CALL FOR PAPERS THIRD ANNUAL SYMPOSIUM ON LOGIC IN COMPUTER SCIENCE 5-8 July 1988 University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, Scotland Concepts and methods from Logic are influential throughout Computer Science. The Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS) aims to attract broad participation of Computer Scientists, whose design or research activities involve Logic, and Logicians interested in Computer Science. Suggested (but not exclusive) topics of interest include: abstract data types, computer theorem proving, concurrency, data base theory, knowledge representation, finite model theory, lambda and combinatory calculi, logic programming, modal and temporal logics, program logic and semantics, software specification, types and categories, constructive mathematics, verification. PROGRAM COMMITTEE: M. Dezani, Y. Gurevich (chair), J. Halpern, C.A.R. Hoare, G. Huet, P. Kanellakis, J.-L.Lassez, J. Mitchell, R. Platek, G. Plotkin, S. Rosenschein, P. Sistla, J. Tiuryn, M. Wand PAPER SUBMISSION: Send 14 copies of an extended abstract to the program chairman: Yuri Gurevich - LICS (313) 971-2652 Electrical Engineering and Yuri_Gurevich@um.cc.umich.edu Computer Science Department University of Michigan Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-2122 The package must be airmail postmarked by 27 NOVEMBER 1987 or received by 4 DECEMBER 1987. The abstract should be clearly written and provide sufficient detail to allow the program committee to assess the merits of the paper. References and comparisons with related work should be included where appropriate. The entire extended abstract should not exceed 10 double-spaced pages in 10 or 12-point font. Late abstracts or those departing significantly from these guidelines run a high risk of not being considered. If a copier is not available to the author, a single copy of the abstract will do. The authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by 27 JANUARY 1988. Accepted papers, typed on special forms for inclusion in the symposium proceedings, will be due 14 MARCH 1988. The symposium is sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society, Technical Committee on Mathematical Foundations of Computing , and the University of Edinburgh, in cooperation with ACM SIGACT, ASL, and EATCS.
