From P.Achten at cs.ru.nl Mon Jan 2 10:39:20 2023 From: P.Achten at cs.ru.nl (Peter Achten) Date: Mon, 2 Jan 2023 16:39:20 +0100 Subject: [TYPES/announce] [TFP 2023 Call For Participation] 24th International Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming Message-ID: <56b940f6-55ac-af4a-05c6-1536bfdeb62a@cs.ru.nl> # TFP 2023 -- Call For Participation (trendsfp.github.io) ## Dates Registration:?? Friday 6th January, 2023 TFPIE Workshop: Thursday 12th January, 2023 TFP Symposium:? Friday 13th - Sunday 15th January, 2023 The Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP) is an international forum for researchers with interests in all aspects of functional programming, taking a broad view of current and future trends in the area. It aspires to be a lively environment for presenting the latest research results, and other contributions. This year, TFP will take place in-person at UMass Boston, Massachusetts in the United States.? It is co-located with the Trends in Functional Programming in Education (TFPIE) workshop, which will take on the day before the main symposium. ## Scope The symposium recognizes that new trends may arise through various routes. As part of the Symposium's focus on trends we therefore identify the following five article categories. High-quality articles are solicited in any of these categories: * Research Articles: ? Leading-edge, previously unpublished research work * Position Articles: ? On what new trends should or should not be * Project Articles: ? Descriptions of recently started new projects * Evaluation Articles: ? What lessons can be drawn from a finished project * Overview Articles: ? Summarizing work with respect to a trendy subject Articles must be original and not simultaneously submitted for publication to any other forum. They may consider any aspect of functional programming: theoretical, implementation-oriented, or experience-oriented. Applications of functional programming techniques to other languages are also within the scope of the symposium. Topics suitable for the symposium include, but are not limited to: * Functional programming and multicore/manycore computing * Functional programming in the cloud * High performance functional computing * Extra-functional (behavioural) properties of functional programs * Dependently typed functional programming * Validation and verification of functional programs * Debugging and profiling for functional languages * Functional programming in different application areas: ? security, mobility, telecommunications applications, embedded ? systems, global computing, grids, etc. * Interoperability with imperative programming languages * Novel memory management techniques * Program analysis and transformation techniques * Empirical performance studies * Abstract/virtual machines and compilers for functional languages * (Embedded) domain specific languages * New implementation strategies * Any new emerging trend in the functional programming area If you are in doubt on whether your article is within the scope of TFP, please contact the TFP 2023 program chair, Stephen Chang. ## Best Paper Awards TFP awards two prizes for the best papers each year. First, to reward excellent contributions, TFP awards a prize for the best overall paper accepted for the post-conference formal proceedings. Second, a prize for the best student paper is awarded each year. TFP traditionally pays special attention to research students, acknowledging that students are almost by definition part of new subject trends. A student paper is one for which the authors state that the paper is mainly the work of students, the students are listed as first authors, and a student would present the paper. In both cases, it is the PC of TFP that awards the prize. In case the best paper happens to be a student paper, then that paper will receive both prizes. ## Instructions to Authors Papers must be submitted at: ? Authors of papers have the choice of having their contributions formally reviewed either before or after the Symposium. Further, pre-symposium submissions may either be full (earlier deadline) or draft papers (later deadline). ## Pre-symposium formal review Papers to be formally reviewed before the symposium should be submitted before the early deadline and will receive their reviews and notification of acceptance for both presentation and publication before the symposium. A paper that has been rejected for publication but accepted for presentation may be resubmitted for the post-symposium formal review. ## Post-symposium formal review Draft papers will receive minimal reviews and notification of acceptance for presentation at the symposium. Authors of draft papers will be invited to submit revised papers based on the feedback receive at the symposium. A post-symposium refereeing process will then select a subset of these articles for formal publication. ## Paper categories Draft papers and papers submitted for formal review are submitted as extended abstracts (4 to 10 pages in length) or full papers (20 pages). The submission must clearly indicate which category it belongs to: research, position, project, evaluation, or overview paper. It should also indicate which authors are research students, and whether the main author(s) are students. A draft paper for which all authors are students will receive additional feedback by one of the PC members shortly after the symposium has taken place. ## Format Papers must be written in English, and written using the LNCS style. For more information about formatting please consult the Springer LNCS web site. ## Program Committee Peter Achten,????????????? Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands Nada Amin,????????????????

Systems of interest include biological and chemical systems; computer networks; cyber-physical systems; critical infrastructures; data-driven AI systems; energy systems; hardware and software systems; industrial systems; and mobility networks. QEST 2023 is the 20th conference in the series and will be held on 19-22 September 2023 in Antwerp, Belgium, as part of the CONFEST 2023 umbrella conference. Topics and scientific areas of interest include: ? languages and methods for the specification of quantitative properties of systems; ? quantitative and probabilistic aspects of programming; ? stochastic, probabilistic, and non-deterministic models and metrics for the correctness, performance, reliability, safety, and security of systems; ? algorithms for the evaluation and verification of stochastic, probabilistic, and non-deterministic models; ? data-driven and machine-learning techniques for the analysis, prediction, and verification of quantitative properties of systems; ? case studies that highlight the role of quantitative specification, modelling, and evaluation in the design and analysis of systems, with emphasis on emerging problems and technologies; ? novel tools to support the practical application of research results in all of the above areas. QEST 2023 will set up an artifact evaluation process (details below). QEST 2023 is open to theoretical, experimental, and applicative research. The conference welcomes a diversity of modelling formalisms, programming languages, and methodologies that incorporate quantitative aspects such as probabilities, temporal properties, rewards, and forms of non-determinism. Papers may advance the state of the art on empirical approaches, simulation methods, analysis techniques, and applications to industrially-relevant case studies. ** Invited Speakers QEST 2023 features a list of invited speakers that are partially shared with the other CONFEST 2023 conferences. QEST invited speakers: Frans A. Oliehoek, TU Delft, Netherlands David Parker, Oxford University, UK CONFEST invited speakers: Ahmed Bouajjani, Paris Diderot University, France Joost-Pieter Katoen, RWTH Aachen, Germany Nicolas Markey, University of Rennes, France Jaco van de Pol, Aarhus University, Denmark Anna Slobodova, Intel, USA ** Submissions QEST 2023 considers three types of papers (authors will be able to specify the type of contribution upon submission): ? Research papers: Theoretical, methodological, and application-based contributions that advance the understanding on a topic or issue, describe the development of new analysis processes and techniques, or apply quantitative methods to relevant case studies. ? Tool papers: New tools and the formalisms they support, focusing on the software architecture and practical implementation and use. Tool papers must be accompanied by an artifact in the Artifact Evaluation. ? Work-in-progress papers: We offer an opportunity to present preliminary results and receive feedback from the community. Work-in-progress contributions are not required to be fully worked-out approaches, for example regarding validation or technical depth; however the presented ideas should be mature enough to appreciate soundness and how they advance our knowledge. Research and tool papers can be regular or short: ? Regular papers must not exceed 14 pages, excluding references. ? Short papers should be limited to 7 pages, also excluding references. All papers can have an appendix containing supporting material. Note that reviewers are not required to read the appendix to fully assess the merits of the paper. Work-in-progress papers must not exceed 4 pages including references. All papers must be submitted in Springer?s LNCS format. All submitted papers must be unpublished and not be submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers should be submitted electronically using EasyChair via https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=qest2023__;!!IBzWLUs!VnLpaq-l5we7RYdB7e4i03X4_heSNurK-SdZ8oxZaI5fk89DYSWWFpGLgaMWj2zX2t3AJPK9tpIzNoKParPabzvdQdHh-dbX5I2O$ Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. Authors should consult Springer's authors' guidelines and use Springer's LaTeX templates for the preparation of their papers. Submitted papers not complying with the above guidelines may be rejected without undergoing review. ** Publications All accepted papers will be presented and discussed at the conference by one of the authors. The QEST 2023 proceedings will be published in the Springer LNCS series and indexed by ISI Web of Science, Scopus, ACM Digital Library, dblp, Google Scholar. All submitted papers will be evaluated by at least three reviewers on the basis of their originality, technical quality, scientific or practical contribution to the state of the art, methodology, clarity, and adequacy of references. ** Artifact Evaluation Reproducibility of experimental results is crucial to foster an atmosphere of trustworthy, open, and reusable research. To improve and reward reproducibility, QEST 2023 includes a dedicated Artifact Evaluation (AE). Submission of an artifact is mandatory for tool papers (both regular and short), and optional but encouraged for research papers where it can support the results presented in the paper. Artifacts will be reviewed concurrently with the paper review process, and accepted papers with a successfully evaluated artifact will receive a badge to be shown on the published paper's title page. Detailed guidelines for preparation and submission of artifacts are available at this page. Exceptions to the submission guidelines may be granted by the PC chairs in cases where the tool cannot in any reasonable way be run by the AE committee. ** Special Issues A selection of the best papers (excluding work-in-progress papers) will be invited to submit an extended version of their work to special issues in the International Journal on Software Tools for Technology Transfer (STTT) and in the Performance Evaluation (PEVA) journals. ** Important dates Abstract deadline: 30 April 2023 Paper deadline: 7 May 2023 Author notification: 29 June 2023 Conference: 20-22 September 2023 ** Committees Program Chairs Nils Jansen (The Netherlands) Mirco Tribastone (Italy) Artifact Evaluation Chairs Tim Quatmann (Germany) Carlos E.

Each issue of the journal is devoted to a particular subject area within programming languages and will be announced through publicised Calls for Papers, like this one. ### Scope [PACMPL](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://pacmpl.acm.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!TcGd5Wy6jluREp3aRh0aSlHbTTuFhapLvh2xUR7yHaqrnvFYQyXZRVaSAkkg-50H6XU3viwlQdWAYb2vROGamtrTqqQPkNGzHqa-XxYrLSk$ ) issue ICFP 2023 seeks original papers on the art and science of functional programming. Submissions are invited on all topics from principles to practice, from foundations to features, and from abstraction to application. The scope includes all languages that encourage functional programming, including both purely applicative and imperative languages, as well as languages with objects, concurrency, or parallelism. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Language Design: concurrency, parallelism, and distribution; modularity; components and composition; metaprogramming; macros; pattern matching; type systems; type inference; dependent types; effect types; gradual types; refinement types; session types; interoperability; domain-specific languages; imperative programming; object-oriented programming; logic programming; probabilistic programming; reactive programming; generic programming; bidirectional programming. * Implementation: abstract machines; virtual machines; interpretation; compilation; compile-time and run-time optimisation; garbage collection and memory management; runtime systems; multi-threading; exploiting parallel hardware; interfaces to foreign functions, services, components, or low-level machine resources. * Software-Development Techniques: algorithms and data structures; design patterns; specification; verification; validation; proof assistants; debugging; testing; tracing; profiling; build systems; program synthesis. * Foundations: formal semantics; lambda calculus; program equivalence; rewriting; type theory; logic; category theory; computational effects; continuations; control; state; names and binding; program verification. * Analysis and Transformation: control flow; data flow; abstract interpretation; partial evaluation; program calculation. * Applications: symbolic computing; formal-methods tools; artificial intelligence; systems programming; distributed systems and web programming; hardware design; databases; scientific and numerical computing; graphical user interfaces; graphics and multimedia; GPU programming; scripting; system administration; security. * Education: teaching introductory programming; mathematical proof; algebra. Submissions will be evaluated according to their relevance, correctness, significance, originality, and clarity. Each submission should explain its contributions in both general and technical terms, clearly identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and comparing it with previous work. The technical content should be accessible to a broad audience. PACMPL issue ICFP 2023 also welcomes submissions in two separate categories ? Functional Pearls and Experience Reports ? that must be marked as such when submitted and that need not report original research results. Detailed guidelines on both categories are given at the end of this call. Submissions from underrepresented groups are encouraged. Authors who require financial support to attend the conference can apply for PAC funding (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/PAC/__;!!IBzWLUs!TcGd5Wy6jluREp3aRh0aSlHbTTuFhapLvh2xUR7yHaqrnvFYQyXZRVaSAkkg-50H6XU3viwlQdWAYb2vROGamtrTqqQPkNGzHqa-3jzUVWE$ ). The General Chair and PC Chair may not submit papers. PC members (other than the PC Chair) may submit papers. However, SIGPLAN guidelines dictate that they be held to a higher standard: a PC paper can be accepted if after the discussion it has at least one strongly-supportive review and no detractors. Each PC member may be listed as a coauthor on a maximum of three submissions. Please contact the Programme Chair if you have questions or are concerned about the appropriateness of a topic. ### Preparation of submissions *Deadline*: The deadline for submissions is **Wednesday, March 1, 2023**, Anywhere on Earth (). This deadline will be strictly enforced. *Formatting*: Submissions must be in PDF format, printable in black and white on US Letter sized paper and interpretable by common PDF tools. All submissions must adhere to the "ACM Small" template that is available (in both LaTeX and Word formats) from . There is a limit of **25 pages for a full paper or Functional Pearl** and **12 pages for an Experience Report**; in either case, the bibliography and an optional clearly marked appendix will not be counted against these limits. Submissions that exceed the page limits or, for other reasons, do not meet the requirements for formatting, will be summarily rejected. See also PACMPL's Information and Guidelines for Authors at . *Submission*: Submissions will be accepted at Improved versions of a paper may be submitted at any point before the submission deadline using the same web interface. *Author Response Period*: Authors will have a 72-hour period, starting at 12pm UTC on *Monday, May 1, 2023*, to read reviews and respond to them. *Appendix and Supplementary Material*: Authors have the option to include a clearly marked appendix and/or to attach supplementary material to a submission, on the understanding that reviewers may choose not to look at such an appendix or supplementary material. Supplementary material may be uploaded as a separate PDF document or tarball. Any supplementary material **must** be uploaded **at submission time**, not by providing a URL in the paper that points to an external repository. Authors are free to upload both anonymised and non-anonymised supplementary material. Anonymised supplementary material will be visible to reviewers immediately; non-anonymised supplementary material (which must be submitted separately) will be revealed to reviewers only after they have submitted their review of the paper and learned the identity of the author(s). *Authorship Policies*: All submissions are expected to comply with the ACM Policies for Authorship that are detailed at . *Republication Policies*: Each submission must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy, as explained on the web at . *ORCID*: ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier (an ORCID iD) that you own and control, and that distinguishes you from every other researcher: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://orcid.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!TcGd5Wy6jluREp3aRh0aSlHbTTuFhapLvh2xUR7yHaqrnvFYQyXZRVaSAkkg-50H6XU3viwlQdWAYb2vROGamtrTqqQPkNGzHqa-SpC92ac$ . ACM now require an ORCID iD for every author of a paper, not just the corresponding author. So, the author who is filling out the permission form should make sure they have the ORCID iDs for all of their coauthors before filling out the form. Any authors who do not yet have an ORCID iD can go to https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://orcid.org/register__;!!IBzWLUs!TcGd5Wy6jluREp3aRh0aSlHbTTuFhapLvh2xUR7yHaqrnvFYQyXZRVaSAkkg-50H6XU3viwlQdWAYb2vROGamtrTqqQPkNGzHqa-ZWYm_Gc$ to have one assigned. ### Review Process This section outlines the two-stage process with lightweight double-blind reviewing that will be used to select papers for PACMPL issue ICFP 2023. **New this year**: ICFP 2023 will have an Associate Chair who will help the PC Chair monitor reviews, solicit external expert reviews for submissions when there is not enough expertise on the committee, and facilitate reviewer discussions. *PACMPL issue ICFP 2023 will employ a two-stage review process.* The first stage in the review process will assess submitted papers using the criteria stated above and will allow for feedback and input on initial reviews through the author response period mentioned previously. As a result of the review process, a set of papers will be conditionally accepted and all other papers will be rejected. Authors will be notified of these decisions on **May 18, 2023**. Authors of conditionally accepted papers will be provided with committee reviews along with a set of mandatory revisions. By June 15, 2023, the authors may provide a second submission. The second and final reviewing phase assesses whether the mandatory revisions have been adequately addressed by the authors and thereby determines the final accept/reject status of the paper. The intent and expectation is that the mandatory revisions can feasibly be addressed within three weeks. The second submission should clearly identify how the mandatory revisions were addressed. To that end, the second submission must be accompanied by a cover letter mapping each mandatory revision request to specific parts of the paper. The cover letter will facilitate a quick second review, allowing for confirmation of final acceptance within two weeks. Conversely, the absence of a cover letter will be grounds for the paper's rejection. *PACMPL issue ICFP 2023 will employ a lightweight double-blind reviewing process.* To facilitate this, submitted papers must adhere to two rules: 1. **author names and institutions must be omitted**, and 2. **references to authors' own related work should be in the third person** (e.g., not "We build on our previous work ..." but rather "We build on the work of ..."). The purpose of this process is to help the reviewers come to an initial judgement about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the paper more difficult (e.g., important background references should not be omitted or anonymised). In addition, authors should feel free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their papers as they normally would. For instance, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web or give talks on their research ideas. ### Information for Authors of Accepted Papers * As a condition of acceptance, final versions of all papers must adhere to the ACM Small format. The page limit for the final versions of papers will be increased by two pages to help authors respond to reviewer comments and mandatory revisions: **27 pages plus bibliography for a regular paper or Functional Pearl, 14 pages plus bibliography for an Experience Report**. * Authors of accepted submissions will be required to agree to one of the three ACM licensing options, one of which is Creative Commons CC-BY publication; this is the option recommended by the PACMPL editorial board. A reasoned argument in favour of this option can be found in the article [Why CC-BY?](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://oaspa.org/why-cc-by/__;!!IBzWLUs!TcGd5Wy6jluREp3aRh0aSlHbTTuFhapLvh2xUR7yHaqrnvFYQyXZRVaSAkkg-50H6XU3viwlQdWAYb2vROGamtrTqqQPkNGzHqa-K7T4WqI$ ) published by OASPA, the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association. The other options are copyright transfer to ACM or retaining copyright but granting ACM exclusive publication rights. * PACMPL is a Gold Open Access journal, and authors are encouraged to publish their work under a CC-BY license. Gold Open Access guarantees permanent free online access to the definitive version in the ACM Digital Library, and the recommended CC-BY option also allows anyone to copy and distribute the work with attribution. Gold Open Access has been made possible by generous funding through ACM SIGPLAN, which will cover all open access costs in the event authors cannot. Authors who can cover the costs may do so by paying an Article Processing Charge (APC). PACMPL, SIGPLAN, and ACM Headquarters are committed to exploring routes to making Gold Open Access publication both affordable and sustainable. * ACM Author-Izer is a unique service that enables ACM authors to generate and post links on either their home page or institutional repository for visitors to download the definitive version of their articles from the ACM Digital Library at no charge. Downloads through Author-Izer links are captured in official ACM statistics, improving the accuracy of usage and impact measurements. Consistently linking to the definitive version of an ACM article should reduce user confusion over article versioning. After an article has been published and assigned to the appropriate ACM Author Profile pages, authors should visit to learn how to create links for free downloads from the ACM DL. * The official publication date is the date the papers are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to *two weeks prior* to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. * Authors of each accepted submission are invited to attend and be available for the presentation of that paper at the conference. The schedule for presentations will be determined and shared with authors after the full program has been selected. ### Artifact Evaluation Authors of papers that are conditionally accepted in the first phase of the review process will be encouraged (but not required) to submit supporting materials for Artifact Evaluation. These items will then be reviewed by an Artifact Evaluation Committee, separate from the paper Review Committee, whose task is to assess how the artifacts support the work described in the associated paper. Papers that go through the Artifact Evaluation process successfully will receive a seal of approval printed on the papers themselves. Authors of accepted papers will be encouraged to make the supporting materials publicly available upon publication of the papers, for example, by including them as "source materials" in the ACM Digital Library. An additional seal will mark papers whose artifacts are made available, as outlined in the ACM guidelines for artifact badging. Participation in Artifact Evaluation is voluntary and will not influence the final decision regarding paper acceptance. ### Special categories of papers In addition to research papers, PACMPL issue ICFP solicits two kinds of papers that do not require original research contributions: Functional Pearls, which are full papers, and Experience Reports, which are limited to half the length of a full paper. Authors submitting such papers should consider the following guidelines. #### Functional Pearls A Functional Pearl is an elegant essay about something related to functional programming. Examples include, but are not limited to: * a new and thought-provoking way of looking at an old idea * an instructive example of program calculation or proof * a nifty presentation of an old or new data structure * an interesting application of functional programming techniques * a novel use or exposition of functional programming in the classroom While pearls often demonstrate an idea through the development of a short program, there is no requirement or expectation that they do so. Thus, they encompass the notions of theoretical and educational pearls. Functional Pearls are valued as highly and judged as rigorously as ordinary papers, but using somewhat different criteria. In particular, a pearl is not required to report original research, but, it should be concise, instructive, and entertaining. A pearl is likely to be rejected if its readers get bored, if the material gets too complicated, if too much-specialised knowledge is needed, or if the writing is inelegant. The key to writing a good pearl is polishing. A submission that is intended to be treated as a pearl must be marked as such on the submission web page and should contain the words "Functional Pearl" somewhere in its title or subtitle. These steps will alert reviewers to use the appropriate evaluation criteria. Pearls will be combined with ordinary papers, however, for the purpose of computing the conference's acceptance rate. #### Experience Reports The purpose of an Experience Report is to describe the experience of using functional programming in practice, whether in industrial application, tool development, programming education, or any other area. Possible topics for an Experience Report include, but are not limited to: * insights gained from real-world projects using functional programming * comparison of functional programming with conventional programming in the context of an industrial project or a university curriculum * project-management, business, or legal issues encountered when using functional programming in a real-world project * curricular issues encountered when using functional programming in education * real-world constraints that created special challenges for an implementation of a functional language or for functional programming in general An Experience Report is distinguished from a normal PACMPL issue ICFP paper by its title, by its length, and by the criteria used to evaluate it. * Both in the papers and in any citations, the title of each accepted Experience Report must end with the words "(Experience Report)" in parentheses. The acceptance rate for Experience Reports will be computed and reported separately from the rate for ordinary papers. * Experience Report submissions can be at most 12 pages long, excluding bibliography. * Each accepted Experience Report will be presented at the conference, but depending on the number of Experience Reports and regular papers accepted, authors of Experience Reports may be asked to give shorter talks. * Because the purpose of Experience Reports is to enable our community to understand the application of functional programming, an acceptable Experience Report need not add to the body of knowledge of the functional-programming community by presenting novel results or conclusions. It is sufficient if the Report describes an illuminating experience with functional programming, or provide evidence for a clear thesis about the use of functional programming. The experience or thesis must be relevant to ICFP, but it need not be novel. The review committee will accept or reject Experience Reports based on whether they judge the paper to illuminate some aspect of the use of functional programming. Anecdotal evidence will be acceptable provided it is well-argued and the author explains what efforts were made to gather as much evidence as possible. Typically, papers that show how functional programming was used are more convincing than papers that say \emph{only} that functional programming was used. It can be especially effective to present comparisons of the situations before and after the experience described in the paper, but other kinds of evidence would also make sense, depending on context. Experience drawn from a single person's experience may be sufficient, but more weight will be given to evidence drawn from the experience of groups of people. An Experience Report should be short and to the point. For an industrial project, it should make a claim about how well functional programming worked and why; for a pedagogy paper, it might make a claim about the suitability of a particular teaching style or educational exercise. Either way, it should produce evidence to substantiate the claim. If functional programming worked in this case in the same ways it has worked for others, the paper need only summarise the results ? the main part of the paper should discuss how well it worked and in what context. Most readers will not want to know all the details of the experience and its implementation, but the paper should characterise it and its context well enough so that readers can judge to what degree this experience is relevant to their own circumstances. The paper should take care to highlight any unusual aspects; specifics about the experience are more valuable than generalities about functional programming. If the paper not only describes experience but also presents new technical results, or if the experience refutes cherished beliefs of the functional-programming community, it may be better to submit it as a full paper, which will be judged by the usual criteria of novelty, originality, and relevance. The Program Chair will be happy to advise on any concerns about which category to submit to. ### ICFP Organisers General Chair: Nikhil Swamy (Microsoft Research, USA) Programme Chair: Sam Lindley (The University of Edinburgh, Scotland) Publicity Chair: Ilya Sergey (National University of Singapore, Singapore) Accessibility Co-Chairs: Vadim Zaliva (University of Cambridge, UK) and Calvin Beck (University of Pennsylvania, USA) Artifact Evaluation Chair: Jannis Limpberg (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands) Diversity Chair: Daan Leijen (Microsoft Research, USA) Industrial Relations Co-Chairs: Atze Dijkstra (Standard Chartered Bank, England) and Mathieu Bosepflug (Tweag I/O, France) Programming Contest Co-Organisers: Alperen Keles (University of Maryland, USA) and Aymeric Fromherz (Inria, France) Student Research Competition Chair: Daniel Hillerstr?m (The University of Edinburgh, Scotland) Video Chair: Apoorv Ingle (Iowa, USA) Workshops Co-Chairs: Arther Azevedo de Amorim (Boston University, USA) and Yannick Forster (Inria, France) ### PACMPL Volume 7, Issue ICFP 2023 Associate Editor: Sam Lindley (The University of Edinburgh, Scotland) Review Committee: Aggelos Biboudis, Oracle, Switzerland Alan Jeffrey, Roblox, USA Amos Robinson, Unaffiliated, Australia Andreea Costea, National University of Singapore, Singapore Andrew Hirsch, University of Buffalo, USA Andy Gill, Cerebrus Systems, USA Armando Solar-Lezama, MIT, USA Arnaud Spiwack, Tweag, France Benjamin C.

Their design, implementation and their use in reasoning tasks, ranging from the correctness of software to the properties of formal systems, have been the focus of considerable research over the last two decades. This workshop will bring together designers, implementors and practitioners to discuss various aspects impinging on the structure and utility of logical frameworks, including the treatment of variable binding, inductive and co-inductive reasoning techniques and the expressiveness and lucidity of the reasoning process. LFMTP 2023 will provide researchers a forum to present state-of-the-art techniques and discuss progress in areas such as the following: * Encoding and reasoning about the meta-theory of programming languages, logical systems and related formally specified systems. * Theoretical and practical issues concerning the treatment of variable binding, especially the representation of, and reasoning about, datatypes defined from binding signatures. * Logical treatments of inductive and co-inductive definitions and associated reasoning techniques, including inductive types of higher dimension in homotopy type theory. * Graphical languages for building proofs, applications in geometry, equational reasoning and category theory. * New theory contributions: canonical and substructural frameworks, contextual frameworks, proof-theoretic foundations supporting binders, functional programming over logical frameworks, homotopy and cubical type theory. * Applications of logical frameworks: proof-carrying architectures, proof exchange and transformation, program refactoring, etc. * Techniques for programming with binders in functional programming languages such as Haskell, OCaml or Agda, and logic programming languages such as lambda Prolog or Alpha-Prolog. The workshop's program will include contributed and invited talks. We hope that LFMTP takes place physically in Rome, but online participation will be possible and may even be necessary. ## Important Dates Abstract submission deadline: April 10 Paper submission deadline: April 20 Notification to authors: May 20 ## Submission Submit on EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lfmtp23__;!!IBzWLUs!QBYBRbKT83v6QBNSLIY7W_dTtaLLs9PK3k0WIyUt3QqHFbjGFFg5e8nVR1Hs6QKSM-DiiwMOjVexx4GWCBNoeBnBWF0-43v0ZTxAoQ$ All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.

The award is for an outstanding contribution represented by a paper or by a small group of papers published within the past 25 years. This time span allows the lasting impact and depth of the contribution to have been established. The award can be given to an individual, or to a group of individuals who have collaborated on the research. For the rules governing this award, see https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://siglog.org/alonzo-church-award/__;!!IBzWLUs!Qt50stRwgTIFXm5WXc29oxKB8kSH6y90fM9lyEehudUgcAMptQom0vUlIRYB9GxVdEGOSUAWDaiOAELswaMiE0BS9-kp4BgU$ , https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.eatcs.org/index.php/church-award/__;!!IBzWLUs!Qt50stRwgTIFXm5WXc29oxKB8kSH6y90fM9lyEehudUgcAMptQom0vUlIRYB9GxVdEGOSUAWDaiOAELswaMiE0BS91Yzl9YI$ , and https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.eacsl.org/alonzo-church-award/__;!!IBzWLUs!Qt50stRwgTIFXm5WXc29oxKB8kSH6y90fM9lyEehudUgcAMptQom0vUlIRYB9GxVdEGOSUAWDaiOAELswaMiE0BS96aHRN6N$ . The 2022 Alonzo Church Award was given to Dexter Kozen for his ground- breaking work on the theory and applications of Kleene Algebra with Tests. Lists containing this and all previous winners can be found through the links above. ELIGIBILITY AND NOMINATIONS The contribution must have appeared in a paper or papers published within the past 25 years. Thus, for the 2023 award, the cut-off date is January 1, 1998. When a paper has appeared in a conference and then in a journal, the date of the journal publication will determine the cut-off date. In addition, the contribution must not yet have received recognition via a major award, such as the Turing Award, the Kanellakis Award, or the Goedel Prize. (The nominee(s) may have received such awards for other contributions.) While the contribution can consist of conference or journal papers, journal papers will be given a preference. Nominations for the 2023 award are now being solicited. The nominating letter must summarise the contribution and make the case that it is fundamental and outstanding. The nominating letter can have multiple co-signers. Self-nominations are excluded. Nominations must include: a proposed citation (up to 25 words); a succinct (100-250 words) description of the contribution; and a detailed statement (not exceeding four pages) to justify the nomination. Nominations may also be accompanied by supporting letters and other evidence of worthiness. Nominations for the 2023 award are automatically considered for all future editions of the award, until they receive the award or the nominated papers are no longer eligible. Nominations should be submitted to dezani at di.unito.it and to mariangiola.dezani at gmail.com by February 1, 2023. PRESENTATION OF THE AWARD The 2023 award will be presented at the 50th EATCS International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming, which is scheduled to take place in Paderborn - Germany on July 10-14, 2023. The award will be accompanied by an invited lecture by the award winner, or by one of the award winners. The awardee(s) will receive a certificate and a cash prize of USD 2,000. If there are multiple awardees, this amount will be shared. AWARD COMMITTEE The 2023 Alonzo Church Award Committee consists of the following five members: Thomas Colcombet, Mariangiola Dezani (chair), Marcelo Fiore, Radha Jagadeesan, and Igor Walukiewicz. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Mariangiola Dezani-Ciancaglini Dipartimento di Informatica Universita' di Torino c.Svizzera 185, 10149 Torino (Italy) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The goal of the project is to develop an innovative model-driven methodology and framework that facilitates automation of planning concurrent workflows with highly automated analyses and tool support. Cross-organisational workflows involve multiple concurrently running workflows coming from different organisations. While tasks in these individual workflows may run independently in parallel, there are very often dependencies between them, e.g., execution orders or shared resources, which makes planning such workflows particularly challenging and error prone. The project aims to leverage various techniques in formal methods to model and analyse cross-organisational workflows in terms of concurrent programs, and to automate workflow revisioning upon changes in the dependencies. These are exciting positions for candidates interested in topics such as software verification, static analysis and formal modelling languages. The two prospective PhD students will work together and contribute to the project from three perspectives: - to design a formal modelling language for concurrent workflows with explicit notions of dependencies with respect to execution orders or shared resources, - to reconstruct existing workflows in the form of a formal model based on event logs, and - to develop automated formal analyses for the concurrent workflow models. The PhD students will collaborate with the project external partners of CroFlow, including Haukeland University Hospital in Bergen, Uppsala University in Sweden and the University of L?beck in Germany.

Projects my group is actively involved in include: - Performance analysis and optimization for CUDA kernels - Static analysis of the parallel dependency structure of code in order to aid reasoning and optimization - Languages and type systems for ensuring responsiveness and efficiency in workloads that are both interactive and highly parallel I'm also open to new projects along these general lines, according to the interest and experience of students. It's helpful to have some background in PL formalisms and type systems. As you can see, most of my active projects touch on concurrency or HPC in some way; experience and interest here is a plus but not necessary. Illinois Tech is located a few minutes from downtown Chicago in the historic, diverse Bronzeville neighborhood. Our high-performance computing group is among the top in the country and frequently collaborates with Argonne National Labs, just outside Chicago. Overall, this is an exciting place to be!

