ALI, the Association for Logic in India, announces the next edition of its biennial (International)
Indian Conference on Logic and its Applications (ICLA), to be held at the Institute of Mathematical
Sciences, Chennai, from January 10 to 12, 2013.

The conference proceedings are expected to be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer 
Science series.

ICLA is a forum for bringing together researchers from a wide variety of fields that formal logic 
plays a significant role in, along with mathematicians, philosophers and logicians studying 
foundations of formal logic in itself.  The conference has also included studies in systems of 
logic in the Indian tradition, and historical research on logic. See the ALI page 
(http://ali.cmi.ac.in) for information on past events as well as updates on this conference.

The earlier events in this series featured many eminent logicians as invited speakers, and we are 
pleased to announce that this year's speakers will include:

     Mirna Dzamonja, University of East Anglia

     Joseph Halpern, Cornell University

     Agi Kurucz, King's College London

     Martin Otto, Technische Universität Darmstadt

     Mark Reynolds, University of Western Australia

     Adriane Rini, Massey University

     Gabriel Sandu, University of Helsinki


Scope
-----

Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original and unpublished research in any area of 
logic and applications. Papers on topics of current interest in pure and applied logic, foundations
and philosophy of mathematics and the sciences, set theory, model theory, proof theory, areas of 
theoretical computer science, artificial intelligence and other disciplines which are of direct 
interest to mathematical and philosophical logic, as well as articles on the relationship between 
logic and other branches of knowledge, or on history of logic, are welcome.

Submitted papers will be peer-reviewed and accepted papers will be published in the conference 
proceedings, which will be made available at the time of the conference. The conference proceedings
will appear as a volume in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.
