               SYNTAX MEETS SEMANTICS (SYSMICS 2016)
==============================================================
                 5-9 September 2016, Barcelona (Spain)

                  ***** SECOND CALL FOR ABSTRACTS *****

Scope
---------
Substructural logics are formal reasoning systems that refine classical
logic by weakening structural rules in a Gentzen-style sequent calculus.
Intuitionistic, many-valued, linear logics, are typical examples.
Traditionally, substructural logics have been investigated using proof
theoretic and algebraic methods. In recent years, combined approaches have
started to emerge.
The programme of the SYSMICS conference will focus on interactions between
syntactic and semantic methods in substructural logics.
This conference is the first of a series of meetings planned in the
SYSMICS RISE project during 2016-2019.

Featured topics
---------------------
Contributed talks can be on any topic related to substructural logic.
This includes, but is not limited to, the following areas:

* Algebraic structures in CS

* Gentzen systems
* Lattice theory
* Lattices with operators
* Linear logic
* Mathematical fuzzy logic
* Non-classical logics
* Ordered algebraic structures
* Proofs and Types
* Stone-type dualities
* Topological semantics
