<BR>
The Department of Computer Science at TU Munich (located at the
<a href="http://www.in.tum.de/campus/index.html.en">Campus Garching</a>)
would like to host the 22nd TPHOLs.
<H4>Timing and Programme</H4>
Following the traditional timing of TPHOLs, we propose to hold the
conference August 17-20 2009 (alternatively August 24-27).
<p>
We expect the conference will consist of four days of fully refereed
research paper presentations, invited talks, and poster presentations
for work-in-progress. Moreover, half a day will be dedicated to an
excursion, followed by the conference dinner in the evening. We aim
to provide plenty of time between the formal sessions for attendees to
mingle and converse, since we believe this to be a very valuable
aspect of the conference.
<p>
As in previous years we will seek to publish the main proceedings as a
volume of Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science, and also to
continue the tradition of offering a venue for the presentation of
work-in-progress. The latter will be published as a separate
volume. Both volumes will be prepared in time to be available for the
conference.
<p>
Our computer science building at the Campus Garching provides
excellent facilities for lectures, coffee breaks, lunch, and Internet
connectivity via WLAN.

<p>
The <a href="http://www.in.tum.de/campus/index.html.en">Campus
Garching</a> is located 10 km north of the city of Munich. There are
frequent Underground connections, taking about half an hour from the
very center of Munich to the department of Computer Science.
<p>
Munich offers a wide range of accommodation facilities and
restaurants. Late August is usually the best season for enoying the
many beer gardens.
<H4>Finance</H4> We will seek to keep the costs for attending the
conference low. In particular, funding for invited speakers will be
available from the <a
