                 Call for Papers                        
                    UNIF 2014
  The 28th International Workshop on Unification
         July 13, 2014. Vienna, Austria
   a FLoC workshop hosted by RTA-TLCA and IJCAR
             http://vsl2014.at/unif
====================================================

UNIF 2014 is the 28th event in a series of international meetings devoted to 
unification theory and its applications. Unification is concerned with the 
problem of identifying terms, finding solutions for equations, or making 
formulas equivalent. It is a fundamental process used in a number of fields 
of computer science, including automated reasoning, term rewriting, logic 
programming, natural language processing, program analysis, types, etc. 

The International Workshop on Unification (UNIF) is a yearly forum for 
researchers in unification theory and related fields to meet old and new 
colleagues, to present recent (even unfinished) work, and to discuss new ideas 
and trends. It is also a good opportunity for young researchers and scientists 
working in related areas to get an overview of the current state of the art in 
unification theory. 


Topics
------
A non-exhaustive list of topics of interest includes:

 * syntactic and equational unification
 * matching
 * constraint solving
 * unification in modal, temporal, and description logics
 * narrowing
 * disunification
 * anti-unification
 * semi-unification
 * higher-order unification
 * complexity issues
 * implementation techniques
 * applications


Submission
----------
Short papers or extended abstracts, up to 5 pages in EasyChair style, should be 
submitted electronically as PDF files through the EasyChair submission site:
