The aim of the FMICS conference series is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners who are interested in the development and application of formal methods in industry. FMICS brings together scientists and engineers who are active in the area of formal methods and interested in exchanging their experiences in the industrial usage of these methods. The FMICS conference series also strives to promote research and development for the improvement of formal methods and tools for industrial applications.

FMICS 2024 is co-located with FM 2024 and will be held at Politecnico di Milano in Milan, Italy.

The International Conference on Logic for Programming, Artificial Intelligence and Reasoning (LPAR) is an academic conference aimed at discussing cutting-edge results in the fields of automated reasoning, computational logic, programming languages and their applications.

Logical frameworks and meta-languages form a common substrate for representing, implementing and reasoning about a wide variety of deductive systems of interest in logic and computer science. Their design, implementation and their use in reasoning tasks, ranging from the correctness of software to the properties of formal systems, have been the focus of considerable research over the last two decades. This workshop will bring together designers, implementors and practitioners to discuss various aspects impinging on the structure and utility of logical frameworks, including the treatment of variable binding, inductive and co-inductive reasoning techniques and the expressiveness and lucidity of the reasoning process.

Can truth be defined? Frege argued that it couldn't. Ramsey argued that defining it would be easy if only we had an analysis of judgement. Today Horwich claims that truth cannot be defined explicitly because doing so would require quantification into sentence position and such quantification is not coherent. Instead he proposes a “minimal theory” of truth, which comprises all the unproblematic instances of the equivalence schema. Künne, by contrast, argues that quantification into sentence position is coherent and may actually be part of some natural languages. Künne uses such quantification to define truth explicitly: ∀x (x is true iff ∃p ((x is the proposition that p) & p)). Or in English: a representation (belief, assertion etc) is true just if things are as it represents them as being.

Is truth definable? Is propositional quantification coherent? Do natural languages involve propositional quantification, and in what sense? What do the answers to these questions mean for philosophical attempts to define or explain truth? Is truth redundant if explicitly definable? Not redundant if not explicitly definable? We are interested in these and related questions (broadly conceived).

Confirmed speakers are: Peter Fritz (Australian Catholic University), Paul Horwich (New York University), Wolfgang Künne (University of Hamburg), Poppy Mankowitz (University of Bristol)  and Cheryl Misak (University of Toronto).

The MoH conferences are organized by the Society for the History of the Humanities and bring together scholars and historians interested in the history of a wide variety of fields, including archaeology, art history, historiography, linguistics, literary studies, media studies, musicology, and philology, tracing these fields from their earliest developments to the modern day.

This year’s special conference theme is "Shifting Cultures of Knowledge in the History of the Humanities". In 2024, we encourage papers that address the history of the humanities in relation to broader, multidisciplinary studies on knowledge and scholarship.

The International Joint Conference on Rules and Reasoning (RuleML+RR) is the leading international joint conference in the field of rule-based reasoning. Stemming from the synergy between the well-known RuleML and RR events, one of the main goals of this conference is to build bridges between academia and industry.

The RuleML+RR 2024 conference is part of the event “Declarative AI: Rules,
Reasoning, Decisions, and Explanations” (https://2024.declarativeai.net) and
is co-located with DecisionCAMP 2024 and the Reasoning Web Summer School. Apart from the main track, it features the Rule Challenge, a Doctoral Consortium, an Industry Track and a Project Networking Session as associated events.

The Department of Logic of the Jagiellonian University and Studia Logica organise a common event: Cracow Logic Conference 69 and Trends in Logic 24 -- 90 Years of Studia Logica with a historical lecture on Jan Łukasiewicz 1934 Studia Logica volume.

Cracow Logic Conference (CLoCk) is the oldest Polish conference series on logic. For many years it existed under a deceptive name Konferencja Historii Logiki (Conference on the History of Logic), and was for the most part limited to the Polish logic community.  Since 2023 CLoCk went truly international and welcomes contributions on all areas of logic, as long as they are mathematical in the sense once conveyed by the name symbolic logic.

Trends in Logic is the conference series of the journal Studia Logica aimed at worldwide promotion of logic and Studia Logica. The series began in 2003, and have been held annually at different logic centres. The series has been instrumental in increasing the visibility of Studia Logica and elevating its international standing.

Formal ontology is the systematic study of the types of entities and relations making up the domains of interest represented in modern information systems. FOIS is the flagship conference of the International Association for Ontology and its Applications (IAOA), a non-profit organization promoting interdisciplinary research and international collaboration in formal ontology. FOIS aims to be a nexus of interdisciplinary research and communication for researchers from many domains engaging with formal ontology.

