An important note about the JOURNAL NAME

The original journal's name was "Frontiers of Knowledge Representation," unfortunately, another journal uses the label "Frontiers of..." in its publication. Then, we maintained our journal's name in the first phase - until 2024, vol.1 - and from 2024, vol.2, the journal was renamed to Advances in Knowledge Representation.
