LPNMR'09

10th International Conference on

Logic Programming and Nonmonotonic Reasoning

Potsdam, Germany, 14-18 September, 2009

About the Conference

LPNMR'09 is the tenth in the series of international meetings on logic programming and nonmonotonic reasoning. Nine previous meetings were held in Washington, D.C., USA (1991), Lisbon, Portugal (1993), Lexington, Kentucky, USA (1995), Dagstuhl, Germany (1997), El Paso, Texas, USA (1999), Vienna, Austria (2001), Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA (2004), Diamante, Italy (2005), and Tempe, Arizona, USA (2007).

The special theme for LPNMR'09 is Applications of Logic Programming and Nonmonotonic Reasoning in general and Answer Set Programming (ASP) in particular. LPNMR'09 aims at providing a comprehensive survey of the state of the art of ASP/LPNMR Applications.

The proceedings of the conference will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science/Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (www.springer.com/lncs)series.

 

Aims and Scope

LPNMR is a forum for exchanging ideas on declarative logic programming, nonmonotonic reasoning and knowledge representation. The aim of the conference is to facilitate interactions between researchers interested in the design and implementation of logic-based programming languages and database systems, and researchers who work in the areas of knowledge representation and nonmonotonic reasoning. LPNMR strives to encompass theoretical and experimental studies that led or will lead to the construction of practical systems for declarative programming and knowledge representation.

Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original and unpublished research on nonmonotonic aspects of logic programming and knowledge representation. In addition to technical and original application papers, we also invite submissions of short papers, system descriptions, and summaries of existing successful applications of LPNMR systems, which will be presented in dedicated poster sessions. We particularly encourage papers on LPNMR techniques that in the past led to the development of significant applications.

Please consider urgent public transport information (due to S-Bahn unavailabilities) when planning your travel to Potsdam.
