HIGHLIGHTS 2020: 8th annual conference on Highlights of LOGIC, GAMES, and AUTOMATA
15-18 September 2020, Online http://highlights-conference.org
The registration is open (and free)! http://highlights-conference.org/register/
================================================ ONLINE PLATFORM The conference will be hosted on http://gather.town/ Each participant controls an avatar moving around a "town" designed for the conference (with lecture halls and such). Each Contributed presentation will be five minutes long (plus two minutes for questions). There are a couple of innovations to make this online experience as interactive as possible. More details will be given to registered participants.
================================================ HIGHLIGHTS 2020 is the 8th conference on Highlights of Logic, Games, and Automata that aims to integrate the diverse research community working in the areas of Logic and Finite Model Theory, Automata Theory, and Games for Logic and Verification. Individual papers are dispersed across many conferences, which makes them challenging to follow. Participating in the annual Highlights conference offers a wide picture of the latest research in the field and a chance to meet and interact with most of the members of the research community. The speakers are encouraged to present their best recent work at Highlights, whether already published elsewhere or not.
The conference is short (from 15 to 18 September). The participation costs are modest (zero) and the location is easy to reach (your office).