This special issue is related to the 2022 edition of the Software Language Engineering Conference (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2022.splashcon.org/home/sle-2022?__;!!IBzWLUs!Scgzfm8lXTRb2ybE6wBkQMW4yHgdpCg8e1p9xDGFNTHYYkQL2QYRLLFjJ96sTRr_rX2jR6hsTZRAW1A_oIAoxZw06dDnacLVcTSOzk9B$ ) but **it is open to all authors.** Details follow. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Journal of Systems and Software Software Language Engineering Special Issue Guest Editors ? Lola Burgue?o, University of Malaga, Spain ? Walter Cazzola, Professor, Universit? degli Studi di Milano, Italy ? Dimitris Kolovos, Professor, University of York, United Kingdom Special issue information: With the ubiquity of computers, software has become the dominating intellectual asset of our time. In turn, this software depends on software languages, namely the languages it is written in, the languages used to describe its environment, and the languages driving its development process. Given that everything depends on software and that software depends on software languages, it seems fair to say that for many years to come, everything will depend on software languages. Software language engineering (SLE) is the discipline of engineering languages and their tools required for the creation of software. It abstracts from the differences between programming languages, modeling languages, and other software languages, and emphasizes the engineering facet of the creation of such languages, that is, the establishment of the scientific methods and practices that enable the best results. While SLE is certainly driven by its meta-circular character (software languages are engineered using software languages), SLE is not self-satisfying: its scope extends to the engineering of languages for all and everything. This special issue will represent a further step in identification, definition and tooling of software languages. Topics of interest related to the special issue, but are not limited to: ? Software Language Design and Implementation ? Approaches to and methods for language design ? Static semantics (e.g. design rules, well-formedness constraints) ? Techniques for specifying behavioral / executable semantics ? Generative approaches (incl. code synthesis, compilation) ? Meta-languages, meta-tools, language workbenches ? Software Language Validation ? Verification and formal methods for languages ? Testing techniques for languages ? Simulation techniques for languages ? Software Language Integration and Composition ? Coordination of heterogeneous languages and tools ? Mappings between languages (incl. transformation languages) ? Traceability between languages ? Deployment of languages to different platforms ? Software Language Maintenance ? Software language reuse ? Language evolution ? Language families and variability, language and software product lines ? Domain-specific approaches for any aspects of SLE (design, implementation, validation, maintenance) ? Empirical evaluation and experience reports of language engineering tools ? User studies evaluating usability ? Performance benchmarks ? Industrial applications ? Synergies between Language Engineering and emerging/promising research areas ? AI and ML language engineering (e.g., ML compiler testing, code classification) ? Quantum language engineering (e.g., language design for quantum machines) ? Language engineering for physical systems (e.g., CPS, IoT, digital twins) ? Socio-technical systems and language engineering (e.g., language evolution to adapt to social requirements) Manuscript submission information: Proposed Dates and Outcomes ?

Do not hesitate to forward this announce to anybody possibly interested == ProofInUse in short == The ProofInUse consortium is a laboratory for research and development in the domain of high-assurance software. It is joint between several academic and industrial partners. The general objective of ProofInUse is to provide software verification tools, based on mathematical proof, to industry users. The objective of ProofInUse is to significantly increase the capabilities and performances of verification environments proposed or internally used by the partners. Beyond a common interest in formal verification techniques, the members of ProofInUse share a common interest in the generic environment Why3 for deductive program verification, developed in the Toccata research group. In particular, ProofInUse aims at integration of verification techniques at the state-of-the-art of academic research, via the Why3 environment.

We expect some experience in the field of formal methods of software engineering in a general sense. The typical candidate would be someone who recently defended a master's thesis or a PhD in a related domain. The research part of the job is significant, the work being expected to lead to academic publications, as exemplified by the publications of the former engineers of ProofInUse (see https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://proofinuse.gitlabpages.inria.fr/dissemination.html__;!!IBzWLUs!QMc_4rlyHFEmCJYwwlsDYVlfPVhAWsLtYoIcgA1ePgCHf123jkSgdK47WqFS7Upo507nHGvntYfHI5duZG3oC5SGvnqM3NXf79KD5qw$ ). The development activities include a participation to the development of Why3, for which we are interested in candidates with experience in OCaml programming, or similar functional programming languages, and in the practice of shared development using git.

PAPER SUBMISSION THE PROGRAM COMMITTEE cordially invites all researchers, European and non-European, to submit their papers in all areas related to the above for presentation at the conference and inclusion in the proceedings of CiE 2023 at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cie2023__;!!IBzWLUs!R01DC2AJOZJX_4T87zmhaLKuQSyK3FU7iJlrvY6krW4KeThiWzYOD22Y1T8J1I8H_AVPjBpF1H0R2eVH6ejMBSAL0A$ CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS Papers submitted to the conference proceedings should represent original work, not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference with formal proceedings. The Program Committee will rigorously review and select submitted papers. Accepted papers will be published as a proceedings volume in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series from Springer-Verlag. Papers to be considered in the conferences proceedings must be submitted in PDF format, using the LNCS style (available at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!R01DC2AJOZJX_4T87zmhaLKuQSyK3FU7iJlrvY6krW4KeThiWzYOD22Y1T8J1I8H_AVPjBpF1H0R2eVH6ehCj8sNEA$ ) and must have a maximum of 12 pages, including references but excluding a possible appendix in which one can include proofs and other additional material. Papers building bridges between different parts of the research community are particularly welcome. INFORMAL PRESENTATIONS Continuing the tradition of past CiE conferences, we invite researchers to present informal presentations of their recent work. A proposal for an informal presentation must be submitted via EasyChair (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cie2023__;!!IBzWLUs!R01DC2AJOZJX_4T87zmhaLKuQSyK3FU7iJlrvY6krW4KeThiWzYOD22Y1T8J1I8H_AVPjBpF1H0R2eVH6ejMBSAL0A$ ), using the LNCS style file (available at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!R01DC2AJOZJX_4T87zmhaLKuQSyK3FU7iJlrvY6krW4KeThiWzYOD22Y1T8J1I8H_AVPjBpF1H0R2eVH6ehCj8sNEA$ ), and be 1 page long; a brief description of the results suffices and an abstract is not required.

New models, architectures, languages and verification techniques are necessary to cope with the complexity induced by the demands of today?s software development. Coordination languages have emerged as a successful approach, in that they provide abstractions that cleanly separate behaviour from communication, therefore increasing modularity, simplifying reasoning, and ultimately enhancing software development. Building on the success of the previous editions, this conference provides a well-established forum for the growing community of researchers interested in models, languages, architectures, and implementation techniques for coordination. Topics: ------- * Theoretical models and foundations for coordination: component composition, concurrency, mobility, dynamic, spatial and probabilistic aspects of coordination, logic, emergent behaviour, types, semantics; * Specification, refinement, and analysis of architectures: patterns and styles, verification of functional and non-functional properties, including performance and security aspects; * Dynamic software architectures: distributed mobile code, configuration, reconfiguration, networked computing, parallel, high-performance and cloud computing * Nature- and bio-inspired approaches to coordination; * Coordination of multi-agent and collective systems: models, languages, infrastructures, self-adaptation, self-organisation, distributed solving, collective intelligence and emerging behaviour; * Coordination and modern distributed computing: web services, peer-to-peer networks, grid computing, context-awareness, ubiquitous computing, mobile computing; * Coordination platforms for infrastructures of emergent new application domains like IoT, fog- and edge-computing; * Cybersecurity aspects of coordinated systems, coordinated approaches to cybersecurity; * Programming methodologies, languages, middleware, tools, and environments for the development and verification of coordinated applications; * Tools, languages and methodologies for secure coordination; * Industrial relevance of coordination and software architectures: programming in the large, domain-specific software architectures and coordination models, case studies; * Interdisciplinary aspects of coordination; * Industry-led efforts in coordination and case studies. Invited Speaker ------------------------ Frank Pfenning, Carnegie Mellon University, USA We invite you to submit: ----------------------- * Regular long papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing thorough and complete research results and experience reports. * Regular short papers (4-6 pages, not counting references): describing research in progress or opinion papers on the past of COORDINATION research, on the current state of the art, or on prospects for the years to come. * Short tool papers (4-6 pages, not counting references): describing technological artefacts in the scope of the research topics of COORDINATION. Short tool papers are not required to provide an account of theoretical foundations and are not required to present the design and implementation concerns. They should provide a clear account of the tool?s functionality and discuss the tool?s practical capabilities. The paper must contain a link to a publicly downloadable MPEG-4 demo video of at most 10 minutes length. * Long tool papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing technological artefacts in the scope of the research topics of COORDINATION. A full-length tool paper should provide a brief account of the theoretical foundations (including relevant citations), present the design and implementation concerns (possibly including software architecture and core data structures), provide a clear account of the tool?s functionality, discuss the tool?s practical capabilities (possibly with reference to the type and size of problems it can handle), and (when applicable) report on realistic case studies (possibly providing a rigorous experimental evaluation). Papers that present extensions to existing tools should clearly describe the improvements or extensions with respect to previously published versions of the tool (possibly providing data on enhancements in terms of resources and capabilities). The paper must contain a link to a publicly downloadable MPEG-4 demo video of at most 10 minutes length. * Survey papers (16-25 pages, not counting references): describing important results and success stories that originated in the context of COORDINATION.

Applications (including CV, short letter of motivation, three references, preferred location) should be submitted to either - Georg Moser (georg.moser at uibk.ac.at) or - Florian Zuleger (florian.zuleger at tuwien.ac.at) no later than *March 12, 2023*. Informal inquiries may be sent to either Florian or Georg. The city of Innsbruck is superbly located in the beautiful surroundings of the Tyrolean Alps. The combination of urban life in this historic town and the Alpine environment provides a high quality of living. On the other hand, Vienna has just last year reclaimed the title of the world?s most liveable city; a title it frequently held in the last years.

The award is for an outstanding contribution represented by a paper or by a small group of papers published within the past 25 years. This time span allows the lasting impact and depth of the contribution to have been established. The award can be given to an individual, or to a group of individuals who have collaborated on the research. For the rules governing this award, see https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://siglog.org/alonzo-church-award/__;!!IBzWLUs!UTDYzzZpvO-QNNbOqzFx9FEljeK1dGzILiERFxgF-eND60uLoz2qOJPnTXH8pg3tIMsastuai_PwJxVzCrr5A6BFyzIzhlHb$ , https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.eatcs.org/index.php/church-award/__;!!IBzWLUs!UTDYzzZpvO-QNNbOqzFx9FEljeK1dGzILiERFxgF-eND60uLoz2qOJPnTXH8pg3tIMsastuai_PwJxVzCrr5A6BFy_D9y9Bc$ , and https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.eacsl.org/alonzo-church-award/__;!!IBzWLUs!UTDYzzZpvO-QNNbOqzFx9FEljeK1dGzILiERFxgF-eND60uLoz2qOJPnTXH8pg3tIMsastuai_PwJxVzCrr5A6BFy49nxLxM$ . The 2022 Alonzo Church Award was given to Dexter Kozen for his ground- breaking work on the theory and applications of Kleene Algebra with Tests. Lists containing this and all previous winners can be found through the links above. ELIGIBILITY AND NOMINATIONS The contribution must have appeared in a paper or papers published within the past 25 years. Thus, for the 2023 award, the cut-off date is January 1, 1998. When a paper has appeared in a conference and then in a journal, the date of the journal publication will determine the cut-off date. In addition, the contribution must not yet have received recognition via a major award, such as the Turing Award, the Kanellakis Award, or the Goedel Prize. (The nominee(s) may have received such awards for other contributions.) While the contribution can consist of conference or journal papers, journal papers will be given a preference. Nominations for the 2023 award are now being solicited. The nominating letter must summarise the contribution and make the case that it is fundamental and outstanding. The nominating letter can have multiple co-signers. Self-nominations are excluded. Nominations must include: a proposed citation (up to 25 words); a succinct (100-250 words) description of the contribution; and a detailed statement (not exceeding four pages) to justify the nomination. Nominations may also be accompanied by supporting letters and other evidence of worthiness. Nominations for the 2023 award are automatically considered for all future editions of the award, until they receive the award or the nominated papers are no longer eligible. Nominations should be submitted to dezani at di.unito.it and to mariangiola.dezani at gmail.com by February 15, 2023. PRESENTATION OF THE AWARD The 2023 award will be presented at the 50th EATCS International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming, which is scheduled to take place in Paderborn - Germany on July 10-14, 2023. The award will be accompanied by an invited lecture by the award winner, or by one of the award winners. The awardee(s) will receive a certificate and a cash prize of USD 2,000. If there are multiple awardees, this amount will be shared. AWARD COMMITTEE The 2023 Alonzo Church Award Committee consists of the following five members: Thomas Colcombet, Mariangiola Dezani (chair), Marcelo Fiore, Radha Jagadeesan, and Igor Walukiewicz. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Mariangiola Dezani-Ciancaglini Dipartimento di Informatica Universita' di Torino c.Svizzera 185, 10149 Torino (Italy) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Organised by Brendan Fong and Brandon Shapiro (Topos Institute), Fabio Zanasi (University College London) An additional special session on proof assistants (joint with MFPS) will be organised by Assia Mahboubi, Inria Scope ----- Algebraic and coalgebraic methods and tools are a mainstay of computer science. From data types to development techniques and specification formalisms, both theoreticians and practitioners have benefited from the large body of research proposed and implemented since the pioneering works of the 1960s. CALCO aims to bring together researchers with interests in both foundational and applicative uses of algebra and coalgebra in computer science, traditional as well as emerging ones. CALCO is a high-level, bi-annual conference formed by joining the forces and reputations of CMCS (the International Workshop on Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science) and WADT (the Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques). Previous CALCO editions took place in Salzburg (Austria, 2021), London (UK, 2019), Ljubljana (Slovenia,2017), Nijmegen (the Netherlands, 2015), Warsaw (Poland, 2013), Winchester (UK, 2011), Udine (Italy, 2009), Bergen (Norway, 2007), Swansea (Wales, 2005). The 10th edition will be held in Bloomington, Indiana, co-located with MFPS XXXIX. It is planned as a physical, in-person event, with support for remote presence, both for speakers and for other participants who are unable or unwilling to travel. Submission Categories --------------------- CALCO invites papers relating to all aspects of algebraic and coalgebraic theory and applications, and distinguishes between four categories of submissions. 1. Regular papers that report * results on theoretical foundations * novel methods and techniques for software development * experiences with technology transfer to industry. 2. (Co)Algebraic Pearls papers that * present possibly known material in a novel and enlightening way. 3. Early ideas abstracts that lead to * presentations of work in progress * proposals for original venues of research. 4. Tool presentation papers that * report on the features and uses of algebraic/coalgebraic tools. Topics of Interests ------------------- All topics relating to algebraic and coalgebraic theory and applications are of interest for CALCO, and among them * Models and logics - Automata and languages - Graph transformations and term rewriting - Modal logics - Proof systems - Relational systems * Algebraic and coalgebraic semantics - Abstract data types - Re-engineering techniques (program transformations) - Semantics of conceptual modelling methods and techniques - Semantics of programming languages * Methodologies in software and systems engineering - Development processes - Method integration - Usage guidelines * Specialised models and calculi - Hybrid, probabilistic, and timed systems - Concurrent, distributed, mobile, cyber-physical, and context-aware computational paradigms - Systems theory and computational models (chemical, biological, etc.) * System specification and verification - Formal testing and quality assurance - Generative programming and model-driven development - Integration of formal specification techniques - Model-driven development - Specification languages, methods, and environments * Tools supporting algebraic and coalgebraic methods for - Advances in automated verification - Model checking - Theorem proving - Testing * String diagrams and network theory - Theory of PROPs and operads - Rewriting problems and higher-dimensional approaches - Automated reasoning with string diagrams - Applications of string diagrams * Quantum computing - Categorical semantics for quantum computing - Quantum calculi and programming languages - Foundational structures for quantum computing - Applications of quantum algebra Submissions Guidelines ---------------------- All submissions will be handled via EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=calco2023__;!!IBzWLUs!S0MNBlgCmlB9PTOFoLyhoRNcgEKuwXr9NztcV_-qdl4v8OCyTJ-NbdYmtmX3o4JSkLKiwg8Pyflwjh7HSNqPf8SNzVEgV4Qy6QX6AJE$ The format for all submissions is specified by LIPIcs.

Submissions that are clearly too long may be rejected immediately. Regular papers -------------- Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers in English presenting original research. Submitted papers must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Regular papers should be maximum 15 pages long, excluding references. Proofs omitted due to space limitations may be included in a clearly marked appendix. Proceedings will be published in the Dagstuhl LIPIcs Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics series. A special issue of the open access journal Logical Methods in Computer Science (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.lmcs-online.org__;!!IBzWLUs!S0MNBlgCmlB9PTOFoLyhoRNcgEKuwXr9NztcV_-qdl4v8OCyTJ-NbdYmtmX3o4JSkLKiwg8Pyflwjh7HSNqPf8SNzVEgV4QyVKZMvpw$ ), containing extended versions of selected papers, is planned. (Co)algebraic pearls -------------------- This is a recent submission category. Explaining a known idea in a new way may make as strong a contribution as inventing a new idea. We encourage the submission of pearls: elegant essays that illustrate an idea in a beautiful or didactically clever way, perhaps by developing an application. Pearls are typically short and concise and so should not be longer than regular papers in the format specified by LIPIcs. Authors who feel they need a bit more space should consult with the PC co-chairs. The accepted papers will be included in the final proceedings of the conference. Early ideas abstracts --------------------- Submissions should not exceed 2 pages in the format specified by LIPIcs. The volume of selected abstracts will be made available on arXiv and on the CALCO pages. Authors will retain copyright, and are also encouraged to disseminate the results by subsequent publication elsewhere. Tool papers ----------- Submissions should not exceed 5 pages in the format specified by LIPIcs. The accepted tool papers will be included in the final proceedings of the conference. The tools should be made available on the web at the time of submission for download and evaluation. Best Paper and Best Presentation Awards --------------------------------------- This edition of CALCO will feature two awards: a Best Paper Award whose recipients will be selected by the PC before the conference and a Best Presentation Award, elected by the participants.

This conference follows previous events at Strathclyde (UK), Cambridge (UK), Cambridge (MA), Oxford (UK) and Leiden (NL). Applied category theory is important to a growing community of researchers who study computer science, logic, engineering, physics, biology, chemistry, social science, systems, linguistics and other subjects using category-theoretic tools. The background and experience of our members is as varied as the systems being studied. The goal of the Applied Category Theory conference series is to bring researchers together, strengthen the applied category theory community, disseminate the latest results, and facilitate further development of the field. SUBMISSIONS We accept submissions in English of original research papers, talks about work accepted/submitted/published elsewhere, and demonstrations of relevant software. Accepted original research papers will be published in a proceedings volume. The conference will include an industry showcase event and community meeting. We particularly encourage people from underrepresented groups to submit their work and the organizers are committed to non-discrimination, equity, and inclusion. Original research papers intended for conference proceedings should present original, high-quality work in the style of a computer science conference paper (up to 12 pages, not counting the bibliography; more detailed parts of proofs may be included in an appendix for the convenience of the reviewers). Please use the EPTCS style files available at . Such submissions should not be an abridged version of an existing journal article although pre-submission arXiv preprints are permitted. These submissions will be adjudicated for both a talk and publication in the conference proceedings.

As our dependency on such software systems grow, also our responsibility as researchers grows to provide both trustworthy and usable solutions. The main topics of interest include: * Language concepts for concurrency and distribution, supported by rigorous semantics, well-supported pragmatics, and/or expressive illustrative use-cases. * Analyses techniques, methodologies, and/or algorithms, using testing and/or verification, to validate (aspects of) the soundness of various types of concurrent and distributed systems, including communication and network protocols, service-oriented systems, adaptive distributed systems, cyber-physical systems and sensor networks. * Principles for qualitative and quantitative security analysis of distributed systems. * Applications of formal methods and techniques for studying the quality, reliability, availability, and safety of concrete distributed systems. We are specially interested in "real-life" case studies and industrial applications involving real distributed systems. * Emerging challenges and hot topics in distributed systems (broadly construed), such as software-defined networks, distributed ledgers, smart contracts, and blockchain technologies, etc. Categories of papers -------------------- All papers should be submitted in LNCS format. We solicit papers in the following categories: * Regular papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing thorough and complete research results and experience reports. Regular papers may be combined with an artefact submission. Companion artefacts to regular submissions will be reviewed by the Artefact Evaluation Committee, but the acceptance of the paper is decoupled from the acceptance of the artefact (does not depend on it). The acceptance of the artefact, however, is conditional to the acceptance of the paper. * Tool papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing technological artefacts in the scope of the research topics of FORTE. The paper should present the underlying theory of the tool, a clear account of the tool?s functionality and limitations, and include case studies (with rigorous experimental evaluation). In addition, the tool artefact must be submitted separately for evaluation. Acceptance of the tool artefact is mandatory for tool papers to be accepted. The artefact will be evaluated by a dedicated committee. The paper must contain a link to a publicly downloadable MPEG-4 demo video of at most 10 minutes, to be submitted until a week after the paper submission deadline. * Short papers (4-6 pages, not counting references): describing innovative and promising ideas, possibly in an early form, or demonstrating new tools (components), or presenting (i) calls to action, or (ii) substantiated reflections on current and/or future research perspectives related to FORTE, or a summary of a published journal paper clarifying why the presentation would enrich the program of FORTE. Partial Rebuttal ------------ Some papers that raised doubts the reviewers would like to clarify to consider acceptance, will have 48h to respond to concrete questions. The responses will be taken into account during the PC discussions. Important dates (AoE) --------------------- * Abstract submission: February 24, 2023 * Paper submission: March 4, 2023 (AoE) * Artefact and video submission: March 4, 2023 (AoE) * Rebuttal period: March 30 and 31 * Paper and artefact notification: April 7, 2023 * Camera-ready: April 30, 2023 Proceedings ----------- The conference proceedings, formed by accepted submissions from *any* category, will be published by Springer as an LNCS-IFIP volume.

Previous SYCO events have been held in Birmingham, Strathclyde, Oxford, Chapman, Leicester, Tallinn, and Como. We welcome submissions from researchers across computer science, mathematics, physics, philosophy, and beyond, with the aim of fostering friendly discussion, disseminating new ideas, and spreading knowledge between fields. Submission is encouraged for both mature research and work in progress, and by both established academics and junior researchers, including students. Submissions is easy, with no formatting or page restrictions. The meeting does not have proceedings, so work can be submitted even if it has been submitted or published elsewhere. You could submit work-in-progress, or a recently completed paper, or even a PhD or Masters thesis. While no list of topics could be exhaustive, SYCO welcomes submissions with a compositional focus related to any of the following areas, in particular from the perspective of category theory: - logical methods in computer science, including classical and quantum programming, type theory, concurrency, natural language processing and machine learning; - graphical calculi, including string diagrams, Petri nets and reaction networks; - languages and frameworks, including process algebras, proof nets, type theory and game semantics; - abstract algebra and pure category theory, including monoidal category theory, higher category theory, operads, polygraphs, and relationships to homotopy theory; - quantum algebra, including quantum computation and representation theory; - tools and techniques, including rewriting, formal proofs and proof assistants, and game theory; - industrial applications, including case studies and real-world problem descriptions. IMPORTANT DATES =============== All deadlines are 23:59 Anywhere on Earth. Submission deadline: Monday 6 March, 2023 Author notification: Sunday 20 March, 2023 Symposium dates: Thursday 20 and Friday 21 April 2023 SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ======================= Submissions are by OpenReview, via the SYCO 11 submission page: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://openreview.net/group?id=cl.cam.ac.uk*SYCO*2023*Symposium__;Ly8v!!IBzWLUs!Tm7nujeOJTP1Dfc2Ed5WGZRTDyyA4EkFYkPifWam4gMmOuQQjZ0617qp8BrPFZJU0jarvFJ2VVfPUxZjTf7mA0oCasKUbUSQ13EZe_wYgtJiupjVKu4$ Submission is easy, with no format requirements or page restrictions. The meeting does not have proceedings, so work can be submitted even if it has been submitted or published elsewhere. Think creatively: you could submit a recent paper, or notes on work in progress, or even a recent Masters or PhD thesis. In the event that more good-quality submissions are received than can be accommodated in the timetable, the programme committee may choose to *defer* some submissions to a future meeting, rather than reject them. Deferred submissions can be re-submitted to any future SYCO meeting, where they will not need peer review, and where they will be prioritised for inclusion in the programme. Meetings will be held sufficiently frequently to avoid a backlog of deferred papers. If you have a submission which was deferred from a previous SYCO meeting, it will not automatically be considered for SYCO 11; you still need to submit it again through OpenReview. When submitting, append the words "DEFERRED FROM SYCO X" to the title of your paper, replacing "X" with the appropriate meeting number. There is no need to attach any documents.

Univalent Foundations are foundations of mathematics based on the homotopical interpretation of type theory. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers interested in all aspects of Homotopy Type Theory/Univalent Foundations: from the study of syntax and semantics of type theory to practical formalization in proof assistants based on univalent type theory. The workshop will be held in person with support for remote participation.

Despite being founded only in 2012 and stabilized in 2016, after a three-year successful experimental period, the institute has already obtained wide recognition at both national and international levels. The PhD program at GSSI is organized in the scientific areas of Astroparticle Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics, Regional Sciences and Economic Geography. Every year, the institute offers PhD scholarships and postdoctoral grants as well as research internship opportunities, thus facilitating the attraction of prestigious scientists in the field of Computer Science. In 2022, GSSI participated for the first time in the Ministry of University and Research call of ANVUR (Italian National Agency for the Evaluation of Universities and Research Institutes - https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.anvur.it/en/agency/mission/__;!!IBzWLUs!UQUxK2UG8NB2MHyBUpyPgRPXrxEpPs5C-KoJ5kAQ1OeaniH--6fTCqpNlT1WxdpHiePhPUvG8zMEI7mb5FLOlF-kv2hdrNirH_oiFw$ ) to evaluate universities in Italy. In this first participation, the computer science area has been evaluated as the first computer science department in Italy. This recognition gave the computer science area the opportunity to participate in a further call for funding, and together with the mathematics area, was recognized as one of the "Departments of Excellence", obtaining more than 7 million Euros in additional funding. Besides its prestige, this recognition will bring additional permanent positions and significant funds (over one million Euros) for building autonomous systems, IoT, and algorithm-engineering laboratories. Moreover, the GSSI project was ranked first in the specific disciplinary sector (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.anvur.it/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/ALLEGATO-NOTA-ANVUR_esito-180.pdf__;!!IBzWLUs!UQUxK2UG8NB2MHyBUpyPgRPXrxEpPs5C-KoJ5kAQ1OeaniH--6fTCqpNlT1WxdpHiePhPUvG8zMEI7mb5FLOlF-kv2hdrNjAV7JSVg$ ) among the 11 departments of excellence in computer science and mathematics, with only three of them (including GSSI) concerning Computer Science.

Satisfiability Checking has recently started to tackle similar problems but with different algorithmic and technological solutions. The two communities share many central interests, but researchers from these two communities rarely interact. Also, the lack of common or compatible interfaces for tools is an obstacle to their fruitful combination. Bridges between the communities in the form of common platforms and road-maps are necessary to initiate an exchange, and to support and direct their interaction. The aim of this workshop is to provide an opportunity to discuss, share knowledge and experience across both communities. - KEYNOTE SPEAKER -- Haniel Barbosa (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Brazil) -- SUBMISSIONS AND PARTICIPATION -- The workshop series has emerged from an H2020 FETOPEN CSA project "SC-Square", which ran from 2016 to 2018. It has been continued aiming at building bridges between Satisfiability Checking and Symbolic Computation. It is open for submission and participation to everyone interested in the topics, whether or not they were members or associates of the original project. The topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Satisfiability Checking for Symbolic Computation * Symbolic Computation for Satisfiability Checking * Applications relying on both Symbolic Computation ? and Satisfiability Checking * Combination of Symbolic Computation and ? Satisfiability Checking tools * Quantifier elimination and decision procedures and their ? embedding into computer algebra software and logic provers, including ? but not limited to SMT solvers -- SUBMISSION GUIDELINES -- We welcome submissions in the following categories: * Full papers on research, case studies or tool development ? should present unpublished work not submitted elsewhere ? (with a limit of 16 pages, not counting references) * Extended abstracts on research, case studies or tool ? development should present unpublished (potentially ongoing) ? work not submitted elsewhere ? (2-4 pages, not counting references) * Presentation-only submissions on already published work, work ? to be published elsewhere, or work in progress on SC-Square ? related open problems or future challenges. Furthermore, ? people from other scientific disciplines and industry and ? business are warmly invited to attend and describe their ? problems, challenges, goals, and expectations for the ? SC-Square community. Please submit an abstract for approval by ? the PC (with a limit of 2 pages). * Posters All submissions must be in English. Full papers and extended abstracts must and use the new CEUR-ART format. All submissions should be entered to the EasyChair system before the submission deadline. Please declare the category of your submission by prefixing the title on the EasyChair form with "FULL", "EA", "PRESENTATION", or "POSTER", respectively. Submission implies a commitment that, in case of acceptance, at least one of the authors attends and presents at the workshop. -- PROCEEDINGS -- We plan to publish the proceedings of the workshop as a CEUR-WS proceedings covering full papers and extended abstracts. Authors may opt out of this, should they prefer to publish the material elsewhere. Furthermore, there will be post-proceedings in an issue of the Springer journal Mathematics in Computer Science dedicated to the workshop. Authors of all four categories are eligible for submission of a corresponding journal article. Journal versions of full papers require at least 30% new material compared to the version originally accepted. All journal submissions will be thoroughly peer-reviewed according to the standards of the journal. -- WORKSHOP CO-CHAIRS -- * Erika Abraham (RWTH Aachen University, Germany) * Thomas Sturm (CNRS, France & MPI Informatics, Germany) -- PROGRAM COMMITTEE -- * Anna Bigatti (University of Genoa, Italy) * Curtis Bright (University of Windsor, Canada) * Martin Bromberger (MPI Informatik Saarbruecken, Germany) * Christopher Brown (United States Naval Academy, USA) * James H.

New models, architectures, languages and verification techniques are necessary to cope with the complexity induced by the demands of today?s software development. Coordination languages have emerged as a successful approach, in that they provide abstractions that cleanly separate behaviour from communication, therefore increasing modularity, simplifying reasoning, and ultimately enhancing software development. Building on the success of the previous editions, this conference provides a well-established forum for the growing community of researchers interested in models, languages, architectures, and implementation techniques for coordination. Topics: ------- * Theoretical models and foundations for coordination: component composition, concurrency, mobility, dynamic, spatial and probabilistic aspects of coordination, logic, emergent behaviour, types, semantics; * Specification, refinement, and analysis of architectures: patterns and styles, verification of functional and non-functional properties, including performance and security aspects; * Dynamic software architectures: distributed mobile code, configuration, reconfiguration, networked computing, parallel, high-performance and cloud computing * Nature- and bio-inspired approaches to coordination; * Coordination of multi-agent and collective systems: models, languages, infrastructures, self-adaptation, self-organisation, distributed solving, collective intelligence and emerging behaviour; * Coordination and modern distributed computing: web services, peer-to-peer networks, grid computing, context-awareness, ubiquitous computing, mobile computing; * Coordination platforms for infrastructures of emergent new application domains like IoT, fog- and edge-computing; * Cybersecurity aspects of coordinated systems, coordinated approaches to cybersecurity; * Programming methodologies, languages, middleware, tools, and environments for the development and verification of coordinated applications; * Tools, languages and methodologies for secure coordination; * Industrial relevance of coordination and software architectures: programming in the large, domain-specific software architectures and coordination models, case studies; * Interdisciplinary aspects of coordination; * Industry-led efforts in coordination and case studies. Invited Speaker ------------------------ Frank Pfenning, Carnegie Mellon University, USA We invite you to submit: ----------------------- * Regular long papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing thorough and complete research results and experience reports. * Regular short papers (4-6 pages, not counting references): describing research in progress or opinion papers on the past of COORDINATION research, on the current state of the art, or on prospects for the years to come. * Short tool papers (4-6 pages, not counting references): describing technological artefacts in the scope of the research topics of COORDINATION. Short tool papers are not required to provide an account of theoretical foundations and are not required to present the design and implementation concerns. They should provide a clear account of the tool?s functionality and discuss the tool?s practical capabilities. The paper must contain a link to a publicly downloadable MPEG-4 demo video of at most 10 minutes length. * Long tool papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing technological artefacts in the scope of the research topics of COORDINATION. A full-length tool paper should provide a brief account of the theoretical foundations (including relevant citations), present the design and implementation concerns (possibly including software architecture and core data structures), provide a clear account of the tool?s functionality, discuss the tool?s practical capabilities (possibly with reference to the type and size of problems it can handle), and (when applicable) report on realistic case studies (possibly providing a rigorous experimental evaluation). Papers that present extensions to existing tools should clearly describe the improvements or extensions with respect to previously published versions of the tool (possibly providing data on enhancements in terms of resources and capabilities). The paper must contain a link to a publicly downloadable MPEG-4 demo video of at most 10 minutes length. * Survey papers (16-25 pages, not counting references): describing important results and success stories that originated in the context of COORDINATION. Important dates --------------- * Abstract submission: **EXTENDED** February 24, 2023 * Paper submission: **EXTENDED** March 4, 2023 * Paper notification: April 7, 2023 * Artefact submission: April 14, 2023 * Artefact notification: April 30, 2023 * Camera-ready: April 30, 2023 Dates are Anywhere on Earth (AoE).

