Abstract
We review the construction of generalized integrable hierarchies of pa rtial differential equations, associated to affine Kac-Moody algebras, that include those considered by Drinfel'd and Sokolov. These hierarc hies can be used to construct new models of 2D quantum or topological gravity, as well as new W-algebras.
