 --------------------------------------------


The IEEE Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence is envisioned to

among academics, industry, and government agencies. It focuses on methodologies 
that can add the development of AI, as well as the demanding issues involved 
in turning these methodologies into practical tools. Thus, this conference 
encompasses the technical aspects of specifying, developing, and evaluating 
theoretical and applied mechanisms that can serve as tools for developing 
intelligent systems and pursuig artificial intelligence applications.