Papers may target any stage of software development, including requirements, modeling, prototyping, design, implementation, generation, analysis, verification, testing, evaluation, maintenance, and reuse of software systems. Contributions may include the development of new tools, techniques, principles, and evaluations. ### Review Process PACMPL(OOPSLA) has two _rounds_ of reviewing. The final outcome of each round can be one of Accept, Revise, or Reject. *Accept*: Accepted papers will appear at the next PACMPL(OOPSLA). *Revise*: Papers in this category are invited to submit a revision to the _next round_ of submissions with a specific set of expectations to be met. When authors resubmit, they should clearly explain how the revisions address the comments of the reviewers. The revised paper will be re-evaluated. Resubmitted papers will retain the same reviewers throughout the process. *Reject*: Rejected papers will not be included in the 2023 volume of PACMPL(OOPSLA). Papers in this category are not guaranteed a review if resubmitted less than one year from the date of original submission. A paper will be judged to be a resubmission if it is substantially similar to the original submission. The judgment that a paper is a resubmission of the same work and whether, in this case, it will be reviewed or not is at the discretion of the Chair. Obviously, this same policy applies to papers that were rejected for inclusion in the 2022 volume of PACMPL(OOPSLA). Each _round_ of reviewing consists of two _phases_. The first phase evaluates the papers and results in an early notification of Reject, Revise, or Conditional Accept. During the first phase, authors will be able to read their reviews and respond to them. The second phase is restricted to conditionally accepted papers. Authors must make a set of mandatory revisions. The second phase assesses whether the required revisions have been addressed. The outcome can be Accept, Revise, or Reject. ### Submissions Submitted papers must be at most **23 pages** in 10 point font. There is no page limit on references. No appendices are allowed on the main paper, instead authors can upload supplementary material with no page or content restrictions, but reviewers may choose to ignore it. Submissions must adhere to the "ACM Small" template available from [the ACM](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions__;!!IBzWLUs!Sp1iGNEyAUMcjQBj576kTF67DQJ7SymmUnzpyOriYPmYVRIzlFPB_MeFT3oTWPrTGckxftqHRdUD9HPmCkM73BpEidLof0m4l8NN74U$ [2]). Papers are expected to use author-year citations. Author-year citations may be used as either a noun phrase, such as "The lambda calculus was originally conceived by Church [1932]", or a parenthetic phase, such as "The lambda calculus [Church 1932] was intended as a foundation for mathematics". PACMPL uses double-blind reviewing. Authors' identities are only revealed if a paper is accepted. Papers must * omit author names and institutions, * use the third person when referencing your work, * anonymize supplementary material. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission; see the FAQ on the OOPSLA 2023 website for details. When in doubt, contact the Review Committee Chairs. Papers must describe unpublished work that is not currently submitted for publication elsewhere as described by [SIGPLAN's Republication Policy](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication__;!!IBzWLUs!Sp1iGNEyAUMcjQBj576kTF67DQJ7SymmUnzpyOriYPmYVRIzlFPB_MeFT3oTWPrTGckxftqHRdUD9HPmCkM73BpEidLof0m4aDnE7S8$ [3]). Submitters should also be aware of [ACM's Policy and Procedures on Plagiarism](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism_policy__;!!IBzWLUs!Sp1iGNEyAUMcjQBj576kTF67DQJ7SymmUnzpyOriYPmYVRIzlFPB_MeFT3oTWPrTGckxftqHRdUD9HPmCkM73BpEidLof0m499AZ0_c$ [4]). Submissions are expected to comply with the [ACM Policies for Authorship](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/information-for-authors__;!!IBzWLUs!Sp1iGNEyAUMcjQBj576kTF67DQJ7SymmUnzpyOriYPmYVRIzlFPB_MeFT3oTWPrTGckxftqHRdUD9HPmCkM73BpEidLof0m4Zd95pFc$ [5]). ### Artifacts Authors should indicate with their initial submission if an artifact exists, describe its nature and limitations, and indicate if it will be submitted for evaluation. Accepted papers that fail to provide an artifact will be requested to explain the reason they cannot support replication. It is understood that some papers have no artifacts. ### Publication PACMPL is a Gold Open Access journal, all papers will be freely available to the public. Authors can voluntarily cover the article processing charge ($400), but payment is not required. The official publication date is the date when the journal is made available in the ACM Digital Library. The journal issue and associated papers may be published up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. ### Additional Information Consult FAQ in Call for Papers at: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2023.splashcon.org/track/splash-2023-oopsla__;!!IBzWLUs!Sp1iGNEyAUMcjQBj576kTF67DQJ7SymmUnzpyOriYPmYVRIzlFPB_MeFT3oTWPrTGckxftqHRdUD9HPmCkM73BpEidLof0m4IKZ8CnU$ [1] ### Review Committee PC Chair: Mira Mezini (TU Darmstadt) Derek Dreyer (MPI-SWS, DE)- Associate Chair Sophia Drosopolou (Facebook; Imperial College, UK)- Associate Chair Patrick Eugster (USI, Switzerland; Purdue U.)- Associate Chair Shriram Krishnamurthi (Brown University, USA)- Associate Chair Jonathan Aldrich (CMU, USA) Karim Ali (U.

ECOOP solicits innovative solutions to real problems as well as evaluations of existing solutions. Authors are asked to pick one of the following categories: - **Research.** The most traditional category for papers that advance the state of the art. - **Reproduction.** An empirical evaluation that reconstructs a published experiment in a different context in order to validate the results of that earlier work. - **Experience.** Applications of known PL techniques in practice as well as tools. Industry papers will be reviewed by practitioners. We welcome negative results that may provide inspiration for future research. - **Pearls/Brave New Ideas.** Articles that either explain a known idea in an elegant way or unconventional papers introducing ideas that may take some time to substantiate. These papers may be short. ======= Submissions ======= Submission must not have been published, or have major overlap with previous work. In case of doubt, contact the chairs. Proceedings are published in open access by Dagstuhl LIPIcs in the Dagstuhl LIPIcs LaTeX-style template. To reduce friction when resubmitting, ACM's PACMPL and TOPLAS formatted papers can be submitted as such (with the understanding that if accepted, they will be reformatted). ECOOP uses double-anonymous reviewing. Authors' identities are only revealed if a paper is accepted. Papers must omit author names and institutions, and use the third person when referencing the authors' own work. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission; see the FAQ. When in doubt, contact the chairs. There is no page limit on submissions, but authors must understand that reviewers have a fixed time budget for each paper, so the length of the feedback is likely to be unaffected by length. Brevity is a virtue. Authors also have to consider that the camera-ready version must be 25 pages in LIPIcs format (not including references). Authors will be given a three-day period to read and respond to the reviews of their papers before the program committee meeting. Responses have no length limit. ==== Artifact Evaluation and Intent ==== To support replication of experiments, authors of research papers may submit artifacts to the Artifact Evaluation Committee. They will be asked whether they intend to submit an artifact at submission time. It is understood that some paper do not have artifacts. AEC members serve on the extended review committee. ============ Important Dates ============ ECOOP will continue to have two deadlines for submissions. Papers submitted in each round can be (a) accepted, (b) rejected, or (c) asked for revisions. Rejected papers cannot submit to the immediate next round, while revisions can be submitted at any later round. Papers retain their reviewers during revision. - Submission R2: March 1, 2023 - Artifacts R2: March 10, 2023 - Response R2: April 17, 2023 - Notification R2: April 28, 2023 ==== Journal First and Journal After === We have Journal First / After arrangements with ACM's Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems (TOPLAS), Elsevier's Science of Computer Programming (SCP) and AITO's Journal of Object Technology (JOT). Only new research papers are eligible to be Journal First (JF). JF papers will have an extended abstract in the ECOOP proceedings. The deadline is that same as Round 1 of submissions and the notification is aligned with Round 2 notification. TOPLAS JF papers should be submitted according to this announcement. SCP JF papers should follow this call for papers. JF papers are presented at the conference and eligible for awards. Journal After (JA) papers are papers for which the authors request to be considered for post conference journal publication. Once accepted by the ECOOP PC, these papers will be forwarded to the journal editors. Reviews and reviewers will be forwarded and used at the editor's discretion. JA papers will have an extended abstract (up to 12 pages) in the conference proceedings.

Students, researchers and people from the industry or the free software community are all welcome. The artifact evaluation process aims to improve the quality and reproducibility of research artifacts for ICFP papers. In case you want to nominate someone else (students, colleagues, etc.), please send them the nomination form. Nomination form: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.gle/RDomoHLv39RnjBUC6__;!!IBzWLUs!XpuLHReVYfBUQtLRVk5My6pqMRtB5XDwyYMnWIfsd1l1hKEsNRGJ1FfZLQTDF087ws0gsAMWkPQFzhpdNB_lZwzrs2-a0X6wZo795Bbi$ For more information, see the AEC webpage: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://icfp23.sigplan.org/track/icfp-2023-artifact-evaluation__;!!IBzWLUs!XpuLHReVYfBUQtLRVk5My6pqMRtB5XDwyYMnWIfsd1l1hKEsNRGJ1FfZLQTDF087ws0gsAMWkPQFzhpdNB_lZwzrs2-a0X6wZjvNx6AB$ The primary responsibility of committee members is to review the artifacts submitted corresponding to the already conditionally accepted papers in the main research track. In particular, run the associated tool or benchmark, check whether the results in the paper can be reproduced, and inspect the tool and the data. We expect evaluation of one artifact to take about a full day. Each committee member will receive 2 to 3 artifacts to review. All of the AEC work will be done remotely/online. The AEC will work in June, with the review work happening between June 5th and June 29th. Come join us in improving the quality of research in our field!

If there is a topic that you feel passionate about, and want to connect with others who have similar interests, submit a workshop proposal! We more than welcome new, and unconventional ideas for workshop formats. The following suggestions are a starting point: - Conference-style workshops allow participants to present their work to other domain experts. The smaller and more focused setting of a workshop allows for Q&A sessions and facilitates discussions. Presentations of work-in-progress are welcome. - Retreats act as a platform for experts to gather to tackle issues of a predetermined research agenda. Retreats are highly interactive and goal-oriented, allowing participants to address open challenges, explore new and uncharted ideas. - Agenda-setting workshops provide a forum for experts to determine a research agenda for a sub-field. - Other common activities at workshops include poster sessions, hands-on practical work, and focus groups. Workshops that include the presentation of research papers and that implement a SIGPLAN-approved selection process may archive proceedings in the ACM Digital Library. The workshop submission process details how to achieve this for those interested. Workshop applications will be considered until **March 15, 2022**, or until all slots are allocated. At least one of the workshop organizers must be present at the workshop **in person**. Similarly, for an accepted workshop paper, at least one author must be present at the workshop **in person** to present the paper. ## Workshop Proposal Submission Visit the submission link for the workshop proposal form and for more information on requirements and the evaluation process. To submit a workshop proposal, you will need to login to https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://conf.research.org__;!!IBzWLUs!RXD9Lf7dRLuyYu7o8S2s4uPiToS3UA3Ao3CGOtjDRynZ-eTqbhS-gM3mUYf4GA2oN0ibX0jqTJdoTdOyHqnYD0BANIn--iXkcCJ4ywU$ [1]. ## Important Deadlines - The deadline for proposal submission for all workshops is **March 15, 2023** - The deadline for paper/abstract submission for all workshops is **July 12, 2023** - The early registration deadline for SPLASH is **TBD**. Before the SPLASH early registration deadline, all workshops must a) send out accept/reject notifications, and b) publish a draft schedule on the SPLASH website. For workshops with proceedings published in the ACM Digital Library, **TBD** is the camera-ready deadline. Therefore, you should plan to notify authors several days before this date, so that they have time for revisions. **TBD** dates will be announced as soon as the SPLASH dates they are dependent on are decided. ## Questions Please [email the workshop co-chairs](mailto:workshops at splashcon.org) with any questions. ## Submission Link https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2023.splashcon.org/createProposal/d5d4ee14-2926-48f5-963a-f4c0bdd4a854__;!!IBzWLUs!RXD9Lf7dRLuyYu7o8S2s4uPiToS3UA3Ao3CGOtjDRynZ-eTqbhS-gM3mUYf4GA2oN0ibX0jqTJdoTdOyHqnYD0BANIn--iXkZuwzHVQ$ [2] ## Organizing Committee - Mehdi Bagherzadeh, Oakland University, USA - Amin Alipour, University of Houston, USA Links: ------ [1] https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://conf.research.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!RXD9Lf7dRLuyYu7o8S2s4uPiToS3UA3Ao3CGOtjDRynZ-eTqbhS-gM3mUYf4GA2oN0ibX0jqTJdoTdOyHqnYD0BANIn--iXkJcs8gwk$ [2] https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2023.splashcon.org/createProposal/d5d4ee14-2926-48f5-963a-f4c0bdd4a854__;!!IBzWLUs!RXD9Lf7dRLuyYu7o8S2s4uPiToS3UA3Ao3CGOtjDRynZ-eTqbhS-gM3mUYf4GA2oN0ibX0jqTJdoTdOyHqnYD0BANIn--iXkZuwzHVQ$ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Submissions will be evaluated according to their relevance, correctness, significance, originality, and clarity. Each submission should explain its contributions in both general and technical terms, clearly identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and comparing it with previous work. The technical content should be accessible to a broad audience. PACMPL issue ICFP 2023 also welcomes submissions in two separate categories ? Functional Pearls and Experience Reports ? that must be marked as such when submitted and that need not report original research results. Detailed guidelines on both categories are given at the end of this call. Submissions from underrepresented groups are encouraged. Authors who require financial support to attend the conference can apply for PAC funding (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/PAC/__;!!IBzWLUs!R72XkDRwVC0sTeip1mYCP8y0XwPkmf6uu1eL2ePKvoPuuyF0N9cZRfQ2Ce_403ESn0M3vQ4TqMUUaC5L1QJrQ0uYHzkUXRlLfj7zJlBBXJE$ ). The General Chair and PC Chair may not submit papers. PC members (other than the PC Chair) may submit papers. However, SIGPLAN guidelines dictate that they be held to a higher standard: a PC paper can be accepted if after the discussion it has at least one strongly-supportive review and no detractors. Each PC member may be listed as a coauthor on a maximum of three submissions. Please contact the Programme Chair if you have questions or are concerned about the appropriateness of a topic. ### Preparation of submissions *Deadline*: The deadline for submissions is **Wednesday, March 1, 2023**, Anywhere on Earth (). This deadline will be strictly enforced. *Formatting*: Submissions must be in PDF format, printable in black and white on US Letter sized paper and interpretable by common PDF tools. All submissions must adhere to the "ACM Small" template that is available (in both LaTeX and Word formats) from . There is a limit of **25 pages for a full paper or Functional Pearl** and **12 pages for an Experience Report**; in either case, the bibliography and an optional clearly marked appendix will not be counted against these limits. Submissions that exceed the page limits or, for other reasons, do not meet the requirements for formatting, will be summarily rejected. See also PACMPL's Information and Guidelines for Authors at . *Submission*: Submissions will be accepted at Improved versions of a paper may be submitted at any point before the submission deadline using the same web interface. *Author Response Period*: Authors will have a 72-hour period, starting at 12pm UTC on *Monday, May 1, 2023*, to read reviews and respond to them. *Appendix and Supplementary Material*: Authors have the option to include a clearly marked appendix and/or to attach supplementary material to a submission, on the understanding that reviewers may choose not to look at such an appendix or supplementary material. Supplementary material may be uploaded as a separate PDF document or tarball. Any supplementary material **must** be uploaded **at submission time**, not by providing a URL in the paper that points to an external repository. Authors are free to upload both anonymised and non-anonymised supplementary material. Anonymised supplementary material will be visible to reviewers immediately; non-anonymised supplementary material (which must be submitted separately) will be revealed to reviewers only after they have submitted their review of the paper and learned the identity of the author(s). *Authorship Policies*: All submissions are expected to comply with the ACM Policies for Authorship that are detailed at . *Republication Policies*: Each submission must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy, as explained on the web at . *ORCID*: ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier (an ORCID iD) that you own and control, and that distinguishes you from every other researcher: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://orcid.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!R72XkDRwVC0sTeip1mYCP8y0XwPkmf6uu1eL2ePKvoPuuyF0N9cZRfQ2Ce_403ESn0M3vQ4TqMUUaC5L1QJrQ0uYHzkUXRlLfj7z45fajMY$ . ACM now require an ORCID iD for every author of a paper, not just the corresponding author. So, the author who is filling out the permission form should make sure they have the ORCID iDs for all of their coauthors before filling out the form. Any authors who do not yet have an ORCID iD can go to https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://orcid.org/register__;!!IBzWLUs!R72XkDRwVC0sTeip1mYCP8y0XwPkmf6uu1eL2ePKvoPuuyF0N9cZRfQ2Ce_403ESn0M3vQ4TqMUUaC5L1QJrQ0uYHzkUXRlLfj7zv9cEwu8$ to have one assigned. ### Review Process This section outlines the two-stage process with lightweight double-blind reviewing that will be used to select papers for PACMPL issue ICFP 2023. **New this year**: ICFP 2023 will have an Associate Chair who will help the PC Chair monitor reviews, solicit external expert reviews for submissions when there is not enough expertise on the committee, and facilitate reviewer discussions. *PACMPL issue ICFP 2023 will employ a two-stage review process.* The first stage in the review process will assess submitted papers using the criteria stated above and will allow for feedback and input on initial reviews through the author response period mentioned previously. As a result of the review process, a set of papers will be conditionally accepted and all other papers will be rejected. Authors will be notified of these decisions on **May 18, 2023**. Authors of conditionally accepted papers will be provided with committee reviews along with a set of mandatory revisions. By June 15, 2023, the authors may provide a second submission. The second and final reviewing phase assesses whether the mandatory revisions have been adequately addressed by the authors and thereby determines the final accept/reject status of the paper. The intent and expectation is that the mandatory revisions can feasibly be addressed within three weeks. The second submission should clearly identify how the mandatory revisions were addressed. To that end, the second submission must be accompanied by a cover letter mapping each mandatory revision request to specific parts of the paper. The cover letter will facilitate a quick second review, allowing for confirmation of final acceptance within two weeks. Conversely, the absence of a cover letter will be grounds for the paper's rejection. *PACMPL issue ICFP 2023 will employ a lightweight double-blind reviewing process.* To facilitate this, submitted papers must adhere to two rules: 1. **author names and institutions must be omitted**, and 2. **references to authors' own related work should be in the third person** (e.g., not "We build on our previous work ..." but rather "We build on the work of ..."). The purpose of this process is to help the reviewers come to an initial judgement about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the paper more difficult (e.g., important background references should not be omitted or anonymised). In addition, authors should feel free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their papers as they normally would. For instance, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web or give talks on their research ideas. ### Information for Authors of Accepted Papers * As a condition of acceptance, final versions of all papers must adhere to the ACM Small format. The page limit for the final versions of papers will be increased by two pages to help authors respond to reviewer comments and mandatory revisions: **27 pages plus bibliography for a regular paper or Functional Pearl, 14 pages plus bibliography for an Experience Report**. * Authors of accepted submissions will be required to agree to one of the three ACM licensing options, one of which is Creative Commons CC-BY publication; this is the option recommended by the PACMPL editorial board. A reasoned argument in favour of this option can be found in the article [Why CC-BY?](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://oaspa.org/why-cc-by/__;!!IBzWLUs!R72XkDRwVC0sTeip1mYCP8y0XwPkmf6uu1eL2ePKvoPuuyF0N9cZRfQ2Ce_403ESn0M3vQ4TqMUUaC5L1QJrQ0uYHzkUXRlLfj7zN3rKGis$ ) published by OASPA, the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association. The other options are copyright transfer to ACM or retaining copyright but granting ACM exclusive publication rights. * PACMPL is a Gold Open Access journal, and authors are encouraged to publish their work under a CC-BY license. Gold Open Access guarantees permanent free online access to the definitive version in the ACM Digital Library, and the recommended CC-BY option also allows anyone to copy and distribute the work with attribution. Gold Open Access has been made possible by generous funding through ACM SIGPLAN, which will cover all open access costs in the event authors cannot. Authors who can cover the costs may do so by paying an Article Processing Charge (APC). PACMPL, SIGPLAN, and ACM Headquarters are committed to exploring routes to making Gold Open Access publication both affordable and sustainable. * ACM Author-Izer is a unique service that enables ACM authors to generate and post links on either their home page or institutional repository for visitors to download the definitive version of their articles from the ACM Digital Library at no charge. Downloads through Author-Izer links are captured in official ACM statistics, improving the accuracy of usage and impact measurements. Consistently linking to the definitive version of an ACM article should reduce user confusion over article versioning. After an article has been published and assigned to the appropriate ACM Author Profile pages, authors should visit to learn how to create links for free downloads from the ACM DL. * The official publication date is the date the papers are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to *two weeks prior* to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. * Authors of each accepted submission are invited to attend and be available for the presentation of that paper at the conference. The schedule for presentations will be determined and shared with authors after the full program has been selected. ### Artifact Evaluation Authors of papers that are conditionally accepted in the first phase of the review process will be encouraged (but not required) to submit supporting materials for Artifact Evaluation. These items will then be reviewed by an Artifact Evaluation Committee, separate from the paper Review Committee, whose task is to assess how the artifacts support the work described in the associated paper. Papers that go through the Artifact Evaluation process successfully will receive a seal of approval printed on the papers themselves. Authors of accepted papers will be encouraged to make the supporting materials publicly available upon publication of the papers, for example, by including them as "source materials" in the ACM Digital Library. An additional seal will mark papers whose artifacts are made available, as outlined in the ACM guidelines for artifact badging. Participation in Artifact Evaluation is voluntary and will not influence the final decision regarding paper acceptance. ### Special categories of papers In addition to research papers, PACMPL issue ICFP solicits two kinds of papers that do not require original research contributions: Functional Pearls, which are full papers, and Experience Reports, which are limited to half the length of a full paper. Authors submitting such papers should consider the following guidelines. #### Functional Pearls A Functional Pearl is an elegant essay about something related to functional programming. Examples include, but are not limited to: * a new and thought-provoking way of looking at an old idea * an instructive example of program calculation or proof * a nifty presentation of an old or new data structure * an interesting application of functional programming techniques * a novel use or exposition of functional programming in the classroom While pearls often demonstrate an idea through the development of a short program, there is no requirement or expectation that they do so. Thus, they encompass the notions of theoretical and educational pearls. Functional Pearls are valued as highly and judged as rigorously as ordinary papers, but using somewhat different criteria. In particular, a pearl is not required to report original research, but, it should be concise, instructive, and entertaining. A pearl is likely to be rejected if its readers get bored, if the material gets too complicated, if too much-specialised knowledge is needed, or if the writing is inelegant. The key to writing a good pearl is polishing. A submission that is intended to be treated as a pearl must be marked as such on the submission web page and should contain the words "Functional Pearl" somewhere in its title or subtitle. These steps will alert reviewers to use the appropriate evaluation criteria. Pearls will be combined with ordinary papers, however, for the purpose of computing the conference's acceptance rate. #### Experience Reports The purpose of an Experience Report is to describe the experience of using functional programming in practice, whether in industrial application, tool development, programming education, or any other area. Possible topics for an Experience Report include, but are not limited to: * insights gained from real-world projects using functional programming * comparison of functional programming with conventional programming in the context of an industrial project or a university curriculum * project-management, business, or legal issues encountered when using functional programming in a real-world project * curricular issues encountered when using functional programming in education * real-world constraints that created special challenges for an implementation of a functional language or for functional programming in general An Experience Report is distinguished from a normal PACMPL issue ICFP paper by its title, by its length, and by the criteria used to evaluate it. * Both in the papers and in any citations, the title of each accepted Experience Report must end with the words "(Experience Report)" in parentheses. The acceptance rate for Experience Reports will be computed and reported separately from the rate for ordinary papers. * Experience Report submissions can be at most 12 pages long, excluding bibliography. * Each accepted Experience Report will be presented at the conference, but depending on the number of Experience Reports and regular papers accepted, authors of Experience Reports may be asked to give shorter talks. * Because the purpose of Experience Reports is to enable our community to understand the application of functional programming, an acceptable Experience Report need not add to the body of knowledge of the functional-programming community by presenting novel results or conclusions. It is sufficient if the Report describes an illuminating experience with functional programming, or provide evidence for a clear thesis about the use of functional programming. The experience or thesis must be relevant to ICFP, but it need not be novel. The review committee will accept or reject Experience Reports based on whether they judge the paper to illuminate some aspect of the use of functional programming. Anecdotal evidence will be acceptable provided it is well-argued and the author explains what efforts were made to gather as much evidence as possible. Typically, papers that show how functional programming was used are more convincing than papers that say only that functional programming was used. It can be especially effective to present comparisons of the situations before and after the experience described in the paper, but other kinds of evidence would also make sense, depending on context. Experience drawn from a single person's experience may be sufficient, but more weight will be given to evidence drawn from the experience of groups of people. An Experience Report should be short and to the point. For an industrial project, it should make a claim about how well functional programming worked and why; for a pedagogy paper, it might make a claim about the suitability of a particular teaching style or educational exercise. Either way, it should produce evidence to substantiate the claim. If functional programming worked in this case in the same ways it has worked for others, the paper need only summarise the results ? the main part of the paper should discuss how well it worked and in what context. Most readers will not want to know all the details of the experience and its implementation, but the paper should characterise it and its context well enough so that readers can judge to what degree this experience is relevant to their own circumstances. The paper should take care to highlight any unusual aspects; specifics about the experience are more valuable than generalities about functional programming. If the paper not only describes experience but also presents new technical results, or if the experience refutes cherished beliefs of the functional-programming community, it may be better to submit it as a full paper, which will be judged by the usual criteria of novelty, originality, and relevance. The Program Chair will be happy to advise on any concerns about which category to submit to. ### ICFP Organisers General Chair: Nikhil Swamy (Microsoft Research, USA) Programme Chair: Sam Lindley (The University of Edinburgh, Scotland) Publicity Chair: Ilya Sergey (National University of Singapore, Singapore) Accessibility Co-Chairs: Vadim Zaliva (University of Cambridge, UK) and Calvin Beck (University of Pennsylvania, USA) Artifact Evaluation Chair: Jannis Limpberg (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands) Diversity Chair: Daan Leijen (Microsoft Research, USA) Industrial Relations Co-Chairs: Atze Dijkstra (Standard Chartered Bank, England) and Mathieu Bosepflug (Tweag I/O, France) Programming Contest Co-Organisers: Alperen Keles (University of Maryland, USA) and Aymeric Fromherz (Inria, France) Student Research Competition Chair: Daniel Hillerstr?m (The University of Edinburgh, Scotland) Video Chair: Apoorv Ingle (Iowa, USA) Workshops Co-Chairs: Arther Azevedo de Amorim (Boston University, USA) and Yannick Forster (Inria, France) ### PACMPL Volume 7, Issue ICFP 2023 Associate Editor: Sam Lindley (The University of Edinburgh, Scotland) Review Committee: Aggelos Biboudis, Oracle, Switzerland Alan Jeffrey, Roblox, USA Amos Robinson, Unaffiliated, Australia Andreea Costea, National University of Singapore, Singapore Andrew Hirsch, University of Buffalo, USA Andy Gill, Cerebrus Systems, USA Armando Solar-Lezama, MIT, USA Arnaud Spiwack, Tweag, France Benjamin C.

Call for Papers==== * Deadline: May 10th, 2023 * Date of Notification: May 20th, 2023 * Conference: June 27th ? 30th June, 2023 The DEBS 2023 Doctoral Symposium welcomes submissions from doctoral students who are undertaking research relevant to the DEBS 2023 conference. Topics covered include, but are not limited to: Distributed and event-based computing within, e.g., software systems, distributed systems, distributed data processing, data management, dependability, knowledge management, networking, programming languages, security and software engineering; Domain-specific topics within event-based computing: e.g., real-time analytics, mobile computing, social networking, pervasive, green computing and ubiquitous computing, sensor networks, user interfaces, big data processing, spatio-temporal processing, cloud computing, edge computing, peer-to-peer computing, embedded systems, stream reasoning, and RDF stream processing; Enterprise-related topics: e.g., complex event detection, enterprise application integration, real-time enterprises and web services Relevant research topics within the Internet of Things. Submission Guidelines Doctoral symposium papers should describe the problem addressed as part of the PhD work, explain its importance, discuss the limitations of existing solutions and give some indication of steps taken towards a solution. There should be enough substance to stimulate discussion at the symposium, but the work does not need to be complete. We thus encourage submissions from students both at early and late stages of their doctoral work. Submissions should be written based on the following structure, which focuses on the key methodological components required for a sound research synthesis: Problem Statement: What is the core problem you are studying during your PhD? Why is it relevant? How valuable are the results if you find a solution to the problem (external validity)? Research approach/Methodology: What methodology are you following for investigating your research questions? How good is the method for obtaining findings (internal validity)? Examples of methods: (i) Data science, (ii) Macro-Meso-Micro Research Question, (iii) Action Research Research setting: What are your research questions? Which hypotheses are you going to investigate? (Noting that hypotheses must be falsifiable!) What assumptions are you making? State of the art / Related work: Who has worked on your problem (or a similar one) in the past? What are the main differences between existing research and yours? How and why is your research novel concerning the existing state of the art? The authors can decide whether to include a state-of-the-art section before the approach or a comparative related work section after their approach. Research approach: What is the proposed solution to the problem statement? How does it answer the research questions? Evaluation plan: How are you going to evaluate your research? Which datasets will you use? Are you using any established benchmarks? Have you reached any result so far? Conclusions and reflections: What is the current status of your research? What are the main challenges you are facing? Why do you think your research will be successful? Submissions must be no longer than 4 pages and must adhere to the two-column "sigconf" ACM conference proceeding style. Templates and examples in LaTeX and various versions of Microsoft Word are available for download from the ACM Master Article Template web pages at https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template__;!!IBzWLUs!RZ2dJmBeVgqdCTfyy9VD5BzLsFhnOiMrcY277qZCn2xPWjiyqUa79eqyL61CPTYOP-TOi9Jp4zm8ChYKYVCvymnu2vLkrkZpv-zxLqBd$ . Papers must be in PDF (Adobe?s Portable Document Format) format and must be submitted electronically. Submissions must be single-author, on the topic of the doctoral work. The name of the supervisor must be clearly marked (?supervised by ??) on the paper, under the author?s name. All accepted submissions must be presented in person at the symposium. Distinguished scientists will be present to give feedback and advice to the students. During the event, presentations from authors can involve media other than traditional PowerPoint-style slideshows. Please note that in-person attendance is requested for the presenters of Doctoral Symposium. Submission Submit your paper using HotCRP: debs23dw.hotcrp.com. If you have any questions, please contact the Doctoral Symposium Co-Chairs, Riccardo Tommasini (riccardo.tommasiniliris.cnrs.fr) and Senjuti Basu Roy (senjuti.basuroynjit.edu) or the General Chair Valerio Schiavoni (valerio.schiavoniunine.ch). A short summary of each accepted project will be included in the published conference proceedings, but students are free to submit their work elsewhere in parallel, also. An expert panel will judge the best submission and separately the best presentation by participating students.

