     logics; Dynamic logic with program specifications 

The workshop is intended for PhD students and researchers.  Participants  are 
encouraged to give talks in "wild cat sessions". 

The workshop will take place in Pohjois-Savon Kansanopisto, 10  km  south  of 
Kuopio. There is no participation fee, but full boarding in the college costs
