31 Jan-4 February 2011, Computability, Complexity and Randomness (CCR 2011), Cape Town, South Africa

Date: 31 Jan-4 February 2011
Location: Cape Town, South Africa
Deadline: 1 October 2010

The conference CCR, also known as conference on Logic, Computability and Randomness, will be in the tradition of the previous meetings in Córdoba (Argentina) 2004, Buenos Aires (Argentina) 2007, Nanjing (China) 2008, Luminy (France) 2009 and Notre Dame (USA) 2010. Topics include Algorithmic randomness, Computability theory, Kolmogorov complexity, Computational complexity and Reverse mathematics and logic

For more information, see http://cca-net.de/ccr2011/. CCR-2011 is co-located with CCA-2011.

The Programme Committee cordially invites all researchers to submit their papers for presentation. Submission deadline: October 1, 2010 (Abstracts only!).

31 Jan-4 February 2011, Computability and Complexity in Analysis (CCA 2011), Cape Town, South Africa

Date: 31 Jan-4 February 2011
Location: Cape Town, South Africa
Deadline: 1 October 2010

The conference is concerned with the theory of computability and complexity over real-valued data.

Computability and complexity theory are two central areas of research in mathematical logic and theoretical computer science. Computability theory is the study of the limitations and abilities of computers in principle. Computational complexity theory provides a framework for understanding the cost of solving computational problems, as measured by the requirement for resources such as time and space. The classical approach in these areas is to consider algorithms as operating on finite strings of symbols from a finite alphabet. Such strings may represent various discrete objects such as integers or algebraic expressions, but cannot represent general real or complex numbers, unless they are rounded.

Most mathematical models in physics and engineering, however, are based on the real number concept. Thus, a computability theory and a complexity theory over the real numbers and over more general continuous data structures is needed. Despite remarkable progress in recent years many important fundamental problems have not yet been studied, and presumably numerous unexpected and surprising results are waiting to be discovered.

For more information, see http://cca-net.de/cca2011/. CCA-2011 is co-located with CCR-2011.

The Programme Committee cordially invites all researchers to submit their papers for presentation. Submission deadline: October 1, 2010 (Abstracts only!).

30 September - 2 October 2010, Amsterdam Graduate Philosophy Conference on "Truth, Meaning, and Normativity" (AGPC'10), Allard Pierson Museum, Amsterdam

Date: 30 September - 2 October 2010
Location: Allard Pierson Museum, Amsterdam
Costs: 60 euro (students) or 90 euros (others)
Deadline: 18 July 2010

The Amsterdam Graduate Philosophy Conference 2010 is organised by the Department of Philosophy and the Institute for Logic, Language, and Computation of the Universiteit van Amsterdam. The 3rd Amsterdam Graduate Philosophy Conference is devoted to continue the discussions that were raised in the previous two conferences, as well as to lay the ground for new ones. The theme this year is Truth, Meaning, and Normativity.

We invite submissions from graduate researchers conducting novel philosophical research into any of the three conference topics. We also encourage submissions that inform the discussion about truth, meaning, and/or normativity by offering a philosophical interpretation of results from other fields such as logic, cognitive psychology and linguistics (including formal semantics and sociolinguistics).

Since the topics of truth, meaning, and normativity naturally feed into each other, we also welcome contributions whose particular aim is to explore any of the many intricate ways in which these notions relate to one another. Submissions on the role that these notions have played, or play, in the broad (analytic) tradition or, more specifically, within the linguistic turn are also of interest to the conference.

21-23 March 2011, AAAI Spring Symposium Series, Stanford University

Date: 21-23 March 2011
Title: 10th Symposium on Logical Formalizations of Commonsense Reasoning (Commonsense-2011)
Location: Stanford University
Deadline: 8 October 2010

The biennial Commonsense Symposia series provides a forum for exploring one of the long-term goals of Artificial Intelligence, endowing computers with common sense.

Although we know how to build programs that excel at certain bounded or mechanical tasks which humans find difficult, such as playing chess, we still have very little idea how to program computers to do well at commonsense tasks which are easy for humans. One approach to this problem is to characterize commonsense reasoning using representations based on logic or other formal theories. The challenges to creating such formalizations include accumulating knowledge about the everyday world, representing this knowledge formally, integrating different representations, and developing reasoning methods for these representations.

For more information, see http://www.commonsensereasoning.org/2011/index.html

We invite submissions for presentation at Commonsense-2011. Deadline for submissions: October 8, 2010.

Traditionally, computational linguistics was limited to the scientists specialized in the processing of a natural language by computers. Scientific approaches and practical techniques come from linguistics, computer science, psychology, and mathematics. Nowadays, there is a number of practical applications available. These applications are sometimes developed by smart yet NLP-untrained developers who solve the problems using sophisticated heuristics. CLA'10 Workshop is a place where the parties meet to exchange views and ideas with a benefit to all involved. The Workshop will focus on practical outcome of modeling human language use and the applications needed to improve human-machine interaction.

