(Apologies for multiple copies)

First Workshop on Automated Deduction for Separation Logics, Oxford, UK, July 13th 2018

http://adsl.univ-grenoble-alpes.fr/

The goal of this workshop is to bring together academic researchers and industrial practitioners focused on improving the state of the art of automated deduction methods for Separation Logics. We will consider technical submissions presenting work on the following topics (the list is not exclusive):

	• the integration of Separation Logics with SMT,
	• proof search and automata-based decision procedures for Separation Logics and sister logics such as Bunched Implication Logic;
	• computational complexity of logical problems such as satisfiability, entailment and abduction;
	• alternative semantics and computation models based on the notion of resource;
	• application of separation and resource logics to different fields, such as sociology and biology.

The workshop is affiliated with the 33rd Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS 2018) and part of the Federated Logic Conference 2018 (FLOC 2018).

The workshop will present the results of the second edition of SL-COMP, the competition of solvers for Separation Logic which is will be organised before the workshop. A separate call for contributions will follow for SL-COMP'18.

Invited speakers: 

David Pym (University College London and The Alan Turing Institute, UK)
Viktor Vafeiadis (Max Planck Institute for Software Systems, Kaiserslautern, Germany)
