29 May - 1 June 2008, 2008 International Workshop on Truth Values, Dresden, Germany

The purpose of the 2008 International Workshop on Truth Values is to present and discuss work on various interrelated aspects of truth-values: philosophical, logical and algebraic among them. The topics of the workshop include:

- the philosophical elucidation and theoretical explication of the notion of a truth value;
- general formal tools for a uniform treatment of various logical, mathematical and philosophical aspects of truth values and valuational systems within a joint theoretical framework;
- the interpretation of logical calculi as valuational systems, the development of general methods of formalizing (in axiomatic, sequent, tableau etc. style) logical theories on the basis of a given system of truth values and the examination of their syntactic and semantic properties;
- the investigation of topical problems of many-valued logics, such as Suszko's Thesis, truth value gaps, logical and semantical paradoxes etc.;
- possible applications of generalized truth values and generalized truth value functions in various areas of philosophical and mathematical interest.
