       CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

     FORMAL DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAMMING CONCEPTS:
          IFIP WG 2.2 Anniversary Meeting
               11-13 September 2006
                  Udine, Italy

The IFIP Working Group 2.2 was established in 1965 as one of the first
IFIP Working Groups. The primary aim of the WG is to explain
programming concepts through the development, examination and
comparison of various formal models of these concepts. The WG thus
explores the theory and the practice of formal methods for the
specification, verification and the design of software and systems.

Earliest members of the WG included Dana Scott, Erwin Engeler, Jaco de
Bakker, Raymond Abrial, Peter Lauer, Manfred Paul, Erich Neuhold,
Maurice Nivat, Ed Blum. Throughout the years, members of the WG shaped
various styles of semantics, comprising denotational, operational,
algebraic, and logical semantics.

The anniversary meeting commemorates the 40-th birthday of WG. In the
meeting, a number of keynote speakers and current members of the WG
will give tutorial presentations on topics relevant to the WG,
focusing on history (of these topics, or of the WG), but also on
current outlook and future developments.

Keynote speakers: Amir Pnueli, Igor Walukiewicz, and Ernst-Rudiger
Olderog (as current WG members), Dana Scott, Manfred Paul, and Hans
Langmaack (as founding WG members), Leslie Lamport and Gordon Plotkin  
(as
past WG members) .
