Proceedings of the 22nd International Configuration Workshop

The 2020 Workshop on Configuration continues the series of successful workshops organized within IJCAI, AAAI, and ECAI since 1999. Starting from 2013, the workshop was held independently from major conferences. Even in this 22nd edition, beside researchers from a variety of different fields, it attracted a significant number of industrial participants from major configurator vendors as well as from end-users. The 2020 Workshop on Configuration is a standalone two-day event. It was planned to takes place in Vicenza, Italy at the Department of Management and Engineering of Padova University. Due to COVID19 pandemic, it has been moved online. A total of 18 papers were selected for presentation on the Configuration Workshop. All papers underwent to full paper blind review with a minimum of two independent reviewers per paper. All papers have been substantially changed to comply with the reviewers’ observations. The themes of the technical sessions are knowledge representation & reasoning, peculiar technologies for configuration (machine learning, conversational agents (chatboats and voiceboats), social software, Microsoft excel), configuration of products in use (reconfiguration, adaptation, renovation, maintenance, repair), business applications with a special focus on the provision of empirical data to depict the state of the art on configuration practices.
