Abstract / Description of output

Among the tasks to be carried out by conference organizers is the one of assigning reviewers to papers. That problem is known in the literature as the Conference Paper Assignment Problem (CPAP). In this paper we approach the solution of a reasonably rich variant of the CPAP by means of Answer Set Programming (ASP). ASP is an established logic-based programming paradigm which has been successfully applied for solving complex problems arising in Artificial Intelligence. We show how the CPAP can be elegantly encoded by means of an ASP program, and we analyze the results of an experiment, conducted on real-world data, that outlines the viability of our solution.
