The Sixth International Workshop on Nonmonotonic Reasoning was held 10 to 12 June 1996 in Timberline, Oregon. The aim of the workshop was to bring together active researchers interested in nonmonotonic reasoning to discuss current research, results, and problems of both a theoretical and a practical nature.

Intelligence (AAAI), was held 10 to 12 have now become particularly June 1996 in Timberline, Oregon. Finally, we Netherlands, the United States, and would like to acknowledge the support Venezuela. The papers described new of AAAI for student travel funds. Moises Goldszmidt received his Ph.D. in His email address is moises@ Mathematical Institute in Russia.

To assess the state of the art and identify issues requiring further investigation, a workshop on qualitative and abstract probability was held during the third week of November 1993. This workshop brought together a mix of active researchers from academia, industry, and government interested in the practical and theoretical impact of these abstractions on techniques, methods, and tools for solving complex AI tasks. The result was a set of specific recommendations on the most promising and important avenues for future research.
