Aims and Scope

The aim of Multiple-Valued Logic - An International Journal (MVL-IJ) is to publish and disseminate knowledge in the field of multiple-valued logic and related areas.

Specific Topics include (but are not limited to):

MVL and Soft Computing: neural networks, evolutionary computation, fuzzy systems, computational intelligence, cost-effectiveness;

Mathematical Aspects of MVL: algebra, logic, spectral methods;

Engineering Aspects of MVL: circuit design, programmable logic, hardware and software verification, testing, analog and digital VLSI and ULSI, new concept devices and architectures, carrier computing (biocomputing, optical computing, ...);

MVL and Automated Reasoning: machine learning, reasoning, theorem proving, expert systems;

Computer Science and MVL: databases, massively parallel systems, collision-based computing;

Fuzzy Logic and MVL: theoretical and practical aspects;

Philosophical Aspects of MVL.

Papers should contain original results or survey papers that have neither been submitted to, nor appeared in any journal or book.

Contributions can be submitted directly to any member of the editorial board.
