Each meeting includes invited talks and tutorials as well as contributed papers. The twenty-second WoLLIC will be held at the Department of Computer Science, Indiana University, Bloomington, from July 20th to 23rd, 2015. It is sponsored by the Association for Symbolic Logic (ASL), the Interest Group in Pure and Applied Logics (IGPL), the The Association for Logic, Language and Information (FoLLI), the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS), the European Association for Computer Science Logic (EACSL), the Sociedade Brasileira de Computação (SBC), and the Sociedade Brasileira de Lógica (SBL).</div><div><br></div><div>PROCEEDINGS</div><div>The proceedings of WoLLIC 2015, including both invited and contributed papers, will be published in advance of the meeting as volume 9160 in Springer's LNCS series. In addition, abstracts will be published in the Conference Report section of the Logic Journal of the IGPL, and selected contributions will be published as a special post-conference WoLLIC 2015 issue of Mathematical Structures in Computer Science, CUP (tbc).</div><div><br></div><div>INVITED TALKS</div><div>.

As a tribute to a recent breakthrough in mathematics, there will also be a screening of Csicsery's "Counting from Infinity: Yitang Zhang and the Twin Prime Conjecture" (2015) which centers on a very exciting string of mathematical discoveries that occurred during 2013, started when Yitang Zhang, a virtually unknown mathematician working as adjunct professor at the University of New Hampshire, submitted a paper to the Annals of Mathematics in April 2013.</div><div><br></div><div>PROGRAMME COMMITTEE</div><div>Juliana Küster Filipe Bowles (U St Andrews, Scotland)</div><div>Robin Cooper (U Gothenburg, Sweden)</div><div>Martín Escardó (U Birmingham, UK)</div><div>Nikos Galatos (U Denver, USA)</div><div>Achim Jung (U Birmingham, UK)</div><div>Sara Kalvala (U Warwick, UK)</div><div>Elham Kashefi (Edinburgh U, Scotland)</div><div>Peter Lefanu Lumsdaine (Institute for Advanced Study, USA)</div><div>Ian Mackie (U Sussex, UK)</div><div>Gerard de Melo (Tsinghua U, China)</div><div>Vivek Nigam (Federal U of Paraíba, Brazil)</div><div>Catarina Dutilh Novaes (U Groningen, The Netherlands)</div><div>Valeria de Paiva (Nuance Comm, USA) (CHAIR) </div><div>Luiz Carlos Pereira (PUC-Rio, Brazil)</div><div>Elaine Pimentel (Federal U of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil)</div><div>Alexandra Silva (Radboud Nijmegen U, The Netherlands)</div><div>Carolyn Talcott (SRI International, USA)</div><div>Josef Urban (Radboud Nijmegen U, The Netherlands)</div><div>Laure Vieu (IRIT-Toulouse, France) </div><div>Renata Wasserman (U São Paulo, Brazil)</div><div>Anna Zamansky (U Haifa, Israel)</div><div><br></div><div>STEERING COMMITTEE</div><div>Samson Abramksy, Johan van Benthem, Anuj Dawar, Joe Halpern, Wilfrid Hodges, Ulrich Kohlenbach, Daniel Leivant, Leonid Libkin, Angus Macintyre, Luke Ong, Hiroakira Ono, Ruy de Queiroz.</div><div><br></div><div>ORGANISING COMMITTEE</div><div>Daniel Leivant (Indiana U) (Local co-chair)</div><div>Larry Moss (Indiana U) (Local co-chair)</div><div>Anjolina G. de Oliveira (U Fed Pernambuco) </div><div>Ruy de Queiroz (U Fed Pernambuco) (co-chair)</div><div><br></div><div>REGISTRATION</div><div>Now open at <a href="http://www.indiana.edu/~iulg/wollic/registration.html" target="_blank">http://www.indiana.edu/~iulg/wollic/registration.html</a></div><div><br></div><div>ACCOMODATION</div><div>Please visit <a href="http://www.indiana.edu/~iulg/wollic/venue.html" target="_blank">http://www.indiana.edu/~iulg/wollic/venue.html</a></div><div><br></div><div>FURTHER INFORMATION</div><div>Contact one of the Co-Chairs of the Organising Committee.</div><div><br></div><div>WEB PAGE</div><div> <a href="http://www.indiana.edu/~iulg/wollic" target="_blank">www.indiana.edu/~iulg/wollic</a></div></div>
