Call for Papers for the XVI Brazilian Logic Conference (EBL 2011)
including a session "Machines, from Turing to Quantum" dedicated to the celebration of the Centenary of Alan Turing's birth (1912-1954)
9-13 May 2011
Laboratório Nacional de Computação Científica - Petrópolis (RJ)

The Brazilian Logic Conference (EBL) is a traditional event on the agenda of several prominent researchers in Brazil and Latin America in the areas of Computer Science, Foundations and Philosophy of Science, Informatics, Artificial Intelligence, Logic and Mathematics.
Previous editions of the EBL have been a great success, attracting researchers from all over Latin America and elsewhere. The EBL has become an important meeting point and discussion forum for students and researchers interested in the interdisciplinary study of Logic.
In a total of five days about 10 plenary lectures and 70 original works will be presented, in up to three parallel sessions. In 2011, the EBL will also include a session "Machines, from Turing to Quantum", dedicated to the celebration of the Centenary of Alan Turing's birth (1912-1954).
In 2011, the EBL will be held at the National Laboratory for Scientific Computing (LNCC), at Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro. The President of the Scientific Committee is Newton Carneiro Affonso da Costa (USP and CLE) and the Chairman of the Organizing Committee is Oswaldo Chateaubriand (PUC-Rio and CLE).
The goal of the EBL is to encourage the dissemination and discussion of research papers in the area of Logic and their interconnections with the areas of Computer Science, Foundations and Philosophy of Science, Informatics, Artificial Intelligence and Mathematics.
Topics include:
Philosophical and Mathematical Logic, and Applications;
History and Philosophy of Logic;
Non-classical Logic and Applications;
Philosophy of Formal Sciences;
Foundations of Computer Science, Physics, and Mathematics, among others.

The previous editions of this conference were held in Campinas (1977), Campinas (1978), Recife (1979), Campinas (1980), Campinas (1981), São José dos Campos (1983), Rio de Janeiro (1984), São José dos Campos (1986), São Paulo (1988), Itatiaia (1993), Salvador (1996), Itatiaia (1999), Campinas (2003), Itatiaia (2006), and Paraty (2008).
Starting with EBL 2008, the conference includes a Logic School aimed at
undergraduate and graduate students with interest in Logic and related
fields, but also open to all interested parties. The Logic School will
happen on 7-8 May 2011, at the Instituto de Matemática e Estatística of
the Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF), at Niterói, Rio de Janeiro.
In 2011 the following short courses will be offered:

The Scientific Committee will consider the following items when selecting the accepted papers:
1. Relevance and importance of the topic;
2. Originality;
3. Quality of work;
4. Academic relevance of the author.
The list of accepted papers will be released on March 15, 2011. At least one author of each accepted paper must present the paper at the meeting.
