For a special issue of Argument and Computation on Rhetorical Figures in Computational
Argument Studies, we seek papers on the detection, classification, and use of rhetorical figures in
argument studies, in ways either executed or facilitated by computers.
Submissions should not exceed 10,000 words and should be submitted with an abstract of no
more than 250 words. Argument and Computation is published by IOS Press, and submission

If submissions are found suitable for further consideration, they will be subjected to rigorous
double-blind peer review by independent, anonymous referees.
Argument & Computation (A&C) is a world-leading journal focusing on the interaction and
cross-fertilisation between the fields of argumentation theory and computer science. Its
readership includes scholars and practitioners from the fields artificial intelligence, multi-agent
systems, computer science, logic, philosophy, argumentation theory, psychology, cognitive
science, game theory, and economics. It is abstracted and indexed by British Library Inside,
Cambridge Scientific Abstracts, EBSCO Databases and Scopus.
Please send your submission by email to either of the special-issue editors:
Randy Harris

University of Waterloo, Waterloo ON Canada
raha@uwaterloo.ca
Artificial Intelligence Group
Cheriton School of Computer Science

Note: While there is no official abstract deadline, since we do not want to indicate acceptance
(or rejection) in even a quasi-formal way on the basis of a prospectus, the editors are more than
happy to receive abstracts or preliminary drafts at any time up to 1 November 2016.
