Chennai, India

5th INDIAN CONFERENCE ON LOGIC AND ITS APPLICATIONS
 				January 10--12, 2013
 			The Institute of Mathematical Sciences,
 				Chennai, India

 				CALL FOR PAPERS

ALI, the Association for Logic in India, announces the next edition of
its biennial (International) Indian Conference on Logic and its Applications
(ICLA), to be held at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai,
from January 10 to 12, 2013.

The conference proceedings are expected to be published in the Springer
Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

ICLA is a forum for bringing together researchers from a wide variety of
fields that formal logic plays a significant role in, along with
mathematicians, philosophers and logicians studying foundations of
formal logic in itself.  The conference has also included studies in
systems of logic in the Indian tradition, and historical research on
logic. See the ALI page (http://ali.cmi.ac.in) for information on past
events as well as updates on this conference.

The earlier events in this series featured many eminent logicians as
invited speakers, and we are pleased to announce that this year's
speakers will include:

     Mirna Dzamonja, University of East Anglia

     Joseph Halpern, Cornell University

     Agi Kurucz, King's College London

     Martin Otto, Technische Universitt Darmstadt

     Mark Reynolds, University of Western Australia

     Adriane Rini, Massey University

     Gabriel Sandu, University of Helsinki


Scope
-----

Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original and unpublished
research in any area of logic and applications. Papers on topics of
current interest in pure and applied logic, foundations and philosophy
of mathematics and the sciences, set theory, model theory, proof theory,
areas of theoretical computer science, artificial intelligence and
other disciplines which are of direct interest to mathematical and
philosophical logic, as well as articles on the relationship between
logic and other branches of knowledge, or on history of logic,
are welcome.

Submitted papers will be peer-reviewed and accepted papers will be
published in the conference proceedings, which will be made available at
the time of the conference. The conference proceedings will appear as a
volume in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.
