                   Second International Workshop on
                Logical Frameworks and Meta-Languages:
                         Theory and Practice
                               (LFMTP'07)

                             15 July, 2007
                            Bremen, Germany
              http://www.cs.mcgill.ca/~bpientka/lfmtp07/

                    A CADE-21 affiliated workshop
           http://www.cadeconference.org/meetings/cade21/


Logical frameworks and meta-languages form a common substrate for
representing, implementing, and reasoning about a wide variety of
deductive systems of interest in logic and computer science.  Their
design and implementation has been the focus of considerable research
over the last two decades, using competing and sometimes incompatible
basic principles.

This workshop will bring together designers, implementors, and
practitioners to discuss all aspects of logical frameworks.  Topics
include, but are not limited to:

- logical framework design
- meta-theoretic analysis
- applications and comparative studies
- implementation techniques
- efficient proof representation and validation
- proof-generating decision procedures and theorem provers
- proof-carrying code
- substructural frameworks
- semantic foundations
- methods for reasoning about logics
- formal digital libraries.