21-23 October 2010, The Making of the Humanities II: Second International Conference on the History of the Humanities

Date: 21-23 October 2010
Location: Doelenzaal, Singel 425, Amsterdam
Deadline: 15 June 2010

This is the second of a biennially organized conference that brings together scholars and historians of humanities disciplines to draw the outlines for a comparative history of the humanities. Although there exist histories of single humanities disciplines, a comparative history would satisfy a long-felt need, and fill a conspicuous gap in intellectual history.

The first highly successful conference, held in 2008, discussed the early modern period. The theme of this year's meeting is From Early Modern to Modern Disciplines, focusing on the period 1600-1900. Topics include all aspects of the history of philology, linguistics, rhetoric, musicology, literary theory, historiography, art history, archeology and other humanities disciplines, with an emphasis on their interrelations.

Registration deadline: 30 september. For more information, see the conference website at https://www.illc.uva.nl/MakingHumanities/2010/.

15-16 November 2010, Games, Logic and Security (GIPSy 2010), Rennes, France

Date: 15-16 November 2010
Location: Rennes, France
Deadline: 22 October 2010

Many tasks in computer science, such as design, synthesis, verification, etc. can be formulated in game-theoretic terms. Game playing is thus a powerful paradigm that fits many situations in which interaction between autonomous agents plays a central role. Abstracting security problems as games reveals the underlying theoretical and algorithmic questions, and helps to clarify the relationships between different domains. As an organizational principle, the concept of game offers a fresh and intuitive way of thinking through complex issues. There is now ample evidence that the diverse applications mentioned above can benefit from common analytical techniques and insights offered by algorithmic game theory, automata theory and logic.

The main goal of this workshop is to gather researchers interested in games, logic and security (in a broad sense), and to offer a privileged forum to present their work and exchange ideas on these topics.

The registration is free but mandatory. Deadline for registration: 4th November 2010.

All important details are available at http://www.irisa.fr/prive/Sophie.Pinchinat/GIPSy/gipsy10.html

Participants are welcome to give short talks (approximately 20 minutes). Selection will be made on the basis of an extended abstract of at most 2 pages. Submissions can contain work published elsewhere. Submission deadline: 22nd October 2010.

22-25 October 2010, 30 Years of Nonmonotonic Logic, Lexington KY, U.S.A.

Date: 22-25 October 2010
Location: Lexington KY, U.S.A.
Deadline: 11 June 2010

The publication of the seminal issue on Nonmonotonic Logics by the Artificial Intelligence Journal in 1980 resulted in the new area of research in Knowledge Representation. This development changed the paradigm of logic originated in antiquity, created an important area of mathematical logic, and resulted in exciting discoveries of logical techniques creating new bridges between logic, knowledge representation and computation. The research contributed to mathematical logic, computer science and philosophy, and changed the perspective on applications of logic.

This conference aims to sum up the experience of the first 30 years of nonmonotonic logics and map paths into the future. It will interleave longer invited talks covering all major research trends of the past 30 years with shorter technical presentations providing an account of the current research. Invited presentations will be published in an edited book by the College Publications. A special issue of the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research will provide a venue for technical presentations.

BNAIC is an international scientific conference for research in Artificial Intelligence. The BNAIC conferences series was initiated in 1988 by the Netherlands Association for Artificial Intelligence (later incorporating Belgium and Luxembourg to become the Benelux Association for AI) in order to promote research in AI among Benelux AI researchers, scientists and engineers in related disciplines. This year we are delighted to bring BNAIC for the first time to the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. According to the success of previous years, BNAIC 2010 will include invited speakers, research and industry presentations and project demonstrations.

CfP special issue of Studia Logica, "Residuated Lattices and Substructural Logics"

Deadline: 30 October 2010

Studia Logica is the second oldest journal in logic, publishing continuously for 60 years. One of the distinctive features of Studia Logica is its focus on thematically organized issues, hence the large number of special issues in the journal's history. One of the next special issues will be entitled "Recent Developments related to Residuated Lattices and Substructural Logics", and devoted to recent developments in the field, as the title suggests. We have been asked to serve as guest editors. We invite submissions of papers presenting new results in the area.

For more information, see http://www.studialogica.org/ or http://www.ifispan.waw.pl/studialogica/si-Residuated-Lattices.html.

Please send your submissions to by (extended deadline) October 30.

27 March 2011, International Workshop on Interactions, Games and Protocols (iWIGP 2011), Saarbrücken, Germany

Date: Sunday 27 March 2011
Location: Saarbrücken, Germany
Deadline: 31 October 2010

This workshop aims at the interrelation between interactions, games and protocols. How does computer science deal with nondeterministic interactions where the actions a system takes are not (completely) determined by the interactions the system is involved in?

For more information, see http://react.cs.uni-saarland.de/iWIGP2011/

The Programme Committee invites scientific contributions which explore new aspects of the interrelation between interactions, games and protocols, both from a theoretical and a practical perspective, and encourages submissions that connect theory and practice. Submission deadline is 31 October 2010.
