[Please distribute. Apologies for multiple postings] CALL FOR PAPERS WoLLIC 2023 29th Workshop on Logic, Language, Information and Computation 11-14 July, 2023 Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada Website: https://www.mathstat.dal.ca/wollic2023/ ORGANISATION Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Dalhousie University, Canada Centro de Informática, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, Brazil CALL FOR PAPERS WoLLIC is an annual international forum on inter-disciplinary research involving formal logic, computing and programming theory, and natural language and reasoning. Each meeting includes invited talks and tutorials as well as contributed papers. The twenty-ninth WoLLIC will be held at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Dalhousie University, Canada, 11-14 July, 2023. It is scientifically sponsored by the Association for Symbolic Logic (ASL), the Interest Group in Pure and Applied Logics (IGPL), the Association for Logic, Language and Information (FoLLI), the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS) (tbc), European Association for Computer Science Logic (EACSL), and the Sociedade Brasileira de Lógica (SBL). LOCATION AND FORMAT Halifax (https://www.halifax.ca/) is the capital and largest municipality of the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, and the largest municipality in Atlantic Canada. (Wikipedia) WoLLIC 2023 will be a hybrid event. All invited talks are planned to be on-site in order to stimulate discussions and interaction with participants. SCOPE Contributions are invited on all pertinent subjects, with particular interest in cross-disciplinary topics. Typical but not exclusive areas of interest are: foundations of computing, programming and Artificial Intelligence (AI); novel computation models and paradigms; broad notions of proof and belief; proof mining, type theory, effective learnability and explainable AI; formal methods in software and hardware development; logical approach to natural language and reasoning; logics of programs, actions and resources; foundational aspects of information organization, search, flow, sharing, and protection; foundations of mathematics; philosophical logic; philosophy of language. PAPER SUBMISSION Proposed contributions should be in English, and consist of a scholarly exposition accessible to the non-specialist, including motivation, background, and comparison with related works. Articles should be written in the LaTeX format of LNCS by Springer (see author's instructions at http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0). They must not exceed 12 pages, with up to 5 additional pages for references and technical appendices. The paper's main results must not be published or submitted for publication in refereed venues, including journals and other scientific meetings. It is expected that each accepted paper be presented at the meeting by one of its authors either in person or via remote connection. (At least one author is required to pay a full on-site registration fee before granting that the paper will be published in the proceedings.) Papers must be submitted electronically at the WoLLIC 2023 EasyChair website https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wollic2023. PROCEEDINGS The proceedings of WoLLIC 2023, including both invited and contributed papers, will be published as a volume in Springer's LNCS series. Due to the earlier timeline this year, the proceedings will appear after the workshop. In addition, abstracts will be published in the Conference Report section of the Logic Journal of the IGPL, and selected contributions will be published (after a new round of reviewing) as a special post-conference WoLLIC 2023 issue of a scientific journal (to be confirmed).
