+ interactive theorem proving          + description logics
+ proof assistants                     + modal and temporal logics
+ proof planning                       + nonmonotonic reasoning
+ proof checking                       + constructive logic and type theory
+ rewriting and unification            + lambda and combinatory calculi
+ software and hardware verification   + logic programming
+ network and protocol verification    + constraint programming
+ systems specification and synthesis  + logical foundations of programming
+ model checking                       + computational interpretations of logic
+ proof-carrying code                  + logic and computational complexity
+ logic and databases                  + logic in artificial intelligence
+ reasoning over ontologies            + knowledge representation and reasoning
+ reasoning for the semantic web       + reasoning about actions

Full and short papers are welcome. Full papers may be either regular papers

or evaluations  of systems.  Short papers may  describe work in progress or 
provide  system descriptions.  Submitted papers  must be original,  and not 
submitted concurrently to a journal or another conference.

The full paper proceedings of LPAR-12 will be published by  Springer-Verlag
in the  LNAI series.  Authors of accepted full  papers will be  required to
