*FLoC 2018 ? The 2018 Federated Logic Conference* 6-19 July 2018 Oxford, England UK http://www.floc2018.org/ In 1996, as part of its Special Year on Logic and Algorithms, DIMACS hosted the first Federated Logic Conference (FLoC). It was modelled after the successful Federated Computer Research Conference (FCRC), and synergetically brought together conferences that apply logic to computer science. We are pleased to announce the seventh Federated Logic Conference (FLoC'18) to be held in Oxford, UK, in July 2018, at the Mathematical Institute and the Blavatnik School of Government at the University of Oxford. FLoC 2018 brings together nine major international conferences related to mathematical logic and computer science: - International Conference on Computer Aided Verification <http://i-cav.org/> (CAV) - IEEE Computer Security Foundations Symposium <http://www.ieee-security.org/CSFWweb/> (CSF) - International Symposium on Formal Methods <http://fm2016.cs.ucy.ac.cy/> (FM) - International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction <http://fscdconference.org/> (FSCD) - International Conference on Logic Programming <http://www.logicprogramming.org/ALP/conferences/> (ICLP) - International Joint Conference on Automated Reasoning <http://www.ijcar.org/> (IJCAR) - International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interactive_Theorem_Proving_%28conference%29> (ITP) - Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science <http://lics.rwth-aachen.de/> (LICS) - International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing <http://www.satisfiability.org/> (SAT) Plus FLoC workshops (7-8 July, 13 July, and 18-19 July) and the School on Foundations of Programming and Software Systems (FoPSS, 30 June ? 6 July). We have already begun confirming exciting lineup of speakers <http://www.floc2018.org/speakers/>, including keynotes by Shafi Goldwasser <https://www.csail.mit.edu/user/733> and Georges Gonthier <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges_Gonthier>; plenary lectures by Peter O?Hearn <http://www0.cs.ucl.ac.uk/staff/p.ohearn/> and Byron Cook <http://www0.cs.ucl.ac.uk/staff/b.cook/>; and a public lecture by Stuart Russell <https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/%7Erussell/> at the Sheldonian Theatre. We will also hold an Oxford Union-style debate on ethics for autonomous robots. There will be banquets, receptions and other social events in historic venues across the city: see www.floc2018.org/social-events/ for the latest updates. The call for workshop proposals will be issued shortly, and calls for papers will be issued in early 2018. We will keep www.floc2018.org up-to-date so please do check back for further information on talks, workshops, conferences and social events. FLoC'18 Steering Committee General Chair: Moshe Y.
