ACM SIGLOG or SIGLOG is the Association for Computing Machinery Special Interest Group on Logic and Computation. It publishes a news magazine (SIGLOG News), and has the annual ACM-IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS) as its flagship conference.[1] In addition, it publishes an online newsletter, the SIGLOG Monthly Bulletin (formerly the LICS Newsletter),[2] and "maintains close ties" with the related academic journal ACM Transactions on Computational Logic.[3]
The creation of this special interest group was suggested in 2007 by Moshe Vardi and Dana Scott, and Vardi was the primary author of a more detailed proposal for its creation. It was founded in 2014, with Prakash Panangaden as its founding chair, and with Andrzej Murawski as the founding editor of the newsletter.[1][4]

Alonzo Church Award
In 2015, SIGLOG established, in cooperation with EATCS, EACSL and the Kurt Gödel Society, the Alonzo Church Award for Outstanding Contributions to Logic and Computation.[5] The list of past award winners is maintained by the EACSL.[6][7]
- 2016 Rajeev Alur and David Dill "for their invention of timed automata, a decidable model of real-time systems, which combines a novel, elegant, deep theory with widespread practical impact."
- 2017 Samson Abramsky, Radha Jagadeesan, Pasquale Malacaria, Martin Hyland, Luke Ong, and Hanno Nickau "for providing a fully-abstract semantics for higher-order computation through the introduction of game models, thereby fundamentally revolutionising the field of programming language semantics, and for the applied impact of these models."
- 2018 Tomás Feder and Moshe Y. Vardi "for fundamental contributions to the computational complexity of constraint-satisfaction problems."
- 2019 Murdoch J. Gabbay and Andrew M. Pitts for "their ground-breaking work introducing the theory of nominal representations, a powerful and elegant mathematical model for computing with data involving atomic names."
- 2020 Ronald Fagin, Phokion G. Kolaitis, Renée J. Miller, Lucian Popa, and Wang-Chiew Tan for "their ground-breaking work on laying the logical foundations for data exchange."
- 2021 Georg Gottlob, Christoph Koch, Reinhard Pichler, Klaus U. Schulz, and Luc Segoufin for "fundamental work on logic-based web data extraction and querying tree-structured data."
- 2022 Dexter Kozen for "his fundamental work on developing the theory and applications of Kleene Algebra with Tests, an equational system for reasoning about iterative programs".
