Papers are invited in the following or related fields: Theorem Proving Logic Programming Unification Deductive Databases Term Rewriting Theorem Proving for Non-Standard Logics Program Verification Inference Systems Program Synthesis Applications {/it Long papers} (up to 5000 words) are for established results. {/it Short papers} (up to 2500 words) are for succinct results of ongoing research. Also solicited are system summaries describing working reasoning systems (up to 500 words) and problem sets providing realistic yet interesting challenges for automated reasoning systems. Six copies should be sent to arrive before November 23rd, 1987 to Ewing Lusk and Ross Overbeek, chairmen CADE-9 Mathematics and Computer Science Division Argonne National Laboratory Argonne, IL 60439_ ------------------------------ Date: Sun 13 Sep 87 20:51:03-PDT From: Chuck Restivo <Restivo@Sushi.Stanford.EDU> Subject: FGCS '88 FGCS '88 Call For Papers International Conference on Fifth Generation Computer Systems 1988 Tokyo, Japan 28 November - 2 December 1988 FGCS '88 is an international conference following on from the last conference, FGCS'84. The conference will last for five days. The first two will be primarily devoted to reporting FGCS project's results while the last three will involve technical sessions for presentation of papers and related discussions. The scope of technical sessions includes the technical aspects of new generation computer systems which are particularly within the framework of knowledge information processing, logic programming and parallel architectures. This conference is intended to promote interaction among researchers in all disciplines related to fifth generation computer technology. Of special interest are papers discussing future directions or prospects of new generation computing. The topics of interest include the following: Software Architecture Logic/functional/object-oriented Inference machines Parallel programming languages Knowledge base machines and methodologies Parallel Programming verification/debugging VLSI Program analysis/transformation Human-machine Applications Foundations Knowledge based systems Automated Reasoning NL understanding Theory of parallel computation Real-time systems Formal Semantics Paralle systems Foundations of AI Games and simulation New Generation prospects Social Impact of FGCS Authors should send six copies of manuscripts to: Prof. Hidehiko Tanaka FGCS'88 Program Chairman ICOT MITA Kolusai Bldg.21F 1-4-28 Mita, Minato-ku Tokyo 108, Japan Papers must be received by 10 May, 1988 Papers are restricted to 20 double-spaced (about 5000 words) including figures. Each paper must contain a 200-250 word abstract. Papers must be written and presented in English. Papers will be reviewed by international referees. Authors will be notified of acceptance by 15 July 1988 and will be given instructions for final preparation of their papers at that time. Camera ready papers for the proceedings should be sent to the program Chairman prior to 15 September 1988. General Information Venue: Tokyo Prince Hotel, Tokyo, Japan General sessions Keynote speeches Report on progress of Japan's 5th Generation project Panel discussions Technical sessions (parallel sessions) Presentation by invited speakers Presentation of submitted papers Special events Some of the research results including parallel software and hardware systems, natural language understanding systems and expert systems will be demonstrated at the conference site.
