*IMPORTANT NOTE: We are continuously monitoring the COVID-19 situation
from local authorities and the World Health Organization. ICLP 2020 is
half a year away, and we are confident that COVID-19 emergency will pass
  over and the conference will be held in September, as planned. And, if
necessary, alternative solutions, such as postponement, remote
presentations, etc will be looked into and identified.*


*** Call for Papers - Special Session: Women in Logic Programming ***
                              ICLP 2020
          The 36th International Conference on Logic Programming
                    September 18 - September 24, 2020
                   University of Calabria, Rende, Italy
                      https://iclp2020.unical.it

This special session aims to increase the visibility and impact of women
in LP, fostering awareness of one another’s work. To have good role models
is very important for female students and this session is an opportunity
to celebrate women’s work in the community. We hope this will be 
particularly
attractive to early-career women. The session will include one or two 
invited
talks and presentations by women in logic programming.

Contributions are solicited in all areas of logic programming and related
areas, with a special focus on applications that are beneficial to society
in the large, and to the role of women in society in particular.

Any (female) student willing to participate to ICLP can submit their
application  on the site: https://women.acm.org/scholarships/

Submission Process:
===================
The submissions to this special session must be made via the EasyChair
conference system (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=iclp20200).

All submissions must be written in English and co-authored by at least one
woman. Authors should select the right track when submitting.

Two types of submissions are invited: Regular and short.
• Regular papers must be in the condensed TPLP format (template here) and
   not exceed 14 pages including bibliography. Regular papers may be
   supplemented with appendices for proofs and details of datasets which do
   not count towards the page limit and which will not be made available as
   appendices to the published paper.
• Short papers (7 pages in EPTCS format (http://info.eptcs.org/), including
   references) can describe original preliminary work or express a position
   on the special focus of the session. The accepted short papers will be
   published as Technical Communications, along with the selected ICLP-TC
   papers.
All TCs will be presented during the conference, preferably by women.
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.
