Description:
ESSLLI
The European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information (ESSLLI)
is a yearly recurring event, which has been organized since 1989. An
ESSLLI Summer School provides an interdisciplinary setting in which
courses and workshops are offered in logic, linguistics and computer
science. Courses (foundational, introductory and advanced) and
workshops cover a wide variety of topics within three
interdisciplinary areas of interest: language and computation, logic
and language, and logic and computation. In addition to the workshops
and courses there are usually four evening lectures, given by
prominent researchers, on topics that are at the forefront of research
in logic, language and computer science, also from wider scientific,
historical, and philosophical perspectives. Its relevance to students
of artificial intelligence is evident.
The event lasts two full weeks, and is traditionally held in the
beginning or midst of August.  ESSLLI attracts  every year around 400
participants from all parts of Europe, as well as from North and Latin
America, and Asia.  Participation by people from economically weaker
countries is made possible by ESSLLI funding. The ESSLLI has become
the main meeting place for young researchers and students in logic,
linguistics and computer science to discuss current research and to
share knowledge. The event is unique in its interdisciplinary set up,
with no equivalents in Europe. It is organized under the auspices of
the Association for Logic, Language and Information (FoLLI).
In addition to regular courses and workshops, 4 evening lectures are
organized. Since 2018, one of the evening lectures is the Dick Oehrle
Memorial Lecture. All evening lectures are open to the general public.
Since 1996, PhD and advanced students have their own daily meeting
place at ESSLLI's student session, organized by and for the students,
and with its own yearly prizes.
The Beth Prize award ceremony and lecture is organized by the FoLLI
board. All ESSLLI participants are welcome to attend.
