Computer Science Logic (CSL) is the annual conference of the European
Association for Computer Science Logic (EACSL). The conference is
intended for computer scientists whose research activities involve
logic, as well as for logicians working on issues significant for
computer science. CSL 2016 is the 25th EACSL annual conference, and will
be organized by Aix-Marseille Université in Marseille, France.


Scope
-----

Suggested topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

  * automated deduction and interactive theorem proving,
  * constructive mathematics and type theory,
  * equational logic and term rewriting,
  * automata and games, game semantics,
  * modal and temporal logic,
  * model checking,
  * decision procedures,
  * logical aspects of computational complexity,
  * finite model theory,
  * computational proof theory,
  * bounded arithmetic and propositional proof complexity,
  * logic programming and constraints,
  * lambda calculus and combinatory logic,
  * domain theory,
  * categorical logic and topological semantics,
  * database theory,
  * specification, extraction and transformation of programs,
  * logical aspects of quantum computing,
  * logical foundations of programming paradigms,
  * verification and program analysis,
  * linear logic,

  * nonmonotonic reasoning.


Invited Speakers
----------------

         Alexandra Silva - University College, London, UK
         Anca Muscholl - University of Bordeaux, France
         Agata Ciabattoni - University of Vienna, Austria
         Libor Barto - University of Prague, Czech Republic


Satellite events
----------------

Three affiliated workshops will be held as co-located events in the
days following the conference:

    LCC'16: Logic and Computational Complexity 2016 (September 2)
    PLRR: Parametricity, Logical Relations and Realizability (September 2)
    QSLC: Quantitative Semantics of Logic and Computation (September 2-3)


Submission guidelines
---------------------

We expect that the CSL 2016 conference proceedings will be published
in Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs).

Authors are invited to submit papers of no more than 15 pages in LIPIcs
style (including references) presenting work not previously published,
fitting the scope of the conference.

The submission is in two stages:
  * abstracts are due on April 8, 2016 (AoE);
  * final papers are due on April 15, 2016 (AoE).

Both stages must be done via the EasyChair page for the conference:

   https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=csl2016

Submitted papers must be written in English and must provide sufficient
detail to allow the Programme Committee to assess the merits of the
paper. Full proofs may appear in a technical appendix which will be read
at the reviewers’ discretion. Authors are strongly encouraged to include
a well written introduction which is directed at all members of the PC.

Papers must not be submitted concurrently to another conference with
refereed proceedings. The PC chairs should be informed of closely related
work submitted to a conference or a journal. Papers authored or
co-authored by members of the PC are not allowed.
