are not accepted). If the no presentation is made, the paper will be removed from the proceedings prior to its submission to CEUR-WS for online publication.

Topics

We welcome contributions from areas that include (but are not limited to):

• The representation of values, preferences, and goals
