Call for Contributions
WiL 2024: 8th Women in Logic Workshop
July 9, 2024
Co-located with LICS/ICALP/FSCD 2024
https://sites.google.com/view/wil24
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Women in Logic 2024 is a satellite event of the 9th International
Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2024)
to be held in Tallinn, Estonia, from July 10 to July 13, 2024.

The Women in Logic workshop (WiL) provides an opportunity to increase
awareness of the valuable contributions made by women in the area of logic
in computer science. Its main purpose is to promote the excellent research
done by women, with the ultimate goal of increasing their visibility and
representation in the community. Our aim is to:

* provide a platform for women researchers to share their work and
achievements;
* increase the feelings of community and belonging, especially among junior
faculty, post-docs and students through positive interactions with peers
and more established faculty;
* establish new connections and collaborations;
* foster a welcoming culture of mutual support and growth within the logic
research community.

We believe these aspects will benefit women working in logic and computer
science, particularly early-career researchers.

Previous versions of Women in Logic (Reykjavík 2017, Oxford 2018, Vancouver
2019, Paris 2020, Rome 2021, Haifa 2022, Rome 2023) were very successful in
showcasing women's work and as catalysts for a recognition of the need for
change in the community.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to: automata theory,
automated deduction, categorical models and logics, concurrency and
distributed computation, constraint programming, constructive mathematics,
database theory, decision procedures, description logics, domain theory,
finite model theory, formal aspects of program analysis, formal methods,
foundations of computability, games and logic, higher-order logic, lambda
and combinatory calculi, linear logic, logic in artificial intelligence,
logic programming, logical aspects of bioinformatics, logical aspects of
computational complexity, logical aspects of quantum computation, logical
frameworks, logics of programs, modal and temporal logics, model checking,
probabilistic systems, process calculi, programming language semantics,
proof theory, real-time systems, reasoning about security and privacy,
rewriting, type systems and type theory, and verification.

GRANTS
A limited number of travel grants is available for students/young
researchers who would not otherwise have resources to attend WiL, and whose
attendance would benefit both the applicant and the event. We expect to be
able to help with registration/local/travel expenses. Applicants should
note that grants are limited, and that costs in excess of the grant will
not be reimbursed.

Grants will be awarded to (co-)authors of accepted papers, based on the
grant committee's assessment of the applicant's genuine financial need, the
potential benefit to the applicant's education and research, and the
potential benefit to WiL.

Applications should be sent by May 14th 2024 via the form:

https://forms.gle/UZkgGz53X6CYy2Tg6

The award notification date is May 15th, 2024.

The grants will be presented at the conferences; in case a grantee does not
attend, the chairs may transfer the grant to another student or give no
award.

The grants are kindly offered by ACM SIGLOG and Jane Street.
