CALL FOR PAPERS
HISTORY OF THE SYMPOSIUM
The Panhellenic Logic Symposium, a biennial scientific event established in
1997, aims to promote interaction and cross-fertilization among different areas
of logic. Originally conceived as a way of bringing together the many logicians
of Hellenic descent throughout the world, it has evolved into an international
forum for the communication of state-of-the-art advances in logic. The
symposium is open to researchers worldwide who work in logic broadly conceived.
The Eighth Panhellenic Logic Symposium will be hosted by the Department of
Computer Science at the University of Ioannina.
PROGRAM OF THE SYMPOSIUM
The scientific program of the symposium will consist of one-hour long invited
talks, three-hour long tutorials, and twenty-five-minute presentations of
accepted contributed papers. There will also be special opportunities for
students to give short talks, and receive comments on work in progress.

CALL FOR PAPERS

If possible, each submitted paper should be classified in one of the following
areas (in alphabetical order):
- Algebraic and Categorical Methods in Logic

All submitted papers will be reviewed by the scientific committee of the
symposium, who will make final decisions on acceptance or rejection. During
the symposium, each accepted paper will be presented by one of its authors,
with five extra minutes for questions. Authors of submitted papers will be
notified of the decision by early May 2011. Camera-ready extended abstracts
will be due by the end of May for inclusion in the symposium proceedings which
will be distributed to all participants.
