IWIL 2012 - 9th International Workshop on the Implementation of Logics

The 9th International Workshop on the Implementation of Logics will be held in March 2012 in conjunction with the 18th International Conference on Logic for Programming, Artificial Intelligence, and Reasoning in Merida, Venezuela.
We are looking for contributions describing implementation techniques for and implementations of automated reasoning programs, theorem provers for various logics, logic programming systems, and related technologies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
?Propositional logic and decision procedures, including SMT
?First-order and higher order logics
?Formal foundations for efficient implementation of logics
?Data structures and algorithms for the efficient representation and processing of logical concepts
?Proof search organization and heuristics for logical reasoning systems
?Practical constraint handling
?Reasoning with ontologies
?Implementation of efficient theorem provers for different logics
?Implementation of efficient model finders for different logics
?Implementation of efficient systems for other processes in logic
?System descriptions of logical reasoning systems
?Issues of reliability, witness generation, and witness verification
?Evaluation and benchmarking of provers and other logic-based systems
?I/O standards and communication between reasoning systems
We are particularly interested in contributions that help the community to understand how to build useful and powerful reasoning systems, and how to apply them in practice.
Researchers interested in participating are invited to submit a position statement (2 pages), a short paper (up to 5 pages), or a full papers (up to 15 pages) via the EasyChair page for IWIL-2012.
Submissions will be refereed by the program committee, which will select a balanced program of high-quality contributions.
Submissions should be in standard-conforming PDF. Final versions will be required to be submitted in LaTeX using the easychair.cls class file. Proceedings will be published as EasyChair Proceedings.
If number and quality of the submissions warrant it, we plan to produce a special issue of a recognized journal on the topic of the workshop.
