== JELIA 2019 CONFERENCE  ==
The 16th edition of the European Conference on Logics in Artificial
Intelligence will take place from May 7 to 11 in Cosenza, organised by the
Department of Mathemathics and Computer Science of University of Calabria.

Logics have, for many years, laid claim to providing a formal basis for
the study and development of applications and systems in Artificial
Intelligence. With the depth and maturity of formalisms, methodologies,
and logic-based systems today, this claim is stronger than ever.

The European Conference on Logics in Artificial Intelligence (or Journées
Européennes sur la Logique en Intelligence Artificielle - JELIA) began
back in 1988, as a workshop, in response to the need for a European forum
for the discussion of emerging work in this field. Since then, JELIA has
been organised biennially, with proceedings published in the
Springer-Verlag series Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence. Previous
meetings took place in Roscoff, France (1988), Amsterdam, Netherlands
(1990), Berlin, Germany (1992), York, UK (1994), Évora, Portugal (1996),
Dagstuhl, Germany (1998), Málaga, Spain (2000), Cosenza, Italy (2002),
Lisbon, Portugal (2004), Liverpool, UK (2006), Dresden, Germany (2008),
Helsinki, Finland (2010), Toulouse, France (2012), Madeira, Portugal
(2014), Larnaca, Cyprus (2016).

The increasing interest in this forum, its international level with
growing participation from researchers outside Europe, and the overall
technical quality, has turned JELIA into a major biennial forum for the
discussion of logic-based approaches to artificial intelligence.
