CALL FOR PARTICIPATION:  IWS 2010

International Workshop on Strategies in Rewriting, Proving, and Programming
Edinburgh, Scotland, July 9, 2010

iws2010 AT inria DOT fr
                   
Affiliated with FLoC (July 9-21, 2010)

EARLY REGISTRATION DEADLINE: May 17
-------------------------------------------------------------

Strategies are ubiquitous in programming languages, automated
deduction and reasoning systems. In the two communities of Rewriting
and Programming on one side, and of Deduction and Proof engines
(Provers, Assistants, Solvers) on the other side, workshops have been
launched to make progress towards a deeper understanding of the nature
of strategies, their descriptions, their properties, and their usage,
in all kinds of computing and reasoning systems. Since more recently,
strategies are also playing an important role in rewrite-based
programming languages, verification tools and techniques like SAT/SMT
engines or termination provers. Moreover strategies have come to be
viewed more generally as expressing complex designs for control in
computing, modeling, proof search, program transformation, and access
control.  FLoC 2010 provides an excellent opportunity to foster
exchanges between the communities of Rewriting and Programming on one
side, and of Deduction and Proof engines on the other side.

This workshop is a joint follow-up of two series of workshops, held
since 1997: the Strategies workshops held by the CADE-IJCAR community
and the Workshops on Reduction Strategies (WRS) held by the RTA-RDP
community.
