The AICS Conference is Ireland’s primary meeting for those involved in the fields of artificial intelligence and cognitive science. The conference has taken place annually since 1988 and provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and the presentation of research conducted both in Ireland and worldwide. After a rigorous review process, 21 papers were selected for oral presenta- tion, and a further seven for poster presentations. Six shorter submissions were accepted for presentation at a technology demo session. The programcovereda largerangeoftopics,withsubmissionscoveringclassificationtechniques,biolog- icallyinspiredcomputation,naturallanguageprocessing,andapplicationsofAI techniques for the social web and financial markets. Although traditionally the majority of AICS submissions have come from the island of Ireland, AICS 2009 attracted a couple of submissions from farther afield—Mexico and Bulgaria. AICS 2009 continued the tradition of inviting high-profile speakers from the fields. We were delighted to have two high-profile speakers give keynote talks: David R. Millen, from the IBM Watson Research Center, in Cambridge, USA, gaveapaperentitled“UseofEnterpriseSocialSoftwaretoSupportOrganization and People Sensemaking”; and John Riedl, Department of Computer Science, University of Minnesota, gave a talk on “Collective Intelligence in the Social Web.” We are most grateful to both speakers for taking time out of their busy schedules to come to Ireland and attend AICS. Finally, it would not be possible to hold the conference without the gen- erous contributions from our sponsors. We are most grateful to the School of Computer Science and Informatics,UCD (http://www.cs.ucd.ie); to CLARITY (http://www.clarity-centre.org), a Science Foundation Ireland Centre for Sci- ence,EngineeringandTechnology(CSET)involvingUCD,DCUandtheTyndall NationalInstitute; andto CLIQUEwww.cliquecluster.org,aStrategicResearch Cluster(SRC)fundedbyScience FoundationIrelandandinvolvingUCD,DERI at NUIG, IBM, Idiro Technologies and Norkom Technologies. We hope that you will find the papers in these proceedings interesting and stimulating. Here is to the next 20 years of AICS!
