Oxford authors have had seven papers accepted at the Joint Meeting of the Twenty-Third EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL) and the Twenty-Ninth Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS). This joint conference is being held in Vienna in July 2014 as part of the Vienna Summer of Logic, which will bring together thousands of logic researchers from across the academic spectrum. CSL/LICS will be the most important academic event for logic in computer science in 2014.
