Organizers: Marco Aiello, Ingrid van Loon, Yde Venema

Description:
In various applications there is a need for formal models of space and for formal languages for talking about such models. In sharp contrast to the related field of reasoning about time, modal logic approaches in this research area have been few and far between. However, this situation seems to change rapidly since quite recently a number of `spatial logics' have been proposed.

The workshop aims at bringing together researchers interested in formal representations of space, and particularly, in approaches based on modal logic.

Speakers: Philippe Balbiani, Luis Fariņas del Cerro, Volker Haarslev, Oliver Lemon, Ian Pratt, Vera Stebletsova, Yde Venema, Marco Aiello
