FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS — DEADLINE EXTENSION

— New deadline for submission ** February 7th, 2019 AoE ** —


   DICE-FOPARA 2019
   Joint international workshop on Developments in Implicit Computational 
complExity and Foundational and Practical Aspects of Resource Analysis

   6-7 April 2019, Prague; Satellite event of ETAPS 2019

https://conf.researchr.org/track/etaps-2019/dice-fopara-2019-papers


** Objectives **
The joint DICE-FOPARA workshop provides synergies by combining two 
complementary communities:
The DICE workshop explores the area of Implicit Computational Complexity 
(ICC), which grew out from several proposals to use logic and formal 
methods to provide languages for complexity-bounded computation (e.g. 
Ptime, Logspace computation). It aims at studying the computational 
complexity of programs without referring to external measuring 
conditions or a particular machine model, but only by considering 
language restrictions or logical/computational principles entailing 
complexity properties. Several approaches have been explored for that 
purpose, such as restrictions on primitive recursion and ramification, 
rewriting systems, linear logic, types and lambda calculus, 
interpretations of functional and imperative programs.
The FOPARA workshop serves as a forum for presenting original research 
results that are relevant to the analysis of resource (e.g.  time, 
space, energy) consumption by computer programs. The workshop aims to 
bring together the researchers that work on foundational issues with the 
researchers that focus more on practical results. Therefore, both 
theoretical and practical contributions are  encouraged. We also 
encourage papers that combine theory and practice.
The joint DICE-FOPARA workshop at ETAPS 2019 follows the successful 
experiences of co-location of DICE-FOPARA at ETAPS 2015 in London and 
ETAPS 2017 in Uppsala.


** TOPICS **
The joint workshop serves as a forum for presenting original and 
established research results that are relevant to the implicit 
computational complexity theory and to the analysis of resource (e.g. 
time, space, energy) consumption by computer programs. The workshop aims 
to bring together the researchers that work on foundational issues with 
the researchers that focus more on practical results. Therefore, both 
theoretical and practical contributions are encouraged, as well as 
papers that combine theory and practice.
Areas of interest to the workshop include, but are not limited to, the 
following:
- type systems for controlling/inferring/checking complexity;
- logical and machine-independent characterisations of complexity 
classes;
- programming languages for complexity-bounded computation;
- logics closely related to complexity classes;
- theoretical foundations of program complexity analysis;
- static resource analysis and practical applications;
- resource analysis by term and graph rewriting.
- semantics of complexity-bounded computation;
- applications of implicit complexity to security;
- termination and resource analysis for probabilistic programs;
- semantic methods to analyse resources, including 
quasi-interpretations;
- practical applications of resource analysis;


** Submissions **
We ask for submission of regular papers describing original work (up to 
15 pages) or extended abstracts (up to 5 pages) presenting already 
published work or work in progress.
With respect to regular papers, submissions will be in particular 
verified for originality and novelty and the manuscript must not have 
been already published, nor is presently submitted, elsewhere. With 
respect to submissions of extended abstracts, the goal is to provide a 
forum for discussing work in progress, but presentations of already 
published results are also welcome, provided those are within the scope 
of the workshop and potentially give rise to lively discussions during 
the meeting.
A special issue of an international journal devoted to the joint 
workshop may be proposed. In this case, the CFP will be posted after the 
workshop and will be open to long versions of papers presented at this 
venue, as well as other submissions relevant to the scientific scope.

Papers must be prepared using the LaTeX EPTCS style 
(http://style.eptcs.org/). Papers should be submitted electronically via 
the easychair submission page:
