Leila Amgoud, CV
Leila Amgoud is a CNRS researcher at IRIT lab of Paul Sabatier University, Toulouse - France since 2001. Before, she was a researcher in the Agent Applications, Research and Technology (ART) Department of Computer Science of Liverpool University. She received a PhD degree in the area of Artificial Intelligence in 1996 from the University of Toulouse in July 1999. Her research interests include non-monotonic reasoning, argumentation-based reasoning, information fusion and inconsistency management, modeling interactions between autonmous agents (negotiation, persuasion, Agent communication languages). She has served on the program comitee in different workshops on argumentation.

Claudette Cayrol, CV
Claudette Cayrol is a Professor of Computer Science at the University Paul Sabatier in
Toulouse (France). She received a PhD in 1986 with a thesis about the handling of imprecision and uncertainty in information systems, and the "Habilitation u Diriger des Recherches" in 1995, both from the University Paul Sabatier. Her current research interests are in defeasible reasoning, classical and non-classical logics, inconsistency-handling and argumentation-based reasoning.