FOIS 2024 will be held both online (8-9 July 2024) and in Enschede, the Netherlands (15-19 July 2024), by the Semantics, Cybersecurity & Services group of the University of Twente. The conference includes the following: Contributed Lectures - Workshops - Joint Ontology Workshops (JOWO) - Tutorials - Ontology showcase - Demonstrations - Project exhibitions.

Computational models of argumentation are approaches that deal with the representation and interaction of arguments and counterarguments. These models can be applied in all areas that benefit from automatic decision-support such as medicine, accounting, chemistry, and law. Many of these models were inspired by works within the fields of non-monotonic reasoning and logic programming and therefore share the sometimes considerable computational complexity of these approaches.

Algorithmic aspects of computational models of argumentation are an important area, as witnessed by the popularity of the International Competition on Computational Models of Argumentation (ICCMA). This workshop aims at complementing the competition by providing a forum to present and discuss both systems and algorithms dealing with all aspects of computational argumentation, in particular those approaches addressing the tracks of the competition.

On Friday, 19 April 2024, the Radboud University of Nijmegen will host the Juniorendag, organized by Anela and VIOT. BA and MA students, recently graduated students, and PhD candidates can present their thesis or their doctoral research at the Juniorendag in the field of applied linguistics (language use, language acquisition, language teaching, language proficiency or communication) in an informal atmosphere. In addition, the Anela-VIOT Thesis Award will be awarded during this day to the best MA thesis in the field of applied linguistics.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together experts from different research communities (such as proof theory, model theory, proof complexity, verification, database theory, knowledge representation, automated reasoning, automata theory, philosophy, linguistics) in order to discuss and disseminate recent and ongoing research pertaining to Craig interpolation and Beth definability.

Invited speakers: Michael Benedikt (University of Oxford, tbc), Raheleh Jalali (Czech Academy of Sciences), Jean Christoph Jung (TU Dortmund University), George Metcalfe (University of Bern), Thomas Place (LaBRI Bordeaux) and Philipp Ruemmer (University of Regensburg).

This event, organised by members of the Semantics, Pragmatics, and Philosophy (SPP) research group of the University of Cambridge, aims to bring together those interested in abstract concepts across disciplinary boundaries. This workshop aims to encourage and explore innovative ways, both theoretical and experimental, of analysing and understanding the meaning of abstract concepts. This could include work on topics such as time, conceptual engineering, investigations into concepts such as freedom or justice, processing of abstract concepts, or diachronic investigations of scientific or social abstract concepts, to name just a few. 

The workshop aims to be an environment in which PhD and graduate students may present their work and get feedback from their peers, as well as those who may not traditionally fall within their discipline's boundaries.  The event will also include talks from three academics: Dr. Sean Enda Power (University of Cork), Dr. Derek Ball (St Andrews University), and Prof. Kasia Jaszczolt (University of Cambridge). 

The workshop aims to bring together researchers who work on formal philosophy broadly construed who are either members of traditionally underrepresented groups or who work outside of what is perceived as ``traditional’’ topics in logic and formal philosophy. It will be an occasion for dialogue between researchers who identify as members of underrepresented groups in academia and researchers who work on topics generally regarded as non-standard in the academic tradition.

Confirmed speakers include: Gillian Russell (ANU), Sara Uckelman (Durham) and Frederique Jannsen-Lauret (Manchester). The workshop will be followed by a panel discussion on how to make formal academic philosophy a more inclusive environment.

Twenty years after the publication of Ehrhard and Regnier’s first seminal paper on the subject, we are delighted to announce a conference on Differential λ-calculus and Differential Linear Logic, nicknamed DiλLL 2024. The programme will consist in a series of invited talks, a good proportion of which will be tutorials, targeted at young researchers as well as non-specialists. It will also include surveys of the main advances obtained in the course of twenty years, as well as research talks on current topics. For young researchers, it will also be possible to display posters in the premises of the conference during the whole week, in order to foster discussion around your work.

The general subject of the conference are problems of philosophical ontology, epistemology, philosophy of science, and philosophy of mind that are formulated or solved using formal methods (as defined in logic, mathematics, formal linguistics, theoretical computer science, information science, AI) and/or with references to the results of natural and social sciences.

