A series of Workshops on Uncertainty Processing (WUPES) was held in the Czech Republic in 1988, 1991, 1994, 1997, 2000, and 2003. Like the previous meetings the forthcoming Workshop will foster creative intellectual activities and the exchange of ideas in an informal atmosphere. Therefore we will keep the number of participants limited (about 40).

Topics
Contributions belonging to the various fields of uncertainty processing are invited. Typical examples are:

• probabilistic modelling (conditional independence models, graphical models, Bayesian networks, models based on coherence principles),
• logical and algebraic modelling (including fuzzy approaches),
• possibilistic approaches,
• models based on belief functions,
• representative applications.

The working character of the meeting is stressed by the fact that we also welcome papers casting new problems and inspiring discussion as well as contributions presenting promising but as yet not finished results.

Important dates
29th May 2006	submission of extended abstracts (two pages) by e-mail to vejnar
15th June 2006	author notification of accepted/rejected papers
5th August 2006	camera-ready copy of accepted papers (extended deadline)

Venue
The conference will be held in the monumental chateau in the middle of Mikulov - a small beautiful town in South Moravia, close to the border with Austria. Located at the foot of Pálava hills, surrounded by rich vineyards and lush verdure, the renowned town of Mikulov will make everyone fall in love with it. The dazzling white rocks with silver cliffs, rich flora and unique fauna and azure sky-this is Mikulov, one of the jewels of Moravia.
