2-5 September 2014, Highlights of Logic, Games and Automata (Highlights 2014), Paris, France

Date: 2-5 September 2014
Location: Paris, France
Deadline: 30 June 2014

There is a distinct community in theoretical computer science, which studies logic, games and automata. Results produced by this community are dispersed across many conferences, which makes them difficult to follow, and the community rarely gathers. Also, since conferences are mainly used for publication, there are few incentives to make good talks. A new conference: Highlights of Logic, Games and Automata, aims to provide a solution to this problem.

A visit to this conference gives you a wide picture of the latest research in the area. Also, a chance to meet everybody in the field, not just those who happen to publish in one particular proceedings volume. We intend to achieve this popularity by having no proceedings, a short and cheap event, and building on the tradition of the similar proceedings-free GAMES workshop.

The conference has no published proceedings. Participants are invited to present their best work, be it published elsewhere or yet unpublished. The conference is three days long. The contributed talks are around ten minutes. Submission deadline TBA.
