Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1993 11:29:33 -0700 From: Tom Melham +===============================================================+ | CALL FOR PAPERS | | | | The 7th International Workshop on Higher Order Logic | | Theorem Proving and its Applications | | | | MALTA | | | | 19-22 September 1994 | +===============================================================+ This meeting is the seventh in a series of annual workshops on higher order logic theorem proving and its applications. Previous workshops were held in Cambridge, Aarhus, Davis, Leuven, and Vancouver. The 1994 meeting will be held at the Foundation for International Studies, University of Malta, between 19 and 22 September. TOPICS ====== The programme committee invites papers on all topics related to higher order logic theorem proving and its applications, with a primary focus on the HOL system and/or other theorem provers for higher order logic. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: * Extensions to, and enhancements of, the HOL system. * Applications of mechanized higher order logic. * Industrial experience of higher order logic theorem proving. * Comparison of the HOL formulation and other higher order logics. * Comparison of HOL and other theorem provers. * Implementation issues for higher order logic theorem provers. * Linking HOL (and related systems) to other theorem provers. All submissions to the workshop will be reviewed by referees appointed by the programme committee. VENUE ===== Malta is a small island in the centre of the Mediterranean. It has a wealth of history, a reputation for warm hospitality, and an excellent climate. The workshop will be held at the Foundation for International Studies, which is housed in the Capital, Valletta, in the original premises of the Collegium Melitense. INVITED SPEAKERS ================ The preliminary list of invited speakers is N.G. de Bruijn Thomas Forster Mike Gordon Keith Hanna SUBMISSIONS =========== Potential authors are invited to submit papers under two categories: A) full research paper. B) informal progress report. Submissions accepted under category A will appear in the formal proceedings of the workshop. Category B is intended to provide a relatively open venue for the discussion and sharing of preliminary results; those wishing to submit progress reports and other preliminary results under category B are strongly encouraged to do so and should clearly mark their submissions as such. Copies of all papers accepted under category B will be distributed at the workshop, but not in the formal published proceedings. A paper submitted under category A may, at the discretion of the programme committee, be accepted under category B. All authors of accepted papers and progress reports will be asked to present their work at the conference. If, however, time constraints make it necessary, then authors of category B submissions may be asked to present their work in a poster session. All submissions should have at most 4500 words and must include an abstract of at most 150 words. All submissions must be clearly labelled with the submission category and accompanied by full contact information (contact person, email address, telephone number, and postal address). The Programme Chair should receive four hard copies of any submission in advance of the submission deadline, 21 March 1994. Electronic mail submissions in the form of Postcript are also welcome. Such submissions should be sent to the following address hug94@dcs.glasgow.ac.uk Only Postcript can be accepted, and authors must ensure that their papers can be printed on both A4 and 8.5x11 inch paper. All submissions received by electronic mail will be acknowledged. IMPORTANT DATES =============== * Deadline for submissions: 21 March 1994 * Notification of acceptance/rejection: 16 May 1994 * Camera-ready copy due (category A papers): 13 June 1994 * Camera-ready copy due (category B papers): 15 August 1994 * Workshop: 19-22 September 1994 The relatively early date for categogy A camera-ready copy reflects the intention of the organizers to have the published proceedings available at the conference itself.
