TEXT is a forum for interdisciplinary research on all aspects of discourse (e.g., the situational and historical nature of text production, the cognitive and sociocultural processes of language practice, participant-based structures of negotiation and linguistic selection). It aims to challenge through critique and debate the tenets of discourse research across disciplinary boundaries, both in terms of theoretical output and practical outcomes; to encourage dissemination of scholarly work in under-represented domains (e.g. communication science, artificial intelligence, forensic linguistics, rhetoric and composition, stylistics, narratives, institutional ethnography, sociology of science); to remain independent of any individual or group ideology, while encouraging in equal measure the use of discourse to challenge discourse orthodoxy.

The International Conference on Cognitive Modeling brings together researchers who develop computational models to explain and predict cognitive data. The core theme of the 2004 conference was "Integrating Computational Models," encompassing an integration of diverse data through models of coherent phenomena; integration across modeling approaches; and integration of teaching and modeling. This text presents the proceedings of that conference. The International Conference on Cognitive Modeling 2004 sought to grow the discipline of computational cognitive modeling by providing a sophisticated modeling audience for cutting-edge researchers, in addition to offering a forum for integrating insights across alternative modeling approaches in both basic research and applied settings, and a venue for planning the future growth of the discipline. The meeting included a careful peer-review process of 6-page paper submissions; poster-abstracts to include late-breaking work in the area; prizes for best papers; a doctoral consortium; and competitive modeling symposia that compare and contrast different approaches to the same phenomena.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International and Interdisciplinary Conference on Modeling and Using Context, CONTEXT 2005, held in Paris, France in July 2005. The 42 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 120 submissions. The papers presented deal with the interdisciplinary topic of modeling and using context from various points of view, ranging through cognitive science, formal logic, artifical intelligence, computational intelligence, philosophical and psychological aspects, and information processing. Highly general philosophical and theoretical issues are complemented by specific applications in various fields.
