  • 23 - 28 August 2027, 2027 Congress of Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science and Technology, Kobe [JP]

    Date: 23 - 28 August 2027
    Location: Kobe [JP]
    Deadline: Sunday 15 November 2026

    CLMPST is the premier forum on Logic, Methodology and Philosophy of Science and Technology. Its aim is to bring together active researchers in this broad field. CLMPST has a long history — it started in 1960, and has been held every four years since then in capital cities and/or by leading university centres in this field. Recent previous CLMPST Congresses were held in Buenos Aires (2023), Prague (2019), Helsinki (2015), Nancy (2011), and Beijing (2007).

    Welcomed are papers and symposia from across all areas of logic, philosophy of science, and philosophy of technology. The aim is to feature presentations from across the wide array of topics pertaining to our fields, from mathematical logic to metaphilosophy, from the foundations of the exact sciences to philosophy of the humanities and social sciences, from philosophy of technology to historical perspectives on the sciences, presented by researchers from around the world. CLMPST is particularly enthusiastic about proposals that reach across disciplines, that incorporate speakers from different countries or regions, that explore public engagement and/or social implications of academic work, or that reflect on relationships and contributions of different knowledge systems.

  • 7 - 11 June 2027, CiE 2027 – Computability in Europe, West University of Timișoara [RO]

    Date: 7 - 11 June 2027
    Location: West University of Timișoara [RO]
    Deadline: Sunday 10 January 2027

    CiE is the annual conference of the Association Computability in Europe, a European association of mathematicians, logicians, computer scientists, philosophers, physicists, and other researchers 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.

    The 2027 edition will be co-located with the AUTOMATA conference.

    The Program Committee cordially invites all researchers, European and non-European, to submit their papers in all areas related to the above for presentation at the conference and inclusion in the proceedings of CiE 2027. Papers submitted to the conference proceedings should represent original work, not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference with formal proceedings. Accepted papers will be published as a proceedings volume in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series from Springer-Verlag.

    Additionally, the PC invites researchers to present informal presentations of their recent work. Informal presentations will not be published in the LNCS conference proceedings. Results presented as informal presentations at CiE 2027 may appear or may have appeared in other conferences with formal proceedings and/or in journals.

    28 June - 2 July 2027, LATD2027 (Logic Algebra and Truth Degrees 2027), Eszterházy Károly Catholic University, Eger [HU]

    Date: 28 June - 2 July 2027
    Location: Eszterházy Károly Catholic University, Eger [HU]
    Costs: €300 - 400
    Deadline: Sunday 31 January 2027

    The assumption that “truth comes in degrees” has proved to be very useful in many theoretical and applied areas of Mathematics, Computer Science, and Philosophy.

    The Logic Algebra and Truth Degrees (LATD) conference series started as an official meeting of the working group on Mathematical Fuzzy Logic (the subdiscipline of mathematical logic dealing with graded truth) and evolved into a wider meeting in algebraic logic and related areas. Its main goal is to foster collaboration between researchers in these areas, and to promote communication and cooperation with members of neighbouring fields.

    Invited are contributions on any relevant aspects of logical systems (including many-valued, fuzzy, substructural, modal, and quantum logics), in particular: Proof theory and computational complexity; Algebraic semantics and abstract algebraic logic; First-order, higher-order, and modal formalisms; Applications and foundational issues; Geometric and game theoretic aspects.

  • 27 - 30 July 2027, Theoretical Aspects of Rationality & Knowledge (TARK 2027): First Call for Papers, Prague [CZ]

    Date & Time: 27 - 30 July 2027, 09:00
    Location: Prague [CZ]
    Deadline: Friday 12 March 2027

    The mission of the TARK conferences is to bring together researchers from a wide variety of fields, including Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Game Theory, Decision Theory, Philosophy, Logic, Linguistics, and Cognitive Science, in order to further our understanding of interdisciplinary issues involving reasoning about rationality and knowledge. Previous conferences have been held bi-annually around the world. 

    These include, but are not limited to, semantic models for knowledge, belief, awareness and uncertainty; bounded rationality and resource-bounded reasoning; commonsense epistemic reasoning; epistemic logic; epistemic game theory; knowledge and action, applications of reasoning about knowledge and other mental states; belief revision; computational social choice; algorithmic game theory; and foundations of multi-agent systems.

    Strong preference will be given to papers whose topic is of interest to an interdisciplinary audience, and papers should be accessible to such an audience. Papers will be held to the usual high standards of research publications.

    ICLA 2027 is the 12th edition of the biennial conference organised by the Association for Logic in India (ALI). It serves as a forum that brings together researchers from a variety of disciplines in which formal logic plays a significant, and often foundational, role, including Mathematics, Computer Science, Philosophy, Linguistics, and Cognitive Science. A distinctive feature of ICLA is its inclusion of research on systems of logic in the Indian tradition, as well as historical studies of logic.

  • 23 - 24 January 2027, Cambridge Graduate Conference on the Philosophy of Mathematics and Logic, St John's College, Cambridge [UK]

    Date: 23 - 24 January 2027
    Location: St John's College, Cambridge [UK]
    Target audience: graduate students

    Logic and the philosophy of mathematics are central and foundational sub-disciplines in philosophy. However, graduate students working in these areas often struggle to find access to forums in which they can discuss their work with peers. The aim of this conference is to provide graduate students working in these and related areas with such a forum.

    Additionally, the conference has been co-founded by the ILLC's own Luca Incurvati!
