SCOPE

The LICS Symposium is an annual international forum on theoretical and practical topics in computer science that relate to logic, broadly construed. We invite submissions on topics that fit under that rubric. Suggested, but not exclusive, topics of interest include: 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, foundations of probabilistic, real-time and hybrid systems, games and logic, higher-order logic, knowledge representation and reasoning, lambda and combinatory calculi, linear logic, logic programming, logical aspects of AI, 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, process calculi, programming language semantics, proof theory, reasoning about security and privacy, rewriting, type systems, type theory, and verification.

LICS 2025 invited speakers are Anuj Dawar, Hongseok Yang, Rustan Leino (tutorial), Christine Tasson (tutorial).


PAPER SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

Submission deadlines are firm; late submissions will not be considered. All submissions will be electronic via easychair.
Authors are required to submit a paper title and a short abstract of about 100 words in advance of submitting the full paper, by 16 January 2025.

Submissions should use IEEE Proceedings 2-column 10pt format and may be at most 12 pages, excluding references. Formatting instructions, latex style files and further submission information is at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://lics.siglog.org/lics25/cfp.php__;!!IBzWLUs!QbsGX3P85WZJhOvqo51jPieC8jBRmiw-9gvUk5blU9A3wgh5iz3T2AZurA6fq2oZJ8cX8DZxn0jY4nMdR2ZGe4wgtKx851TUODBFoQ$ . 

LICS 2025 will use a lightweight double-blind reviewing process. Please see the website for further details and requirements from the double-blind process.

The official publication date may differ from the first day of the conference. The official publication date may affect the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. We will clarify the official publication date in due course.

Programme chairs: Lars Birkedal and Barbara König.
