First call for papers M4M-4 (Methods for Modalities 2005) The workshop "Methods for Modalities" (M4M) aims to bring together researchers interested in developing algorithms, verification methods and tools based on modal logics. Here the term "modal logics" is conceived broadly, including description logic, guarded fragments, conditional logic, temporal and hybrid logic, etc. To stimulate interaction and transfer of expertise, M4M will feature a number of invited talks by leading scientists, research presentations aimed at highlighting new developments, and submissions of system demonstrations. We strongly encourage young researchers and students to submit papers and posters, especially for experimental and prototypical software tools which are related to modal logics. Regular papers should not exceed the length of 12 pages; short papers are up to six pages of length, and posters and tools can be presented on two pages of text. Proceedings will appear online and as a Humboldt university report. Depending on the submissions, papers may be selected to appear in a special issue of an appropriate journal. Submission is by email. Either Postscript or PDF files can be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The workshop will take place in Berlin - Adlershof, Germany, which is one of the worlds largest science and technology areas, comprising twelve research institutes, six faculties of the Humboldt University of Berlin, and more than 370 high tech companies. It is hosted by FIRST, the Fraunhofer Institute of Computer Architecture and Software Technology, in collaboration with the computer science institute of Humboldt University.
