Printedonacid-freepaper SPIN:10871770 06/3142 543210 Preface AI 2002 is the 15th in the series of annual conferences on artificial intelligence held in Australia. This conference is the major forum for the presentation of artificialintelligenceresearchinAustralia,encompassingallaspectsofthatbroad field.Ithastraditionallyattractedsignificantinternationalparticipation,aswas again the case in 2002. ThecurrentvolumeisbasedontheproceedingsofAI2002.Fulllengthversi- onsofallsubmittedpaperswererefereedbyaninternationalprogramcommittee, each paper receiving at least two independent reviews. As a result, 62 papers were selected for oral presentation in the conference, and 12 more for poster presentation, out of 117 submissions. One-page abstracts of the posters are pu- blished in this volume, along with the full papers selected for oral presentation. In addition to the scientific track represented here, the conference featured a program of tutorials and workshops, and plenary talks by five invited spea- kers: Peter van Beek (University of Waterloo, Canada), Eric Bonabeau (Ico- systemCorporation,USA),MingLi(UniversityofCaliforniaatSantaBarbara), Bernhard Nebel (Albert-Ludwigs-Universita¨t Freiburg, Germany) and Zoltan Somogyi (University of Melbourne, Australia). It was colocated with a number ofrelatedevents:anAIApplicationsSymposium,the6thAustralia-JapanJoint Workshop on Intelligent and Evolutionary Systems, the Australasian Workshop onComputationalLogic(AWCL),andtheannualconferenceoftheAustralasian Association for Logic (AAL). AI 2002 was presented by the Australian National University, the University of Canberra, and the University of New South Wales through the Australian Defence Force Academy. In addition to those institutions, we wish to thank the many people whose contribution made the conference possible, starting with the Program Committee and panel of reviewers who produced over 200 reviews of papers under time constraints. We also wish to thank our colleagues on the Conference Committee chaired by John Lloyd, and especially the Organizing Chair, Hussein Abbass.
