GENERAL INFORMATION
This conference is the 18th in a series of international meetings on
Automated Reasoning with Analytic Tableaux and Related Methods.
In July 2009, the conference will be held in Oslo, Norway. The
conference proceedings will be published in the LNAI series as in
the previous editions of the conference.
See http://tableaux09.ifi.uio.no/ for more information on TABLEAUX
2009, and http://i12www.ira.uka.de/TABLEAUX for information about
the TABLEAUX conference series.
Tableaux 2009 will be collocated with FTP 2009, the workshop on
First-Order Theorem Proving, see
http://www.mpi-inf.mpg.de/~sofronie/ftp09/
TOPICS
Tableau methods are a convenient formalism for automating deduction
in various non-standard logics as well as in classical logic. Areas
of application include verification of software and computer
systems, deductive databases, knowledge representation and its
required inference engines, and system diagnosis. The conference
brings together researchers interested in all aspects - theoretical
foundations, implementation techniques, systems development and
applications - of the mechanization of reasoning with tableaux and
related methods.
Topics of interest include (but are not restricted to):
* analytic tableaux for various logics (theory and applications)
* related techniques and concepts, e.g., model checking and BDDs
* related methods (model elimination, sequent calculi,
connection method, ...)
* new calculi and methods for theorem proving in classical and
non-classical logics (modal, description, intuitionistic, linear,
temporal, many-valued...)
* systems, tools, implementations and applications.
As in previous years, TABLEAUX 2009 puts a special emphasis on
applications. Papers describing applications of tableaux and related
methods in areas such as hardware and software verification,
semantic technologies, knowledge engineering, etc. are particularly
invited.
One or more tutorials will be part of the conference program.
SUBMISSIONS
The conference will include contributed papers, tutorials, system
descriptions, position papers and invited lectures. Submissions are
invited in four categories:
A Research papers (reporting original theoretical and/or experimental
research, up to 15 pages)
B System descriptions (up to 5 pages)
C Position papers and brief reports on work in progress
D Tutorials in all areas of analytic tableaux and related methods
from academic research to applications (proposals up to 5 pages)
Submissions in categories A and B will be reviewed by peers,
typically members of the program committee. They must be unpublished
and not submitted for publication elsewhere. For category B
submissions a working implementation must exist and be available to
the referees. After the notification, there will be a rebuttal
phase of three days during which the authors of rejected papers will
have the opportunity to respond to the reviews. Accepted papers in
these categories will be published in the conference proceedings.
Submissions in category C will be reviewed by members of the program
committee and a collection of the accepted papers in this category
will be published as a Technical Report of the University of Oslo.
The deadline for the submission of tutorial (Category D) and
workshop proposals is Friday, 9. Jan 2009. Check information on the
web page for details.
Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their work at the
conference.
STUDENT SPONSORING
Apart from significantly reduced conference fees, students will have
access to budget accommodation at a rate of about 100 EUR for the
whole week. If necessary, we will be able to provide further
financing help. Lack of funds should not prevent you from
submitting a paper to Tableaux 2009!
