form IRIT, Universite Paul Sabatier, Toulouse, France.

There has been, on the one hand, a very positive response to our workshop
as people have underlined both the originality of the topic and its
relevance to many fields. However, many interested participants have
requested a prolongation of the deadline in view of a very high number of
conferences in this year, and their inability to prepare papers by the
original deadline.
Therefore, in view of those requests and suggestions, we have decided to
considerably postpone the deadline for the submission of abstracts, and then
full papers.
Namely, the abstracts (meant as an expression of the author's intent to
participate) are due by March 08, 2002. The authors will be notified on the
acceptance/rejection of their papers by March 15, 2002. The full papers, to
be prepared according to typing instructions (to be provided) are due by May
15, 2002. The reviewers comments and remarks will be sent by May 30, 2002.
The camera-ready typescripts of the papers will be due by June 10, 2002.
The proceedings of the workshop, including all the accepted papers, will be
published by the Springer-Verlag group in the series 'Advances in Soft
Computing'. One copy of the proceedings will be given to each registered
participant. Unfortunately, due to the above mentioned requests for a
prolongation of the deadline, the proceedings may be unavailable at the
workshop, and in such a case will be sent to the registered participants by
the publisher. Additional copies of the proceedings will be available at a
reduced price.
In view of a considerable interest in the topics of the workshop from
various mathematical, scientific, technological, etc. communities, there wil
l be many post-workshop publications including 2-3 special issues of
prestigious journals, and an edited volume to be published by the
Springer-Verlag group in the series 'Studies in Fuzziness and Soft
Computing'. These publications will contain extended versions of papers
presented at the workshop. A final decision will be made by the Program
Committee.
Another suggestion of interested participants was that it would be very
productive to have special sessions and round table discussions.
Participants interested in the organization of a special session(s), and
arranging its (their) appropriate program, are requested to contact the
workshop organizers; a reduction of the registration fee is planned. Round
table discussions are very important and stimulating, and we wish to
encourage interested participants - an appropriate room and presentation
facilities will be offered free of charge.
All information about the conference and a registration form are also
available on Internet. The conference website address is:

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
We are looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
Dr Przemyslaw Grzegorzewski
