## SCOPE

Since the first conference In Marseille in 1982, ICLP has been the  
premier international event for presenting research in logic  
programming. Contributions are sought in all areas of logic  
programming, including but not restricted to:

## Theoretical Foundations

Formal and operational semantics, Non-monotonic reasoning, Reasoning  
under uncertainty, Knowledge representation, Semantic issues of  
combining logic and neural models, Complexity results.

## Language Design and Programming Methodologies

Concurrency and parallelism, Mobility, Interacting with ML Logic-based  
domain-specific languages, Hybrid logical and imperative/functional  
languages, Programming techniques, Answer Set Programming, Inductive  
Logic Programming, Constraint Programming, Coinductive Logic  
Programming

## Program Analysis and Optimization

Analysis, Transformation, Verification, Debugging, Profiling,  
Visualization, Logic-based validation of generated programs.

## Implementation Methodologies

Compilation, Parallel/distributed execution, Constraint  
implementation, Tabling, Logic-based prompt engineering, User  
interfaces.

## TRACKS AND SPECIAL SESSIONS

In addition to the main track, ICLP 2024 will host:

- Applications Track: invites submissions on emerging and deployed  
applications of LP, describing aspects of the development,  
deployment, and evaluation of logic programming systems to solve  
real-world problems, including interesting case studies, benchmarks,  
and lessons learned.

- Recently Published Research Track: provides a forum to discuss  
important recent results related to logic programming that have  
appeared (from January 2022 onward) in selective journals and  
conferences, but have not been presented at ICLP.

- System Demonstrations. We invite submissions to showcase logic  
programming systems in a live setting. This track is not designed  
for sales pitches. Rather demonstrations are a way for the community  
to see the relevance, potential, and innovation of the system and to  
allow time for discussion with its creator(s).

- Birds of a Feather (BoF) Sessions. We invite proposals for break-out  
sessions during ICLP to provide informal discussions for colleagues  
with similar interests in inclusive environments. BoFs are not  
intended to be presentations: proposers of BoF sessions should serve  
as discussion leaders only.

## AFFILIATED EVENTS

- 2024 Autumn School in Computational Logic: October 11-12
- Workshops: October 12-13, 2024
- Doctoral Consortium and Mentoring Sessions: October 12-13, 2024  
provides students and early career researchers with the opportunity  
to present and discuss their research directions, obtain feedback  
from both peers and experts, and participate in mentoring sessions  
on how to prepare for and succeed in a research career. Leaders in  
logic programming research from academia and industry give invited  
talks on their research areas. The best paper from the DC will be  
given the opportunity to make a presentation in the main ICLP  
conference.
- Logic Programming in Industry: October 14, 2024

## SUBMISSION DETAILS

All submissions must be written in English. Papers accepted at ICLP may  
appear either in

- The journal Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP)  
published by Cambridge University Press. TPLP format is described at  
[https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/theory-and-practice-of-logic-programming/information/instructions-contributors](https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/theory-and-practice-of-logic-programming/information/instructions-contributors)

- The ICLP 24 Technical Communication Proceedings published by  
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science (EPTCS).  
EPTCS format is described at [http://style.eptcs.org](http://style.eptcs.org)

All accepted papers will be presented during the conference. Authors of  
accepted papers will by default be automatically included in the list of  
ALP members, who will receive quarterly updates from the Logic  
Programming Newsletter at no cost. The forms of submission are as  
follows.

- Main and Application Tracks All papers must describe original,  
previously unpublished research, and must not simultaneously be  
submitted for publication elsewhere. (These restrictions do not  
apply to previously accepted workshop papers with a limited audience  
and/or without archival proceedings.)

- Recently Published Research Track We invite extended abstracts  
describing previously published research (from January 2022 onwards)  
in selective journals and conferences, that has not been previously  
presented at ICLP. The extended abstract should be 2-3 pages in  
EPTCS format and accompanied by a title page with (i) details on  
where the original paper appeared, (ii) a link to the original  
paper, (iii) a paragraph describing why the authors believe this  
work warrants a presentation at ICLP. The extended abstracts will be  
published in the Technical Communication Proceedings.

- System Demonstrations We invite extended abstracts (2 or 3 pages in  
EPTCS format) describing systems to be demonstrated in a session of  
ICLP. System demonstrations should provide highlights of the novel  
features of the system, along with information about how to access  
it. Accepted abstracts will be published in the Technical  
Communication Proceedings.

- Birds of a Feather (BoF) Proposals Finally we invite extended  
abstracts (2-3 pages in EPTCS format) that propose breakout sessions  
that may take place during the ICLP 24 conference. BOF proposals  
should motivate the relevance of the topic to logic programming,  
describe the expected audience, identify discussion leaders and  
their expertise, and provide a brief description of the activities  
during the session. BoF proposals should also discribe the planned  
practices to promote inclusion and to foster attendee involvement.  
Accepted abstracts will be published in the Technical Communication  
Proceedings.

Submissions will be made via EasyChair. The submission Web page for

## VENUE

ICLP’24 will be held on the campus of the University of Texas at Dallas  
in October 2024. Dallas, part of the Dallas/Fort-Worth metroplex, is a  
dynamic city with great tourist attractions. Renowned for its unique  
blend of modernity and rich cultural heritage, Dallas offers an array of  
attractions for visitors: from diverse range of museums, such as the  
Dallas Museum of Art and the Perot Museum of Nature and Science, to the  
Fort Worth Stockyards that feature the Cattle Drive (twice daily).  
Dallas boasts a thriving culinary scene, from sizzling steakhouses to  
trendy food trucks, to authentic Tex-Mex cuisine. With a wealth of  
entertainment options, including shopping districts, live music venues,  
and sports events, a visit to Dallas is a memorable experience.
