Foreword
AISC 2006, the 8th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Computation, was held on the campus of Beihang University, China, in the golden autumn of 2006. On behalf of the Organizing Committee and Beihang University, I had the pleasure to welcome the participants of this conference. The AISC series of specialized biennial conferences was founded in 1992 by Jacques Calmet and John Campbell with initial title “Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Mathematical Computing” (AISMC) and the previous seven conferences in this series were held in Karlsruhe (AISMC-1, 1992), Cambridge (AISMC-2, 1994), Steyr (AISMC-3, 1996), Plattsburgh, NY (AISC 1998), Madrid (AISC 2000), Marseille (AISC 2002), and Hagenberg, Austria (AISC 2004). Artificial intelligence and symbolic computation are two views and approaches for automating (mathematical) problem solving. They are based on heuristics and mathematical algorithmics, respectively, and each of them can be applied to the other. The AISC series of conferences has not only provided a lively forum f
