========================================
*Call for papers - Special Session: Women in Logic Programming**
**ICLP 2020 - The 36th International Conference on Logic Programming*
September 18 - September 24, 2020
University of Calabria, Rende, Italy
https://iclp2020.unical.it
========================================

This special session aims to increase the visibility and impact of women 
in LP, fostering awareness of one another’s work. To have good role 
models is very important for female students and this session is an 
opportunity to celebrate women’s work in the community. We hope this 
will be particularly attractive to early-career women. The session will 
include one or two invited talks and presentations by women in logic 
programming.

Contributions are solicited in all areas of logic programming and 
related areas, with a special focus on applications that are beneficial 
to society
in the large, and to the role of women in society in particular. Any 
(female) student willing to participate to ICLP can submit their 
application  on the site: https://women.acm.org/scholarships/

Submission Process:
============
The submissions to this special session must be made via the EasyChair 
conference system (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=iclp20200).
All submissions must be written in English and co-authored by at least 
one woman. Authors should select the right track when submitting.

Two types of submissions are invited: Regular and short.
• Regular papers must be in the condensed TPLP format (template here) 
and   not exceed 14 pages including bibliography. Regular papers may be 
supplemented with appendices for proofs and details of datasets which do 
not count towards the page limit and which will not be made available as 
appendices to the published paper.
• Short papers (7 pages in EPTCS format (http://info.eptcs.org/), 
including references) can describe original preliminary work or express 
a position   on the special focus of the session. The accepted short 
papers will be   published as Technical Communications, along with the 
selected ICLP-TC   papers. All TCs will be presented during the 
conference, preferably by women. Authors of accepted papers will, by 
default, be automatically included in the list of ALP members, who will 
receive quarterly updates from the Logic Programming Newsletter at no cost.
