21st International Conference on Logic Programming
October 2-5, 2005
Sitges (Barcelona) Spain
co-located with CP 2005
Since the first conference held in Marseilles in 1982, ICLP has been the premier international conference for presenting research in logic programming. Contributions (papers and posters) are sought in all areas of logic programming. Specific attention will be given to work providing novel integrations of these different areas, and to new applications of logic programming in general. Contributions on applications will be assessed with an emphasis on their impact and synergy with other areas, as opposed to technical maturity. Applications of logic programming to the Semantic Web are especially encouraged. The technical program will include several invited talks and advanced tutorials, in addition to the presentations of the accepted papers and posters. A special session on industrial applications of logic programming is also planned and several workshops will be held in parallel with the conference. For the first time, a doctoral student consortium will be organized as part of ICLP.
Conference Program
The program included the three invited speakers sghared with CP 2005:
- Ian Horrocks: OWL: a Description Logic Based Ontology Language
- Francesca Rossi: Preference Reasoning
- PeterStuckey: The G12 Project: Mapping Solver Independent Models to Efficient Solutions
and the tutorial:
- Vitor Santos Costa: Challenges in Learning Logic Programs: From Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) to Statistical Relational Learning (SRL)
The program included the Solar Eclipse on Monday October 3rd, during the morning, covering around 85% of the solar surface.
Complete list of regular contributions is available from the DBLP Database

VENUE
ICLP 2005 was held at Melia Sitges Hotel, located in Sitges, Barcelona, Spain. Sitges is a town 15 minutes away from the Barcelona international airport and 30 minutes from the center of Barcelona. The town of Sitges is situated in the Catalan region of Spain, and it is a well-established tourist resort and residential area thanks to its warm climate and fantastic natural panoramic views. Melia Sitges Hotel Congress Center is located on the sea-front facing the Mediterranean and is within five-minute walking distance from the city center.
