January 15, 2004 Notification of acceptance February 18, 2004 Final version in electronic form March 27-28, 2004 Workshop in Barcelona AIMS AND SCOPE Rewriting logic (RL) is a natural model of computation and an expressive semantic framework for concurrency, parallelism, communication and interaction. It can be used for specifying a wide range of systems and languages in various application fields. It also has good properties as a metalogical framework for representing logics. In recent years, several languages based on RL (ASF+SDF, CafeOBJ, ELAN, Maude) have been designed and implemented. The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers with a common interest in RL and its applications, and to give them the opportunity to present their recent works, discuss future research directions, and exchange ideas. The topics of the workshop comprise, but are not limited to, * foundations and models of RL; * languages based on RL, including implementation issues; * RL as a logical framework; * RL as a semantic framework, including applications of RL to - object-oriented systems, - concurrent and/or parallel systems, - interactive, distributed, open ended and mobile systems, - specification of languages and systems; * extensions of RL, including - real-time and probabilistic extensions, - tile logic, - rewriting approaches to behavioral specifications; * verification techniques for RL specifications, including - equational and coherence methods, and - verification of properties expressed in modal and temporal logics; * comparisons of RL with existing formalisms having analogous aims, including - rho-calculus, - structural operational semantics, - concurrency calculi, - dynamic algebras. PAST EVENTS Previous WRLA workshops have been organized in - Asilomar, California, September 3-6, 1996, - Pont-a-Mousson, France, September 1-4, 1998, - Kanazawa, Japan, September 18-20, 2000, - Pisa, Italy, September 19-21, 2002. The proceedings of the WRLA workshops have been published as volumes 4, 15, 36, and 71 in the Elsevier ENTCS series, available at http://www.elsevier.nl/locate/entcs Selected papers from WRLA'96 have been published in a special issue of Theoretical Computer Science, Volume 285(2), 2002. LOCATION WRLA 2004 will be held in Barcelona, Spain in March 27-28, 2004. It is a satellite workshop of ETAPS 2004, the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software.

Papers must contain original contributions, be clearly written, and include appropriate reference to and comparison with related work. They must be unpublished and not submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere. Papers (of at most 15 pages) should be submitted electronically, preferably as PDF files, to the workshop email address [EMAIL PROTECTED] providing also a text-only abstract, and detailed contact information of the corresponding author. The final program of the workshop will also include system demonstrations and two invited presentations by Gilles Dowek Ecole Polytechnique & INRIA, Palaiseau Mario Rodriguez-Artalejo Universidad Complutense de Madrid Based on the quality and interest of the accepted papers, the program committee will study the possibility of preparing a special issue of a scientific journal in the field.
