24th International Workshop on Unification
14 July 2010, Edinburgh, UK
A FLoC workshop associated to RTA and IJCAR
http://www.dcs.kcl.ac.uk/staff/maribel/UNIF.html


This workshop promotes research and collaboration in the area of
unification theory and related fields, including constraint solving
and applications of unification to theorem proving and programming
languages. It encourages the presentation of new directions,
developments and results, as well as tutorials on existing knowledge
in this area.

Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:
* General E-unification and calculi
* Narrowing
* Matching algorithms
* Special unification algorithms
* Higher-order and nominal unification
* Constraint solving
* Disunification
* Combination problems
* Complexity analysis
* Implementation techniques
* Applications: type checking and reconstruction,
automated theorem proving, programming language design, etc.
System descriptions and demonstrations are also welcome.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
The submission is in two stages.
1)Before the workshop, authors are invited to submit an abstract
(max. 5 pages) in pdf format, using the Easychair submission
site. Accepted abstracts will be presented at the workshop and
included in the preliminary proceedings, available at the workshop.
2) After the workshop, authors will be invited to submit a paper based
on their presentation, which will be refereed for inclusion in the
final workshop proceedings published by EPTCS.

We also invite authors to submit a 5 page abstract describing relevant
work that has been or will be published elsewhere, or work in
progress. Submissions in this class will be only considered for
presentation at the workshop and inclusion in the preliminary
proceedings but not in the final proceedings.
