Background
Continuing the highly successful series of Workshops on Automated
Reasoning, this event will provide an informal forum for the automated
reasoning community. The workshop aims to bring together
researchers from all areas of automated reasoning in order to foster
links and facilitate cross-fertilisation of ideas among researchers
from various disciplines; among researchers from academia, industry
and government; and between theoreticians and practitioners.
Details of the ARW organisation and of previous ARW events can be
found at
the ARW website.
Topics
The workshop will cover the full breadth and diversity of automated
reasoning and will include topics such as:
- Theorem proving in classical and non-classical logics
- Reasoning systems and mechanisms:
- Description logics
- Equational reasoning, unification
- Induction
- Constraint Satisfaction
- Combining reasoning systems
- Specialised decision procedures
- Formal methods in software analysis:
- Verification
- Formal Modelling
-
- Non-classical inference:
- Non-monotonic reasoning, abduction
- Intuitionistic reasoning
- Logic-based knowledge representation:
- Ontology specification
- Domain specific reasoning (spatial, temporal, epistemic etc.)
- Reasoning for agents (or about agents)
- Interactive theorem proving
- Implementation issues and empirical results
- Applications of automated reasoning
Submissions
We invite the submission of camera-ready, two-page extended abstracts
about recent work, work in progress, or a system description. The
abstract can describe work that has already been published elsewhere.
Anyone wishing to attend but not interested in presenting should send
a shorter position statement (1/2 - 1 page).
The main objective of the abstracts is to spread information about
recent work in our community, and we expect to accept most on-topic
submissions, but we may ask for revisions.
To prepare your submission, please use the LaTeX style file provided on
the workshop web page:
http://arw09.csc.liv.ac.uk/arw09_latex.tar.
Each submission should include the names and complete addresses
(including email) of all authors. Correspondence will be sent to the
first author, unless otherwise indicated.
Submissions should be sent in in either Postscript or PDF format by
email to the workshop organisers at:
U.Hustadt@liverpool.ac.uk.
Publication
Abstracts will be published in informal workshop notes and be made
available on the internet.
Presentations
Each workshop attendee will be allocated a 5-10 minute slot (depending
on time constraints), for a short talk to introduce their research.
Each attendee will also be allocated space in a poster session, where
they can further present and discuss their work. Please prepare
posters for the event.
Student Grants
We have a limited number of grants available to PhD students who wish
to attend ARW 2009. To indicate your interest please send a short
email to the workshop organisers (U.Hustadt@liverpool.ac.uk) anytime
before 10th April 2009.
