Growing out of the series of meetings on Situation Theory and its Applications, the conference has broadened to include work on a wide range of foundational and applied issues on information. The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers from such fields as Computing, Linguistics, Logic, Philosophy and the Social Sciences. The themes of the conference include formal approaches to information and meaning, as well as applications in a number of relevant areas. Information about invited speakers and registration will be made available later this summer.
In addition to the conference, there will be an instructional workshop from 17-20 July. The workshop will include tutorial introductions to several of the topics of the conference.
