The biennial International Symposium on Foundations of Information and Knowledge Systems (FoIKS), successor of the Mathematical Fundamentals of Database Systems (MFDBS) conference series, aims to bring together researchers working on the theoretical foundations of information and knowledge systems and to attract researchers working in mathematical fields such as discrete mathematics, combinatorics, logics and finite model theory who are interested in applying their theories to research on database and knowledge base theory.
