PLS13: THE THIRTEENTH PANHELLENIC LOGIC SYMPOSIUM

DISCLAIMER
Our intention is to have a meeting with physical presence, in the spirit of the symposium in all its previous meetings. If this becomes difficult due to the worsening of the pandemic, we will consider other options ranging from an online event to postponing the event to 2022. Any further updates on this front will be posted on the symposium’s webpage.
In any case, we will have a normal Call for Papers procedure; that is, submitted papers will be peer-reviewed and all accepted papers will appear in the electronic (informal) proceedings that we shall post on the event’s webpage.
