		      Call For Workshop Proposals

 The third Federated Logic Conference (FLOC'02), will be held at the
 University of Copenhagen, Denmark, in July 2002, hosted at DIKU. The
 following seven conferences will participate in FLoC:

   * Conference on Automated Deduction (CADE).

   * Conference on Computer-Aided Verification (CAV).

   * Conference on Formal Methods (FM).

   * International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP).

   * IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS).

   * Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA).

   * Conference on Analytic Tableaux and Related Methods (TABLEAUX).

 For more information see http://floc02.diku.dk/. 

 The organizers have made arrangements to facilitate the running of
 pre-, post-, and mid-FLoC workshops. Each workshop will have its own
 registration. It is not necessary to register for FLoC in order to
 attend workshops. Meeting rooms and accommodations have been reserved
 at the Hans Christian Orsted Institute for

   * Pre-FLoC workshops: Saturday July 20-Sunday July 21, 2002.

   * Mid-FLoC workshops: Thursday July 25-Friday July 26, 2002.

   * Post-FLoC workshops: Wednesday July 31-Thursday August 1, 2002. 

 Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit proposals for
 workshops on topics relating logic, broadly understood, to computer
 science. Each workshop proposal must indicate one sponsoring
 conference among the participating conferences. (It is suggested that
 prospective workshop organizers contact the conference program chair
 before submitting a proposal.) The sponsoring conference will have to
 accept financial responsibility for the workshop. The FLoC Organizing
 Committee will determine the final list of accepted workshops based on
 the recommendations from the sponsoring conferences and subject to the
 availability of space and facilities.

 Proposals should consist of two parts. First, a short scientific
 justification of the proposed topic, its significance, and the
 particular benefits of a workshop. A second, organizational, part
 should include:

   * contact information about organizers

   * proposed format and agenda

   * procedures for selecting papers and participants

   * duration (which may vary from one day to two days) and preferred period.

   * proposed sponsoring conference 

 Additional organizational plans may include:

   * potential invited speakers

   * demo sessions

   * plans for proceedings or other publications 

 Proposals are due May 15, 2001. Organizers will be notified by June
 15, 2001. Proposals may be submitted either electronically or in hard
 copy, and should be addressed to the Program Chair of the sponsoring
 conference as well as to
