Apologies for multiple copies<br>
<br>
As the ICAPS conference was postponed, we decided to further extend
the submission deadline for PlanRob WS.<br>
<br>
We are currently "planning and scheduling" to figure out new
deadlines. <br>
We will send soon more detailed information. <br>
<br>
<b>For the moment, the submission via easychair will remain active.</b><br>
<br>
Details will be available on ICAPS website<br>

<p class="p1">Topics and Objectives</p>
<p class="p1">***************</p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">AI Planning & Scheduling (P&S) methods are
crucial to enable intelligent</p>
<p class="p1">robots to perform autonomous, flexible, and
interactive behaviors, but a</p>
<p class="p1">deep integration into robotic architectures is
needed for their effective </p>
<p class="p1">deployment. This requires a close collaboration
between researchers from </p>
<p class="p1">both the AI and the Robotics communities. In this
direction, this workshop </p>
<p class="p1">aims at constituting a stable, long-term forum
where researchers from both </p>
<p class="p1">the P&S and the Robotics communities can
openly discuss about relevant issues, </p>
<p class="p1">research and development progress, future
directions and open challenges </p>
<p class="p1">related to P&S when applied to Robotics.<span
class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">The PlanRob workshop is proposed in synergy with
ICAPS tracks. We are trying </p>
<p class="p1">to explore different ways to synchronize with
Humans and Robotics Track but </p>
<p class="p1">also with Knowledge Engineering, Integrated
Execution and System Architecture </p>
<p class="p1">track. The PlanRob WS aims to maintain a more
informal forum where also more </p>
<p class="p1">preliminary/visionary works can be discussed
stimulating direct and open </p>
<p class="p1">interactions.</p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">Topics of interest include but not limited to the
following:</p>
<p class="p1">- planning domain representations for robotics
applications;</p>
<p class="p1">- mission, path, and motion planning for robots;</p>
<p class="p1">- integrated planning and execution in robotic
architectures;</p>
<p class="p1">- planning and coordination methods for
multi-robot teams;</p>
<p class="p1">- mixed-initiative planning and sliding autonomy
for robotic systems;</p>
<p class="p1">- human-aware planning and execution in
human-robot interaction;</p>
<p class="p1">- adversarial action planning in competitive
robotic domains;</p>
<p class="p1">- formal methods for robot planning and control;</p>
<p class="p1">- P&S methods for optimization and adaptation
in robotics;</p>
<p class="p1">- benchmark planning domains for robots;</p>
<p class="p1">- optimizing behavior in large scale automated or
semi-automated systems;</p>
<p class="p1">- real-world planning applications for autonomous
and intelligent robots.</p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">Important Dates</p>
<p class="p1">***************</p>
<p class="p1">Paper submission: March 7, 2020</p>
<p class="p1">Notification of acceptance: April 1st, 2020</p>
<p class="p1">Camera-ready version due:<span class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>TBD</p>
<p class="p1">Workshop Date: June 14 or June 15, 2020</p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">Submissions</p>
<p class="p1">***************</p>
<p class="p1">There are two types of submissions: short position
statements and regular </p>
<p class="p1">papers. Position papers are a maximum of 4 (four)
pages. Regular papers </p>
<p class="p1">are a maximum of 10 (ten) pages.<span
class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">All papers should be typeset in the AAAI style,
described at: </p>

href="http://www.aaai.org/Publications/Author/author.php"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://www.aaai.org/Publications/Author/author.php</a>
removing AAAI copyright. </p>
<p class="p1">Accepted papers will be published on the workshop
website and printed as a hard-copy.</p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">The papers must be submitted in a PDF format via
EasyChair system<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p class="p1">(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">Notice that papers under review (e.g., submitted
to IJCAI-2020) are also welcome, </p>
<p class="p1">however, in order to avoid potential conflicts
these manuscripts should be </p>
<p class="p1">prepared as anonymous submissions for a double
blind reviewing process.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p class="p2"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">The organizers will investigate the availability
of journal editors in order </p>
<p class="p1">to invite a selection of accepted papers from the
workshop to a special issue </p>
<p class="p1">or post-proceedings volume.</p>