The following special topics will be addressed:
– use of formal methods in philosophy,
– philosophical analysis of scientific notions (natural law, matter, change, cause, chance, time, space, uncertainty, quantum phenomena, probability, social interaction, etc.),
– philosophical analysis of scientific methods (formalisms, rationality, values, norms, etc.),
– the role and use of scientific notions and methods in philosophy (formal systems in philosophy, critical analysis, systematic philosophy, etc.).

There will be a PhD student session with 20 minutes talks followed by 10 minutes discussion.

The international symposium "Engaging Rationality Today" will bring together specialists from multiple disciplines (philosophy, logic, psychology, anthropology, linguistics, etc.) to reflect collectively on contemporary meanings and uses of rationality. The current Western cultural context, which is marked by numerous challenges (war, fake news, A.I., populism) and critiques (post-colonialism, feminism, etc.), requires a reevalutation of the classic notion of rationality. They show the limits of the classical notion, grounded on concepts like objectivity, universality, argumentation, and causal relationships. But accepting every new conception without criteria seems to give way to relativism, thus leading to a dilemma. The symposium "Engaging Rationality Today" aims at tackling this dilemma by creating a space of dialogue between various conceptions of rationality. To do so, it is not only a question of examing what rationality is, but also, and above all, a question of studying the limits, blindspots, and problematic uses of the proposed definitions of rationality. The aim of the present project is to provide a comprehensive view of how rationality is currently understood, from various perspectives (philosophy, psychology, linguistics, etc.). We hope that by examining rationality’s multifaceted aspects, including what falls outside of the proposed definitions, contributors will be encouraged to reevalute their own defninitions through dialogue with others.

Logic and Philosophy is a biennial conference organised and hosted by Vilnius University. The conference is intended as a venue for philosophical discussions on logic broadly construed. We invite submissions that address philosophy of logic, philosophical issues related to classical or non-classical logics, the history of logic, and philosophical applications of logic.

Invited speakers: Timothy Williamson (Oxford / Yale), Graham Priest (CUNY), Sara L. Uckelman (Durham), Iryna Khomenko (Kyiv). A special session, with contributions by Timothy Williamson and Graham Priest, dedicated to the nature of logic and validity is planned as part of the programme. Related talks are particularly welcome.

The theme of the workshop is "Agency and intentionality: collective and individual". Collective intentionality and collective agency, and closely related topics such as common knowledge, team reasoning, public announcement and other forms of group communication, are among the key issues that are being studied right now in a variety of frameworks.

Some of these frameworks are parsimonious extensions of frameworks for individual agency and individual intentionality, whereas others employ a more extended conceptual and ontological apparatus. And some of the analyses are primarily analytical and conceptual, while others are logical and formal. The main goal of the workshop is to bring these together to exchange results and discuss different views.

Invited speakers: Branden Fitelson (Northeastern University), Marc Slors (Radboud University Nijmegen), Sonja Smets (University of Amsterdam) and Deborah Tollefsen (The University of Memphis).

The Department of Philosophy at Carnegie Mellon University hosts a summer school in logic and formal epistemology for promising undergraduates in philosophy, mathematics, computer science, linguistics, economics, and other sciences.

Preference is given to papers that bring together the work and problems of several fields, such as game and decision theory, logic, computer science and artificial intelligence, philosophy, cognitive psychology, mathematics, and mind sciences.

Invited Speakers: Julia Staffel (University of Colorado Boulder), Thomas Bolander (Technical University of Denmark) and Willemien Kets (Utrecht University).

Computational and technological developments that incorporate natural language and reasoning methods are proliferating. Adequate coverage encounters difficult problems related to the phenomena of partiality, underspecification, perspectives of agents, and context dependency. These phenomena are signature features of information in nature, natural languages, and reasoning.

The session covers theoretical work, applications, approaches, and techniques for computational models of information, language (artificial, human, or natural in other ways), reasoning. The goal is to promote computational systems and related models of language, thought, reasoning, and other related processes.

Offering high school students worldwide a chance to showcase excellence in logic and problem-solving, this contest is designed by the Stanford Logic Group, with aims to internationalize logic education and culminates in an on-campus final round at Stanford University.

Non-classical logics - such as modal logics, conditional logics, intuitionistic logic, description logics, temporal logics, linear logic, dynamic logic, deontic logics, fuzzy logic, paraconsistent logic, relevance logic - have many applications in AI, Computer Science, Philosophy, Linguistics, and Mathematics. Hence, the automation of proof search in these logics is a crucial task. The ARQNL workshop aims at fostering the development of proof calculi, automated theorem proving systems and model finders for all sorts of quantified non-classical logics. The workshop will provide a forum for researchers to present and discuss recent developments in this area.

