  • SIGLOG: Special Interest Group on Logic and Computation a Proposal
    SIGLOG: Special Interest Group on Logic and Computation A Proposal Natarajan Shankar Computer Science Laboratory SRI International Menlo Park, CA Mar 21, 2014 SIGLOG: Executive Summary Logic is, and will continue to be, a central topic in computing. ACM has a core constituency with an interest in Logic and Computation (L&C), witnessed by 1 The many Turing Awards for work centrally in L&C 2 The ACM journal Transactions on Computational Logic 3 Several long-running conferences like LICS, CADE, CAV, ICLP, RTA, CSL, TACAS, and MFPS, and super-conferences like FLoC and ETAPS SIGLOG explores the connections between logic and computing covering theory, semantics, analysis, and synthesis. SIGLOG delivers value to its membership through the coordination of conferences, journals, newsletters, awards, and educational programs. SIGLOG enjoys significant synergies with several existing SIGs. Natarajan Shankar SIGLOG 2/9 Logic and Computation: Early Foundations Logicians like Alonzo Church, Kurt G¨odel, Alan Turing, John von Neumann, and Stephen Kleene have played a pioneering role in laying the foundation of computing. In the last 65 years, logic has become the calculus of computing underpinning the foundations of many diverse sub-fields. Natarajan Shankar SIGLOG 3/9 Logic and Computation: Turing Awardees Turing awardees for logic-related work include John McCarthy, Edsger Dijkstra, Dana Scott Michael Rabin, Tony Hoare Steve Cook, Robin Milner Amir Pnueli, Ed Clarke Allen Emerson Joseph Sifakis Leslie Lamport Natarajan Shankar SIGLOG 4/9 Interaction between SIGLOG and other SIGs Logic interacts in a significant way with AI (SIGAI), theory of computation (SIGACT), databases (SIGMOD) and knowledge bases (SIGKDD), programming languages (SIGPLAN), software engineering (SIGSOFT), computational biology (SIGBio), symbolic computing (SIGSAM), semantic web (SIGWEB), and hardware design (SIGDA and SIGARCH).
