CfP special issue of JoLLI: Euler and Venn diagrams, Deadline: 30 Oct 2014

Call for Papers: Euler and Venn diagrams

Special issue of the Journal of Logic, Language and Information (JOLLI)

Overview

Euler and Venn diagrams have been widely studied over
recent years and their role in logical reasoning and information
visualization is now prominent. Venn diagrams formed the basis of
what is widely regarded to be the first sound and complete
diagrammatic logic, called Venn-I, developed by Sun-Joo Shin in
the 1990s. Since then, substantial research has been conducted on
Euler and Venn diagrams, spanning logic, cognitive science and
philosophy.  We will consider submissions that focus on any
aspect of Euler and Venn diagrams research, that falls within the
scope of JOLLI, and encourage submissions from any
discipline. The proposed special issue will bring together a
valuable collection of papers for researchers working in this
area.

Submissions

We solicit papers consisting of original research
contributions. Submitted papers that extend previously published
conference papers should be submitted with a cover note to the
editors explaining the contribution beyond the earlier
version. It is expected that substantial new material is included
in the submission to the special issue.

All submitted papers should fall within the scope of JOLLI as
well as the scope of the special issue.  When you submit your paper,
please include contact details (including an email address) for two
potential reviewers.

More information, including formatting guidelines and details of the
scope of JOLLI can be found on our web page:
