LFCS'16 Program Committee: Sergei Artemov (New York, NY) - PC Chair; Eugene Asarin (Paris); Steve Awodey (Pittsburgh, PA); Matthias Baaz (Vienna); Alexandru Baltag (Amsterdam); Lev Beklemishev (Moscow); Andreas Blass (Ann Arbor, MI); Samuel Buss (San Diego, CA); Thierry Coquand (Göteborg); Robert Constable (Ithaca, NY); Ruy de Queiroz (Recife); Nachum Dershowitz (Tel Aviv); Melvin Fitting (New York); Sergey Goncharov (Novosibirsk); Denis Hirschfeldt (Chicago, IL); Martin Hyland (Cambridge); Rosalie Iemhoff (Utrecht); Hajime Ishihara (JAIST - Kanazawa); Bakhadyr Khoussainov (Auckland); Roman Kuznets (Vienna); Daniel Leivant (Bloomington, IN); Robert Lubarsky (Boca Raton, FL); Victor Marek (Lexington, KY); Lawrence Moss (Bloomington, IN); Anil Nerode (Ithaca, NY) - General LFCS Chair; Hiroakira Ono (JAIST - Kanazawa);  Ramaswamy Ramanujam (Chennai); Michael Rathjen (Leeds); Jeffrey Remmel (San Diego); Helmut Schwichtenberg (Munich); Philip Scott (Ottawa); Alex Simpson (Ljubljana); Sonja Smets (Amsterdam); Sebastiaan Terwijn (Nijmegen); Alasdair Urquhart (Toronto).  

Submission details. 

Proceedings will be published in the LNCS series. There will be a post-conference volume of selected works published, presumably, in the Annals of Pure and Applied Logic. Submissions should be made electronically via 

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lfcs2016 

Submitted papers must be in PDF/12pt format and of no more than 15 pages, present work not previously published, and must not have been submitted concurrently to another conference with refereed proceedings.  LFCS issues the Best Student Paper Award, named after John Barkley Rosser Sr. (1907-1989), a prominent American logician with fundamental contributions in both Mathematics and Computer Science.

Important Dates.

Submissions deadline: midnight September 6, 2015, any time zone.

Notification: October 10, 2015.

Symposium dates: January 4 morning - January 7 early afternoon, 2016.

Local Arrangements.

The venue of LFCS 2016 will be the spectacular Wyndham Deerfield Beach Resort, 2096 NE 2nd Street, Deerfield Beach, Florida 33441.

About LFCS. 

The LFCS series provides an outlet for the fast-growing body of work in the logical foundations of computer science, e.g., areas of fundamental theoretical logic related to computer science. The LFCS series began with Logic at Botik, Pereslavl-Zalessky, 1989 and was co-organized by Albert R. Meyer (MIT) and Michael Taitslin (Tver), after which organization passed to Anil Nerode in 1992. LFCS has enjoyed support and endorsements from a number of bodies, including the US National Science Foundation (NSF) and the City University of New York Research Foundation. Further Information about LFCS'16 will be posted at http://lfcs.info/lfcs-2016 .