ARQNL 2024 is associated with IJCAR 2024, the International Joint Conference on Automated Reasoning.

Courses:
* Team semantics: Linguistic and Philosophical Applications by Maria Aloni (UvA)
* The Modal μ-calculus by Yde Venema (UvA)

The Panhellenic Logic Symposium (PLS), a biennial scientific event established in 1997, aims to promote interaction and cross-fertilization among different areas of logic. Originally conceived as a way of bringing together the many logicians of Hellenic descent throughout the world, it has evolved into an international forum for the communication of state-of-the-art advances in logic. The symposium is open to researchers worldwide who work in logic broadly conceived.

IJCAR is the premier international joint conference on all topics in automated reasoning. It is the merger conference of leading events in automated reasoning: CADE (Conference on Automated Deduction), FroCoS (Symposium on Frontiers of Combining Systems) and TABLEAUX (Conference on Analytic Tableaux and Related Methods Topics).

A two-day workshop and tutorial programme will be co-organized with the conference. In addition, the annual CADE ATP System Competition (CASC) will be held during the conference. 

We are pleased to announce that Leeds Computability Days 2024: Computability, Reverse Mathematics, and Topology (LCD 2024) will take place 02-05 July 2024 at the University of Leeds.

Student members of the ASL may apply for modest travel awards to attend (deadline 31 March 2024).

Learning models defining recursive computations, like automata and formal grammars, are the core of the field called Grammatical Inference (GI). The expressive power of these models and the complexity of the associated computational problems are major research topics within mathematical logic and computer science. Historically, there has been little interaction between the GI and ICALP communities, though recently some important results started to bridge the gap between both worlds, including applications of learning to formal verification and model checking, and (co-)algebraic formulations of automata and grammar learning algorithms.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together experts on logic who could benefit from grammatical inference tools, and researchers in grammatical inference who could find in logic and verification new fruitful applications for their methods. The LearnAut workshop will consists of a number of invited talks, other talks from researchers who submitted their work to the workshop, and discussions. An important amount of time will be kept for interactions between participants.

ICALP is the main conference and annual meeting of the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS). As usual, ICALP will be preceded by a series of workshops, which will take place on July 7.

ICALP 2024 is co-located with Logic in Computer Science (LICS) 2024 and Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD) 2024. The conference is planned as a physical, in-person event.  During the conference, the following awards will be delivered: the EATCS award,  the Gödel prize,  the Presburger award, the EATCS distinguished dissertation award, the best papers for each of the conference tracks, and the best student papers for each of the conference tracks.

CiE (Computability in Europe) is a European association of mathematicians, logicians, computer scientists, philosophers, physicists and others interested in new developments in computability and their underlying significance for the real world.

The CiE conferences serve as an interdisciplinary forum for research in all aspects of computability, foundations of computer science, logic, and theoretical computer science, as well as the interplay of these areas with practical issues in computer science and with other disciplines such as biology, mathematics, philosophy, or physics. CiE 2024 will be an anniversary event. It is the 20th conference organized by Ci , in the same place as the first edition, Amsterdam.

“Formal Ethics” is a common denominator for the application of tools from logic, decision theory, game theory, and social choice theory to the analysis of concepts and theories in moral and political philosophy. It is a rapidly growing field of research that goes back to the work of Kenneth Arrow, Amartya Sen, John Harsanyi, Georg Henrik von Wright, and others. The field has recently gained new impetus with formal work on freedom and responsibility, welfare economics and population ethics, deontic logic and natural language semantics, value theory, and the evolution of norms and conventions.

Invited speakers: Justin Bruner (University at Buffalo), Fabrizio Cariani (University of Maryland) and Anne Schwenkenbecher (Murdoch University).

ESSAI 2024 is the second edition of the annual summer school on AI held under the auspices of the European Association for Artificial Intelligence (EurAI). ESSAI 2024 will provide an interdisciplinary setting in which courses are offered in all areas of Artificial Intelligence and also from wider scientific, historical, and philosophical perspectives. ESSAI is a central meeting place for students and young researchers in Artificial Intelligence to discuss current research and share knowledge. Courses will consist of five 90-minute sessions, offered daily (Monday-Friday) in a single week, to allow students to develop in-depth knowledge of a topic.

