Call for Papers

Call For Papers

WoLLIC 2026 invites work in logic, language, information, and computation. The section below now carries the full submission and publication guidance, so authors can see scope, format, and proceedings expectations in one place.

1Scientific Scope

Contributions are invited on all pertinent subjects, with particular interest in cross-disciplinary topics. Typical but not exclusive areas of interest are:

Foundations of computing, programming, and AI
Novel models and paradigms of computation
Broad notions of proof, belief, and inference
Proof mining, type theory, effective learnability, and explainable AI
Formal methods in software and hardware development
Logical approaches to natural language
Logics of programs, actions, and resources
Foundations of mathematics and philosophical logic

2Submission Guidelines

01

Proposed contributions should be written in English and should offer a scholarly exposition accessible to non-specialists, including motivation, background, and comparison with related work.

02

Submissions must use Springer's LNCS LaTeX format and may not exceed 12 pages, with up to 5 additional pages for references and technical appendices.

03

The paper's main results must not be published or under review in other refereed venues, including journals and scientific meetings.

04

Each accepted paper is expected to be presented in person by one of its authors at the workshop.

05

At least one author must pay a full on-site registration fee before the paper is confirmed for publication in the proceedings.

3Proceedings & Journal

Publication path

The proceedings of WoLLIC 2026, including invited and contributed papers, are planned to appear as a volume in Springer's LNCS series.

Because the timeline is earlier this year, the proceedings will be published after the workshop.

Abstracts will also appear in the Conference Report section of the Logic Journal of the IGPL.

Selected contributions are expected to be considered for a special post-conference WoLLIC 2026 journal issue after a new round of reviewing and final journal confirmation.
