                                Call for Papers
                                    LCMAS04
                             An ESSLLI04 Workshop on
                  Logic and Communication in Multi-Agent Systems

                  http://www.win.tue.nl/~evink/lcmas04.html

    The workshop, this year in its second edition, aims at bringing
    together graduate students and researchers interested in topics
    related to the use of formal tools when applied to modelling,
    specifying, verifying, and reasoning about multi-agent systems in
    which communication and updating play a crucial role. Specifically,
    the workshop aims at providing a forum for discussing technical issues
    that arise with formalisms (epistemic, temporal, dynamic and
    authentication logics and tools) inspired by the needs of modelling
    information exchanges in multi-agent systems.

    The workshop will be held within the context of ESSLLI04, the 2004
    edition of the European Summer School on Logic Language and
    Computation, to be held in Nancy in August 2004.

    PALA, The Poetics and Linguistics Association (http://www.pala.ac.uk/),
    one of the oldest and most successful international organizations
    dedicated to the study of stylistics and related fields, is holding its
    24th annual conference, its first in North America, at New York
    University, July 25-28, 2004. The full call for papers can be found at

    linguistics. We invite abstracts and proposals for panel discussions and
    workshops in the following and related areas of interest: stylistics,
    narratology, literariness, literary linguistics, stylistics and
    pedagogy, critical discourse analysis, gender and writing, literary
    translation studies, linguistics and philosophy, metaphor, cognition,
    cognitive poetics, pragmatics, text-linguistics, corpus linguistics,
    text world theory, corpus stylistics, and statistical stylistics.