More information is provided below. **Fall cycle** - Abstract registration for research track: November 18, 2022 - Submission deadline for research track: November 25, 2022 - Rebuttal phase: January 7-11, 2022 - Acceptance notification: January 20, 2023 - Camera ready deadline: March 3, 2023 **Spring cycle** - Abstract registration for research track: February 24, 2023 (extended) - Submission deadline for research track: March 3, 2023 (extended) - Rebuttal phase: April 13-17, 2023 - Acceptance notification: April 27, 2023 - Camera ready deadline: May 26, 2023 - Conference: June 27-30, 2023 **** Organizers **** - General chair: Valerio Schiavoni (University of Neuch?tel, Switzerland) - PC chairs: Bettina Kemme (McGill University, Canada) Etienne Rivi?re (UCLouvain, Belgium) The list of Program Committee members can be consulted on the conference webpage: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2023.debs.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!Syf_d4Cm-bQAtsmyXih4ZitaM6dmtTXc6CNblwyA2UOjw6CSPsRSDf3BmZ1IHEk2g6RJ7uyWJmB99Zb34D_BPy_5WTKsRoMl76TZQ-QZ$ **** Submissions options **** The DEBS 2023 research track welcomes papers in the following categories: - Regular and short papers, presenting original research results on the topics of DEBS as well as experimental papers that provide new insights into the behavior of existing algorithms and systems. Authors should state their submission type (regular/short) in the title. Notice that authors that submit a paper as regular might be offered the opportunity of having their work published as a short paper. Page limits: 12 pages for regular papers (including references) and 6 pages for short papers (including references). - Vision papers, outlining futuristic distributed and event-based systems. Submissions should describe novel early-stage projects with eventually high impact. Each submission should clearly state the success criteria of the futuristic system. Page limit: 6 pages (all-inclusive). Authors of selected, top-rated papers from DEBS 2023 may be invited to submit an extended version of their paper to a journal special issue. Check the conference website for updates on this matter. All submissions must be original, unpublished and cannot be under review for another publishing forum during the time it is under submission to DEBS. The conference adopts a double-blind review process for the research track, where neither authors nor reviewers know each other?s identities. This means that papers or any other material must not list or otherwise identify the authors. References to previous work should be done in the third person so as to not reveal the identities of the authors. Submissions that are not anonymous may be rejected without review. Submissions to the research track will be evaluated by the Research Program Committee. The authors of accepted papers will be given a choice between different copyright agreements, according to ACM policies. The options will include opportunities for open access as well as the traditional ACM copyright agreement. Submitted papers are required to adhere to the two-column "sigplan" ACM conference proceeding style, with a minimal font size of 10pt.

Authors of papers receiving a Reject decision for the Fall deadline are not allowed to resubmit to the Spring deadline for DEBS 2023. There are, however, no constraints for a resubmission to a future edition of DEBS. In specific cases, the program committee may decide to offer a one-shot revision decision for authors of papers submitted to the Fall deadline, that would be considered promising but lacking in presentation or clarity. In this case, authors will have the possibility to send an updated version to the Spring deadline for reevaluation. Papers must be submitted using the HotCRP system using one of the following links: - Fall cycle: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://debs2023-fall.hotcrp.com/__;!!IBzWLUs!Syf_d4Cm-bQAtsmyXih4ZitaM6dmtTXc6CNblwyA2UOjw6CSPsRSDf3BmZ1IHEk2g6RJ7uyWJmB99Zb34D_BPy_5WTKsRoMl7ytY7nQP$ - Spring cycle: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://debs2023-spring.hotcrp.com/__;!!IBzWLUs!Syf_d4Cm-bQAtsmyXih4ZitaM6dmtTXc6CNblwyA2UOjw6CSPsRSDf3BmZ1IHEk2g6RJ7uyWJmB99Zb34D_BPy_5WTKsRoMl72DuKDWe$ If you have any questions, please contact the PC chairs, Bettina Kemme and Etienne Rivi?re, at the following address: debs2023-chairs at uclouvain.be **** ACM policies **** By submitting your article to an ACM Publication, you are hereby acknowledging that you and your co-authors are subject to all ACM Publications Policies [1], including ACM's new Publications Policy on Research Involving Human Participants and Subjects [2].

The workshop welcomes contributions spanning the spectrum from theoretical models to practical implementations and empirical studies. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Formal semantics * Process algebras and calculi * Models and languages * Protocols * Logics and types * Expressiveness * Model transformations * Tools, implementations, and experiments * Specification and verification * Coinductive techniques * Tools and techniques for automation * Synthesis techniques Prospective authors are welcome to contact the chairs for advice on whether their proposed submission is in scope. === SELECTION PROCEDURE === Since its first edition in 2008, the distinguishing feature of ICE has been an innovative paper selection mechanism based on an interactive, friendly, and constructive discussion amongst authors and PC members in an online forum. During the review phase, each submission is published in a dedicated discussion forum. The discussion forum can be accessed by the authors of the submission and by all PC members not in conflict with the submission (the forum preserves anonymity). The forum is used by reviewers to ask questions, clarifications, and modifications from the authors, allowing them better to explain and to improve all aspects of their submission. The evaluation of the submission will take into account not only the reviews, but also the outcome of the discussion. As witnessed by the past editions of ICE, this procedure considerably improves the accuracy of the reviews, the fairness of the selection, the quality of camera-ready papers, and the discussion during the workshop. ICE adopts a light double-blind reviewing process, detailed below. === SUBMISSION GUIDELINES === Submissions must be made electronically in PDF format via OpenReview: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://openreview.net/group?id=DisCoTec.org*2023*Workshop*ICE__;Ly8v!!IBzWLUs!UGM1A3idM6wE248XEBiVGNuEkpdVyMkYizCdI1Ub5U_jU1uM5QC6KcdOjHyW896YivTN3P6mvzUF7JFSc5xmNz8XyQR_mOFU7jrlrUNCcT0$ We invite two types of submissions: * Research papers: original contributions that will be published in the workshop post-proceedings. Research papers must not be simultaneously submitted to other conferences or workshops with refereed proceedings. Research papers should be 3-16 pages (references not included). Short research papers are welcome; for example a 5 page short paper fits this category perfectly. The submitted PDF can use any LaTeX style (but the post-proceedings will use the EPTCS style). * Oral communications: will be presented at the workshop, but will not appear in the post-proceedings. This type of contribution includes e.g. previously published contributions, preliminary work, and position papers. There is no strict page limit for this kind of submission but papers of 1-5 pages would be appreciated. For example, a one page summary of previously published work is welcome in this category. Authors of research papers must omit their names and institutions from the title page, they should refer to their other work in the third person and omit acknowledgements that could reveal their identity or affiliation. The purpose is to avoid any bias based on authors? identity characteristics, such as gender, seniority, or nationality, in the review process. Our goal is to facilitate an unbiased approach to reviewing by supporting reviewers? access to works that do not carry obvious references to the authors? identities. As mentioned above, this is a lightweight double-blind process. Anonymization should not be a heavy burden for authors, and should not make papers weaker or more difficult to review. Advertising the paper on alternate forums (e.g., on a personal web-page, pre-print archive, email, talks, discussions with colleagues) is permitted, and authors will not be penalized by for such advertisement. Papers in the ?Oral communications? category need not be anonymized. For any questions concerning the double blind process, feel free to consult the ICEcreamers. We are keen to enhance the balanced, inclusive and diverse nature of the ICE community, and would particularly encourage female colleagues and members of other underrepresented groups to submit their work. === PUBLICATIONS === Accepted research papers and communications must be presented at the workshop by one of the authors. Accepted research papers will be published after the workshop in Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science. We plan to invite authors of selected papers and brief announcements to submit their work in a special issue in the Journal of Logical and Algebraic Methods in Programming (Elsevier). Such contributions will be peer-reviewed according to the standard journal policy, but they will be handled in a shorter time than regular submissions. A list of published and in preparation special issues of previous ICE editions is reported on the ICE website. === ICECREAMERS (PC co-chairs) === * Cl?ment Aubert (Augusta University, USA) - aubert at math.cnrs.fr * Cinzia Di Giusto (Universit?

This series of workshops aims to bring together researchers working in the two communities of Constraint/Logic Programming (e.g., ICLP and CP), Program Verification (e.g., CAV, TACAS, and VMCAI), and Automated Deduction (e.g., CADE, IJCAR), on the topic of Horn clause based analysis, verification, and synthesis. Horn clauses for verification and synthesis have been advocated by these communities in different times and from different perspectives and HCVS is organized to stimulate interaction and a fruitful exchange and integration of experiences. The workshop follows previous meetings: HCVS 2022 in Munich, Germany (ETAPS 2022), HCVS 2021, online (ETAPS 2021), HCVS 2020, online (ETAPS 2020), HCVS 2019 in Prague, Czech Republic (ETAPS 2019), HCVS 2018 in Oxford, UK (CAV, ICLP and IJCAR at FLoC 2018), HCVS 2017 in Gothenburg, Sweden (CADE 2017), HCVS 2016 in Eindhoven, The Netherlands (ETAPS 2016), HCVS 2015 in San Francisco, CA, USA (CAV 2015), and HCVS 2014 in Vienna, Austria (VSL). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the use of Horn clauses, constraints, and related formalisms in the following areas: - Analysis and verification of programs and systems of various kinds (e.g., imperative, object-oriented, functional, logic, higher-order, concurrent, transition systems, petri-nets, smart contracts) - Program synthesis - Program testing - Program transformation - Constraint solving - Type systems - Machine learning and automated reasoning - CHC encoding of analysis and verification problems - Resource analysis - Case studies and tools - Challenging problems We solicit regular papers describing theory and implementation of Horn-clause based analysis and tool descriptions. We also solicit extended abstracts describing work-in-progress, as well as presentations covering previously published results, extended abstracts of doctoral theses, and overviews of research projects that are of interest to the workshop. At least one author of each accepted paper will be required to attend the workshop to present the contribution. CHC Competition: HCVS 2023 will host the 6th competition on constraint Horn clauses (CHC-COMP https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://chc-comp.github.io/__;!!IBzWLUs!Q8Gbv9mIOlmII4R_otgR2m30hWOYeiRun8xfos7_cd4qixc-QEcAHfSWgCseZxfzZAosz4mUlhEltkEFrf2-muhi6xRVsnn3Q7-y8g$ ), which will compare state-of-the-art tools for CHC solving for performance and effectiveness on a set of publicly available benchmarks. A report on CHC-COMP will be part of the workshop's proceedings. The report also contains tool descriptions of the participating solvers.

The book combines the nanopass approach that we've used at Indiana University for some time with the incremental approach proposed by my classmate Abdulaziz Ghuloum. The result is an introductory compiler curriculum that (1) better reveals the connection between compiler techniques and the programming language features that motivate them, and (2) natural decomposes a semester-long project into 2 week increments in which the students build working compilers. =============================================================================== Essentials of Compilation: An Incremental Approach in Racket Jeremy G. Siek The MIT Press, February 2023 240 pages, ISBN: 9780262047760 https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262047760/essentials-of-compilation/__;!!IBzWLUs!RifxfYwfyn08USzrSQVmiAhOHQp7AzTVviomOx1bNnPymM2x3P1LzIRjDjlCBxBCS9XgsQQ6FCbEUZy8Eo4xfBZx10HtsRU$ =============================================================================== Description: A hands-on approach to understanding and building compilers. Compilers are notoriously difficult programs to teach and understand. Most books about compilers dedicate one chapter to each progressive stage, a structure that hides how language features motivate design choices. By contrast, this innovative textbook provides an incremental approach that allows students to write every single line of code themselves. Essentials of Compilation guides the reader in constructing their own compiler for a small but powerful programming language, adding complex language features as the book progresses. Jeremy Siek explains the essential concepts, algorithms, and data structures that underlie modern compilers and lays the groundwork for future study of advanced topics. Already in wide use by students and professionals alike, this rigorous but accessible book invites readers to learn by doing. * Deconstructs the challenge of compiler construction into bite-sized pieces * Enhances learning by connecting language features to compiler design choices * Develops understanding of how programs are mapped onto computer hardware * Learn-by-doing approach suitable for students and professionals * Proven in the classroom * Extensive ancillary resources include source code and solutions =============================================================================== Contents: Preface 1 Preliminaries 2 Integers and Variables 3 Register Allocation 4 Booleans and Conditionals 5 Loops and Dataflow Analysis 6 Tuples and Garbage Collection 7 Functions 8 Lexically Scoped Functions 9 Dynamic Typing 10 Gradual Typing 11 Generics Appendix References Index =============================================================================== ???????????????????????????

The Women in Logic workshop (WiL) provides an opportunity to increase awareness of the valuable contributions made by women in the area of logic in computer science. Its main purpose is to promote the excellent research done by women, with the ultimate goal of increasing their visibility and representation in the community. Our aim is to: - provide a platform for female researchers to share their work and achievements; - increase the feelings of community and belonging, especially among junior faculty, post-docs and students through positive interactions with peers and more established faculty; - establish new connections and collaborations; - foster a welcoming culture of mutual support and growth within the logic research community. We believe these aspects will benefit women working in logic and computer science, particularly early-career researchers. Previous versions of Women in Logic (Reykjav?k 2017, Oxford 2018, Vancouver 2019, Paris 2020, Rome 2021, and Haifa 2022) were very successful in showcasing women's work and as catalysts for a recognition of the need for change in the community. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: automata theory, automated deduction, categorical models and logics, concurrency and distributed computation, constraint programming, constructive mathematics, database theory, decision procedures, description logics, domain theory, finite model theory, formal aspects of program analysis, formal methods, foundations of computability, games and logic, higher-order logic, lambda and combinatory calculi, linear logic, logic in artificial intelligence, logic programming, logical aspects of bioinformatics, logical aspects of computational complexity, logical aspects of quantum computation, logical frameworks, logics of programs, modal and temporal logics, model checking, probabilistic systems, process calculi, programming language semantics, proof theory, real-time systems, reasoning about security and privacy, rewriting, type systems and type theory, and verification.

While in recent years formal methods are increasingly being used in industry, university curricula are not adapting at the same pace. Some existing formal methods classes interest and challenge students, whereas others fail to ignite student motivation. It is thus important to develop, share, and discuss approaches to effectively teach formal methods to the next generations. * Last session of FMTea 2023: Formal Methods in the ACM Curriculum ACM is revising their recommendation for Computer Science Curricula; this activity happens every decade or so. The FME board and our community aim to influence the Formal Methods coverage in this Curriculum. This last session will be devoted to that subject. The agenda for the session (led by Ana Cavalcanti, FME Chair) is as follows: - 16:00-16:15 Introduction: Luigia Petre (Chair of FME Teaching Committee), Jim Woodcock (Editor in Chief of ACM FormalAspects of Computing Journal), Brijesh Dongol (Member of the ACM panel on Programming Languages) - 16:15-17:00 Short presentations by members of the community - 17:00-17:30 Definition of collection of white papers to be submitted in May,2023 to ACM and FACJ * FMTea 2023 Program Committee: Catherine Dubois (co-chair), ENSIIE, France Pierluigi San Pietro (co-chair), Politecnico di Milano, Italy Brijesh Dongol, University of Surrey, UK Luigia Petre, ?bo Akademi University, Finland Kristin Rozier, Iowa State University, US Graeme Smith, The University of Queensland, Australia Claudio Menghi, McMaster University, Canada Jo?o F.

Organised by Brendan Fong and Brandon Shapiro (Topos Institute), Fabio Zanasi (University College London) ?Machine-checked proofs in mathematics and meta-mathematics? (joint with MFPS) Organised by Assia Mahboubi, Inria Scope ----- Algebraic and coalgebraic methods and tools are a mainstay of computer science. From data types to development techniques and specification formalisms, both theoreticians and practitioners have benefited from the large body of research proposed and implemented since the pioneering works of the 1960s. CALCO aims to bring together researchers with interests in both foundational and applicative uses of algebra and coalgebra in computer science, traditional as well as emerging ones. CALCO is a high-level, bi-annual conference formed by joining the forces and reputations of CMCS (the International Workshop on Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science) and WADT (the Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques). Previous CALCO editions took place in Salzburg (Austria, 2021), London (UK, 2019), Ljubljana (Slovenia,2017), Nijmegen (the Netherlands, 2015), Warsaw (Poland, 2013), Winchester (UK, 2011), Udine (Italy, 2009), Bergen (Norway, 2007), Swansea (Wales, 2005). The 10th edition will be held in Bloomington, Indiana, co-located with MFPS XXXIX. It is planned as a physical, in-person event, with support for remote presence, both for speakers and for other participants who are unable or unwilling to travel. Submission Categories --------------------- CALCO invites papers relating to all aspects of algebraic and coalgebraic theory and applications, and distinguishes between four categories of submissions. 1. Regular papers that report * results on theoretical foundations * novel methods and techniques for software development * experiences with technology transfer to industry. 2. (Co)Algebraic Pearls papers that * present possibly known material in a novel and enlightening way. 3. Early ideas abstracts that lead to * presentations of work in progress * proposals for original venues of research. 4. Tool presentation papers that * report on the features and uses of algebraic/coalgebraic tools. Topics of Interests ------------------- All topics relating to algebraic and coalgebraic theory and applications are of interest for CALCO, and among them * Models and logics - Automata and languages - Graph transformations and term rewriting - Modal logics - Proof systems - Relational systems * Algebraic and coalgebraic semantics - Abstract data types - Re-engineering techniques (program transformations) - Semantics of conceptual modelling methods and techniques - Semantics of programming languages * Methodologies in software and systems engineering - Development processes - Method integration - Usage guidelines * Specialised models and calculi - Hybrid, probabilistic, and timed systems - Concurrent, distributed, mobile, cyber-physical, and context-aware computational paradigms - Systems theory and computational models (chemical, biological, etc.) * System specification and verification - Formal testing and quality assurance - Generative programming and model-driven development - Integration of formal specification techniques - Model-driven development - Specification languages, methods, and environments * Tools supporting algebraic and coalgebraic methods for - Advances in automated verification - Model checking - Theorem proving - Testing * String diagrams and network theory - Theory of PROPs and operads - Rewriting problems and higher-dimensional approaches - Automated reasoning with string diagrams - Applications of string diagrams * Quantum computing - Categorical semantics for quantum computing - Quantum calculi and programming languages - Foundational structures for quantum computing - Applications of quantum algebra Submissions Guidelines ---------------------- All submissions will be handled via EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=calco2023__;!!IBzWLUs!XzywrqIdqmWxMukZJqsRlzeM3XNyVwkDROeyqz4Wgl2Zltf0p_QyFdo1K6kc7lPVPBJGfQi_wLLaSgAlVEWYwMvednUqhWa6xDBp8s8$ The format for all submissions is specified by LIPIcs.

Submissions that are clearly too long may be rejected immediately. Regular papers -------------- Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers in English presenting original research. Submitted papers must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Regular papers should be maximum 15 pages long, excluding references. Proofs omitted due to space limitations may be included in a clearly marked appendix. Proceedings will be published in the Dagstuhl LIPIcs Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics series. A special issue of the open access journal Logical Methods in Computer Science (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.lmcs-online.org__;!!IBzWLUs!XzywrqIdqmWxMukZJqsRlzeM3XNyVwkDROeyqz4Wgl2Zltf0p_QyFdo1K6kc7lPVPBJGfQi_wLLaSgAlVEWYwMvednUqhWa6lBccqOU$ ), containing extended versions of selected papers, is planned. (Co)algebraic pearls -------------------- This is a recent submission category. Explaining a known idea in a new way may make as strong a contribution as inventing a new idea. We encourage the submission of pearls: elegant essays that illustrate an idea in a beautiful or didactically clever way, perhaps by developing an application. Pearls are typically short and concise and so should not be longer than regular papers in the format specified by LIPIcs. Authors who feel they need a bit more space should consult with the PC co-chairs. The accepted papers will be included in the final proceedings of the conference. Early ideas abstracts --------------------- Submissions should not exceed 2 pages in the format specified by LIPIcs. The volume of selected abstracts will be made available on arXiv and on the CALCO pages. Authors will retain copyright, and are also encouraged to disseminate the results by subsequent publication elsewhere. Tool papers ----------- Submissions should not exceed 5 pages in the format specified by LIPIcs. The accepted tool papers will be included in the final proceedings of the conference. The tools should be made available on the web at the time of submission for download and evaluation. Best Paper and Best Presentation Awards --------------------------------------- This edition of CALCO will feature two awards: a Best Paper Award whose recipients will be selected by the PC before the conference and a Best Presentation Award, elected by the participants.

This series of workshops aims to bring together researchers working in the two communities of Constraint/Logic Programming (e.g., ICLP and CP), Program Verification (e.g., CAV, TACAS, and VMCAI), and Automated Deduction (e.g., CADE, IJCAR), on the topic of Horn clause based analysis, verification, and synthesis. Horn clauses for verification and synthesis have been advocated by these communities in different times and from different perspectives and HCVS is organized to stimulate interaction and a fruitful exchange and integration of experiences. The workshop follows previous meetings: HCVS 2022 in Munich, Germany (ETAPS 2022), HCVS 2021, online (ETAPS 2021), HCVS 2020, online (ETAPS 2020), HCVS 2019 in Prague, Czech Republic (ETAPS 2019), HCVS 2018 in Oxford, UK (CAV, ICLP and IJCAR at FLoC 2018), HCVS 2017 in Gothenburg, Sweden (CADE 2017), HCVS 2016 in Eindhoven, The Netherlands (ETAPS 2016), HCVS 2015 in San Francisco, CA, USA (CAV 2015), and HCVS 2014 in Vienna, Austria (VSL). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the use of Horn clauses, constraints, and related formalisms in the following areas: - Analysis and verification of programs and systems of various kinds (e.g., imperative, object-oriented, functional, logic, higher-order, concurrent, transition systems, petri-nets, smart contracts) - Program synthesis - Program testing - Program transformation - Constraint solving - Type systems - Machine learning and automated reasoning - CHC encoding of analysis and verification problems - Resource analysis - Case studies and tools - Challenging problems We solicit regular papers describing theory and implementation of Horn-clause based analysis and tool descriptions. We also solicit extended abstracts describing work-in-progress, as well as presentations covering previously published results, extended abstracts of doctoral theses, and overviews of research projects that are of interest to the workshop. At least one author of each accepted paper will be required to attend the workshop to present the contribution. CHC Competition: HCVS 2023 will host the 6th competition on constraint Horn clauses (CHC-COMP https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://chc-comp.github.io/__;!!IBzWLUs!VJO3TWKE1HzzI4UuMS6Jt9SnNYCL8h9rxrgGIQCOblVlHh7IEum6wCS1YoBGjspK4nql2cZAUtkbjB3fJZMIbG9XBjp7Y_Efj55-gw$ ), which will compare state-of-the-art tools for CHC solving for performance and effectiveness on a set of publicly available benchmarks. A report on CHC-COMP will be part of the workshop's proceedings. The report also contains tool descriptions of the participating solvers.

A post-doctoral position will open shortly after, but interested candidates should feel encouraged to reach out to informally. In addition to accepting applications, I will be very happy to respond to informal inquiries about any aspect of the position, from technical ones to ones about life in the US "Garden City". Thanks for forwarding this offer or the link to potentially interested candidates. Expanded version (PhD position) ------------------------------------ The Concurrency In Reversible Computations () project is actively seeking a PhD student to fund starting Spring 2024. The funding for an admitted PhD student includes waiver of most tuition (only $25--$640 / semester is due by the student), a stipend ($29K / year), health benefits for the individual, (international) conference travel and possibly equipment (laptop). Funding is currently available for the first three years of the appointment through a new NSF funded project (). The main goals of this project are to improve existing process calculi formalizing reversible computations. In the past, reversible calculi have shed a new light on the correctness and adequation of CCS, ?-calculus and other formalisms for concurrent computation, but they still miss crucial features. Contextual equivalences, observable behaviors, set of operators and infinite behavior, to name a few, are still in the flux and in need of formal definitions that adequately models interesting systems. The original project encompasses many different dimensions, and will be tailored based on mutual interests, capacities, and recent progresses. The successful applicant will be advised by Cl?ment Aubert, and benefit from an international network of collaborators, as well as from a local, lively, group of PhD students (including but not limited to students working on related formal methods). In addition, they will have the opportunity to help mentoring undergraduate research assistants if they wish to do so. Interested students should meet the following: ?? - Be interested in the overall project as stated above. A complete project description or selected publications are available upon request. ?? - Have or are about to complete a Bachelor or (preferably) a Master of Science in Computer Science, Mathematics, or a related field (Computer Engineering, etc.). The successful applicant will additionally need to be admitted to the PhD program by the school's review committee and the Graduate School, but will receive help in completing their application, which should only be a formality. Students from all origins are welcome, and the University has support for issuing documents for student visa for the successful applicant and their family. If you are interested in being considered for? this opportunity please begin by contacting Cl?ment Aubert () with the following information: ?? - A brief introduction of yourself and if you have conducted any research already. ?? - CV/Resume. Timeline ?? Applications will be reviewed starting June, 1st, 2023 ?? Interviews will be conducted in June 2023 ?? Successful applicant will be selected in July 2023 ?? Formal application to the PhD program will be due by September, 1st 2023 Expanded version (Post-doctoral position) ---------------------------------------------- This NSF-funded project also includes funding for a post-doctoral researcher position. The duration of the position is initially one year, with guaranteed continuation by mutual agreement. The position will start at a mutually agreeable date, but probably not before July 2024. However, interested persons should feel encouraged to share their graduation plan or professional trajectory if they believe they can align particularly well with this project, in which case the starting date may be significantly shifted.

Previous SYCO events have been held in Birmingham, Strathclyde, Oxford, Chapman, Leicester, Tallinn, and Como. We welcome submissions from researchers across computer science, mathematics, physics, philosophy, and beyond, with the aim of fostering friendly discussion, disseminating new ideas, and spreading knowledge between fields. Submission is encouraged for both mature research and work in progress, and by both established academics and junior researchers, including students. Submissions is easy, with no formatting or page restrictions. The meeting does not have proceedings, so work can be submitted even if it has been submitted or published elsewhere. You could submit work-in-progress, or a recently completed paper, or even a PhD or Masters thesis. While no list of topics could be exhaustive, SYCO welcomes submissions with a compositional focus related to any of the following areas, in particular from the perspective of category theory: - logical methods in computer science, including classical and quantum programming, type theory, concurrency, natural language processing and machine learning; - graphical calculi, including string diagrams, Petri nets and reaction networks; - languages and frameworks, including process algebras, proof nets, type theory and game semantics; - abstract algebra and pure category theory, including monoidal category theory, higher category theory, operads, polygraphs, and relationships to homotopy theory; - quantum algebra, including quantum computation and representation theory; - tools and techniques, including rewriting, formal proofs and proof assistants, and game theory; - industrial applications, including case studies and real-world problem descriptions. IMPORTANT DATES =============== All deadlines are 23:59 Anywhere on Earth. Submission deadline: Monday 6 March, 2023 Author notification: Sunday 20 March, 2023 Symposium dates: Thursday 20 and Friday 21 April 2023 SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ======================= Submissions are by OpenReview, via the SYCO 11 submission page: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://openreview.net/group?id=cl.cam.ac.uk*SYCO*2023*Symposium__;Ly8v!!IBzWLUs!W3YM4R9JJCpBXz0rd_tvZxXT5SHhKyAz-ceX4VWZp2XqfQopdGmS-Pmyp2PxQXeWKumN7FpY8FLw7osdrRDHtYUN_7vs93LpbqHvU-1Tp-KZUms1-oI$ Submission is easy, with no format requirements or page restrictions. The meeting does not have proceedings, so work can be submitted even if it has been submitted or published elsewhere. Think creatively: you could submit a recent paper, or notes on work in progress, or even a recent Masters or PhD thesis. In the event that more good-quality submissions are received than can be accommodated in the timetable, the programme committee may choose to *defer* some submissions to a future meeting, rather than reject them. Deferred submissions can be re-submitted to any future SYCO meeting, where they will not need peer review, and where they will be prioritised for inclusion in the programme. Meetings will be held sufficiently frequently to avoid a backlog of deferred papers. If you have a submission which was deferred from a previous SYCO meeting, it will not automatically be considered for SYCO 11; you still need to submit it again through OpenReview. When submitting, append the words "DEFERRED FROM SYCO X" to the title of your paper, replacing "X" with the appropriate meeting number. There is no need to attach any documents.

The ARRAY Workshop series is intended to bring together researchers from many different practical and theoretical communities, including language designers, library developers, type theorists, compiler researchers, and practitioners. These communities can exchange ideas on the construction of computational tools for manipulating arrays and fundamental principles of array programming. Submissions are welcome in two categories: full papers and extended abstracts. All submissions should be formatted in conformance with the ACM SIGPLAN proceedings style. Accepted submissions in either category will be presented at the workshop. The ARRAY series of workshops explores: * formal semantics and design issues of array-oriented languages and libraries; * correctness of array programs, including type-theoretic issues, formal verification, array models, static analysis; * productivity and performance in compute-intensive application areas of array programming; * systematic notation for array programming, including axis- and index-based approaches; * intermediate languages, virtual machines, and program-transformation techniques for array programs; * representation of and automated reasoning about mathematical structure, such as static and dynamic sparsity, low-rank patterns, and hierarchies of these, with connections to applications such as graph processing, HPC, tensor computation and deep learning; * interfaces between array- and non-array code, including approaches for embedding array programs in general-purpose programming languages; and * efficient mapping of array programs, through compilers, libraries, and code generators, onto execution platforms, targeting multi-cores, SIMD devices, GPUs, distributed systems, and FPGA hardware, by fully automatic and user-assisted means. All submissions must be in PDF format, printable in black and white on US Letter sized paper. Papers must adhere to the standard SIGPLAN conference format: two columns, ten-point font. Full papers may be up to 12 papes, on any topic related to the focus of the workshop. They will be thoroughly reviewed according to the usual criteria of relevance, soundness, novelty, and significance; accepted submissions will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Extended abstracts may be up to 2 pages; they may describe work in progress, tool demonstrations, and summaries of work published in full elsewhere. The focus of the extended abstract should be to explain why the proposed presentation will be of interest to the ARRAY audience. Submissions will be lightly reviewed only for relevance to the workshop, and will not published in the DL.

Their design, implementation and their use in reasoning tasks, ranging from the correctness of software to the properties of formal systems, have been the focus of considerable research over the last two decades. This workshop will bring together designers, implementors and practitioners to discuss various aspects impinging on the structure and utility of logical frameworks, including the treatment of variable binding, inductive and co-inductive reasoning techniques and the expressiveness and lucidity of the reasoning process. LFMTP 2023 will provide researchers a forum to present state-of-the-art techniques and discuss progress in areas such as the following: * Encoding and reasoning about the meta-theory of programming languages, logical systems and related formally specified systems. * Theoretical and practical issues concerning the treatment of variable binding, especially the representation of, and reasoning about, datatypes defined from binding signatures. * Logical treatments of inductive and co-inductive definitions and associated reasoning techniques, including inductive types of higher dimension in homotopy type theory. * Graphical languages for building proofs, applications in geometry, equational reasoning and category theory. * New theory contributions: canonical and substructural frameworks, contextual frameworks, proof-theoretic foundations supporting binders, functional programming over logical frameworks, homotopy and cubical type theory. * Applications of logical frameworks: proof-carrying architectures, proof exchange and transformation, program refactoring, etc. * Techniques for programming with binders in functional programming languages such as Haskell, OCaml or Agda, and logic programming languages such as lambda Prolog or Alpha-Prolog. The workshop's program will include contributed and invited talks. We hope that LFMTP takes place physically in Rome, but online participation will be possible and may even be necessary. ## Important Dates Abstract submission deadline: April 10 Paper submission deadline: April 20 Notification to authors: May 20 ## Submission Submit on EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lfmtp23__;!!IBzWLUs!SRut2nI2ycUBKESzrERVBVFAJDrvnlLBbDMOWeSWLI7E7Q9Ft_RYWixd_ilFSzsOAb_wQConpO_QfNZVKCgBDdIiZ0HdET01osSsRQ$ All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.

