DESCRIPTION:The main goal of this conference is to
  present current trends situated at the interface 
 of Logic and the Foundations of Physics. The confe
 rence will bring together researchers from both fi
 elds, giving them a forum to present new developme
 nts, exchange ideas, explore and establish new con
 nections between logic and physics. On the one han
 d, we are interested in technical contributions on
  the use of new methods and techniques coming from
  logic, computation and information theory to axio
 matize and model physical theories and to reason a
 bout their concepts, phenomena and/or applications
 . On the other hand, we are interested in contribu
 tions coming from the foundations and philosophy o
 f physics dealing with the general conceptual fram
 ework and with questions of interpretation. In par
 ticular, we solicit contributions that merge new d
 evelopments in logic and physics, focusing for ins
 tance on how the use of techniques from logic can 
 be combined with insights in physics to yield a ne
 w perspective on the main foundational issues and 
 open problems in modern physics.   For more inform
 ation, see http://www.vub.ac.be/CLWF/TrendsVI  We 
 invite contributions on the subjects of this confe
 rence. Please send your submission in PDF format, 
 not exceeding 2 pages, by September 15, 2008.

      The main goal of this conference is to presen
 t current trends\n        situated at the interfac
 e of Logic and the Foundations of\n        Physics
 . The conference will bring together researchers f
 rom\n        both fields, giving them a forum to p
 resent new developments,\n        exchange ideas, 
 explore and establish new connections between\n   
      logic and physics. On the one hand, we are in
 terested in\n        technical contributions on th
 e use of new methods and\n        techniques comin
 g from logic, computation and information\n       
  theory to axiomatize and model physical theories 
 and to reason\n        about their concepts, pheno
 mena and/or applications. On the\n        other ha
 nd, we are interested in contributions coming from
  the\n        foundations and philosophy of physic
 s dealing with the general\n        conceptual fra
 mework and with questions of interpretation. In\n 
        particular, we solicit contributions that m
 erge new\n        developments in logic and physic
 s, focusing for instance on\n        how the use o
 f techniques from logic can be combined with\n    
     insights in physics to yield a new perspective
