QPL 2024 - First Call for Papers
===========================

The 21st International Conference on Quantum Physics and Logic (QPL 2024)

Buenos Aires, Argentina, July 15-19, 2024

https://qpl2024.dc.uba.ar

Quantum Physics and Logic is an annual conference that brings together academic and industry researchers working on mathematical foundations of quantum computation, quantum physics, and related areas. The main focus is on the use of algebraic and categorical structures, formal languages, type systems, semantic methods, as well as other mathematical and computer scientific techniques applicable to the study of physical systems, physical processes, and their composition. Work applying quantum-inspired techniques and structures to other fields (such as linguistics, artificial intelligence, and causality) is also welcome.

===========================
Important Dates
===========================

Abstract submission deadline: 26 February 2024
Paper submission deadline: 4 March 2024
Notification: 29 April 2024
Camera-ready deadline: 15 June 2024
Conference: 15 July – 19 July 2023

===========================
Submissions guidelines
===========================

Prospective speakers are invited to submit one (or more) of the following:

* Proceedings paper. This consists of a 5-12 page paper. It must provide sufficient evidence of results of genuine interest, in sufficient detail, for the program committee to assess the merits of the work. Proceedings submissions must use the EPTCS style files.

* Talk proposal. This consists of a 3-page summary along with a link to a separate published paper or preprint. If the published paper or preprint is not publicly available (e.g. not open access), then it must be included in full after the summary.

* Poster. This consists of a 3-page abstract of (partial) results or work in progress.

* Programming tool submission. This consists of a 3-page description of a programming tool or framework, with a strong preference for open-source contributions.

Submission is via EasyChair at the following URL:

===========================
Presentations
===========================

Authors of accepted submissions will be invited to present their work during the conference (e.g. by giving a talk, presenting a poster, or tool demo).

There will be an award for Best Student Paper at the discretion of the Program Committee. Papers eligible for the award are those where all the authors are students at the time of submission.

===========================
Conference Proceedings
===========================

Conference proceedings will be published in Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science (EPTCS) after the conference.