The course "Logic as a tool for modelling" is part of the VU Amsterdam's summer school. The aim of the course is to introduce participants to the study of various types of logic as a versatile tool for elegantly modelling diverse phenomena. The overarching theme in the handling of applications is the notion of categories and categorisation. The course starts by discussing classical logic, through both semantics and syntax, as well as applications in the social sciences, addressing agency, and information flow. Then it focuses on various theories of categorization from Aristotle's classical perspective to modern prototype and exemplar theory and introduces logical formalisms that encompass these various views. The last part delves into formal linguistics, where words are categorized based on their role in sentence formation.

Following a series of eight successful MCMP-organized summer schools on mathematical philosophy for female students, the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP) will this year broaden its offering, with a summer school for women and members of other groups that are under-represented in formal philosophy. These groups include under-represented gender identities, races and ethnicities, people with disabilities, people from low income and non-academic family backgrounds.

The school's aim is to encourage students to engage with mathematical and scientific approaches to philosophical problems, and thereby help to redress the under-representation of women and other marginalized groups in formal philosophy. It offers the opportunity for study in an informal and interdisciplinary setting, for lively debate, and for the development of a network of students and professors interested in the application of formal methods to philosophy. This edition of the summer school will feature lectures by: Jingyi Wu (LSE): “Models of Diversity and Injustice” Sara Uckelman (Durham University): “What History of Logic Can Teach Us About the Future of Logic”. In addition, there will be an evening lecture by Barbara Vetter (FU Berlin): “First-generation philosophers: why they matter, and how to support them”.

The Student Session of the 35th European Summer School in Logic, Language, and Information (ESSLLI) will take place at ESSLLI 2024, on 29 July - 9 August 2024 in Leuven, Belgium. This is an excellent opportunity for students to receive valuable feedback from expert readers and to present their work to a diverse audience.

Advances in Modal Logic is an initiative aimed at presenting the state of the art in modal logic and its various applications.

PLM is a European network of centers devoted to the Philosophy of Language and Mind. PLM was founded in 2010 and organizes international conferences, workshop and master classes taught by leading experts in the field.

Computational Linguistics in Bulgaria (CLIB) is an international conference that aims at exploring novel approaches and methods in computational linguistics and natural language processing (NLP), especially with a view to their application to small and less-resourced languages such as Bulgarian and the bridging of the discrepancies between big and small languages with respect to language technologies.

The second European Summer School on the Philosophy of Mathematics aims to bring together Master and PhD students interested in the connection between philosophy and mathematics, giving them the opportunity to discuss related topics with leading scholars in the field. Topics will be selected reflecting participants’ interests and may include:
* Mathematical knowledge and mathematical understanding
* Justification and representation in mathematics
* Informal proofs and mathematical rigor
* The role of intuition and diagrams in mathematical reasoning
* Experimental mathematics and mathematical practice
* Mathematical ontology

The School will include tutorials by Jessica Carter (Aarhus University), Yacin Hamami (ETH Zurich) and Leon Horsten (University of Konstanz), as well as a training unit on "Quantitative and qualitative empirical methods for philosophers of mathematics" by Matthew Inglis and Deborah Kant.

The ITP conference series is concerned with all aspects of interactive theorem proving, ranging from theoretical foundations to implementation aspects and applications in program verification, security, and the formalization of mathematics. This will be the 15th conference in the ITP series, while predecessor conferences from which it has evolved have been going since 1988.

This year's international autumn school "Proof and Computation" will be held from 15th to 21st September 2024 in Fischbachau near Munich. Its aim is to bring together young researchers in the field of Foundations of Mathematics, Computer Science and Philosophy.

Scope: Predicative Foundations, Constructive Mathematics and Type Theory, Computation in Higher Types, and Extraction of Programs from Proofs. There will be an opportunity to form ad-hoc groups working on specific projects, but also to discuss in more general terms the vision of constructing correct programs from proofs.

The International Conference on Computational Models of Argument (COMMA) is a regular forum for presentation and exchange of the latest research results concerning theory and applications of computational argumentation. This year the biennial COMMA event will be hosted at the FernUniversität in Hagen, Germany. COMMA 2024 will be preceded by the sixth edition of the Summer School on Argumentation (SSA 2024). In addition to the main conference track, COMMA 2024 will include system demonstrations, as well as workshops devoted to specific argumentation-related themes.

We are happy to announce that the following workshops will take place prior to the COMMA 2024 conference:
 - 24th International Workshop on Computational Models of Natural Argument (CMNA 2024)
 - 2nd International Workshop on Argumentation for eXplainable AI (ArgXAI 2024)
 - 5th International Workshop on Systems and Algorithms for Formal (SAFA 2024)
