<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif, serif, EmojiFont; background-color: transparent;">The FoIKS symposia provide a biennial forum for presenting and discussing theoretical and applied research on information and knowledge systems.
The goal is to bring together researchers with an interest in this subject, share research experiences, promote collaboration and identify new issues and directions for future research.</span></p>

<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif, serif, EmojiFont; background-color: transparent;">FoIKS 2024 solicits original contributions (as well as extensions of previously published contributions) dealing with any foundational aspect of
information and knowledge systems. This includes submissions that apply ideas, theories or methods from specific disciplines to information and knowledge systems. Examples of such disciplines are discrete mathematics, logic and algebra, model theory, information
theory, (parameterized) complexity theory, algorithmics and computation, statistics, and optimisation, among, of course, many others.</span></p>
