[TYPES/announce] GaLoP 2015: Workshop on Games for Logic and Programming Languages

[Pierre Clairambault]

10th Workshop on Games for Logic and Programming Languages (GaLoP 2015)

London, United Kingdom, 11-12 April

http://www.gamesemantics.org

GaLoP is an annual international workshop on game-semantic models for 
logics and programming languages and their applications. This is an 
informal workshop that welcomes work in progress, overviews of more 
extensive work, programmatic or position papers and tutorials.

GaLoP X will be held in London, UK on 11-12 April 2015 as a satellite 
workshop of ETAPS (http://www.etaps.org/).

Areas of interest include:
   * Games and other interaction-based denotational models;
   * Games-based program analysis and verification;
   * Logics for games and games for logics;
   * Algorithmic aspects of game semantics;
   * Categorical aspects of game semantics;
   * Programming languages and full abstraction;
   * Higher-order automata and Petri nets;
   * Geometry of interaction;
   * Ludics;
   * Epistemic game theory;
   * Logics of dependence and independence;
   * Computational linguistics;
   * Games and multi-valued logics.

There will be no formal proceedings but the possibility of a special 
issue in a journal will be considered (the 2005, 2008, 2011 and 2014 
workshops led to special issues in Annals of Pure and Applied Logic).
