FoIKS-2020 (11th International Symposium on Foundations of Information and Knowledge Systems)

The FoIKS symposia (http://foiks.org/) provide a biennial forum that brings together researchers working on the theoretical foundations of information and knowledge systems and to attract researchers working in mathematical fields such as discrete mathematics, combinatorics, logics, and finite model theory who are interested in applying their theories to research on database and knowledge base theory. The goal is to provide researchers working in these areas with an opportunity to share research experiences, promote collaborations, and identify new issues and directions for future research.

2019 Edsger W. Dijkstra Prize in Distributed Computing
