The European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI), formerly the Summer Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Simulation of Behaviour (AISB), is Europe’s premier archival venue for presenting scientific results in Artificial Intelligence.
The conference is jointly organized by the European Association for Artificial Intelligence (EurAI) and one of its European countries’ member associations. Until 2022 it was a biennial event.
Relevant “Knowledge Management” Workshops:
- Knowledge Management and Organizational Memories (1998-2007; in odd years at IJCAI)
- Agent-Mediated Knowledge Management (2004; in 2003: Symposium @ AAAI Spring Symposium, in 2005: Workshop @ AAMAS)
- Knowledge Management for Healthcare Processes aka Knowledge Management for Health Care Procedures (K4HelP) (2008)
- Artificial Intelligence for Knowledge Management (2012, (2018); in 2014: Workshop @ KAM; since 2015: Workshop @ IJCAI)
