Preface
The biennial ECSQARU conference is a major forum for advances in the theory and practice of reasoning under uncertainty. Contributions are expected to come from both researchers who are interested in advancing the technology and practitioners who use uncertainty techniques in applications. The scope of ECSQARU includes, but is not limited to, fundamental issues, representation, inference, learning, and decision making in qualitative and numeric paradigms. Previous ECSQARU conferences were held in Marseille (1991), Granada (1993), Fribourg (1995), Bonn (1997), London (1999), Toulouse (2001), Aalborg (2003), Barcelona (2005), Hammamet (2007), and Verona (2009). The 11th European Conference on Symbolic and Quantitative Approaches to Reasoning with Uncertainty (ECSQARU 2011) was held in Belfast, UK, from June 29 to July 1, 2011, with a particular focus on unifying logic and uncertainty reasoning approaches for solving complex problems. ECSQARU 2011 also featured PhD Forum Posters and the Workshop on “Uncertainty Reasoning and Mul
