    The 20th International Workshop on Nonmonotonic Reasoning (NMR)
        https://sites.google.com/view/nmr2022/

           August 7-9, 2022, Haifa, Israel


NMR 2022 is part of the Federated Logic Conference (FLoC 2022)
https://www.floc2022.org/.


NMR is the premier forum for results in the area of nonmonotonic 
reasoning. Its aim is to bring together active researchers in this broad 
field within knowledge representation and reasoning (KRR), including 
belief revision, uncertain reasoning, reasoning about actions, planning, 
logic programming, preferences, deontic reasoning, argumentation, 
causality, and many other related topics including systems and 
applications (see NMR page, https://nmr.cs.tu-dortmund.de/).

In this call we invite short contributions presenting work that has 
recently been published or is under review, or ongoing research at an 
advanced stage.

NMR has a long history - it started in 1984 and has been held every two 
years until 2020, and then every year. Recent previous NMR workshops 
were held in Hanoi (virtual, 2021), in Rhodes (virtual, 2020), Tempe 
(2018) and Cape Town (2016). Since 2020 NMR is being held annually. NMR 
workshops are usually co-located with the KR conferences (kr.org).
As in previous editions, NMR 2022 aims to foster connections between the 
different subareas of nonmonotonic reasoning and provide a forum for 
emerging topics.

The workshop will be held in Haifa, Israel, from 7 to 9 August 2022. 
Workshop activities will include invited talks and presentations of 
technical papers.

The papers should introduce work that has recently been published or is 
under review, or ongoing research at an advanced stage. We highly 
encourage to attach to the submission a preprint/postprint or a 
technical report. Such extra material will be read at the discretion of 
the reviewers. Submitting already published material may require a 
permission by the copyright holder.

Accepted submissions will be orally presented at the workshop.


-- Workshop Proceedings --

The accepted papers will be submitted to the CEUR Workshop Proceedings
