[comp.ai.digest] Conference - Automatic Deduction

GRAHAM@UMKCVAX2.BITNET (05/06/88)

Mini-Conference on Automatic Deduction

        A mini-conference on automated deduction is being organized.  The focus
is to be on new approaches to automatic deduction based on non-traditional
approaches - topics not well represented at such conferences as CADE.  These
non-traditional frameworks might include both theoretical and experimental
research on proof theory and deduction systems for the following
non-classical logics and extensions to first order logic:

        modal, nonmonotonic, default, tense, and action logics
        circumscription
        the frame problem
        intentional reasoning
        metatheory
        reflective reasoning
        fixed points
        closed world assumption
        non-Cantorean set theories
        quantifier elimination
        possibility, probability, and ontology

        Those interested in helping to organize or participate in such a
mini-conference are invited to contact:
