Notification of acceptance: June 15, 2018
Camera-ready submission: August 31, 2018
Challenge: September 18-19, 2018

==Submissions==
The challenge seeks high quality, original papers, potentially referencing online material, and ranging between 5-15 pages. Papers must be original contributions written in English and will be submitted on Easychair under the rule challenge track at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rulemlrr2018.

To ensure high quality, submitted papers will be carefully peer-reviewed by 3 PC members based on clarity and significance of objectives and demonstration of results.
The paper shall address the following:
-Explain the objectives, outcomes, benefits as you are going beyond the state of the art in technology, the application domain, etc.
-Proof the results with a concrete example balancing conciseness and completeness
-Preferably (but not necessarily) embed the tool in a web-based or distributed environment or a mobile environment
-Present end-user interactions, providing an adequate and usable interface that favours a concrete usage of the application
-Mention the availability of the software and data, data interchange, and possible tool extensions

When applicable, provide a web-link to the project site, online demonstration, or download site.

Please upload all submissions in LNCS format (https://www.springer.com/de/it-informatik/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines). Rule Challenge 2018 proceedings will be published as CEUR Proceedings and indexed by SCOPUS.

==Registration==
Registration information will soon become available at the main conference web site. Reduced registration fees will be offered to all student participants of the conference.