VL/HCC 2023 is 100% Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing (TCMC). **Call for Research Papers** IMPORTANT DATES - Abstracts only: April 21, 2023 - Submission deadline: April 28, 2023 - Rebuttal phase: June 5 - 9, 2023 - Notification: June 23, 2023 - Camera-ready: July 14, 2023 SCOPE AND TOPICS We solicit original, unpublished research papers on computing technologies for modeling, programming, communicating, and reasoning, which are easier to learn, use or understand by humans than the current state-of-the-art. Papers should focus on efforts to design, formalize, implement, or evaluate those technologies and languages. This includes technologies intended for general audiences (e.g., professional or novice programmers, or the public) or domain-specific audiences (e.g., people working in business administration, production environments, healthcare, urban design or scientific domains). Empirical papers that validate current proposed solutions with rigorous scientific means (i.e., empirical studies, controlled experiments, rigorous case studies, etc.) are also welcome. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Visual languages: Novel visual languages, Design, evaluation, and theory of visual languages and applications, Development of systems for manipulating and interacting with diagrammatic representations - Human aspects and psychology of software development and language design, such as supporting inclusion and diversity in programming - End-user development: End-user development, adaptation and programming, Creation and evaluation of technologies and infrastructures for end-user development - Crowdsourcing design and development work - Representations: Novel representations and user interfaces for expressing computation, Software, algorithm and data visualization - Modeling: Model-driven development, Domain-specific languages, including modeling languages, Visual modeling of human behavior and socio-technical systems - Thinking more deeply about code: Computational thinking and Computer Science education, Debugging and program understanding, Explainable ML/AI If you are not sure if your paper is a good fit for VL/HCC, feel free to email the PC Co-chairs (see ?Contact? below). We welcome those new to the VL/HCC community to submit! SPECIAL EMPHASIS FOR 2023: Low-Code / No-Code Development This year?s special topic is ?Low-Code / No-Code Development?. This development paradigm enables the creation and deployment of fully functional applications using visual abstractions and interfaces and requiring little or no procedural code. This way, users are empowered to create software applications for constrained domains, even if they lack a programming background. This year, we especially welcome papers at VL/HCC that design, build, or evaluate any aspects of low-code and no-code solutions. PAPER SUBMISSIONS We invite two kinds of papers: - full-length research papers, up to 8 pages - plus unlimited additional pages containing only references and/or acknowledgements - short research papers, up to 4 pages - plus unlimited additional pages containing only references and/or acknowledgements Papers must be submitted using the IEEE two-column conference paper format. Be sure to use the current IEEE conference paper format (which was updated in 2019), and to select the ?US letter? template: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html__;!!IBzWLUs!WyulUY4V4qEKH8J9MRQHouXxvAvK5aXvIOSK0QytdbmehbxIs82jwZChBYqQoYYjUzco26gw_Uqy-Yw6Dy3bZXgoFAhK0A$ Papers should be submitted via the EasyChair system ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vlhcc2023__;!!IBzWLUs!WyulUY4V4qEKH8J9MRQHouXxvAvK5aXvIOSK0QytdbmehbxIs82jwZChBYqQoYYjUzco26gw_Uqy-Yw6Dy3bZXhGUw2SjQ$ ). To facilitate the assigning of papers to reviewers, we require paper abstracts to be submitted via EasyChair at least 1 week prior to the paper submission deadline (see Important Dates below). The abstract must be kept up to date such that it matches exactly the abstract in the submitted paper. The abstract must be no longer than 250 words. All accepted papers, whether full or short, should be complete, self-contained, archival contributions. Contributions from full papers are more extensive than those from short papers. Note that some full paper submissions may be accepted as short papers if reviewers deem contributions to be comparable in size to a short paper. Work-in-progress, which has not yet yielded an archival contribution, should be submitted to the Posters/Showpieces category. All submissions will be reviewed by members of the Program Committee in a double-blind review process. Authors will then receive the reviews for their submissions and will be able to answer them in a rebuttal phase. Only after this step the PC will make a final decision about the acceptance of the submissions. Submissions and reviews for the technical program are managed with EasyChair. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register for VL/HCC 2023 and present the paper at the conference. There will be a virtual presentation option in case of travel restrictions. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference, including IEEE Xplore Digital Library, if the paper is not presented by the author at the conference. The proceedings of IEEE VL/HCC are published in digital form by the IEEE Computer Science Society and archived in the IEEE Digital Library with an official ISBN number. Accepted papers will be available to conference attendees via the IEEE Open Preview program in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!WyulUY4V4qEKH8J9MRQHouXxvAvK5aXvIOSK0QytdbmehbxIs82jwZChBYqQoYYjUzco26gw_Uqy-Yw6Dy3bZXhQKzeKdA$ ). DOUBLE-BLIND REVIEWING We follow a double-blind reviewing process. Both authors and reviewers are expected to make every effort to honor the double-blind reviewing process. In case of questions, please contact the Program Chairs. Authors should ensure that the submission can be evaluated without it being obvious who wrote the paper. This means leaving author names off the paper and using terms like ?previous research? rather than ?our previous research? when describing background. However, do not hide previous work ? papers must still reference all relevant research using full (non-anonymized) citations, including the author?s own prior work, so that reviewers can evaluate novelty. Please reference your own prior work in the third-person just like you would do for any other related work (e.g., avoid ?As described in our previous work [10], ? ? and instead write something like ?As described by [10], ??). It is also important that authors specify all conflicts of interest with potential reviewers during the submission phase. Reviewers should not undertake any investigation that might lead to the revealing of authors? identity. If identities are inadvertently revealed, please contact the Program Chairs. The Program Chairs will check all submissions for obvious signs of lack of anonymity and may ask authors to make changes and resubmit the paper within three days of the submission deadline. Only changes to resolve anonymity issues will be permitted. EVALUATION AND JUSTIFICATION Papers are expected to support their claims with appropriate evidence. For example, a paper that claims to improve programmer productivity is expected to demonstrate improved productivity; a paper that claims to be easier to use should demonstrate increased ease of use. However, not all claims necessarily need to be supported with empirical evidence or studies with people. For example, a paper that claims to make something feasible that was clearly infeasible might substantiate its claim through the existence of a functioning prototype. Moreover, there are many alternatives to empirical evidence that may be appropriate for justifying claims, including analytical methods, formal arguments or case studies. Given this criterion, we encourage potential authors to think carefully about what claims their submission makes and what evidence would adequately support these claims. In addition, we expect short papers to have less comprehensive evaluation than long papers.

(joint with MFPS) Organised by Assia Mahboubi, Inria Scope ----- Algebraic and coalgebraic methods and tools are a mainstay of computer science. From data types to development techniques and specification formalisms, both theoreticians and practitioners have benefited from the large body of research proposed and implemented since the pioneering works of the 1960s. CALCO aims to bring together researchers with interests in both foundational and applicative uses of algebra and coalgebra in computer science, traditional as well as emerging ones. CALCO is a high-level, bi-annual conference formed by joining the forces and reputations of CMCS (the International Workshop on Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science) and WADT (the Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques). Previous CALCO editions took place in Salzburg (Austria, 2021), London (UK, 2019), Ljubljana (Slovenia,2017), Nijmegen (the Netherlands, 2015), Warsaw (Poland, 2013), Winchester (UK, 2011), Udine (Italy, 2009), Bergen (Norway, 2007), Swansea (Wales, 2005). The 10th edition will be held in Bloomington, Indiana, co-located with MFPS XXXIX. It is planned as a physical, in-person event, with support for remote presence, both for speakers and for other participants who are unable or unwilling to travel. Submission Categories --------------------- CALCO invites papers relating to all aspects of algebraic and coalgebraic theory and applications, and distinguishes between four categories of submissions. 1. Regular papers that report * results on theoretical foundations * novel methods and techniques for software development * experiences with technology transfer to industry. 2.

It is affiliated with CADE 2023 and will be held on July 5th-6th, 2023, in Rome, Italy. The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers and users of SMT tools and techniques. Relevant topics include but are not limited to: * Decision procedures and theories of interest * Combinations of decision procedures * Novel implementation techniques * Benchmarks and evaluation methodologies * Applications and case studies * Theoretical results Papers on pragmatic aspects of implementing and using SMT tools, as well as novel applications of SMT, are especially encouraged. == Submission Guidelines Three categories of submissions are invited: 1. Extended abstracts: given the informal style of the workshop, we strongly encourage the submission of preliminary reports of work in progress. They may range in length from very short (a couple of pages) to the full 10 pages and they will be judged based on the expected level of interest for the SMT community. They will be included in the informal proceedings. 2. Original papers: contain original research (simultaneous submissions are not allowed) and sufficient detail to assess the merits and relevance of the submission. For papers reporting experimental results, authors are strongly encouraged to make their data available. 3. Presentation-only papers: describe work recently published or submitted and will not be included in the proceedings. We see this as a way to provide additional access to important developments that SMT Workshop attendees may be unaware of. Papers in all three categories will be peer-reviewed. Papers should not exceed 10 pages and should be in standard-conforming PDF. The 10 page limit does not include references, and technical details may be included in an appendix to be read at the reviewers' discretion. Final versions should be prepared in LaTeX using the easychair.cls class file. To submit a paper, go to the EasyChair SMT 2023 submission page and follow the instructions there. == Program Chairs St?phane Graham-Lengrand, SRI International Mathias Preiner, Stanford University == Program Committee Leonardo Alt, Ethereum Foundation Clark Barrett, Stanford University Fran?ois Bobot, CEA Martin Brain, City, University of London Simon Cruanes, Imandra Rayna Dimitrova, CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security Bruno Dutertre, Amazon Web Services Katalin Fazekas, TU Wien Jochen Hoenicke, Certora Antti Hyv?rinen, Certora Ahmed Irfan, SRI International Mikolas Janota, Czech Technical University in Prague Martin Jonas, Masaryk University, Czech Republic Daniela Kaufmann , TU Wien Aina Niemetz, Stanford University Andres Noetzli, Cubist Inc.

Therefore, we are hiring 6 new faculty members, to strengthen our research in Artificial Intelligence, Cyberphysical systems and Software Engineering in the domains of (1) e-Health and (2) energy and sustainability. These new faculty members will be assigned in different research groups, but inter-group collaboration with other researchers working on these themes is considered essential to reach our overall ambitions. One of the six positions is in the Formal Methods and Tools group (FMT) and focusses on research in energy and sustainability. -- The Position The Formal Methods and Tools group develops and implements mathematical methods, high-performance data structures and algorithms, and suitable programming languages for the design of reliable software- and data-intensive control systems. One important aspect that we would like to consider more prominently in our work is the energy consumption of such systems. Therefore, we are looking for somebody with expertise on energy-efficient software development. Areas that we are interested in are for example the modelling of energy usage of software (possibly considering different hardware models for execution), techniques to estimate the energy consumption of software, and techniques that can be used to (automatically) reduce the energy consumption of software. We are interested in integrating such techniques in many of the techniques that we develop within FMT. We also are interested in collaborating with the other groups within the CS department on this topic. The Formal Methods and Tools group is an internationally well-known group of researchers in the area of formal methods and software engineering. Their research covers a wide range of different tools and techniques. The group is quickly growing: it currently consists of 4 full-time full professors, 2 associate professors and 8 assistant professors. In addition, several part-time full professors are associated to the group. The FMT group has an open and welcoming atmosphere, where there is room for both scientific and social interactions. -- Our offer ?

Smart contracts, i.e. self-enforcing agreements in the form of executable programs are deployed to and run on top of (specialised) blockchains. Present in Bitcoin, mainstream within Ethereum and pervasive in all the last-generation blockchain and multi-chain proposals, smart contract languages and technologies are undergoing an interesting and challenging evolution, which poses open research questions. Such a novel and evolving programming framework and execution environment is challenging in terms of definition and verification. Multidisciplinary and multifactorial aspects affect correctness, safety, efficiency, resilience, privacy, accountability, regulatory compliance, and trust in smart contracts. This workshop focuses on various aspects of the new engineering paradigms, research on programming languages and verification methodologies, in broad terms, for the foundations of Trusted Smart Contracts. A non-exhaustive list of topics of interest and open problems includes: - validation and definition of the programming abstractions and execution model, - foundations of software engineering for smart contracts, - authentication and anonymity management, - privacy and privacy-preserving contracts, - oblivious transfer, - data provenance, - access rights, - game-theoretic approaches for security and validation, - resilience of the validation/mining/execution model, - verification of the properties expected to be enforced by smart contracts, - fairness and decentralisation of contracts and their management, - effects of consensus mechanisms and proof-of mechanisms on smart contracts, - smart contract in side-chains and multi-chains, - blockchain data analytics, - law and regulatory aspects, - rewards, economics and sustainability/stability of the framework, - comparison of the permissioned and non-permissioned scenarios, - use cases and killer applications of smart contracts. Applications of interest include (non-exhaustive list): -decentralised finance, -self-sovereign identity, -non-fungible tokens, -central bank digital currencies, -programmable money, -future outlook on smart contract technologies. The WTSC workshop aims to gather together researchers from both academia and industry interested in the many facets of Trusted Smart Contract engineering, and to provide a multi-disciplinary forum for discussing open problems, proposed solutions and the vision on future developments. WTSC focuses primarily on smart contracts as an application layer on top of blockchains. Aspects of the underlying supporting blockchains may clearly become relevant, particularly if they affect properties of the smart contracts. Experts from fields like (non-exhaustive list): - programming languages, - verification, - security, - software engineering, - decision and game theory, - cryptography, - finance and economics, - law and regulators, as well as, practitioners and relevant companies, are invited to take part and submit their findings, case studies, SOK papers, and reports on open problems for presentation at the workshop. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INVITED SPEAKERS (TBA) WTSC has traditionally had recognised innovators and renown contributors giving invited talks at previous editions, including - Vitalik Buterin (Ethereum) 2017, - Arthur Breitman (Tezos) and Bud Mishra (NYU) 2018, - Igor Artamonov (Splix - Ethereum Classic) and Ian Grigg (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.iang.org__;!!IBzWLUs!RqWcIfXdNAnch02DDry0FoP-k72T0AUGa38KTb6n9CdcIZWOqzhjYz6eAqK4MW4oNwbzl5KzzuMP9vGydyCZqR4RbQsHcw$ ) 2019, - Peter Gutmann (University of Auckland, with Workshop on Coordination of Decentralized Finance) 2020, - Darren Tapp (Dash Investment Foundation), 2021 This year we are aiming at similar high-level invitees. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES WTSC adopts a submission schedule with a double deadline.

The conference will be hosted in Cascais, Lisbon, Portugal on October 22-27, 2023. --------------------------- Topics of Interest --------------------------- SLE covers software language engineering rather than engineering a specific software language. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Software Language Design and Implementation - Approaches to and methods for language design - Static semantics (e.g., design rules, well-formedness constraints) - Techniques for specifying behavioral/executable semantics - Generative approaches (incl. code synthesis, compilation) - Meta-languages, meta-tools, language workbenches * Software Language Validation - Verification and formal methods for languages - Testing techniques for languages - Simulation techniques for languages * Software Language Integration and Composition - Coordination of heterogeneous languages and tools - Mappings between languages (incl. transformation languages) - Traceability between languages - Deployment of languages to different platforms * Software Language Maintenance - Software language reuse - Language evolution - Language families and variability, language and software product lines * Domain-specific approaches for any aspects of SLE (design, implementation, validation, maintenance) * Empirical evaluation and experience reports of language engineering tools - User studies evaluating usability - Performance benchmarks - Industrial applications * Synergies between Language Engineering and emerging/promising research areas - AI and ML language engineering (e.g., ML compiler testing, code classification) Quantum language engineering (e.g., language design for quantum machines) - Language engineering for physical systems (e.g., CPS, IoT, digital twins) - Socio-technical systems and language engineering (e.g., language evolution to adapt to social requirements) - Etc. --------------------------- Types of Submissions --------------------------- SLE accepts the following types of papers: * Research papers: These are ?traditional? papers detailing research contributions to SLE. Papers may range from 6 to 12 pages in length and may optionally include 2 further pages of bibliography/appendices. Papers will be reviewed with an understanding that some results do not need 12 full pages and may be fully described in fewer pages. * New ideas/vision papers: These papers may describe new, unconventional software language engineering research positions or approaches that depart from standard practice. They can describe well-defined research ideas that are at an early stage of investigation. They could also provide new evidence to challenge common wisdom, present new unifying theories about existing SLE research that provides novel insight or that can lead to the development of new technologies or approaches, or apply SLE technology to radically new application areas. New ideas/vision papers must not exceed 5 pages and may optionally include 1 further page of bibliography/appendices. * SLE Body of Knowledge: The SLE Body of Knowledge (SLEBoK) is a community-wide effort to provide a unique and comprehensive description of the concepts, best practices, tools, and methods developed by the SLE community. In this respect, the SLE conference will accept surveys, essays, open challenges, empirical observations, and case study papers on the SLE topics. These can focus on, but are not limited to, methods, techniques, best practices, and teaching approaches. Papers in this category can have up to 20 pages, including bibliography/appendices. * Tool papers: These papers focus on the tooling aspects often forgotten or neglected in research papers. A good tool paper focuses on practical insights that will likely be useful to other implementers or users in the future. Any of the SLE topics of interest are appropriate areas for tool demonstrations. Submissions must not exceed 5 pages and may optionally include 1 further page of bibliography/appendices. They may optionally include an appendix with a demo outline/screenshots and/or a short video/screencast illustrating the tool. **Workshops**: Workshops will be organized by SPLASH. Please inform us and contact the SPLASH organizers if you would like to organize a workshop of interest to the SLE audience. Information on how to submit workshops can be found on the SPLASH 2023 Website. --------------------------- Important Dates --------------------------- All dates are Anywhere on Earth. * 1st round submissions - Abstract submissions: March 31, 2023 - Paper submissions: April 7, 2023 - Notification: May 5, 2023 * 2nd round submissions - Abstract submissions: June 26, 2023 - Paper submissions: June 30, 2023 - Review notification: August 11, 2023 (starting of the rebuttal) - Author response period: August 18, 2023 (end of the rebuttal) - Notification: August 25, 2023 * Artifact submissions: August 30, 2023 * Artifact kick-the-tires Author response: September 15, 2023 * Artifact notification: September 29, 2023 * Conference: October 22-27, 2023 (co-located with SPLASH, precise dates to be announced) --------------------------- Format --------------------------- Submissions have to use the ACM SIGPLAN Conference Format "acmart"(https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://sigplan.org/Resources/Author/*acmart-format__;Iw!!IBzWLUs!VGUml266AAgaUqXu021I9YJ4fz9LAFaYOp-P_tB2cuFSEIrXUnHO13erq2wQWiCvnEySCHr3y6SEUuhhj_uCy1h_BnNc-QzAShbFzcMz$ ); please make sure that you always use the latest ACM SIGPLAN acmart LaTeX template(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/consolidated-tex-template/acmart-master.zip__;!!IBzWLUs!VGUml266AAgaUqXu021I9YJ4fz9LAFaYOp-P_tB2cuFSEIrXUnHO13erq2wQWiCvnEySCHr3y6SEUuhhj_uCy1h_BnNc-QzASg1dUmLX$ ), and that the document class definition is `\documentclass[sigplan,anonymous,review]{acmart}`.

Satisfiability Checking has recently started to tackle similar problems but with different algorithmic and technological solutions. The two communities share many central interests, but researchers from these two communities rarely interact. Also, the lack of common or compatible interfaces for tools is an obstacle to their fruitful combination. Bridges between the communities in the form of common platforms and road-maps are necessary to initiate an exchange, and to support and direct their interaction. The aim of this workshop is to provide an opportunity to discuss, share knowledge and experience across both communities. - KEYNOTE SPEAKER -- Haniel Barbosa (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Brazil) -- SUBMISSIONS AND PARTICIPATION -- The workshop series has emerged from an H2020 FETOPEN CSA project "SC-Square", which ran from 2016 to 2018. It has been continued aiming at building bridges bewteen Satisfiability Checking and Symbolic Computation. It is open for submission and participation to everyone interested in the topics, whether or not they were members or associates of the original project. The topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Satisfiability Checking for Symbolic Computation * Symbolic Computation for Satisfiability Checking * Applications relying on both Symbolic Computation ? and Satisfiability Checking * Combination of Symbolic Computation and ? Satisfiability Checking tools * Quantifier elimination and decision procedures and their ? embedding into computer algebra software and logic provers, including ? but not limited to SMT solvers -- SUBMISSION GUIDELINES -- We welcome submissions in the following categories: * Full papers on research, case studies or tool development ? should present unpublished work not submitted elsewhere ? (with a limit of 16 pages, not counting references) * Extended abstracts on research, case studies or tool ? development should present unpublished (potentially ongoing) ? work not submitted elsewhere ? (2-4 pages, not counting references) * Presentation-only submissions on already published work, work ? to be published elsewhere, or work in progress on SC-Square ? related open problems or future challenges. Furthermore, ? people from other scientific disciplines and industry and ? business are warmly invited to attend and describe their ? problems, challenges, goals, and expectations for the ? SC-Square community. Please submit an abstract for approval by ? the PC (with a limit of 2 pages). * Posters All submissions must be in English. Full papers and extended abstracts must and use the new CEUR-ART format. All submissions should be entered to the EasyChair system before the submission deadline. Please declare the category of your submission by prefixing the title on the EasyChair form with "FULL", "EA", "PRESENTATION", or "POSTER", respectively. Submission implies a committment that, in case of acceptance, at least one of the authors attends and presents at the workshop. -- PROCEEDINGS -- We plan to publish the proceedings of the workshop as a CEUR-WS proceedings covering full papers and extended abstracts. Authors may opt out of this, should they prefer to publish the material elsewhere. Furthermore, there will be post-proceedings in an issue of the Springer journal Mathematics in Computer Science dedicated to the workshop. Authors of all four categories are eligible for submission of a corresponding journal article. Journal versions of full papers require at least 30% new material compared to the version originally accepted. All journal submissions will be thoroughly peer-reviewed according to the standards of the journal. -- WORKSHOP CO-CHAIRS -- * Erika Abraham (RWTH Aachen University, Germany) * Thomas Sturm (CNRS, France & MPI Informatics, Germany) -- PROGRAM COMMITTEE -- * Anna Bigatti (University of Genoa, Italy) * Curtis Bright (University of Windsor, Canada) * Martin Bromberger (MPI Informatik Saarbruecken, Germany) * Christopher Brown (United States Naval Academy, USA) * James H.

This school, the twelfth in the series, will focus on the principles and practice of formal techniques, with a strong emphasis on the hands-on use and development of this technology. It primarily targets graduate students and young researchers who are interested in studying and using formal techniques in their research.? A prior background in formal methods is helpful but not required. Participants at the school can expect to have a seriously fun time experimenting with the tools and techniques presented in the lectures during laboratory sessions. This year, 2023, we celebrate the 60th anniversary of Alan Robinson's first publication on Resolution, and are delighted to have a series of lectures devoted to the latest developments in this important strand of automated reasoning.? The summer school will be immediately followed by a Formal Methods in the Field (FMiTF) Bootcamp.? Participants in the Bootcamp will employ formal tools and techniques (including those taught in this and prior summer school editions) under the supervision of the Bootcamp faculty to create verified artifacts. ==================================================================================================== The lecturers at? the school include: * Pamela Zave (Princeton) and Tim Nelson (Brown) ? No More Garbage In:? Validating Formal Models * Laura Kovacs (TU Wien) and Andrei Voronkov (Manchester) ? First-Order Theorem Proving * Geoff Sutcliffe (Miami) ? The TPTP World - Infrastructure for Automated Reasoning * Natarajan Shankar and Stephane Graham-Lengrand (SRI CSL) ? Speaking Logic In addition, we have distinguished invited talks: * Maria Paola Bonacina, Universit? degli Studi di Verona ? Resolution, Unification, and Subsumption: Fundamental Concepts in Theorem Proving * Leslie Lamport (MSR) ? Q & A on Paxos * Jesse Michael Han (OpenAI): ? Language Model Software and the Future of Verified Programming The Formal Methods in the Field Bootcamp will be held following the summer school from May 29 to the morning of June 2, 2023.? This edition of the FMiTF Bootcamp will be taught by SRI staff with expertise spanning a range of tools covering static and dynamic analyzers, code verifiers, rewrite engines, SAT/SMT solvers, interactive proof assistants, and model checkers. ==================================================================================================== This year, the school/bootcamp will take place in a hybrid mode: the lectures and labs will be live-streamed and recorded. We strongly encourage in-person participation so that you can benefit from interactions outside the classroom. We have funding from NSF to cover transportation/food/lodging expenses for selected US-based students. Non-student and non-US in-person participants are expected to cover their own transportation and will be charged a fee (around $150/day) to cover the cost of food and lodging. The registration link is at the URL: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://fm.csl.sri.com/SSFT23__;!!IBzWLUs!XmkDk3ABZa9L0FFkvSxm14UbkMORACF1X0cncDfBLZ1BbfHMSoRcG_0u7-9RFkwnvATmMbibw-IbWpycgouobQttUPBhlMY$ . Participants can register separately for the school and the bootcamp. The 2023 Summer School on Formal Techniques will be presented in a hybrid format.? We encourage those students who can attend in person to do so.? Those who cannot be there in person can still participate virtually but they will need to synchronize with the Pacific Daylight Savings Time. Applications should be submitted together with names of two references (preferably advisors, professors, or senior colleagues). Applicants are urged to submit their applications before April 30, 2023, since there are only a limited number of spaces available.? Those needing invitation letters for visa purposes are encouraged to complete their applications as early as possible.? We strongly encourage the participation of women and under-represented minorities in the summer school.

Unification is concerned with the problem of identifying terms, finding solutions for equations, or making formulas equivalent. It is a fundamental process used in a number of fields of computer science, including automated reasoning, term rewriting, logic programming, natural language processing, program analysis, types, etc. The International Workshop on Unification (UNIF) is a yearly forum for researchers in unification theory and related fields to meet old and new colleagues, to present recent (even unfinished) work, and to discuss new ideas and trends. It is also a good opportunity for young researchers and scientists working in related areas to get an overview of the current state of the art in unification theory. Topics ------ A non-exhaustive list of topics of interest includes: * syntactic and equational unification * matching * constraint solving * unification in modal, temporal, and description logics * narrowing * disunification * anti-unification * semi-unification * higher-order unification * complexity issues * implementation techniques * applications Submission ---------- Short papers or extended abstracts, up to 5 pages in EasyChair style, should be submitted electronically as PDF files through the EasyChair submission site: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=unif2023__;!!IBzWLUs!T4ZdlRGiQVYFGzxYRmsQPToILMerC9T38heZ1eRC4lO6Ocq2L5gbroioBn2gw7CwHn5jsLI4hMBKeBikqC20l_VK4hH7uQ7w4txzmwcOvYA$ Abstracts will be evaluated by the Program Committee regarding their significance for the workshop.

The work will take place within the Chair of Theoretical Computer Science at LMU Munich under Jasmin Blanchette's supervision with the participation of two external experts: Cl?udia Nalon (University of Bras?lia) and Sophie Tourret (Inria Nancy). Modal logics are extensions of classical logics with operators that allow for the qualification of truth. Model theory for modal logics is concerned with the interplay between the language (syntax, i.e., the set of its formulas) and its meaning (semantics, i.e., the structures over which the language is interpreted). There are, however, different ways of characterizing meaning for modal sentences and also several (well-established) results that allow for restriction on the sets of structures being considered. This project concerns the formalization in Isabelle of those results for general Kripke structures for generalized modal operators (i.e., of any arity). The goal is to produce a library that could then be used (and possibly extended) for specific applications, in particular those related to proof theory. The position is categorized as TV-L E13 according to the German salary scale. It includes some teaching obligations. The starting date is flexible. Please contact Jasmin Blanchette (jasmin.blanchette at ifi.lmu.de) for more information or if you want to apply. The application deadline is 15 April 2023.

Sets also occur in the formalization of mathematics, as evidenced by the large library of the Mizar proof system, for example. In addition, still in the domain of theorem proving, there is an increasing interest to automate set theory (which is known to be a difficult problem), with some concrete realizations, such as mp (the "main prover" of Atelier B) or different decision procedures for SAT or SMT solvers. Sets are also the main features of some programming languages like the former SetL language or the more recent {log} language (pronounced as setlog). The workshop aims at bringing together researchers interested in set theory, especially to design tools for dealing with set theory, such as interactive or automated theorem provers, proof checkers, theories for general purpose proof tools, constraint solvers, programming languages etc. These tools may be dedicated or general purpose tools. Contributions by theoreticians working on set theories or fragments of set theories in the aim of designing concrete tools, and by practitioners using set-based tools are both welcome. We are also interested in contributions providing some comparisons between set modeling techniques and other formalisms, such as type theory (and variants) for instance. Finally, regarding the domains of application, we mainly expect contributions in the framework of formal methods, but not exhaustively, and contributions reporting formalizations of mathematics using set theory for example could be of interest for this workshop as well. Topics Topics of interest for this workshop include all aspects of set theory and corresponding tools. More specifically, some suggested topics are: * Proof tools for sets * Constraint solvers for sets * Set-based programming languages * Automated verification in set theory * Encodings of set theory in provers * Set theories for SMT solvers * Use of set-based tools in formal methods * Use of set-based tools in mathematics * Comparison of set-based tools * Comparison between set and type theories * Experience reports Contributions and Proceedings Submitted papers must be 6-15 pages in length, following the Springer LNCS format. These submissions may be: * Research papers providing new concepts and results * Position papers and research perspectives * Experience reports * Tool presentations Proceedings, including all the papers selected for the workshop, will be published as online proceedings in the CEUR workshop proceedings series (CEUR-WS.org) together with the other workshop papers and informal submissions of CICM.

The Erlang model of concurrent programming has been widely emulated, for example by Akka in Scala. Moreover, several newer programming languages, such as Elixir, have been designed atop Erlang's VM. The workshop is welcoming contributions related to any and all systems like those mentioned above. The workshop aims to enable participants to learn about recent developments on techniques and tools, novel applications, draw lessons from users? experiences and identify research problems and common areas relevant to the practice of Erlang and other Erlang-like languages, functional programming, distribution, concurrency, etc. ## Topics This year we invite three types of submissions: * Technical papers describing language extensions, critical discussions of the status quo, formal semantics of language constructs, program analysis and transformation, virtual machine extensions and compilation techniques, implementations and interfaces of Erlang in/with other languages, and new tools (profilers, tracers, debuggers, testing frameworks, etc.). Submission related to Erlang, Elixir, Lisp Flavored Erlang, and topics in functional, concurrent, and distributed programming are welcome and encouraged. The maximum length for technical papers is restricted to 12 pages, but short papers (max. 6 pages) are also welcome. * Practice and application papers describing uses of Erlang and related languages in the ?real-world?, libraries for specific tasks, experiences from using Erlang in specific application domains, reusable programming idioms and elegant new ways of using Erlang to approach or solve particular problems, etc. The maximum length for the practice and application papers is restricted to 12 pages, but short papers (max. 6 pages) are also welcome. * Lightning talks describing topics related to the workshop goals that allow participants to present and demonstrate projects and preliminary work in academia and industry. Presentations in this category will be given at most an hour of shared simultaneous presentation time, will not be part of the peer review process and will not be part of the formal proceedings. Notification of acceptance will be continuous. ## Important dates | Submission deadline | 12 May 2023 | | --- | --- | | Notification | 30 June 2023 | | Workshop | 4 Sept. 2023 | Deadlines are anywhere on Earth. ## Workshop Co-Chairs * Burcu Kulahcioglu Ozkan, Delft University of Technology, Netherlands * Kiko Fernandez-Reyes, Ericsson, Sweden ## Program Committee (Note: the Workshop Co-Chairs are also committee members) * Dino Distefano, Facebook London * Thomas Arts, Quivq, Sweden * Laura Bocchi, Kent University, UK * Emanuele D'Osulado, MPI-SWS, Germany * Juliana Franco, DeepMind, UK * Elisa Gonzalez Boix, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium * Torben Hoffmann, Erlang Solutions, Denmark * Marjan Sirjani, Reykjavik University and Malardalen University, Iceland and Sweden * Silvia Tapia Tarifa, University of Oslo, Norway * Phil Trinder, University of Glasgow, Scotland * Peter Van Roy, Universit? catholique de Louvain, Belgium * Mirko Viroli, University of Bologna, Italy * Tobias Wrigstad, Uppsala University, Sweden ## Instructions to authors ### Submission Submissions must adhere to SIGPLAN?s republication policy (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/__;!!IBzWLUs!XgQfrphDpJIEl6IRRelfYAzaxzRPNrNqfeGSfzu7ZTof7XmGewwkoh187qRykxCFkdzqlVSEeu7JklucmMXZyHStiv5fckPIdBIq1JR7ePA$ ), and authors should be aware of ACM?s policies on plagiarism (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism__;!!IBzWLUs!XgQfrphDpJIEl6IRRelfYAzaxzRPNrNqfeGSfzu7ZTof7XmGewwkoh187qRykxCFkdzqlVSEeu7JklucmMXZyHStiv5fckPIdBIqzzjzQL0$ ). Program Committee members are allowed to submit papers, but their papers will be held to a higher standard. Papers must be submitted online via HotCRP at: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://erlang2023.hotcrp.com__;!!IBzWLUs!XgQfrphDpJIEl6IRRelfYAzaxzRPNrNqfeGSfzu7ZTof7XmGewwkoh187qRykxCFkdzqlVSEeu7JklucmMXZyHStiv5fckPIdBIqHCL40Bo$ Lightning talks can be submitted to the workshop's co-chairs via e- mail. ### Formatting Submitted papers should be in portable document format (PDF), formatted using the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines. Authors should use the `acmart` format, with the `sigplan` sub-format for ACM proceedings. For details, see: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/*acmart-format__;Iw!!IBzWLUs!XgQfrphDpJIEl6IRRelfYAzaxzRPNrNqfeGSfzu7ZTof7XmGewwkoh187qRykxCFkdzqlVSEeu7JklucmMXZyHStiv5fckPIdBIq4dB0VPo$ It is recommended to use the `review` option when submitting a paper; this option enables line numbers for easy reference in reviews. ### Supplementary material Authors have the option to attach supplementary material to a submission, on the understanding that reviewers may choose not to look at it.

