Call for Papers

The workshop on Boolean problems has an emphasis on the problems related to the solution of all kinds 
of high-dimension Boolean and discrete problems, and provides a forum for researchers and engineers 
from different disciplines to exchange ideas. The workshop is devoted to theoretical discoveries as well as 
practical applications. An aim of the workshop is to initiate possible collaborative research and to find 
new areas of application. It is intended to publish the papers in proceedings. The invited speakers
 - Mitch Thornton (SMU Dallas (Texas), USA),
 - Raimund Ubar (TTU Tallinn, Estonia), and
 - Vincent Gaudet (University of Waterloo, Canada) are presenting essential results of their research. 

Topics of interest (not limited to)

     Theory
        Properties and applications of Boolean Algebras
     Data Structures and Algorithms
        Modeling
        Specification of data structures/algorithms
        Complexity
     Program Systems/Software
        Fundamental software for the solution of Boolean Problems
        Comparison of efficiency
     Practical Applications
        Application of Boolean algebra in FPGA synthesis  
        Quantum logic, reversible logic, and multi-valued logic
        Solution of real-world problems
