Nomi, Japan

Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic

"Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic"  will be held at Research Center 
for Integrated Science (RCIS), Japan Advanced Institute of Science and 
Technology (JAIST) on 17th and 18th March, 2011. Our aim is to promote 
mutual understandings among researchers on logic working in Asian 
countries, and to establish closer collaborations in future. The scope of 
the Workshop will cover:

   philosophical logic, non-classical logics, algebraic logic, and their 
applications in computer science and cognitive science

During the Workshop, we will have a special session of discussions on 
future collaborations, in particular on research, education and exchange 
of researchers in our region.

The workshop will start from 9:30 of 17th March and will end in the 
afternoon of 18th. The venue is at the RCIS seminar room of the 3rd floor 
of Multidisciplinary Research Center Bldg. of JAIST, which is indicated as 
No.28 in the map of JAIST:

We welcome your participation in both talks and discussions from all areas 
and all levels.