Organised by Brendan Fong and Brandon Shapiro (Topos Institute), Fabio Zanasi (University College London) ?Machine-checked proofs in mathematics and meta-mathematics? (joint with MFPS) Organised by Assia Mahboubi, Inria Scope ----- Algebraic and coalgebraic methods and tools are a mainstay of computer science. From data types to development techniques and specification formalisms, both theoreticians and practitioners have benefited from the large body of research proposed and implemented since the pioneering works of the 1960s. CALCO aims to bring together researchers with interests in both foundational and applicative uses of algebra and coalgebra in computer science, traditional as well as emerging ones. CALCO is a high-level, bi-annual conference formed by joining the forces and reputations of CMCS (the International Workshop on Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science) and WADT (the Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques). Previous CALCO editions took place in Salzburg (Austria, 2021), London (UK, 2019), Ljubljana (Slovenia,2017), Nijmegen (the Netherlands, 2015), Warsaw (Poland, 2013), Winchester (UK, 2011), Udine (Italy, 2009), Bergen (Norway, 2007), Swansea (Wales, 2005). The 10th edition will be held in Bloomington, Indiana, co-located with MFPS XXXIX. It is planned as a physical, in-person event, with support for remote presence, both for speakers and for other participants who are unable or unwilling to travel. Submission Categories --------------------- CALCO invites papers relating to all aspects of algebraic and coalgebraic theory and applications, and distinguishes between four categories of submissions. 1. Regular papers that report * results on theoretical foundations * novel methods and techniques for software development * experiences with technology transfer to industry. 2. (Co)Algebraic Pearls papers that * present possibly known material in a novel and enlightening way. 3. Early ideas abstracts that lead to * presentations of work in progress * proposals for original venues of research. 4. Tool presentation papers that * report on the features and uses of algebraic/coalgebraic tools. Topics of Interests ------------------- All topics relating to algebraic and coalgebraic theory and applications are of interest for CALCO, and among them * Models and logics - Automata and languages - Graph transformations and term rewriting - Modal logics - Proof systems - Relational systems * Algebraic and coalgebraic semantics - Abstract data types - Re-engineering techniques (program transformations) - Semantics of conceptual modelling methods and techniques - Semantics of programming languages * Methodologies in software and systems engineering - Development processes - Method integration - Usage guidelines * Specialised models and calculi - Hybrid, probabilistic, and timed systems - Concurrent, distributed, mobile, cyber-physical, and context-aware computational paradigms - Systems theory and computational models (chemical, biological, etc.) * System specification and verification - Formal testing and quality assurance - Generative programming and model-driven development - Integration of formal specification techniques - Model-driven development - Specification languages, methods, and environments * Tools supporting algebraic and coalgebraic methods for - Advances in automated verification - Model checking - Theorem proving - Testing * String diagrams and network theory - Theory of PROPs and operads - Rewriting problems and higher-dimensional approaches - Automated reasoning with string diagrams - Applications of string diagrams * Quantum computing - Categorical semantics for quantum computing - Quantum calculi and programming languages - Foundational structures for quantum computing - Applications of quantum algebra Submissions Guidelines ---------------------- All submissions will be handled via EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=calco2023__;!!IBzWLUs!ThBIwxt2rpf9FV03ZRBPCsv-1fTHsyIEXnCT0aVRB6K-iqMw0yl7FPoEbG5NzcXnqxEuW-ZpzGBZs_0rcSpRMcpu8KDynBXCLCIz8kQ$ The format for all submissions is specified by LIPIcs. Please use the latest version of the style: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/instructions-for-authors/__;!!IBzWLUs!ThBIwxt2rpf9FV03ZRBPCsv-1fTHsyIEXnCT0aVRB6K-iqMw0yl7FPoEbG5NzcXnqxEuW-ZpzGBZs_0rcSpRMcpu8KDynBXC5Zwnvt4$ It is recommended that submissions adhere to that format and length. Submissions that are clearly too long may be rejected immediately. Regular papers -------------- Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers in English presenting original research. Submitted papers must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Regular papers should be maximum 15 pages long, excluding references. Proofs omitted due to space limitations may be included in a clearly marked appendix. Proceedings will be published in the Dagstuhl LIPIcs Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics series. A special issue of the open access journal Logical Methods in Computer Science (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.lmcs-online.org__;!!IBzWLUs!ThBIwxt2rpf9FV03ZRBPCsv-1fTHsyIEXnCT0aVRB6K-iqMw0yl7FPoEbG5NzcXnqxEuW-ZpzGBZs_0rcSpRMcpu8KDynBXC3-CrvuQ$ ), containing extended versions of selected papers, is planned. (Co)algebraic pearls -------------------- This is a recent submission category. Explaining a known idea in a new way may make as strong a contribution as inventing a new idea. We encourage the submission of pearls: elegant essays that illustrate an idea in a beautiful or didactically clever way, perhaps by developing an application. Pearls are typically short and concise and so should not be longer than regular papers in the format specified by LIPIcs. Authors who feel they need a bit more space should consult with the PC co-chairs. The accepted papers will be included in the final proceedings of the conference. Early ideas abstracts --------------------- Submissions should not exceed 2 pages in the format specified by LIPIcs. The volume of selected abstracts will be made available on arXiv and on the CALCO pages. Authors will retain copyright, and are also encouraged to disseminate the results by subsequent publication elsewhere. Tool papers ----------- Submissions should not exceed 5 pages in the format specified by LIPIcs. The accepted tool papers will be included in the final proceedings of the conference. The tools should be made available on the web at the time of submission for download and evaluation. Best Paper and Best Presentation Awards --------------------------------------- This edition of CALCO will feature two awards: a Best Paper Award whose recipients will be selected by the PC before the conference and a Best Presentation Award, elected by the participants.

Please share, and submit your best papers, experience reports, and architectural pearls on large-scale functional programming! Best wishes, Mike Sperber and Graham Hutton Program Chairs, FUNARCH 2023 ====================================================================== *** FUNARCH 2023 -- CALL FOR PAPERS *** The First ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Functional Software Architecture - FP in the Large 8th September 2023, Seattle, Washington, USA Co-located with ICFP 2023 https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tinyurl.com/FUNARCH23__;!!IBzWLUs!W9oHhvKx6maWHN3N6CSbEYahQLjEotWE3ZrOraEtGBp8uNztnKGX587xJmezKS3Q3XxBfw8F2Z-hyaEkGlDUmnsa5nqic9diRojQ0wch7IPqaw$ ====================================================================== TIMELINE: Paper submission 1st June 2023 Author notification 28th June 2023 Camera ready copy 18th July 2023 Workshop 8th Sept 2023 (date to be confirmed) BACKGROUND: "Functional Software Architecture" refers to methods of construction and structure of large and long-lived software projects that are implemented in functional languages and released to real users, typically in industry. The goals for the workshop are: - To assemble a community interested in software architecture techniques and technologies specific to functional programming; - To identify, categorize, and document topics relevant to the field of functional software architecture; - To connect the functional programming community to the software architecture community to cross-pollinate between the two. The workshop follows on from the Functional Software Architecture open space that was held at ICFP 2022 in Slovenia. SCOPE: The workshop seeks submissions in a range of categories: - You're a member of the FP community and have thought about how to support programming in the large, for example by framing functional ideas in architectural terms or vice verse, comparing different languages in terms of their architectural capabilities, clarifying architectural roles played by formal methods, proof assistants and DSLs, or observing how functional concepts are used in other language and architecture communities. Great, submit a research paper! - You're a member of the architecture community, and have thought about how your discipline might help functional programmers, for example by applying domain-driven design, implementing hexagonal architecture, or designing self-contained systems. Excellent, submit a research paper! - You've worked on a large project using functional programming, and it's worked out well, or terribly, or a mix of both; bonus points for deriving architectural principles from your experience. Wonderful, submit an experience report! - You know a neat architectural idiom or pattern that may be useful to others developing large functional software systems. Fabulous, submit an architectural pearl! - You have something that doesn't fit the above categories, but that still relates to functional software architecture, such as something that can be written up, or that could be part of the workshop format like a panel debate or a fishbowl. Superb, submit to the open category! Research papers should explain their research contributions in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and relating it to previous work, and to other languages where appropriate. Experience reports and architectural pearls need not necessarily report original research results. The key criterion for such papers is that they make a contribution from which others can benefit. It is not enough simply to describe a large software system, or to present ideas that are specific to a particular system. Open category submissions that are not intended for publication are not required to follow the formatting guidelines, and can submit in PDF, word or plain text format as preferred. If you are unsure whether your contribution is suitable, or if you need any kind of help with your submission, please email the program chairs at . SUBMISSION: Papers must be submitted by 1st June 2023 using EasyChair, via the following link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tinyurl.com/FUNARCH23-submit__;!!IBzWLUs!W9oHhvKx6maWHN3N6CSbEYahQLjEotWE3ZrOraEtGBp8uNztnKGX587xJmezKS3Q3XxBfw8F2Z-hyaEkGlDUmnsa5nqic9diRojQ0wddYjqtHg$ Formatting: submissions intended for publication must be in PDF format and follow the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines, using the acmart format and the sigplan sub-format. Please use the review option, as this enables line numbers for easy reference in reviews.

RM is concerned with the runtime analysis of software and hardware system executions in order to infer properties relating to system behaviour. Example applications include telemetry, log aggregation, threshold alerting, performance monitoring and adherence to correctness properties (more commonly referred to as Runtime Verification). RM has gained popularity as a solution to ensure software reliability, bridging the gap between formal verification and testing: on the one hand, the notion of event trace abstracts over system executions, thus favoring system agnosticism to better support reuse and interoperability; on the other hand, monitoring a system offers more opportunities for addressing error recovery, self-adaptation, and issues that go beyond software reliability. The goal of VORTEX is to bring together researchers contributing on all aspects of RM covering and possibly integrating both theoretical and practical aspects, with particular focus on hybrid approaches inspired by formal methods, program analysis, testing. Call for Papers --------------- Submissions are expected to be in English and to belong to one of the following two categories: * regular paper, page limit 8 in acmart sigconf style: unpublished self-contained work * extended abstract, page limit 4 in acmart sigconf style: original contribution, not yet fully developed Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following ones: * monitor construction and synthesis techniques * program adaptation * monitoring oriented programming * runtime enforcement, fault detection, recovery and repair * combination of static and dynamic analyses * specification formalisms for RM * specification mining * monitoring concurrent/distributed systems * RM for safety and security * RM for the Internet of Things * industrial applications * integrating RM, formal verification, and testing * tool development * instrumentation techniques for RM * surveys on different RM tools, formal frameworks or methodologies * presentations of RM tools * techniques to increase coverage of RM, as concolic execution Papers must be submitted electronically via EasyChair (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=vortex2023__;!!IBzWLUs!TEp6M7bN4ySQbt74tXKkDwqE7-F-lYAN8cdP9o6fLv1GEt54g4m8cPcbmrssHyHxZ8EE9_6AE01i6H5DMNeQLLYU7dyLsGNnGKky8vw$ ); the submission deadline is April 30 AoE.

The goal is to stimulate research in the use of logical formalisms and methods for analyzing, performing, specifying, and reasoning about computations, including mechanisms for concurrency, security, static analysis, and verification. Scope -------- Submissions are invited on all topics related to declarative programming, from principles to practice, from foundations to applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to - Language Design: domain-specific languages; interoperability; concurrency, parallelism and distribution; modules; functional languages; reactive languages; languages with objects; languages for quantum computing; languages inspired by biological and chemical computation; metaprogramming. - Declarative languages in artificial intelligence: logic programming; database languages; knowledge representation languages; probabilistic languages; differentiable languages. - Implementations: abstract machines; interpreters; compilation; compile-time and run-time optimization; memory management. - Foundations: types; logical frameworks; monads and effects; semantics. - Analysis and Transformation: partial evaluation; abstract interpretation; control flow; data flow; information flow; termination analysis; resource analysis; type inference and type checking; verification; validation; debugging; testing. - Tools and Applications: programming and proof environments; verification tools; case studies in proof assistants or interactive theorem provers; certification; novel applications of declarative programming inside and outside of CS; declarative programming pearls; practical experience reports and industrial application; education. The PC chair will be happy to advise on the appropriateness of a topic. Submission Categories --------------------- Submissions can be made in three categories: - Research Papers, - System Descriptions, - Experience Reports. Submissions of Research Papers must present original research which is unpublished and not submitted elsewhere. They must not exceed 12 pages (including figures, but excluding bibliography). Work that already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshop proceedings may be submitted (please contact the PC chair in case of questions). Research papers will be judged on originality, significance, correctness, clarity, and readability. Submission of System Descriptions must describe a working system whose description has not been published or submitted elsewhere. They must not exceed 10 pages (including figures, but excluding bibliography) and should contain a link to a working system. System Descriptions must be marked as such at the time of submission and will be judged on originality, significance, usefulness, clarity, and readability. Submissions of Experience Reports are meant to help create a body of published, refereed, citable evidence where declarative programming such as functional, logic, answer-set, constraint programming, etc., is used in practice. They must not exceed 5 pages including references. Experience Reports must be marked as such at the time of submission and need not report original research results. They will be judged on significance, usefulness, clarity, and readability. Supplementary material may be provided via a link to an extended version of the submission (recommended), or in clearly marked appendices beyond the above-mentioned page limits. Reviewers are not required to read extended versions or any material beyond the respective page limit. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Program committee chair: Santiago Escobar, Universitat Politecnica de Valencia, Spain Steering committee chair: James Cheney, Edinburgh University, UK ------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

As with last year, Haskell'23 will use a single-track submission process. That is, we will only have the regular track and no early track. The Haskell Symposium presents original research on Haskell, discusses practical experience and future development of the language, and promotes other forms of declarative programming. Topics of interest include: * Language design, with a focus on possible extensions and modifications of Haskell as well as critical discussions of the status quo; * Theory, such as formal semantics of the present language or future extensions, type systems, effects, metatheory, and foundations for program analysis and transformation; * Implementations, including program analysis and transformation, static and dynamic compilation for sequential, parallel, and distributed architectures, memory management, as well as foreign function and component interfaces; * Libraries, that demonstrate new ideas or techniques for functional programming in Haskell; * Tools, such as profilers, tracers, debuggers, preprocessors, and testing tools; * Applications, to scientific and symbolic computing, databases, multimedia, telecommunication, the web, and so forth; * Functional Pearls, being elegant and instructive programming examples; * Experience Reports, to document general practice and experience in education, industry, or other contexts; * Tutorials, to document how to use a particular language feature, programming technique, tool or library within the Haskell ecosystem; * System Demonstrations, based on running software rather than novel research results. Regular papers should explain their research contributions in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and relating it to previous work, and to other languages where appropriate. Experience reports and functional pearls need not necessarily report original academic research results. For example, they may instead report reusable programming idioms, elegant ways to approach a problem, or practical experience that will be useful to other users, implementers, or researchers. The key criterion for such a paper is that it makes a contribution from which other Haskellers can benefit. It is not enough simply to describe a standard solution to a standard programming problem, or report on experience where you used Haskell in the standard way and achieved the result you were expecting. Like an experience report and a functional pearl, tutorials should make a contribution from which other Haskellers can benefit. What distinguishes a tutorial is that its focus is on explaining an aspect of the Haskell language and/or ecosystem in a way that is generally useful to a Haskell audience. Tutorials for many such topics can be found online; the distinction here is that by writing it up for formal review it will be vetted by experts and formally published. System demonstrations should summarize the system capabilities that would be demonstrated. The proposals will be judged on whether the ensuing session is likely to be important and interesting to the Haskell community at large, whether on grounds academic or industrial, theoretical or practical, technical, social or artistic. Please contact the program chair with any questions about the relevance of a proposal. If your contribution is not a research paper, please mark the title of your experience report, functional pearl, tutorial or system demonstration as such, by supplying a subtitle (Experience Report, Functional Pearl, Tutorial Paper, System Demonstration). Submission Details ================== Formatting ---------- Submitted papers should be in portable document format (PDF), formatted using the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines. Authors should use the `acmart` format, with the `sigplan` sub-format for ACM proceedings. For details, see: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/*acmart-format__;Iw!!IBzWLUs!QIwi2Qfwj4t4dATcGNBTW7JDu5NQKCAWNU4Nm2eqWTyAiimQxb5juWbUcbRPFSJuFkdSS2ejKSfx3Uuug0_0x-UysgYSjM6Kdg$ It is recommended to use the `review` option when submitting a paper; this option enables line numbers for easy reference in reviews. Functional pearls, experience reports, tutorials and demo proposals should be labelled clearly as such. Lightweight Double-blind Reviewing ---------------------------------- Haskell Symposium 2023 will use a lightweight double-blind reviewing process. To facilitate this, submitted papers must adhere to two rules: 1. Author names and institutions must be omitted, and 2. References to authors' own related work should be in the third person (e.g., not "We build on our previous work" but rather "We build on the work of "). The purpose of this process is to help the reviewers come to an initial judgement about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the paper more difficult (e.g., important background references should not be omitted or anonymised). In addition, authors should feel free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their paper as they normally would. For instance, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web or give talks on their research ideas. A reviewer will learn the identity of the author(s) of a paper after a review is submitted. Page Limits ----------- The length of submissions should not exceed the following limits: Regular paper: 12 pages Functional pearl: 12 pages Tutorial: 12 pages Experience report: 6 pages Demo proposal: 2 pages There is no requirement that all pages are used. For example, a functional pearl may be much shorter than 12 pages. In all cases, the list of references is not counted against these page limits. Deadlines --------- Paper submission: 1 June 2023 (Thu) Notification: 4 July 2023 (Tue) Camera ready: 18 July 2023 (Tue) Deadlines are anywhere on Earth. Submission ---------- Submissions must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/__;!!IBzWLUs!QIwi2Qfwj4t4dATcGNBTW7JDu5NQKCAWNU4Nm2eqWTyAiimQxb5juWbUcbRPFSJuFkdSS2ejKSfx3Uuug0_0x-UysgbyvWs2Kg$ ), and authors should be aware of ACM's policies on plagiarism (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism__;!!IBzWLUs!QIwi2Qfwj4t4dATcGNBTW7JDu5NQKCAWNU4Nm2eqWTyAiimQxb5juWbUcbRPFSJuFkdSS2ejKSfx3Uuug0_0x-UysgZ8HmlZnw$ ). Program Committee members are allowed to submit papers, but their papers will be held to a higher standard. The paper submission deadline and length limitations are firm. There will be no extensions, and papers violating the length limitations will be summarily rejected. Papers should be submitted through HotCRP at: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://haskell23.hotcrp.com/__;!!IBzWLUs!QIwi2Qfwj4t4dATcGNBTW7JDu5NQKCAWNU4Nm2eqWTyAiimQxb5juWbUcbRPFSJuFkdSS2ejKSfx3Uuug0_0x-UysgbPS_Zo7A$ Improved versions of a paper may be submitted at any point before the submission deadline using the same web interface. Supplementary material: Authors have the option to attach supplementary material to a submission, on the understanding that reviewers may choose not to look at it. This supplementary material should not be submitted as part of the main document; instead, it should be uploaded as a separate PDF document or tarball. Supplementary material should be uploaded at submission time, not by providing a URL in the paper that points to an external repository. Authors can distinguish between anonymised and non-anonymised supplementary material. Anonymised supplementary material will be visible to reviewers immediately; non-anonymised supplementary material will be revealed to reviewers only after they have submitted their review of the paper and learned the identity of the author(s). Resubmitted Papers: authors who submit a revised version of a paper that has previously been rejected by another conference have the option to attach an annotated copy of the reviews of their previous submission(s), explaining how they have addressed these previous reviews in the present submission. If a reviewer identifies him/herself as a reviewer of this previous submission and wishes to see how his/her comments have been addressed, the conference chair will communicate to this reviewer the annotated copy of his/her previous review. Otherwise, no reviewer will read the annotated copies of the previous reviews. Proceedings =========== Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Their authors will be required to choose one of the following options: - Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM a non-exclusive permission-to-publish license (and, optionally, licenses the work with a Creative Commons license); - Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM an exclusive permission-to-publish license; - Author transfers copyright of the work to ACM. For more information, please see ACM Copyright Policy (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/copyright-policy__;!!IBzWLUs!QIwi2Qfwj4t4dATcGNBTW7JDu5NQKCAWNU4Nm2eqWTyAiimQxb5juWbUcbRPFSJuFkdSS2ejKSfx3Uuug0_0x-UysgbhjzzRJg$ ) and ACM Author Rights (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://authors.acm.org/main.html__;!!IBzWLUs!QIwi2Qfwj4t4dATcGNBTW7JDu5NQKCAWNU4Nm2eqWTyAiimQxb5juWbUcbRPFSJuFkdSS2ejKSfx3Uuug0_0x-UysgbLrhgqCQ$ ). Accepted proposals for system demonstrations will be posted on the symposium website but not formally published in the proceedings. Publication date: The official publication date of accepted papers is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. Artefacts ========= Authors are encouraged to make auxiliary material (artefacts like source code, test data, etc.) available with their paper. Authors can opt to have these artefacts published alongside their paper in the ACM Digital Library (copyright of artefacts remains with the authors). Artefacts must be included as part of their submission to HotCRP and should consist of a .zip file containing the artefact materials, a README explaining the contents of the artefact and how it should be used, and a LICENSE file.

Work-in-progress research papers describing promising new ideas, with perhaps less maturity than full papers. Work-in-progress papers will be evaluated with an emphasis on novelty and the potential of new ideas instead of technical rigor and experimental results. Format: up to 6 pages, excluding bibliography and appendix 3. Industry and tool papers presenting technical challenges and solutions for managed language platforms in the context of deployed applications and systems. Industry and tool papers will be evaluated on their relevance, usefulness, and results. Suitability for demonstration and availability will also be considered for tool papers. Format: up to 6 pages, excluding bibliography and appendix 4. Posters and Demonstrations They will be evaluated similarly to work-in-progress papers. Posters can accompany any submission as a way to provide additional demonstration and discussion opportunities. Format: poster and 1-page abstract Accepted submissions will be published in the ACM Digital Library, except if the authors prefer not to be included.

Established in 1984, the mission of the conference is to support the design, theory, application, and evaluation of computing technologies and languages for programming, modeling, and communicating, which are easier to learn, use, and understand by people. The 2023 symposium is scheduled to take place October 2-6 in Washington, DC, USA. VL/HCC 2023 is 100% Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing (TCMC). SCOPE AND TOPICS We solicit original, unpublished research papers on computing technologies for modeling, programming, communicating, and reasoning, which are easier to learn, use or understand by humans than the current state-of-the-art. Papers should focus on efforts to design, formalize, implement, or evaluate those technologies and languages. This includes technologies intended for general audiences (e.g., professional or novice programmers, or the public) or domain-specific audiences (e.g., people working in business administration, production environments, healthcare, urban design or scientific domains). Empirical papers that validate current proposed solutions with rigorous scientific means (i.e., empirical studies, controlled experiments, rigorous case studies, etc.) are also welcome. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Visual languages: Novel visual languages, Design, evaluation, and theory of visual languages and applications, Development of systems for manipulating and interacting with diagrammatic representations - Human aspects and psychology of software development and language design, such as supporting inclusion and diversity in programming - End-user development: End-user development, adaptation and programming, Creation and evaluation of technologies and infrastructures for end-user development - Crowdsourcing design and development work - Representations: Novel representations and user interfaces for expressing computation, Software, algorithm and data visualization - Modeling: Model-driven development, Domain-specific languages, including modeling languages, Visual modeling of human behavior and socio-technical systems - Thinking more deeply about code: Computational thinking and Computer Science education, Debugging and program understanding, Explainable ML/AI If you are not sure if your paper is a good fit for VL/HCC, feel free to email the PC Co-chairs (see ?Contact? below). We welcome those new to the VL/HCC community to submit! SPECIAL EMPHASIS FOR 2023: Low-Code / No-Code Development This year?s special topic is ?Low-Code / No-Code Development?. This development paradigm enables the creation and deployment of fully functional applications using visual abstractions and interfaces and requiring little or no procedural code. This way, users are empowered to create software applications for constrained domains, even if they lack a programming background. This year, we especially welcome papers at VL/HCC that design, build, or evaluate any aspects of low-code and no-code solutions. PAPER SUBMISSIONS We invite two kinds of papers: - full-length research papers, up to 8 pages - plus unlimited additional pages containing only references and/or acknowledgements - short research papers, up to 4 pages - plus unlimited additional pages containing only references and/or acknowledgements Papers must be submitted using the IEEE two-column conference paper format. Be sure to use the current IEEE conference paper format (which was updated in 2019), and to select the ?US letter? template: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html__;!!IBzWLUs!V5J9dUqlrXg1mmKqKgYEQmuFSAT9zBXQ2Rlv_0CCcFK8A383IekF8RSNnQjckE6yiB9lVMYQMSMdOFKrOeuf03LsoHYKGQ$ Papers should be submitted via the EasyChair system ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vlhcc2023__;!!IBzWLUs!V5J9dUqlrXg1mmKqKgYEQmuFSAT9zBXQ2Rlv_0CCcFK8A383IekF8RSNnQjckE6yiB9lVMYQMSMdOFKrOeuf03IIfCi6hw$ ). To facilitate the assigning of papers to reviewers, we require paper abstracts to be submitted via EasyChair at least 1 week prior to the paper submission deadline (see Important Dates below). The abstract must be kept up to date such that it matches exactly the abstract in the submitted paper. The abstract must be no longer than 250 words. All accepted papers, whether full or short, should be complete, self-contained, archival contributions. Contributions from full papers are more extensive than those from short papers. Note that some full paper submissions may be accepted as short papers if reviewers deem contributions to be comparable in size to a short paper. Work-in-progress, which has not yet yielded an archival contribution, should be submitted to the Posters/Showpieces category. All submissions will be reviewed by members of the Program Committee in a double-blind review process. Authors will then receive the reviews for their submissions and will be able to answer them in a rebuttal phase. Only after this step the PC will make a final decision about the acceptance of the submissions. Submissions and reviews for the technical program are managed with EasyChair. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register for VL/HCC 2023 and present the paper at the conference. There will be a virtual presentation option in case of travel restrictions. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference, including IEEE Xplore Digital Library, if the paper is not presented by the author at the conference. The proceedings of IEEE VL/HCC are published in digital form by the IEEE Computer Science Society and archived in the IEEE Digital Library with an official ISBN number. Accepted papers will be available to conference attendees via the IEEE Open Preview program in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!V5J9dUqlrXg1mmKqKgYEQmuFSAT9zBXQ2Rlv_0CCcFK8A383IekF8RSNnQjckE6yiB9lVMYQMSMdOFKrOeuf03KB_oIznQ$ ). DOUBLE-BLIND REVIEWING We follow a double-blind reviewing process. Both authors and reviewers are expected to make every effort to honor the double-blind reviewing process. In case of questions, please contact the Program Chairs. Authors should ensure that the submission can be evaluated without it being obvious who wrote the paper. This means leaving author names off the paper and using terms like ?previous research? rather than ?our previous research? when describing background. However, do not hide previous work ? papers must still reference all relevant research using full (non-anonymized) citations, including the author?s own prior work, so that reviewers can evaluate novelty. Please reference your own prior work in the third-person just like you would do for any other related work (e.g., avoid ?As described in our previous work [10], ? ? and instead write something like ?As described by [10], ??). It is also important that authors specify all conflicts of interest with potential reviewers during the submission phase. Reviewers should not undertake any investigation that might lead to the revealing of authors? identity. If identities are inadvertently revealed, please contact the Program Chairs. The Program Chairs will check all submissions for obvious signs of lack of anonymity and may ask authors to make changes and resubmit the paper within three days of the submission deadline. Only changes to resolve anonymity issues will be permitted. EVALUATION AND JUSTIFICATION Papers are expected to support their claims with appropriate evidence. For example, a paper that claims to improve programmer productivity is expected to demonstrate improved productivity; a paper that claims to be easier to use should demonstrate increased ease of use. However, not all claims necessarily need to be supported with empirical evidence or studies with people. For example, a paper that claims to make something feasible that was clearly infeasible might substantiate its claim through the existence of a functioning prototype. Moreover, there are many alternatives to empirical evidence that may be appropriate for justifying claims, including analytical methods, formal arguments or case studies. Given this criterion, we encourage potential authors to think carefully about what claims their submission makes and what evidence would adequately support these claims. In addition, we expect short papers to have less comprehensive evaluation than long papers.

The workshop welcomes contributions spanning the spectrum from theoretical models to practical implementations and empirical studies. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Formal semantics * Process algebras and calculi * Models and languages * Protocols * Logics and types * Expressiveness * Model transformations * Tools, implementations, and experiments * Specification and verification * Coinductive techniques * Tools and techniques for automation * Synthesis techniques Prospective authors are welcome to contact the chairs for advice on whether their proposed submission is in scope. === SELECTION PROCEDURE === Since its first edition in 2008, the distinguishing feature of ICE has been an innovative paper selection mechanism based on an interactive, friendly, and constructive discussion amongst authors and PC members in an online forum. During the review phase, each submission is published in a dedicated discussion forum. The discussion forum can be accessed by the authors of the submission and by all PC members not in conflict with the submission (the forum preserves anonymity). The forum is used by reviewers to ask questions, clarifications, and modifications from the authors, allowing them better to explain and to improve all aspects of their submission. The evaluation of the submission will take into account not only the reviews, but also the outcome of the discussion. As witnessed by the past editions of ICE, this procedure considerably improves the accuracy of the reviews, the fairness of the selection, the quality of camera-ready papers, and the discussion during the workshop. ICE adopts a light double-blind reviewing process, detailed below. === SUBMISSION GUIDELINES === Submissions must be made electronically in PDF format via OpenReview: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://openreview.net/group?id=DisCoTec.org*2023*Workshop*ICE__;Ly8v!!IBzWLUs!X3q2jzJcfqhJpySNoVP_12j6W7Th5BTWW9smf4KxOQZVYCHtm7Yemilzhzpqc93oET3eZXUyb28DW_LVyv-AKOlSoHZZvfz_BUGdD8jj3YE$ We invite two types of submissions: * Research papers: original contributions that will be published in the workshop post-proceedings. Research papers must not be simultaneously submitted to other conferences or workshops with refereed proceedings. Research papers should be 3-16 pages (references not included). Short research papers are welcome; for example a 5 page short paper fits this category perfectly. The submitted PDF can use any LaTeX style (but the post-proceedings will use the EPTCS style). * Oral communications: will be presented at the workshop, but will not appear in the post-proceedings. This type of contribution includes e.g. previously published contributions, preliminary work, and position papers. There is no strict page limit for this kind of submission but papers of 1-5 pages would be appreciated. For example, a one page summary of previously published work is welcome in this category. Authors of research papers must omit their names and institutions from the title page, they should refer to their other work in the third person and omit acknowledgements that could reveal their identity or affiliation. The purpose is to avoid any bias based on authors? identity characteristics, such as gender, seniority, or nationality, in the review process. Our goal is to facilitate an unbiased approach to reviewing by supporting reviewers? access to works that do not carry obvious references to the authors? identities. As mentioned above, this is a lightweight double-blind process. Anonymization should not be a heavy burden for authors, and should not make papers weaker or more difficult to review. Advertising the paper on alternate forums (e.g., on a personal web-page, pre-print archive, email, talks, discussions with colleagues) is permitted, and authors will not be penalized by for such advertisement. Papers in the ?Oral communications? category need not be anonymized. For any questions concerning the double blind process, feel free to consult the ICEcreamers. We are keen to enhance the balanced, inclusive and diverse nature of the ICE community, and would particularly encourage female colleagues and members of other underrepresented groups to submit their work. === PUBLICATIONS === Accepted research papers and communications must be presented at the workshop by one of the authors. Accepted research papers will be published after the workshop in Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science. We plan to invite authors of selected papers and brief announcements to submit their work in a special issue in the Journal of Logical and Algebraic Methods in Programming (Elsevier). Such contributions will be peer-reviewed according to the standard journal policy, but they will be handled in a shorter time than regular submissions. A list of published and in preparation special issues of previous ICE editions is reported on the ICE website. === ICECREAMERS (PC co-chairs) === * Cl?ment Aubert (Augusta University, USA) - aubert at math.cnrs.fr * Cinzia Di Giusto (Universit?

