The 2003 International Conference on Automated Planning and Scheduling (ICAPS-03) was held 9 to 13 June 2003 in Trento, Italy. It was chaired by Enrico Giunchiglia (University of Genova), Nicola Muscettola (NASA Ames), and Dana Nau (University of Maryland). Piergiorgio Bertoli and Marco Benedetti (both from ITC-IRST) were the local chair and the workshop-tutorial coordination chair, respectively. It is the result of merging two highly successful biennial conferences: (1) the International Conference on AI Planning and Scheduling (AIPS) and (2) the European Conference on Planning (ECP)--which alternately occurred beginning in 1991. The ICAPS-03 technical program took place from 11 to 13 June 2003.
