CALL FOR PAPERS
EELP 2020
The Second Workshop on Epistemic Extensions of Logic Programming
September 18-24, 2020
Rende, Italy
https://www.semsys.aau.at/events/eelp2020/
==============================================================================
AFFILIATION
This workshop is part of the International Conference of Logic
Programming (ICLP) 2020. In keeping with the main conference, the workshop
will be held as a fully virtual event this year.
AIMS AND SCOPE
Several successful logic programming languages, evidenced by the
availability
of a multitude of solvers, industrial applications, and an active
research
community, have been proposed in the literature. Researchers have long
recognized the need for epistemic operators in these languages. This
led
to a
flurry of research on this topic, and renewed interest in recent years. A
central question is that of the definition of a rigorous and intuitive
semantics for such epistemic operators, which is still subject of ongoing
research. Notions of equivalence, structural properties, and the
inter-relationships between logic programming languages and established
logics
are all subjects being actively investigated. Another important topic is
that
of practical solvers to compute answers to logic programs that contain
epistemic operators. Several solvers are actively developed, building on
established solvers, or using rewriting-based approaches. For practical
applications, additional language features are actively explored in
order to
be able to apply epistemic extensions of logic programming langauges to
practical problems. The goal of this workshop is to facilitate
discussions
regarding these topics and a productive exchange of ideas.
Topics of interests include (but are not limited to):
- Semantics of epistemic operators in logic programming
- New methods for solving epistemic extensions of logic programs
- Computational properties of epistemic extensions of logic programs
- Relating epistemic extensions of logic programs with other logic-based
formalisms
- Practical applications of logic programming extended with epistemic
extensions
- Additional language features
- Multi-paradigm problem solving involving epistemic extensions of logic
programming
- Evaluation and comparison of logic programs with epistemic extensions
to
other paradigms
- Grounding of non-ground logic programs programs with epistemic
extensions
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
We welcome two categories of submissions:
- Full Papers, that is, original, unpublished research (at most 15
pages),
and
- Extended Abstracts of already published research (at most 2 pages).
All submissions should be in the Springer LNCS format.
Paper submission will be handled electronically by means of the Easychair
system. All submissions will be peer-reviewed. The submission page is
available here: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=eelp2020.
EELP is a non-archival venue and there will be no published proceedings.
However, informal proceedings will be provided and the papers will be
posted
informally on the workshop website. Submissions to other conferences and
journals both in parallel and subsequent to EELP 2020 are allowed.
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper submission: August 7, 2020 AoE
Notification: August 31, 2020
Camera-ready: September 11, 2020
Workshop Dates: September 18-24, 2020, as a workshop of ICLP 2020