Prof. Emil Sekerinski (McMaster University, Canada) will lecture on Teaching Concurrent Programming on Friday, March 31, 2023 at 3 pm CEST. An abstract for his talk comes below: The education in programming has in a certain sense deteriorated since the 80?s and 90?s: programming languages and environments, as common in industry and to which students are exposed in Computer Science, Software Engineering, and related programs, have become complex. Mastering them consumes students to an extent that courses cannot decouple the (timeless) principles of programming from the (short-lived) specifics of the programming environments at hand; the mathematical background on program design is often not taught. This is particularly critical for concurrent programming, which has become increasingly relevant but cannot be mastered without a theoretical background. The author has been developing course material for a required 3rd year Software Engineering course at McMaster University, Concurrent System Design with around 170 students, since 2018 to address that issue by web-based interactive notebooks using Jupyter that combine explanations, the mathematical theory, and execution of programs directly in the notebooks. Correctness reasoning, including non-interference of processes, is explained through hierarchical state diagrams. This talk gives an overview of the course material, which is available as an open educational resource, and reports on the experience. More information about our lecturer can be found here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.cas.mcmaster.ca/*emil/__;fg!!IBzWLUs!QkvrxcjSSJu9cqPpA1UUnn5To4BIWtEBuvXYqwq1rwiRSeWTf6aON7jUg1wDQnHjWlIX1fwsME1MGAic5wK3_yOx6C8K8TIWjMut$ .

FMCAD provides a leading forum to researchers in academia and industry for presenting and discussing groundbreaking methods, technologies, theoretical results, and tools for reasoning formally about computing systems. FMCAD covers formal aspects of computer-aided system design including verification, specification, synthesis, and testing. FMCAD employs a rigorous peer-review process. Accepted papers are published by TU Wien Academic Press under a Creative Commons license (the authors retain the copyright) and distributed through the IEEE XPlore digital library. There are no publication fees. At least one of the authors is required to register for the conference and present the accepted paper. TOPICS OF INTEREST ------------------ FMCAD welcomes submission of papers reporting original research on advances in all aspects of formal methods and their applications to computer- aided design. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): - Model checking, theorem proving, equivalence checking, abstraction and reduction, compositional methods, decision procedures at the bit- and word-level, probabilistic methods, combinations of deductive methods and decision procedures. - Synthesis and compilation for computer system descriptions, modeling, specification, and implementation languages, formal semantics of languages and their subsets, model-based design, design derivation and transformation, correct-by-construction methods. - Application of formal and semi-formal methods to functional and non-functional specification and validation of hardware and software, including timing and power modeling, verification of computing systems on all levels of abstraction, system-level design and verification for embedded systems, cyber-physical systems, automotive systems and other safety-critical systems, hardware-software co-design and verification, and transaction-level verification. - Experience with the application of formal and semi-formal methods to industrial-scale designs; tools that represent formal verification enablement, new features, or a substantial improvement in the automation of formal methods. - Application of formal methods to verifying safety, connectivity and security properties of networks, distributed systems, smart contracts, block chains, and IoT devices. SUBMISSIONS ----------- Submissions must be made electronically in PDF format via CMT: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/fmcad2023/__;!!IBzWLUs!WeJne80Jbh_zO-PBQbAmp-Qr0mt45IRk4iKW7Jg1kmWOXok-eXEOptELDenEbsDYFu2Dbw9jvKo0R-8HcMV1w4Uqq7LgCHuAjtWv0I8T$ Two categories of papers are invited: Regular papers, and Tool & Case Study papers. Regular papers are expected to offer novel foundational ideas, theoretical results, or algorithmic improvements to existing methods, along with experimental impact validation where applicable. Tool & Case Study papers are expected to report on the design, implementation or use of verification (or related) technology in a practically relevant context (which need not be industrial), and its impact on design processes. Both Regular and Tool & Case study papers must use the IEEE Transactions format on letter-size paper with a 10-point font size. Papers in both categories can be either 8 pages (long) or 4 pages (short) in length not including references. Short papers that describe emerging results, practical experiences, or original ideas that can be described succinctly are encouraged. Authors will be required to select an appropriate paper category at abstract submission time. Submissions may contain an optional appendix, which will not appear in the final version of the paper. The reviewers should be able to assess the quality and the relevance of the results in the paper without reading the appendix. Submissions in both categories must contain original research that has not been previously published, nor is concurrently submitted for publication. Any partial overlap with published or concurrently submitted papers must be clearly indicated. If experimental results are reported, authors are strongly encouraged to provide the reviewers access to their data at submission time, so that results can be independently verified. The review process is single blind. Authors of accepted contributions will be required to sign the FMCAD copyright transfer form found here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://fmcad.or.at/pdf/copyright.pdf__;!!IBzWLUs!WeJne80Jbh_zO-PBQbAmp-Qr0mt45IRk4iKW7Jg1kmWOXok-eXEOptELDenEbsDYFu2Dbw9jvKo0R-8HcMV1w4Uqq7LgCHuAjkNXTveH$ . STUDENT FORUM ------------- Continuing the tradition of the previous years, FMCAD 2023 is hosting a Student Forum that provides a platform for graduate students at any career stage to introduce their research to the wider Formal Methods community, and solicit feedback. Submissions for the event must be short reports describing research ideas or ongoing work that the student is currently pursuing, and must be within the scope of FMCAD. Work, part of which has been previously published, will be considered; the novel aspect to be addressed in future work must be clearly described in such cases. All submissions will be reviewed by a select group of FMCAD program committee members.

It will be *informal*, consisting of contributed talks on work in progress, and open-ended discussion sessions. ---------------------- Call for Talk Proposals ----------------------- We solicit proposals for contributed talks. We recommend preparing proposals of at most 2 pages excluding references, in either plain text or PDF format. However, we will accept longer proposals or submissions to other conferences, under the understanding that PC members are only expected to read the first two pages of such longer submissions. When submitting talk proposals, authors should specify how long a talk the speaker wishes to give. By default, contributed talks will be 30 minutes long, but proposals for shorter or longer talks will also be considered. Speakers may also submit supplementary material (e.g. a full paper, talk slides) if they desire, which PC members are free (but not expected) to read. We are interested in talks on all topics related to the interaction of higher-order programming and computational effects. Talks about work in progress are particularly encouraged. If you have any questions about the relevance of a particular topic, please contact the PC chairs, Daniel Hillerstr?m (daniel.hillerstrom at ed.ac.uk) and Max S. New (maxsnew at umich.edu).

New (co-chair) (University of Michigan) Shin-ya Katsumata (National Institute of Informatics) --------------------- Goals of the Workshop --------------------- A recurring theme in the research of many ICFP attendees, is the interaction of higher-order programming with various kinds of effects: storage effects, I/O, control effects, concurrency, etc. While effects are of critical importance in many applications, they also make it hard to build, maintain, and reason about one's code. Higher-order languages (both functional and object-oriented) provide a variety of abstraction mechanisms to help "tame" or "encapsulate" effects (e.g. monads, ADTs, ownership types, typestate, first-class events, transactions, Hoare Type Theory, session types, substructural and region-based type systems), and a number of different semantic models and verification technologies have been developed in order to codify and exploit the benefits of this encapsulation (e.g. bisimulations, step-indexed Kripke logical relations, higher-order separation logic, game semantics, various modal logics). But there remain many open problems, and the field is highly active. The goal of the HOPE workshop is to bring researchers from a variety of different backgrounds and perspectives together to exchange new and exciting ideas concerning the design, semantics, implementation, and verification of higher-order effectful programs. We want HOPE to be as informal and interactive as possible. The program will thus involve a combination of invited talks, contributed talks about work in progress, and open-ended discussion sessions. There will be no published proceedings, but participants will be invited to submit working documents, talk slides, etc. to be posted on this website.

Their design, implementation and their use in reasoning tasks, ranging from the correctness of software to the properties of formal systems, have been the focus of considerable research over the last two decades. This workshop will bring together designers, implementors and practitioners to discuss various aspects impinging on the structure and utility of logical frameworks, including the treatment of variable binding, inductive and co-inductive reasoning techniques and the expressiveness and lucidity of the reasoning process. LFMTP 2023 will provide researchers a forum to present state-of-the-art techniques and discuss progress in areas such as the following: * Encoding and reasoning about the meta-theory of programming languages, logical systems and related formally specified systems. * Theoretical and practical issues concerning the treatment of variable binding, especially the representation of, and reasoning about, datatypes defined from binding signatures. * Logical treatments of inductive and co-inductive definitions and associated reasoning techniques, including inductive types of higher dimension in homotopy type theory. * Graphical languages for building proofs, applications in geometry, equational reasoning and category theory. * New theory contributions: canonical and substructural frameworks, contextual frameworks, proof-theoretic foundations supporting binders, functional programming over logical frameworks, homotopy and cubical type theory. * Applications of logical frameworks: proof-carrying architectures, proof exchange and transformation, program refactoring, etc. * Techniques for programming with binders in functional programming languages such as Haskell, OCaml or Agda, and logic programming languages such as lambda Prolog or Alpha-Prolog. The workshop's program will include contributed and invited talks. We hope that LFMTP takes place physically in Rome, but online participation will be possible and may even be necessary. ## Important Dates Abstract submission deadline: April 10 Paper submission deadline: April 20 Notification to authors: May 20 ## Submission Submit on EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lfmtp23__;!!IBzWLUs!WijlnDHxireQPAptjL3kx30kZPHdkUxtjymFHtpIV7KeSAZ8j6kdpN3xptDwFWWtIOPkJfoJ9GCIuMxtxg5fBkYcwFNrH9zIUJliJQ$ All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.

Co-located with ICFP, this workshop brings together leading researchers and practitioners who are using or exploring types as a means of program development. We welcome all contributions, both theoretical and practical, on a range of topics including: - dependently typed programming; - generic programming; - design and implementation of programming languages, exploiting types in novel ways; - exploiting typed data, data dependent data, or type providers; - static and dynamic analyses of typed programs; - tools, IDEs, or testing tools exploiting type information; - pearls, being elegant, instructive examples of types used in the derivation, calculation, or construction of programs. # Proceedings and Copyright We will have formal proceedings, published by the ACM. Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Authors must grant ACM publication rights upon acceptance, but may retain copyright if they wish. Authors are encouraged to publish auxiliary material with their paper (source code, test data, and so forth). The proceedings will be freely available for download from the ACM Digital Library from one week before the start of the conference until two weeks after the conference. The official publication date is the date the papers are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. # Submission Details Submissions should fall into one of two categories: - regular research papers (12 pages); - extended abstracts (3 pages). The bibliography will not be counted against the page limits for either category. Regular research papers are expected to present novel and interesting research results, and will be included in the formal proceedings. Extended abstracts should report work in progress that the authors would like to present at the workshop. Extended abstracts will be distributed to workshop attendees but will not be published in the formal proceedings.

Onward! is a premier multidisciplinary conference focused on everything to do with programming and software: including processes, methods, languages, communities and applications. Onward! is more radical, more visionary and more open than other conferences to ideas that are well-argued but not yet fully proven. We welcome different ways of thinking about, approaching and reporting on programming language and software engineering research. ### Onward! Papers Onward! Papers is looking for grand visions and new paradigms that could make a big difference in how we will one day build software. But it is not looking for research-as-usual papers; conferences like OOPSLA are the place for that. Those conferences require rigorous validation such as theorems or empirical experiments, which are necessary for scientific progress, but which typically preclude discussion of early-stage ideas. Onward! papers must also supply some degree of validation because mere speculation is not a good basis for progress. However, Onward! accepts less rigorous methods of validation such as compelling arguments, exploratory implementations, and substantial examples. The use of worked-out examples to support new ideas is strongly encouraged. ### Onward! Essays Onward! Essays is looking for clear and compelling pieces of writing about topics important to the software community. An essay can be long or short. An essay can be an exploration of the topic and its impact, or a story about the circumstances of its creation; it can present a personal view of what is, explore a terrain, or lead the reader in an act of discovery; it can be a philosophical digression or a deep analysis. It can describe a personal journey, perhaps the one the author took to reach an understanding of the topic. The subject area?software, programming, and programming languages?should be interpreted broadly and can include the relationship of software to human endeavors, or its philosophical, sociological, psychological, historical, or anthropological underpinnings.

RM is concerned with the runtime analysis of software and hardware system executions in order to infer properties relating to system behaviour. Example applications include telemetry, log aggregation, threshold alerting, performance monitoring and adherence to correctness properties (more commonly referred to as Runtime Verification). RM has gained popularity as a solution to ensure software reliability, bridging the gap between formal verification and testing: on the one hand, the notion of event trace abstracts over system executions, thus favoring system agnosticism to better support reuse and interoperability; on the other hand, monitoring a system offers more opportunities for addressing error recovery, self-adaptation, and issues that go beyond software reliability. The goal of VORTEX is to bring together researchers contributing on all aspects of RM covering and possibly integrating both theoretical and practical aspects, with particular focus on hybrid approaches inspired by formal methods, program analysis, testing. Call for Papers --------------- Submissions are expected to be in English and to belong to one of the following two categories: * regular paper, page limit 8 in acmart sigconf style: unpublished self-contained work * extended abstract, page limit 4 in acmart sigconf style: original contribution, not yet fully developed Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following ones: * monitor construction and synthesis techniques * program adaptation * monitoring oriented programming * runtime enforcement, fault detection, recovery and repair * combination of static and dynamic analyses * specification formalisms for RM * specification mining * monitoring concurrent/distributed systems * RM for safety and security * RM for the Internet of Things * industrial applications * integrating RM, formal verification, and testing * tool development * instrumentation techniques for RM * surveys on different RM tools, formal frameworks or methodologies * presentations of RM tools * techniques to increase coverage of RM, as concolic execution Papers must be submitted electronically via EasyChair (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=vortex2023__;!!IBzWLUs!UnSum-s9eGFPh2hBwdOUKialGnHeaT293XsngCmNrdW_6Lw8M0dJtXUgr7FAXkKoEymxVdfNLJjTw6rQA9RQF3iY9aBTKuTaBOiEsOg$ ); the submission deadline is April 30 AoE.

It is affiliated with CADE 2023 and will be held on July 5th-6th, 2023, in Rome, Italy. The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers and users of SMT tools and techniques. Relevant topics include but are not limited to: * Decision procedures and theories of interest * Combinations of decision procedures * Novel implementation techniques * Benchmarks and evaluation methodologies * Applications and case studies * Theoretical results Papers on pragmatic aspects of implementing and using SMT tools, as well as novel applications of SMT, are especially encouraged. == Submission Guidelines Three categories of submissions are invited: 1. Extended abstracts: given the informal style of the workshop, we strongly encourage the submission of preliminary reports of work in progress. They may range in length from very short (a couple of pages) to the full 10 pages and they will be judged based on the expected level of interest for the SMT community. They will be included in the informal proceedings. 2. Original papers: contain original research (simultaneous submissions are not allowed) and sufficient detail to assess the merits and relevance of the submission. For papers reporting experimental results, authors are strongly encouraged to make their data available. 3. Presentation-only papers: describe work recently published or submitted and will not be included in the proceedings. We see this as a way to provide additional access to important developments that SMT Workshop attendees may be unaware of. Papers in all three categories will be peer-reviewed. Papers should not exceed 10 pages and should be in standard-conforming PDF. The 10 page limit does not include references, and technical details may be included in an appendix to be read at the reviewers' discretion. Final versions should be prepared in LaTeX using the easychair.cls class file. To submit a paper, go to the EasyChair SMT 2023 submission page and follow the instructions there. == Invited Speakers Mike Whalen, Amazon Oded Padon, VMware Research == Program Chairs St?phane Graham-Lengrand, SRI International Mathias Preiner, Stanford University == Program Committee Leonardo Alt, Ethereum Foundation Clark Barrett, Stanford University Fran?ois Bobot, CEA Martin Brain, City, University of London Simon Cruanes, Imandra Rayna Dimitrova, CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security Bruno Dutertre, Amazon Web Services Katalin Fazekas, TU Wien Jochen Hoenicke, Certora Antti Hyv?rinen, Certora Ahmed Irfan, SRI International Mikolas Janota, Czech Technical University in Prague Martin Jonas, Masaryk University, Czech Republic Daniela Kaufmann , TU Wien Aina Niemetz, Stanford University Andres Noetzli, Cubist Inc.

Sorbonne Paris Nord, FR) ================================================================== * * ++ SCOPE AND TOPICS Concurrency and Logics are two of the most active research areas in the theoretical computer science domain. The literature in these fields is extensive and provides a plethora of logics and models for reasoning about intelligent and distributed systems. More recently, the interplay of concurrency and logic with areas such as: * * 1. design, verification, synthesis for concurrent systems, both qualitative and quantitative; 2. strategic reasoning for distributed and multi-agent systems; 3. analysis and validation techniques for concurrent and distributed programs, such as advanced type systems and separation logics; * * has received much attention, as witnessed by recent editions of AI conferences. All these examples share the challenge of developing novel theories and tools for automated reasoning that take into account the behavior of concurrent and multi-agent entities. * * The workshop aims to bring together researchers working on different aspects of logic and concurrency in AI, multi-agent systems, and computer science, both from a theoretical and a practical point of view. Besides, it aims to promote research on Foundation of AI in other research communities that are traditionally Theoretical Computer Science-oriented. * * The topics covered by the workshop include, but are not limited to, the following: Concurrency Theory; Programming languages and semantics; Formal models for communication-based, concurrent and distributed systems; Logics in concurrency; Logics for verification of (concurrent) multi-agent systems; Logical foundations of decision theory for multi-agent systems; Knowledge representation; Programming languages; * * ++ SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Submitted contributions should not exceed 2 pages (not including references) using the EasyChair format. Submitted papers should be formatted in PDF and uploaded to * * https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=radical2023__;!!IBzWLUs!S9Akbmm-3X2CrubrYEhmh7-dlS4Vycy_pMhrQK3877gjawVmEgyoesuSKEaZDFtqgTjBOxO2vhgpsNal8sjIhnroRJjomR5XHrQR$ * * We invite submissions describing talk proposals on the intersection of logic and concurrency. A submission to RADICAL would typically fall within one of the following categories: * * reports of an ongoing work and/or preliminary results; summaries of an already published paper (or series of papers); overviews of (recent) PhD theses; descriptions of research projects and consortia; manifestos, calls to action, personal views on current and future challenges; overviews of interesting yet underrepresented problems. * * This list is by no means exhaustive but merely indicative. * * Submissions based on already published works should include explicit references/links as appropriate. Reviewers may read such prior published works, but are not obliged to do so. * * Submissions will be judged by the program committee on the basis of significance, relevance, and potential of an engaging, compelling talk at the workshop. * * Submission from PC members is encouraged. * * It is understood that for each accepted submission one of the co-authors will attend the workshop and give the talk. * * No Proceedings: RADICAL will be an informal venue, oriented to interaction, so there will be no formal proceedings. * * ++ IMPORTANT DATES ** Submission deadline: 30 June 2023. ** Notification to authors: 28 July 2023. ** Workshop: 18th September 2023, in Antwerp (Belgium). * * ++ WORKSHOP CO-CHAIRS Giuseppe Perelli (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy) Jorge A.

Their design, implementation and their use in reasoning tasks, ranging from the correctness of software to the properties of formal systems, have been the focus of considerable research over the last two decades. This workshop will bring together designers, implementors and practitioners to discuss various aspects impinging on the structure and utility of logical frameworks, including the treatment of variable binding, inductive and co-inductive reasoning techniques and the expressiveness and lucidity of the reasoning process. LFMTP 2023 will provide researchers a forum to present state-of-the-art techniques and discuss progress in areas such as the following: * Encoding and reasoning about the meta-theory of programming languages, logical systems and related formally specified systems. * Theoretical and practical issues concerning the treatment of variable binding, especially the representation of, and reasoning about, datatypes defined from binding signatures. * Logical treatments of inductive and co-inductive definitions and associated reasoning techniques, including inductive types of higher dimension in homotopy type theory. * Graphical languages for building proofs, applications in geometry, equational reasoning and category theory. * New theory contributions: canonical and substructural frameworks, contextual frameworks, proof-theoretic foundations supporting binders, functional programming over logical frameworks, homotopy and cubical type theory. * Applications of logical frameworks: proof-carrying architectures, proof exchange and transformation, program refactoring, etc. * Techniques for programming with binders in functional programming languages such as Haskell, OCaml or Agda, and logic programming languages such as lambda Prolog or Alpha-Prolog. The workshop's program will include contributed and invited talks. We hope that LFMTP takes place physically in Rome, but online participation will be possible and may even be necessary. ## Important Dates Abstract submission deadline: *Extended* April 20 (AoE) Paper submission deadline: *Extended* April 27 (AoE) Notification to authors: May 26 ## Submission Submit on EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lfmtp23__;!!IBzWLUs!X2UBQiK-V9nj7rsgZ_tW_OxybkoKr5lBHH1fxNWSBl58xOkHvB5Cd8aJxTTC2ygyx49iMmNeaQ1MK4w7eqiXaHhkj0VvGgHSdx6drw$ All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.

This is a bilingual Farsi-English workshop, and is open to any researcher working in the field. In particular, participants do not need to be fluent in both languages to attend. Though not explicitly mentioned in the call, type-theoretic approaches are a perfect fit for the event. --- *Algebra, Categories and Logic in Computing* *?????? ???? ???? ?? ? ???? ?? ???? ????????* Algebra, category theory and logic have traditionally played an important role in our understanding of computing. Recently, there has been a surge in new ways of understanding how these disciplines can help in tackling challenges in the theory and applications of computing. Examples are: combining machine learning and proof-theoretic approaches to natural language; reasoning about multi-agent systems; developing programming languages and compositional models; and specifying and analyzing systems and protocols. The aim of this workshop is to bring together both leading and upcoming researchers who use such approaches, with the goal of promoting collaborations across the different disciplines. This workshop is the first event in a program aimed at offering Farsi-speaking mathematicians ? as well as any mathematician interested in building cross-cultural connections ? opportunities to build a network and receive mentoring from leading Farsi-speaking mathematicians. The workshop will be held in a bilingual Farsi-English setting, and participants do not need to be fluent in both languages to attend. *Invited speakers / mentors*: Farhad Arbab (Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica, Amsterdam), Mehdi Dastani (Utrecht University) and Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh (University College London). Funding: expenses will be paid for everyone: bed and board is included, as well as travel expenses for an average of 300 euros per person. Deadline for applications: 25 April 2023 Location: St Erme, France Dates: 20-21 June 2023, with arrival on the 19th and departure on the 22nd.

These two traditions are studied by almost disjoint research communities using almost disjoint technical languages and methods. We believe that bringing these communities and research fields together is an important objective in Computer Science, which may hold the key to fundamental advances in the field. The aim of this workshop is to attract investigators at the boundary of the two strands, and those on either side of the divide interested in establishing new connections. Previous workshops on this theme were held as affiliated workshops of LiCS 2021 and ICALP 2022. This is a LiCS 2023 affiliated workshop.

We invite submissions covering any aspect of programming, systems, languages and applications. The goal of the poster session is to encourage and facilitate small groups of individuals interested in a technical area to gather and interact. **** SPLASH-E **** SPLASH-E is a symposium for software and languages (SE/PL) researchers with activities and interests around computing education. Some build pedagogically-oriented languages or tools; some think about pedagogic challenges around SE/PL courses; some bring computing to non-CS communities; some pursue human studies and educational research. At SPLASH-E, we share our educational ideas and challenges centered in software/languages, as well as our best ideas for advancing such work. ** Student Research Competition (SRC) ** The ACM Student Research Competition (SRC) offers a unique opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to present their research to a panel of judges and conference attendees at SPLASH. The SRC provides visibility and exposes up-and-coming researchers to computer science research and the research community. This competition also gives students an opportunity to discuss their research with experts in their field, get feedback, and sharpen their communication and networking skills. ** Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop (PLMW) ** The SPLASH Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop encourages graduate students (PhD and MSc) and senior undergraduate students to pursue research in programming languages. This workshop will provide mentoring sessions on how to prepare for and thrive in graduate school and in a research career, focusing both on cutting-edge research topics and practical advice. The workshop brings together leading researchers and junior students in an inclusive environment in order to help welcome newcomers to our field of programming languages research. The workshop will show students the many paths that they might take to enter and contribute to our research community. ** Workshops ** **** CONFLANG **** CONFLANG is a workshop on the design, the theory, the practice and the future evolution of configuration languages. It aims to gather the emerging community in this area in order to engage in fruitful interactions, to share ideas, results, opinions, and experiences on languages for configuration. Correct configuration is an actual industrial problem, and would greatly benefit from existing and ongoing academic research. Dually, this is a space with new challenges to overcome and new directions to explore, which is a great opportunity to confront new ideas with large-scale production. **** FTSCS **** The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers who are interested in the application of formal and semi-formal methods to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems. FTSCS strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in industrial applications of formal methods. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods for analyzing safety-critical systems, including avionics, automotive, medical, railway, and other kinds of safety-critical and QoS-critical systems; methods, techniques and tools to support automated analysis, certification, debugging, etc., of safety/QoS-critical systems; analysis methods that address the limitations of formal methods in industry (usability, scalability, etc.); formal analysis support for modeling languages used in industry, such as AADL, Ptolemy, SysML, SCADE, Modelica, etc.; code generation from validated models. The workshop will provide a platform for discussions and the exchange of innovative ideas, so submissions on work in progress are encouraged. **** HATRA **** Programming language designers seek to provide strong tools to help developers reason about their programs. For example, the formal methods community seeks to enable developers to prove correctness properties of their code, and type system designers seek to exclude classes of undesirable behavior from programs. The security community creates tools to help developers achieve their security goals. In order to make these approaches as effective as possible for developers, recent work has integrated approaches from human-computer interaction research into programming language design. This workshop brings together programming languages, software engineering, security, and human-computer interaction researchers to investigate methods for making languages that provide stronger safety properties more effective for programmers and software engineers. We have two goals: (1) to provide a venue for discussion and feedback on early-stage approaches that might enable people to be more effective at achieving stronger safety properties in their programs; (2) to facilitate discussion about relevant topics of participant interest. **** LIVE **** Programming is cognitively demanding, and too difficult. LIVE is a workshop exploring new user interfaces that improve the immediacy, usability, and learnability of programming. Whereas PL research traditionally focuses on programs, LIVE focuses more on the activity of programming. Our goal is to provide a supportive venue where early-stage work receives constructive criticism. Whether graduate students or tenured faculty, researchers need a forum to discuss new ideas and get helpful feedback from their peers. Towards that end, we will allot about ten minutes for discussion after every presentation. **** PAINT **** Programming environments that integrate tools, notations, and abstractions into a holistic user experience can provide programmers with better support for what they want to achieve. These programming environments can create an engaging place to do new forms of informational work - resulting in enjoyable, creative, and productive experiences with programming. In the workshop on Programming Abstractions and Interactive Notations, Tools, and Environments (PAINT), we want to discuss programming environments that support users in working with and creating notations and abstractions that matter to them. We are interested in the relationship between people centric notations and general-purpose programming languages and environments. How do we reflect the various experiences, needs, and priorities of the many people involved in programming -- whether they call it that or not? **** PLF **** Applications supporting multi-device are ubiquitous. While most of the distributed applications that we see nowadays are cloud-based, avoiding the cloud can lead to privacy and performance benefits for users and operational and cost benefits for companies and developers. Following this idea, Local-First Software runs and stores its data locally while still allowing collaboration, thus retaining the benefits of existing collaborative applications without depending on the cloud. Many specific solutions already exist: operational transformation, client-side databases with eventually consistent replication based on CRDTs, and even synchronization as a service provided by commercial offerings, and a vast selection of UI design libraries. However, these solutions are not integrated with the programming languages that applications are developed in. Language based solutions related to distribution such as type systems describing protocols, reliable actor runtimes, data processing, machine learning, etc., are designed and optimized for the cloud not for a loosely connected set of cooperating devices. This workshop aims at bringing the issue to the attention of the PL community, and accelerating the development of suitable solutions for this area. **** ST30 **** Session types are a type-theoretic approach to specifying communication protocols so that they can be verified by type-checking. This year marks 30 years since the first paper on session types, by Kohei Honda at CONCUR 1993. Since then the topic has attracted increasing interest, and a substantial community and literature have developed. Google Scholar lists almost 400 articles with "session types" in the title, and most programming language conferences now include several papers on session types each year. In terms of the technical focus, there have been continuing theoretical developments (notably the generalisation from two-party to multi-party session types by Honda, Yoshida and Carbone in 2008, and the development of a Curry-Howard correspondence with linear logic by Caires and Pfenning in 2010) and a variety of implementations of session types as programming language extensions or libraries, covering (among others) Haskell, OCaml, Java, Scala, Rust, Python, C#, Go. ST30 is a workshop to celebrate the 30th anniversary of session types by bringing together the community for a day of talks and technical discussion. ====================================================================== Be part of these fantastic events! ====================================================================== Organizing Committee General Chair: Vasco T.

