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: Joseph Halpern, Cornell University Martin Otto, Technische Universitt Darmstadt Mark Reynolds, University of Western Australia Gabriel Sandu, University of Helsinki Scope ----- Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original and unpublished research in any area of logic and applications.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. ************************************************************************ Deadline for Submission (in electronic form): 13 August 2012 Notification to Authors: 1 October 2012 Deadline for camera-ready papers: 22 October 2012 ************************************************************************ Submission ---------- Authors may submit drafts of full papers or extended abstracts.
