We survey the AI research carried out in Greece recently. A milestone for AI research in Greece came in 1988, when the Hellenic Artificial Intelligence Society (EETN) was founded as a nonprofit scientific organization devoted to organizing and promoting AI research in Greece and abroad. EETN is an affiliated society of the European Association for Artificial Intelligence (EurAI, formerly known as ECCAI). One of the many roles of EETN is the organization of conferences, workshops, summer schools, and other events, such as the Hellenic Conference on Artificial Intelligence (SETN). The first SETN was Science with a team well grounded in KR.

Various strategies and techniques have been proposed for the generation of questions/answers tests in Intelligent Tutoring Systems by using OWL (Web Ontology Language) ontolo- gies. Currently there have been no known methods to utilize SWRL rules for this task. This paper presents a system and a set of strategies that can be used in order to automatically generate multiple choice questions from SWRL rules. The aim of the proposed framework is to support further research in the area and to be a testbed for the development of more advanced assessment techniques.
