AIJ Funding Opportunities for Promoting AI Research

Using funds from the royalties it receives, the AI Journal is pleased to
announce a new opportunity for the AI community to benefit from these with
the aim of promoting AI Research.

In providing this funding (in the order of US$250k p.a.), AIJ aims to:

- promote and raise awareness of AI research and practice;

- encourage the timely and widespread dissemination of AI research
results, techniques, and tools;

- promote interaction and exchange of ideas between AI researchers,
practitioners, and students;

- promote the exploitation of AI research results, techniques, and tools.

For further details, including the application procedure, see www.aijd.org.
(direct link: http://www.ida.liu.se/ext/aijd/funding-final.pdf).

This venture supplements the initiative announced in 2008 to allow any
member of the AI community not otherwise able to access the AI journal to
do so for free; for details see www.aijd.org
