KI 2011, the 34th event of the series, reflected a long-standing tra- dition, and continued to mirror the trends and developments of the science. The 2011 conference took place in Berlin during October 4–7, in co-location with INFORMATIK 2011, the 41st Annual Meeting of the Gesellschaft f¨ur Infor- matik, and MATES 2011, the 9th German Conference on Multi-Agent System Technologies. Since its inception, artificial intelligence has been at the vanguard of computer science, and today, its applications and methods have become so widespread and ubiquitous that most people simply take them for granted. Its contributions have so thoroughly permeated the fabric of our digital lives that they have become almost invisible. Artificial intelligence has become a mainstay, and is integrated everywhere from entertainment electronics and Internet technologies to transport and industry applications, from finance to agriculture, from art to electronic reading, from cognitive science to medicine. KI 2011 reflected this by its focus on advances “Towards a Smart World—Evolving Technologies in Artificial Intelligence.” This volume contains the technical papers of KI 2011. For the technical pro- gram, we received 81 submissions, of which the Program Committee accepted 32 after a rigorous review (25 of these as full papers, and 7 as short papers, lim- ited to five pages). The volume also includes three programmatic contributions corresponding to invited talks of KI 2011: “Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Planning (But Were Afraid to Ask)” by J¨org Hoffmann, “Why We Need Evolutionary Semantics” by Luc Steels, and “General Game Playing in AI Research and Education” by Michael Thielscher. A fourth invited talk by Sven Koenig concerned “Making Good Decisions: Case Studies in Planning and Coordination.” On the first day of the conference, PhD students presented and discussed their work in a doctoral consortium, which ended in a panel discussion on meth- ods, practices and philosophy of artificial intelligence, held by Bernhard Nebel, University of Freiburg; Franz Baader, TU Dresden; Ulrich Frank, University of Duisburg-Essen; and Ingo J. Timm, University of Trier. The 1st German Open in General Game Playing (GO-GGP) was organized by the competition chairs Peter Kissmann and Tim Federholzner. VI Preface In addition to the main program, KI 2011 featured seven workshops with many additional research presentations: – 5th Workshop on Emotion and Computing—Current Research and Future Impact. Chair: Dirk Reichardt. – 6th Workshop on Behavior Monitoring and Interpretation (BMI 2011). Chairs: Bj¨orn Gottfried and Hamid Aghajan. – Third Workshop on Dynamics of Knowledge and Belief—Evolving Knowledge in Theory and Applications. Chairs: Gabriele Kern-Isberner and Christoph Beierle. – 26th Workshop on Planning Scheduling, Configuration Design (PuK 2011). Chairs: J¨urgen Sauer, Stefan Edelkamp and Bernd Schattenberg. – First International Workshop on Algorithmic Intelligence. Chairs: Carsten Elfers, Rune Jensen, Hartmut Messerschmidt and Rasmus Pagh. – Workshop on Visibility in Information Spaces and in Geographic Environ- ments. Chairs: Andreas Henrich, Christoph Schlieder and Ute Schmid. – Workshop on Context-Aware Intelligent Assistance (CAIA 2011). Chairs: Stefan Mandl, Bernd Ludwig and Florian Michahelles. Giorgio Grisetti, Andreas N¨uchter and Alexander Kleiner offered a full-day tutorial on “SLAM to the Rescue: A Hands-On Tutorial on Using State-of-the- Art SLAM Algorithms in Harsh Environments.” Various robotics researchers from Berlin universities provided demonstrations of their work, especially Verena Hafner, Manfred Hild, Clemens Eppner, Daniel Seifert, and their teams. The organization of a conference like this one is only possible with the support of many individuals. First of all, the organizers wish to thank the authors for their contributions. We had a very strong and competent Program Committee consisting of 75 members, which ensured that each submission underwent several thorough and timely reviews. The KI 2011 conference team included: – Co-location: Doris F¨ahndrich (TU Berlin) – Workshop Chair: Bernd Schattenberg (University of Ulm) – Tutorial Chair: Sebastian Kupferschmid (University of Freiburg) – Doctorial Consortium Chair: Ren´e Schumann (University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland) – Industry Liaisons: Roman Englert (T-LABs) We extend our thanks to these and all other people and institutions that made this happening a success, especially the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), the Gesellschaft f¨ur Informatik (GI), the Technologie-Zentrum Infor- matik in Bremen (TZI), the Technical University of Berlin, Springer, and the Elsevier Journal for Artificial Intelligence (AIJ).
