M4M-4 "Methods for Modalities", Berlin-Adlershof (Germany), December 2005

The workshop "Methods for Modalities" (M4M) aims to bring together
researchers interested in developing algorithms, verification methods and
tools based on modal logics. Here the term "modal logics" is conceived
broadly, including description logic, guarded fragments, conditional
logic, temporal and hybrid logic, etc.

   To stimulate interaction and transfer of expertise, M4M will feature a
number of invited talks by leading scientists, research presentations
aimed at highlighting new developments, and submissions of system
demonstrations. We strongly encourage young researchers and students to
submit papers and posters, especially for experimental and prototypical
software tools which are related to modal logics.

Invited speakers:
   Fran?ois Laroussinie, ENS Cachan and CNRS
   Martin Lange, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit?t
   Wim Martens, Hasselt University
   Boris Motik, Universit?t Karlsruhe
   Boris Konev, University of Liverpool
   Uwe Scheffler, Humboldt Universit?t

   Regular papers should not exceed the length of 12 pages; short papers
are up to six pages of length, and posters and tools can be presented on
two pages of text. Proceedings will appear online and as a Humboldt
university report. Depending on the submissions, papers may be selected to
appear in a special issue of an appropriate journal. Submission is by
internet or email. You can (preferrably) upload your PostScript or PDF
contribution to the address http://www.easychair.org/M4M-4/submit/ or
(alternatively) send it to m4m-4@first.fraunhofer.de.

   The workshop will take place in Berlin - Adlershof, Germany, which is
one of the worlds largest science and technology areas, comprising twelve
research institutes, six faculties of the Humboldt University of Berlin,
and more than 370 high tech companies. It is hosted by FIRST, the
Fraunhofer Institute of Computer Architecture and Software Technology, in
collaboration with the computer science institute of Humboldt University.
