Aims & Scope

The aim of the Journal of Multiple-Valued Logic and Soft Computing is to publish and disseminate knowledge in the areas related to multiple-valued logic and various disciplines that relate to soft computing, that is, to computing that is tolerant of imprecision, uncertainty, partial truth and approximative reasoning. Specific topics include (but are not limited to): -Logic: algebra, minimization, spectral methods -Circuits: Design, programmable logic, verification, testing, VLSI, ULSI -Artificial intelligence: automated reasoning, theorem proving, expert systems -Fuzzy logic: theoretical and practical aspects, fuzzy systems, fuzzy logic -Soft computing constituents: neural computing, evolutionary computation, heuristics -Machine learning and data mining -Applications of soft computing in science and engineering The editors of the Journal of Multiple-Valued Logic and Soft Computing invite your contributions.
