======================================================================= We apologize if you receive this more than once. ======================================================================= CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS METHODS FOR MODALITIES 2 (M4M-1) Institute for Logic, Language and Computation University of Amsterdam November 29-30, 2001 www.science.uva.nl/~m4m DEADLINE: October 12, 2001 THEME The workshop Methods for Modalities' (M4M) aims to bring together researchers interested in developing proof tools and reasoning methods for modal logic broadly conceived, including description logic, hybrid logics, feature logic, temporal logic, etc. SPECIAL FEATURES To stimulate interaction and transfer of expertise, M4M will be centered around a number of long presentations by leading researchers; these presentations aim to provide both the general background and inside information in a number of key areas. To complement these, we are inviting submissions of short, focussed presentations aimed at highlighting new developments, and submissions of system demonstrations. M4M-2 is the second installment of this bi-anual workshop series. SUBMISSIONS We invite two kinds of submissions: research papers on proof tools and reasoning methods for modal logic as well as their applications; and system descriptions. Research papers need not be original; they can be up to 10 A4 size pages, and system descriptions can be up to 4 A4 size pages. System descriptions should focus on actual implementations, explaining system architecture issues and specific implementation techniques. Every system description should be accompanied by a system demo at M4M. The primary means of submission will be electronic, in PostScript format. Submissions should be sent to m4m@science.uva.nl. PROGRAM COMMITTEE The program committee for M4M consists of Carlos Areces (ILLC, The Netherlands), Stephane Demri (LSV, ENS de Cachan and Lab. LEIBNIZ, France), Joseph Halpern (Cornell University, USA), Ian Horrocks (University of Manchester, United Kingdom) [to be confirmed], Joost-Pieter Katoen (University of Twente, The Netherlands), Maarten de Rijke (ILLC, The Netherlands), Holger Schlingloff (University of Bremen, Germany), Renate Schmidt (University of Manchester, United Kingdom).
