3 August 2007, Colloquium on Mathematical Logic, Joel Hamkins
(Tram 9 from Central Station, to Plantage Badlaan).
For abstracts and more information, see http://www.math.uu.nl/people/jvoosten/seminar.html
5-9 August 2007, Workshop Logic, Rationality and Interaction
In the past decade it has become increasingly clear that studying information, first and foremost, means studying information exchange. This acknowledgement of the inherently social character of information shows up at many places in modern logical theories. More generally, information exchange is a form of interaction where agents act together in strategic ways. This new perspective has led to contacts between logic and game theory, bringing a new set of disciplines into the scope of logic: viz., economics, and the social sciences.
New interfaces are arising, such as epistemic studies of rational behavior in games. Another interesting development in this area is the rise of the notion of 'social software', the idea of using computational techniques for analyzing patterns of social behavior. And finally, interaction is also crucial to intelligent behavior in the field of natural language. Here pragmatics, the study of the actual use of language between different agents, has become the primary focus of research. Notions from game theory, in particular evolutionary games, are being used to-day to answer all kinds of pragmatic issues, for instance, how linguistic conventions can arise.
This workshop aims to bring together researchers working on these and related topics in logic, philosophy, computer science, and related areas in order to arrive at an integrated perspective on knowledge acquisition, information exchange, and rational action.

6-17 August 2007, ESSLLI-2007:
19th European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information, Dublin, Ireland
The main focus of ESSLLI is on the interface between linguistics, logic and computation. ESSLLI offers foundational, introductory and advanced courses, as well as workshops, covering a wide variety of topics within the three areas of interest: Language and Computation, Language and Logic, and Logic and Computation.
The school has developed into an important meeting place and forum for discussion for students, researchers and IT professionals interested in the interdisciplinary study of Logic, Language and Information. ESSLLI-2007 is organised under the auspices of the European Association for Logic, Language and Information (FoLLI).
The ESSLLI-2007 Program Committee invites proposals for foundational, introductory, and advanced courses, and for workshops for the 19th annual Summer School on a wide range of timely topics that have demonstrated their relevance in the fields of language & computation, language & logic, or logic & computation. Submissions should be submitted before June 15th, 2006 at http://www.folli.org/submission.php
For more information, see the ESSLLI website at https://www.cs.tcd.ie/esslli2007/.

31 August 2007, Annual Boat Trip
We are happy to announce that the ILLC will (as usual) welcome its new Master students by having a boat trip in which you can see the city from another point of view, followed by an informal reception where there will be something to eat and to drink. This gathering will be a nice opportunity to meet with ILLC staff members and students.
The boat leaves at 16.30 hrs from the back of the Euclides building (Plantage Muidergracht 24), we request to gather at the front desk at 16.15 from where we will walk to the landing place of the boat. The boat will return at 18.00. Reception is from 18.00 - 19.30 at the ILLC, third floor of Euclides, Pl. Muidergracht 24
For more information, please contact tkassena at science.uva.nl
