[Caml-list] IWIL-14 at LPAR-23 - Call for Papers

14th International Workshop on the Implementation of Logics
http://www.eprover.org/EVENTS/IWIL-2020.html

CALL FOR PAPERS
Deadline: April 12th, 2020.

The 14th International Workshop on the Implementation of Logics will be held on
22nd May 2020, in conjunction with the 23rd International Conference on Logic
for Programming, Artificial Intelligence, and Reasoning, in Alicante, Spain.

We are looking for contributions describing implementation techniques for and
implementations of automated reasoning programs, theorem provers for various
logics, logic programming systems, and related technologies. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:

+ Propositional logic and decision procedures, including SMT
+ First-order and higher order logics
+ Non-classical logics, including modal, temporal, description, non-monotonic
reasoning
+ Formal foundations for efficient implementation of logics
+ Data structures and algorithms for the efficient representation and
processing of logical concepts
+ Proof/model search organization and heuristics for logical reasoning systems
+ Data analysis and machine learning approaches to search control
+ Techniques for proof/model search visualization and analysis
+ Reasoning with ontologies and other large theories
+ Implementation of efficient theorem provers and model finders for different
logics
+ System descriptions of logical reasoning systems
+ Issues of reliability, witness generation, and witness verification
+ Evaluation and benchmarking of provers and other logic-based systems
+ I/O standards and communication between reasoning systems

We are particularly interested in contributions that help the community to
understand how to build useful and powerful reasoning systems, and how to apply
them in practice.

Researchers interested in participating are invited to submit a position
statement (2 pages), a short paper (up to 5 pages), or a full paper (up to 15
pages) via the EasyChair page for IWIL2020.
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iwil2020

Submissions will be refereed by the program committee, which will select a
balanced program of high-quality contributions.

Submissions should be in standard-conforming PDF. Final versions will be
required to be submitted in LaTeX using the easychair.cls class file. The
proceedings will be published as a volume of Kalpa Publications in Computing.

Important Dates:

+ Submission of papers/abstracts: April 12th, 2020
+ Notification of acceptance: April 30th, 2020
+ Camera ready versions due: May 15th, 2020

[Caml-list] UNIF 2020 - Call for Papers

====================================================
Call for Papers
UNIF 2020
The 34th International Workshop on Unification
June 29, 2020, Paris, France
http://unif2020.org/
====================================================

UNIF 2020 is the 34th event in a series of international meetings devoted to
unification theory and its applications. Unification is concerned with the
problem of making two terms equal, finding solutions for equations or making
formulas equivalent. It is a fundamental process used in a number of fields
of computer science, including automated reasoning, term rewriting, logic
programming, natural language processing, program analysis, types, etc.
Traditionally, the scope of the UNIF workshops has covered the topic of
unification in a broad sense. Topics of interest to this forum include, but
are not limited to:

- Unification algorithms, calculi and implementations
- Equational unification and unification modulo theories
- Admissibility of Inference Rules
- Unification in modal, fuzzy, temporal and description logics
- Anti-unification/generalization
- Semi-unification
- Narrowing
- Formalization of unification
- Matching Problems
- Applications
- Unification in Special Theories
- Higher-Order Unification
- Combination problems
- Constraint Solving
- Disunification
- Complexity Issues
- Type Checking and reconstruction

The International Workshop on Unification (UNIF) is a yearly forum for
researchers in unification theory and related fields to meet old and new
colleagues, to present recent (even unfinished) work, and to discuss new
ideas and trends. It is also a good opportunity for young researchers and
scientists working in related areas to get an overview of the state of the
art in unification theory.

The 34th International Workshop on Unification is part of "Paris Nord Summer
of LoVe 2020", a joint event on LOgic and VErification at Université Paris 1,
made of Petri Nets 2020, IJCAR 2020, FSCD 2020, and over 20 satellite events.
UNIF 2020 will be a satellite workshop of The International Joint Conference
on Automated Reasoning (IJCAR 2020).

------------------------------------------
** Submission Instructions
-------------------------------------------
Following the tradition of UNIF, we call for submissions of abstracts (5 pages)
in EasyChair style, to be submitted electronically as PDF through the EasyChair
submission site:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=unif2020

Abstracts will be evaluated by the Programme Committee (if necessary with
support from external reviewers) regarding their significance for the workshop.
We will allow work presented/submitted in/to another conference.

Accepted abstracts will be presented at the workshop and included in the
informal proceedings of the workshop, available in electronic form as a
technical report in the RISC-Linz Report Series from the Research Institute
for Symbolic Computation, Johannes Kepler University.

Based on the number and quality of submissions we will decide whether to
organize a special journal issue.

-----------------------------
** Important Dates

Submission of titles and abstracts: April 13, 2020
Submission of full paper: April 20, 2020
Author notification: May 25, 2020
