The 13th International Conference on AI and Law (ICAIL 2011) will be held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, June 6-10, 2011, at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law under the auspices of the International Association for Artificial Intelligence and Law (IAAIL), an organization devoted to promoting research and development in the field of AI and Law with members throughout the world.

The field of AI and Law is concerned with:

• the study of legal reasoning and argumentation, using computational methods
• the formal representation of norms, normative actions, normative systems and norm-governed societies and multi-agent systems
• the investigation of techniques from advanced information technology, using law as the illustrative domain
• applications of advanced information technology to support tasks in the legal domain.

ICAIL provides a forum for the presentation and discussion of the latest research results and practical applications and stimulates interdisciplinary and international collaboration. Previous ICAIL conferences have been held biennially since 1987, with proceedings published by ACM.
