Ramasamy Uthurusamy was the program chair, and Barbara Hayes-Roth was the program cochair. IAAI-99 was a special occasion that provided an opportunity to reflect on a decade of IAAI conferences and contemplate the potential contributions in the coming decade. In addition to the three invited talks that specifically addressed these areas, IAAI-99 showcased some exciting and innovative applications. Although all the IAAI-99 papers and talks were certainly interesting and important, we present in this special issue of AI Magazine only a select subset because of page and other limitations. We include two invited talks and four applications as a snapshot of IAAI-99.