Established in 1984, the mission of the conference is to support the design, theory, application, and evaluation of computing technologies and languages for programming, modeling, and communicating, which are easier to learn, use, and understand by people. The 2023 symposium is scheduled to take place October 2-6 in Washington, DC, USA. VL/HCC 2023 is 100% Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing (TCMC). SCOPE AND TOPICS We solicit original, unpublished research papers on computing technologies for modeling, programming, communicating, and reasoning, which are easier to learn, use or understand by humans than the current state-of-the-art. Papers should focus on efforts to design, formalize, implement, or evaluate those technologies and languages. This includes technologies intended for general audiences (e.g., professional or novice programmers, or the public) or domain-specific audiences (e.g., people working in business administration, production environments, healthcare, urban design or scientific domains). Empirical papers that validate current proposed solutions with rigorous scientific means (i.e., empirical studies, controlled experiments, rigorous case studies, etc.) are also welcome. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Visual languages: Novel visual languages, Design, evaluation, and theory of visual languages and applications, Development of systems for manipulating and interacting with diagrammatic representations - Human aspects and psychology of software development and language design, such as supporting inclusion and diversity in programming - End-user development: End-user development, adaptation and programming, Creation and evaluation of technologies and infrastructures for end-user development - Crowdsourcing design and development work - Representations: Novel representations and user interfaces for expressing computation, Software, algorithm and data visualization - Modeling: Model-driven development, Domain-specific languages, including modeling languages, Visual modeling of human behavior and socio-technical systems - Thinking more deeply about code: Computational thinking and Computer Science education, Debugging and program understanding, Explainable ML/AI If you are not sure if your paper is a good fit for VL/HCC, feel free to email the PC Co-chairs (see ?Contact? below). We welcome those new to the VL/HCC community to submit! SPECIAL EMPHASIS FOR 2023: Low-Code / No-Code Development This year?s special topic is ?Low-Code / No-Code Development?. This development paradigm enables the creation and deployment of fully functional applications using visual abstractions and interfaces and requiring little or no procedural code. This way, users are empowered to create software applications for constrained domains, even if they lack a programming background. This year, we especially welcome papers at VL/HCC that design, build, or evaluate any aspects of low-code and no-code solutions. PAPER SUBMISSIONS We invite two kinds of papers: - full-length research papers, up to 8 pages - plus unlimited additional pages containing only references and/or acknowledgements - short research papers, up to 4 pages - plus unlimited additional pages containing only references and/or acknowledgements Papers must be submitted using the IEEE two-column conference paper format. Be sure to use the current IEEE conference paper format (which was updated in 2019), and to select the ?US letter? template: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html__;!!IBzWLUs!W3K7gbj20CmUCXclNbdjbTr80gukp_LUzoOnFXbtP0W1JtegcyC2XPGtCAE9smZV0GeJZhTV5Z1uAVQEncg8I6G_t-ioYg$ Papers should be submitted via the EasyChair system ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vlhcc2023__;!!IBzWLUs!W3K7gbj20CmUCXclNbdjbTr80gukp_LUzoOnFXbtP0W1JtegcyC2XPGtCAE9smZV0GeJZhTV5Z1uAVQEncg8I6G1EWEklw$ ). To facilitate the assigning of papers to reviewers, we require paper abstracts to be submitted via EasyChair at least 1 week prior to the paper submission deadline (see Important Dates below). The abstract must be kept up to date such that it matches exactly the abstract in the submitted paper. The abstract must be no longer than 250 words. All accepted papers, whether full or short, should be complete, self-contained, archival contributions. Contributions from full papers are more extensive than those from short papers. Note that some full paper submissions may be accepted as short papers if reviewers deem contributions to be comparable in size to a short paper. Work-in-progress, which has not yet yielded an archival contribution, should be submitted to the Posters/Showpieces category. All submissions will be reviewed by members of the Program Committee in a double-blind review process. Authors will then receive the reviews for their submissions and will be able to answer them in a rebuttal phase. Only after this step the PC will make a final decision about the acceptance of the submissions. Submissions and reviews for the technical program are managed with EasyChair. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register for VL/HCC 2023 and present the paper at the conference. There will be a virtual presentation option in case of travel restrictions. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference, including IEEE Xplore Digital Library, if the paper is not presented by the author at the conference. The proceedings of IEEE VL/HCC are published in digital form by the IEEE Computer Science Society and archived in the IEEE Digital Library with an official ISBN number. Accepted papers will be available to conference attendees via the IEEE Open Preview program in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!W3K7gbj20CmUCXclNbdjbTr80gukp_LUzoOnFXbtP0W1JtegcyC2XPGtCAE9smZV0GeJZhTV5Z1uAVQEncg8I6HXGpSo9Q$ ). DOUBLE-BLIND REVIEWING We follow a double-blind reviewing process. Both authors and reviewers are expected to make every effort to honor the double-blind reviewing process. In case of questions, please contact the Program Chairs. Authors should ensure that the submission can be evaluated without it being obvious who wrote the paper. This means leaving author names off the paper and using terms like ?previous research? rather than ?our previous research? when describing background. However, do not hide previous work ? papers must still reference all relevant research using full (non-anonymized) citations, including the author?s own prior work, so that reviewers can evaluate novelty. Please reference your own prior work in the third-person just like you would do for any other related work (e.g., avoid ?As described in our previous work [10], ? ? and instead write something like ?As described by [10], ??). It is also important that authors specify all conflicts of interest with potential reviewers during the submission phase. Reviewers should not undertake any investigation that might lead to the revealing of authors? identity. If identities are inadvertently revealed, please contact the Program Chairs. The Program Chairs will check all submissions for obvious signs of lack of anonymity and may ask authors to make changes and resubmit the paper within three days of the submission deadline. Only changes to resolve anonymity issues will be permitted. EVALUATION AND JUSTIFICATION Papers are expected to support their claims with appropriate evidence. For example, a paper that claims to improve programmer productivity is expected to demonstrate improved productivity; a paper that claims to be easier to use should demonstrate increased ease of use. However, not all claims necessarily need to be supported with empirical evidence or studies with people. For example, a paper that claims to make something feasible that was clearly infeasible might substantiate its claim through the existence of a functioning prototype. Moreover, there are many alternatives to empirical evidence that may be appropriate for justifying claims, including analytical methods, formal arguments or case studies. Given this criterion, we encourage potential authors to think carefully about what claims their submission makes and what evidence would adequately support these claims. In addition, we expect short papers to have less comprehensive evaluation than long papers.

Please share, and submit your best papers, experience reports, and architectural pearls on large-scale functional programming! The submission deadline 1st June 2023. Best wishes, Mike Sperber and Graham Hutton Program Chairs, FUNARCH 2023 ====================================================================== *** FUNARCH 2023 -- CALL FOR PAPERS *** The First ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Functional Software Architecture - FP in the Large 8th September 2023, Seattle, Washington, USA Co-located with ICFP 2023 https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tinyurl.com/FUNARCH-23__;!!IBzWLUs!SLXZ2SAoZwo8TN1vmg4hYFNm4676rLofKEgSLqy9Zb5h5CSmEBWGWwT1A8GYIPk3ZqjUjA6MowHKbaj0p0wC8fkDv7Z8S1g_f6r_QeaSLaFI0g$ ====================================================================== TIMELINE: Paper submission 1st June 2023 Author notification 28th June 2023 Camera ready copy 18th July 2023 Workshop 8th Sept 2023 BACKGROUND: "Functional Software Architecture" refers to methods of construction and structure of large and long-lived software projects that are implemented in functional languages and released to real users, typically in industry. The goals for the workshop are: - To assemble a community interested in software architecture techniques and technologies specific to functional programming; - To identify, categorize, and document topics relevant to the field of functional software architecture; - To connect the functional programming community to the software architecture community to cross-pollinate between the two. The workshop follows on from the Functional Software Architecture open space that was held at ICFP 2022 in Slovenia. SCOPE: The workshop seeks submissions in a range of categories: - You're a member of the FP community and have thought about how to support programming in the large, for example by framing functional ideas in architectural terms or vice verse, comparing different languages in terms of their architectural capabilities, clarifying architectural roles played by formal methods, proof assistants and DSLs, or observing how functional concepts are used in other language and architecture communities. Great, submit a research paper! - You're a member of the architecture community, and have thought about how your discipline might help functional programmers, for example by applying domain-driven design, implementing hexagonal architecture, or designing self-contained systems. Excellent, submit a research paper! - You've worked on a large project using functional programming, and it's worked out well, or terribly, or a mix of both; bonus points for deriving architectural principles from your experience. Wonderful, submit an experience report! - You know a neat architectural idiom or pattern that may be useful to others developing large functional software systems. Fabulous, submit an architectural pearl! - You have something that doesn't fit the above categories, but that still relates to functional software architecture, such as something that can be written up, or that could be part of the workshop format like a panel debate or a fishbowl. Superb, submit to the open category! Research papers should explain their research contributions in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and relating it to previous work, and to other languages where appropriate. Experience reports and architectural pearls need not necessarily report original research results. The key criterion for such papers is that they make a contribution from which others can benefit. It is not enough simply to describe a large software system, or to present ideas that are specific to a particular system. Open category submissions that are not intended for publication are not required to follow the formatting guidelines, and can submit in PDF, word or plain text format as preferred. If you are unsure whether your contribution is suitable, or if you need any kind of help with your submission, please email the program chairs at . SUBMISSION: Papers must be submitted by 1st June 2023 using EasyChair, via the following link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tinyurl.com/FUNARCH23-submit__;!!IBzWLUs!SLXZ2SAoZwo8TN1vmg4hYFNm4676rLofKEgSLqy9Zb5h5CSmEBWGWwT1A8GYIPk3ZqjUjA6MowHKbaj0p0wC8fkDv7Z8S1g_f6r_QeYhmXhOdQ$ Formatting: submissions intended for publication must be in PDF format and follow the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines, using the acmart format and the sigplan sub-format. Please use the review option, as this enables line numbers for easy reference in reviews.

Length: submissions must adhere to the limits specified below. However, there is no requirement or expectation that all pages are used, and authors are encouraged to strive for brevity. Research papers 5 to 12+ pages Architectural pearls 5 to 12 pages Experience reports 3 to 6 pages Open category 1 to 6 pages Publication: The proceedings of FUNARCH 2023 will be published in the ACM Digital Library, and authors of accepted papers are required to agree to one of the standard ACM licensing options. Accepted papers must be presented at the workshop by one of the authors, but in special cases we may consider remote presentation. The official publication date is the date the papers are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work.

Reversible computing allows a program to execute both forward and backward, and it found a natural application in the exploration of an execution forward and backward looking for a bug. The technique is used in mainstream debuggers such as GDB and WinDBG. Other application areas can also be considered.

Speakers may also submit supplementary material (e.g. a full paper, talk slides) if they desire, which PC members are free (but not expected) to read. We are interested in talks on all topics related to the interaction of higher-order programming and computational effects. Talks about work in progress are particularly encouraged. If you have any questions about the relevance of a particular topic, please contact the PC chairs, Daniel Hillerstr?m (daniel.hillerstrom at ed.ac.uk) and Max S. New (maxsnew at umich.edu).

New (co-chair) (University of Michigan) Shin-ya Katsumata (National Institute of Informatics) --------------------- Goals of the Workshop --------------------- A recurring theme in the research of many ICFP attendees, is the interaction of higher-order programming with various kinds of effects: storage effects, I/O, control effects, concurrency, etc. While effects are of critical importance in many applications, they also make it hard to build, maintain, and reason about one's code. Higher-order languages (both functional and object-oriented) provide a variety of abstraction mechanisms to help "tame" or "encapsulate" effects (e.g. monads, ADTs, ownership types, typestate, first-class events, transactions, Hoare Type Theory, session types, substructural and region-based type systems), and a number of different semantic models and verification technologies have been developed in order to codify and exploit the benefits of this encapsulation (e.g. bisimulations, step-indexed Kripke logical relations, higher-order separation logic, game semantics, various modal logics). But there remain many open problems, and the field is highly active. The goal of the HOPE workshop is to bring researchers from a variety of different backgrounds and perspectives together to exchange new and exciting ideas concerning the design, semantics, implementation, and verification of higher-order effectful programs. We want HOPE to be as informal and interactive as possible. The program will thus involve a combination of invited talks, contributed talks about work in progress, and open-ended discussion sessions. There will be no published proceedings, but participants will be invited to submit working documents, talk slides, etc. to be posted on this website.

It is affiliated with CADE 2023 and will be held on July 5th-6th, 2023, in Rome, Italy. The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers and users of SMT tools and techniques. Relevant topics include but are not limited to: * Decision procedures and theories of interest * Combinations of decision procedures * Novel implementation techniques * Benchmarks and evaluation methodologies * Applications and case studies * Theoretical results Papers on pragmatic aspects of implementing and using SMT tools, as well as novel applications of SMT, are especially encouraged. == Submission Guidelines Three categories of submissions are invited: 1. Extended abstracts: given the informal style of the workshop, we strongly encourage the submission of preliminary reports of work in progress. They may range in length from very short (a couple of pages) to the full 10 pages and they will be judged based on the expected level of interest for the SMT community. They will be included in the informal proceedings. 2. Original papers: contain original research (simultaneous submissions are not allowed) and sufficient detail to assess the merits and relevance of the submission. For papers reporting experimental results, authors are strongly encouraged to make their data available. 3. Presentation-only papers: describe work recently published or submitted and will not be included in the proceedings. We see this as a way to provide additional access to important developments that SMT Workshop attendees may be unaware of. Papers in all three categories will be peer-reviewed. Papers should not exceed 10 pages and should be in standard-conforming PDF. The 10 page limit does not include references, and technical details may be included in an appendix to be read at the reviewers' discretion. Final versions should be prepared in LaTeX using the easychair.cls class file. To submit a paper, go to the EasyChair SMT 2023 submission page and follow the instructions there. == Invited Speakers Mike Whalen, Amazon Oded Padon, VMware Research == Program Chairs St?phane Graham-Lengrand, SRI International Mathias Preiner, Stanford University == Program Committee Leonardo Alt, Ethereum Foundation Clark Barrett, Stanford University Fran?ois Bobot, CEA Martin Brain, City, University of London Simon Cruanes, Imandra Rayna Dimitrova, CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security Bruno Dutertre, Amazon Web Services Katalin Fazekas, TU Wien Jochen Hoenicke, Certora Antti Hyv?rinen, Certora Ahmed Irfan, SRI International Mikolas Janota, Czech Technical University in Prague Martin Jonas, Masaryk University, Czech Republic Daniela Kaufmann , TU Wien Aina Niemetz, Stanford University Andres Noetzli, Cubist Inc.

The Women in Logic workshop (WiL) provides an opportunity to increase awareness of the valuable contributions made by women in the area of logic in computer science. Its main purpose is to promote the excellent research done by women, with the ultimate goal of increasing their visibility and representation in the community. Our aim is to: - provide a platform for female researchers to share their work and achievements; - increase the feelings of community and belonging, especially among junior faculty, post-docs and students through positive interactions with peers and more established faculty; - establish new connections and collaborations; - foster a welcoming culture of mutual support and growth within the logic research community. We believe these aspects will benefit women working in logic and computer science, particularly early-career researchers. Previous versions of Women in Logic (Reykjav?k 2017, Oxford 2018, Vancouver 2019, Paris 2020, Rome 2021, and Haifa 2022) were very successful in showcasing women's work and as catalysts for a recognition of the need for change in the community. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: automata theory, automated deduction, categorical models and logics, concurrency and distributed computation, constraint programming, constructive mathematics, database theory, decision procedures, description logics, domain theory, finite model theory, formal aspects of program analysis, formal methods, foundations of computability, games and logic, higher-order logic, lambda and combinatory calculi, linear logic, logic in artificial intelligence, logic programming, logical aspects of bioinformatics, logical aspects of computational complexity, logical aspects of quantum computation, logical frameworks, logics of programs, modal and temporal logics, model checking, probabilistic systems, process calculi, programming language semantics, proof theory, real-time systems, reasoning about security and privacy, rewriting, type systems and type theory, and verification.

It is also a corpus of tools, approaches, and methodologies (proof nets, exponential decomposition, geometry of interaction, coherent spaces, relational models, etc.) that, even if developed for studying Linear Logic syntax and semantics, have been applied in several other fields (analysis of lambda-calculus computations, game semantics, computational complexity, program verification, etc.). The TLLA international workshop aims at bringing together researchers working on Linear Logic or applying it or its tools. The main goal is to present and discuss trends in the research on Linear Logic and its applications by means of tutorials, invited talks, open discussions, and contributed talks. The purpose is to gather researchers interested in the connections between Linear Logic and various topics such as * theory of programming languages * games and languages * proof theory * categories and algebra * implicit computational complexity * parallelism and concurrency * quantum and probabilistic computing * models of computation * possible connections with combinatorics * functional analysis and operator algebras * philosophy * linguistics ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Submission Guidelines ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Contributions are not restricted to talks presenting an original results, but open to tutorials, open discussions, and position papers. For this reason, we strongly encourage contributions presenting work in progress, open questions, and research projects. Contributions presenting the application of linear logic results, techniques, or tools to other fields, or vice versa, are most welcome. To propose a contributed talk, send an email with the pdf file of a short abstract to tlla23 at irif.fr Please specify in the email message the names of the corresponding authors and their emails, if different from the sending one, which in any case will be used for further communications. The abstract, whose length should be between 2 and 5 page, must include the names and the email addresses of all the authors. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Important dates ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * Submission deadline: 15 May 2023 * Notification to authors: 22 May 2023 * Final versions due: 31 May 2023 * Workshop date: 1-2 July 2023 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Publication ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The abstracts of the contributed and invited talks will be published on the site of the conference.

Submission deadline: July 11 Start of author response period: Sept 11 End of author response period: Sept 14 Notification of conditional acceptance: Oct 2 Artifact deadline: Oct 9 Revised submissions due: Oct 26 Notification of final acceptance (artifacts & papers): Nov 7 Camera-ready deadline: Nov 10 ### Scope Principles of Programming Languages (POPL) is a forum for the discussion of all aspects of programming languages and programming systems. Both theoretical and experimental papers are welcome. We seek submissions that make principled, enduring contributions to the theory, design, understanding, implementation, or application of programming languages. ### Evaluation Criteria The Program Committee will evaluate the technical contribution of each submission as well as its accessibility to both experts and the general POPL audience. All papers will be judged on significance, originality, relevance, correctness, and clarity. Each paper must explain its scientific contribution in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and comparing it with previous work. Advice on writing technical papers can be found on the [SIGPLAN author information page](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBBWyuG58$ ). Deadlines and formatting requirements, detailed below, will be strictly enforced. ### Full Double-Blind Reviewing Process POPL 2024 will use a **full double-blind** reviewing process (similar to the one used for POPL 2023 but different from the lightweight double-blind process used in previous years). This means that identities of authors will not be made visible to reviewers until after conditional-acceptance decisions have been made, and then only for the conditionally-accepted papers. The use of full double-blind reviewing has several consequences for authors. * **Submissions**: Authors must omit their names and institutions from their paper submissions. In addition, references to authors' own prior work should be in the third person (e.g., not "We build on our previous work ?" but rather "We build on the work of ?"). * **Supplementary material**: Authors are permitted to provide supplementary material (e.g., detailed proofs, proof scripts, system implementations, or experimental data) along with their submission, which reviewers may (but are not required to) examine. This material may take the form of a single file, such as a PDF or a tarball. **Authors must fully anonymize any supplementary material. Links to supplementary material on external websites are not permitted.** * **Author response**: In responding to reviews, authors should not say anything that reveals their identity, since author identities will not be revealed to reviewers at that stage of the reviewing process. * **Dissemination of work under submission**: Authors are welcome to disseminate their ideas and post draft versions of their paper(s) on their personal website, institutional repository, or arXiv (reviewers will be asked to turn off arXiv notifications during the review period). But authors should not take steps that would almost certainly reveal their identities to members of the Program Committee, e.g., directly contacting PC members or publicizing the work on widely-visible social media or major mailing lists used by the community. The purpose of the above restrictions is to help the Program Committee and external reviewers come to a judgment about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors' identities if they were to try. In particular, nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the quality of the submission. However, there are occasionally cases where adhering to the above restrictions is truly difficult or impossible for one reason or another. In such cases, the authors should contact the Program Chair to discuss the situation and how to handle it. The [FAQ on Double-Blind Reviewing](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://conf.researchr.org/track/POPL-2024/POPL-2024-popl-research-papers*FAQ-on-Double-Blind-Reviewing__;Iw!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBAsyOgZY$ ) addresses many common scenarios and answers many common questions about this topic. But there remain many grey areas and trade-offs. If you have any doubts about how to interpret the double-blind rules or you encounter a complex case that is not clearly covered by the FAQ, please contact the Program Chair for guidance. ### Additional Details of the Reviewing Process POPL 2024 will have four Associate Chairs who will help the Program Chair monitor reviews, solicit external expert reviews for submissions when there is not enough expertise on the committee, and facilitate reviewer discussions. As in previous years, authors will have a multi-day period to respond to reviews, as indicated in the Important Dates table. Responses are optional but recommended. A response should address specific points or questions raised in the reviews as well as any erroneous claims made by reviewers; in particular, it should not present new technical results, unless specifically requested by the reviewers. The Program Committee (PC) will discuss papers electronically using the HotCRP conference management system. There will be no physical or synchronous PC meeting; this will avoid the time, cost, and environmental impact of transporting an increasingly large committee to one point on the globe. There is also no formal External Program Committee or Extended Review Committee, though experts outside the committee will be consulted as needed. Paper decisions will be accompanied by a "meta-review" summarizing the reasoning behind the committee's decision. To conform with ACM requirements for journal publication, all POPL papers will be subject to two rounds of review. At the end of the first round, the PC will select a set of _conditionally accepted_ papers, each with a clear list of mandatory revisions that the authors must implement in order for the paper to be accepted. For the second round, authors of conditionally accepted papers will then be required to submit a short description of how they have revised the paper, including how the mandatory revisions have been implemented. The PC will then check the revisions and make final acceptance decisions. Authors of conditionally accepted papers must submit a satisfactory revision to the PC by the second-round deadline or risk rejection. For additional information about the reviewing process, see: [Principles of POPL](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sigplan.org/Conferences/POPL/Principles/__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBUkSQqtU$ ), a presentation of the underlying organizational and reviewing policies for POPL. For POPL 2024, policies specified in this Call for Papers supersede those in the Principles of POPL document. ### Submission Site Information The submission site is https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://popl24.hotcrp.com__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBp4l0RQE$ . Authors can submit multiple times prior to the deadline. Only the last submission will be reviewed. There is no abstract deadline. The submission site requires entering author names and affiliations, relevant topics, and potential conflicts. Addition or removal of authors after the submission deadline will need to be approved by the Program Chair (as this kind of change potentially undermines the goal of eliminating conflicts during paper assignment). The submission deadline is 11:59 PM on July 11, 2023, Anywhere on Earth: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anywhere_on_Earth__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCB0kHeWYE$ ### Conflicts of Interest For each submission, the authors must make sure that they properly declare all potential conflicts of interest for all of the authors of that submission. This includes marking PC conflicts as well as ?Other Conflicts (external)?. A conflict caught late in the reviewing process leads to a voided review which may be infeasible to replace. Conflicts should be declared between an adviser and an advisee (e.g., Ph.D., post-doc; forever), between an author and a co-author (papers and proposals; for two years), between people at the same institution (branches of large companies or different locations of research institutes are considered to be the same institution; for two years after leaving an institution), between people with financial conflicts of interest, and between friends or relatives. Please do not declare spurious conflicts: such incorrect conflicts are especially harmful if the aim is to exclude potential reviewers, so spurious conflicts can be grounds for rejection. If you are unsure about a conflict, please ask the Program Chair. ### Submission Guidelines Prior to the paper submission deadline, authors should upload their full anonymized paper. Here are some key requirements concerning paper submissions: * Each paper should have no more than **25 pages of text, excluding bibliography**, using the PACMPL format (specifically, the `acmart` LaTeX class with `acmsmall` option). It is a single-column page layout with a 10 pt font, 12 pt line spacing, and wider margins than recent POPL page layouts. In this format, the main text block is 5.478 in (13.91 cm) wide and 7.884 in (20.03 cm) tall. Use of a different format (e.g., smaller fonts or a larger text block) is grounds for summary rejection. The PACMPL template for LaTeX can be found at the [SIGPLAN author information page](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBBWyuG58$ ), and further information about PACMPL submissions can be found on the [PACMPL author guidelines page](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://dl.acm.org/journal/pacmpl/author-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBsI7WAbo$ ). PACMPL does not support submissions in Microsoft Word. * We strongly encourage use of the `review` and `screen` options in order to make submissions easier to review. * We strongly encourage use of author-year citations, since that is the citation format required by PACMPL for final versions of accepted papers. * Submissions should be in PDF and printable on both US Letter and A4 paper. Papers may be resubmitted to the submission site multiple times up until the deadline, but the last version submitted before the deadline will be the version reviewed. Papers that exceed the length requirement or deviate from the expected format will be rejected. * Submitted papers must adhere to the [SIGPLAN Republication Policy](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBRskp8Yo$ ) and the [ACM Policy on Plagiarism](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism-overview__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBcZhV8Ag$ ). Concurrent paper submissions to other conferences, workshops, journals, or similar forums of publication are not allowed. * Authors are free to submit supplementary material along with their submissions, but it must be fully anonymized. * Authors must list all their conflicts of interest (both PC conflicts and external conflicts) in the HotCRP submission form. * Authors may include additional information in a field of the HotCRP submission form labeled "Confidential Comments for the Program Chair". This information need not be anonymized. It can be used to inform the Program Chair, for example, about sensitive issues concerning a conflict with a PC member or about supplementary material that cannot be anonymized. It is left to the discretion of the Program Chair what to do with this information. * If for some reason an author feels uncomfortable discussing a sensitive issue with the Program Chair (or communicating via the "Confidential Comments" field in HotCRP), they should feel free to get in touch instead with any of the Associate Chairs, with whom they can discuss the issue in confidence. ### Artifact Evaluation for Accepted Papers Authors of conditionally accepted papers will be invited to formally submit supporting materials to the Artifact Evaluation process. Artifact Evaluation is run by a separate committee whose task is to assess how the artifacts support the work described in the papers. Artifact submission is strongly encouraged but voluntary and will not influence the final decision regarding the papers. Papers that go through the Artifact Evaluation process successfully will receive a seal of approval printed on the papers themselves. Authors of accepted papers are encouraged to make these materials publicly available upon publication of the proceedings, by including them as "source materials" in the ACM Digital Library. ### Copyright, Publication, and Presentation As a Gold Open Access journal, PACMPL is committed to making peer-reviewed scientific research free of restrictions on both access and (re-)use. Authors are strongly encouraged to support libre open access by licensing their work with the [Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY) license](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBfWmV2AE$ ), which grants readers liberal (re-)use rights. Authors of accepted papers will be required to choose one of the following publication rights: * Author licenses the work with a [Creative Commons license](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://creativecommons.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!WzHj6cmM3CxRAMeIKmJLZ-V8p9MfMZ4DrbXAPs4t3CkWPmPUmEC4SJZAgprfSEuFaqTqBVt99cXFs9IANEa-zW89fT-0OvrHc3iGCoCBMcRTqqw$ ), retains copyright, and (implicitly) grants ACM non-exclusive permission to publish (suggested choice). * Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM a non-exclusive permission to publish license. * Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM an exclusive permission to publish license. * Author transfers copyright of the work to ACM. These choices follow from ACM Copyright Policy and ACM Author Rights, corresponding to ACM's "author pays" option. While PACMPL may ask authors who have funding for open-access fees to voluntarily cover the article processing charge (currently, US$400), payment is not required for publication. PACMPL and SIGPLAN continue to explore the best models for funding open access, focusing on approaches that are sustainable in the long-term while reducing short-term risk. All papers will be archived by the ACM Digital Library. Authors will have the option of including supplementary material with their paper. The official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. Authors of accepted papers are required to give a short talk (precise length still to be determined, but typically between 15 and 25 minutes) at the conference, according to the conference schedule. ### Distinguished Paper Awards At most 10% of the accepted papers of POPL 2024 will be designated as Distinguished Papers. This award highlights papers that the Program Committee thinks should be read by a broad audience due to their relevance, originality, significance, and clarity. The selection of the distinguished papers will be made based on the final version of the paper and through an additional review process. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

(Marco)) Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2023 11:17:18 +0000 Subject: [TYPES/announce] 5-year PhD Position in Language-based Security @ Utrecht University (Netherlands) Message-ID: We are pleased to announce a 5-year PhD position on Language-based Security in the Software Technology group at Utrecht University. # About the position Today, developers do not have the right tools to build secure systems. They develop critical software using programming languages and compilers that do not account for security or privacy. Therefore, attackers can too easily exploit software bugs as security vulnerabilities to bypass defenses and breach systems. By rigorously applying programming language techniques to security problems, language-based security provides a fundamental approach to building secure systems. In this project, you will develop foundations and practical techniques to build software systems with reliable security guarantees.

The goals for the workshop are: - To assemble a community interested in software architecture techniques and technologies specific to functional programming; - To identify, categorize, and document topics relevant to the field of functional software architecture; - To connect the functional programming community to the software architecture community to cross-pollinate between the two. The workshop follows on from the Functional Software Architecture open space that was held at ICFP 2022 in Slovenia. SCOPE: The workshop seeks submissions in a range of categories: - You're a member of the FP community and have thought about how to support programming in the large, for example by framing functional ideas in architectural terms or vice verse, comparing different languages in terms of their architectural capabilities, clarifying architectural roles played by formal methods, proof assistants and DSLs, or observing how functional concepts are used in other language and architecture communities. Great, submit a research paper! - You're a member of the architecture community, and have thought about how your discipline might help functional programmers, for example by applying domain-driven design, implementing hexagonal architecture, or designing self-contained systems. Excellent, submit a research paper! - You've worked on a large project using functional programming, and it's worked out well, or terribly, or a mix of both; bonus points for deriving architectural principles from your experience. Wonderful, submit an experience report! - You know a neat architectural idiom or pattern that may be useful to others developing large functional software systems. Fabulous, submit an architectural pearl! - You have something that doesn't fit the above categories, but that still relates to functional software architecture, such as something that can be written up, or that could be part of the workshop format like a panel debate or a fishbowl. Superb, submit to the open category! Research papers should explain their research contributions in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and relating it to previous work, and to other languages where appropriate. Experience reports and architectural pearls need not necessarily report original research results. The key criterion for such papers is that they make a contribution from which others can benefit. It is not enough simply to describe a large software system, or to present ideas that are specific to a particular system. Open category submissions that are not intended for publication are not required to follow the formatting guidelines, and can submit in PDF, word or plain text format as preferred. If you are unsure whether your contribution is suitable, or if you need any kind of help with your submission, please email the program chairs at . SUBMISSION: Papers must be submitted by 1st June 2023 using EasyChair, via the following link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tinyurl.com/FUNARCH23-submit__;!!IBzWLUs!SNyK-QS5VEg2-LqRRjItlJLn1kJEouG5GI1hbhI9rXak4stZjB3imVncmTLvp9tkq6cTgGOW5XaorRZ-eFgvwpzVn4DIGayNK1IF$ Formatting: submissions intended for publication must be in PDF format and follow the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines, using the acmart format and the sigplan sub-format. Please use the review option, as this enables line numbers for easy reference in reviews.

Length: submissions must adhere to the limits specified below. However, there is no requirement or expectation that all pages are used, and authors are encouraged to strive for brevity. Research papers 5 to 12+ pages Architectural pearls 5 to 12 pages Experience reports 3 to 6 pages Open category 1 to 6 pages Publication: The proceedings of FUNARCH 2023 will be published in the ACM Digital Library, and authors of accepted papers are required to agree to one of the standard ACM licensing options. Accepted papers must be presented at the workshop by one of the authors, but in special cases we may consider remote presentation. The official publication date is the date the papers are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work.

We have also added the "journal-first papers" submission category (papers that have been published in a journal during the last year but have never been presented at a conference or workshop). Please feel free to submit your contribution. 4th International Workshop about Sets and Tools (SETS 2023) Affiliated to CICM 2023 September 4, 2023 ? Cambridge (UK) https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.lirmm.fr/sets2023/__;!!IBzWLUs!VBj8dteBSTcYt7lLLrC6_gXwsxoYHrpRfAtVGSzm7VpfcJsA3JS1PYzFCcR1tfIMSeqFbfIPgl3iZfT8YuELDUkYWcozSeVkMXyINY4A$ Call for Papers Aim Sets and constructs built upon them like relations, functions, sequences are the main modeling ingredients of formalisms such as VDM, Z, B, or Event-B. Sets also occur in the formalization of mathematics, as evidenced by the large library of the Mizar proof system, for example. In addition, still in the domain of theorem proving, there is an increasing interest to automate set theory (which is known to be a difficult problem), with some concrete realizations, such as mp (the "main prover" of Atelier B) or different decision procedures for SAT or SMT solvers. Sets are also the main features of some programming languages like the former SetL language or the more recent {log} language (pronounced as setlog). The workshop aims at bringing together researchers interested in set theory, especially to design tools for dealing with set theory, such as interactive or automated theorem provers, proof checkers, theories for general purpose proof tools, constraint solvers, programming languages etc. These tools may be dedicated or general purpose tools. Contributions by theoreticians working on set theories or fragments of set theories in the aim of designing concrete tools, and by practitioners using set-based tools are both welcome. We are also interested in contributions providing some comparisons between set modeling techniques and other formalisms, such as type theory (and variants) for instance. Finally, regarding the domains of application, we mainly expect contributions in the framework of formal methods, but not exhaustively, and contributions reporting formalizations of mathematics using set theory for example could be of interest for this workshop as well. Topics Topics of interest for this workshop include all aspects of set theory and corresponding tools. More specifically, some suggested topics are: * Proof tools for sets * Constraint solvers for sets * Set-based programming languages * Automated verification in set theory * Encodings of set theory in provers * Set theories for SMT solvers * Use of set-based tools in formal methods * Use of set-based tools in mathematics * Comparison of set-based tools * Comparison between set and type theories * Experience reports Contributions and Proceedings Submitted papers must be 6-15 pages in length, following the Springer LNCS format. These submissions may be: * Research papers providing new concepts and results * Position papers and research perspectives * Experience reports * Tool presentations * Journal-first papers. That is, papers that have been published in a journal during the last year but have never been presented at a conference or workshop. The authors should submit an abstract and a reference indicating where the paper was published. Proceedings, including all the papers selected for the workshop, will be published as online proceedings in the CEUR workshop proceedings series (CEUR-WS.org) together with the other workshop papers and informal submissions of CICM.

Modern programming languages are interesting targets for formal techniques due to their ubiquity and wide user base, stable and well-defined interfaces and platforms, and powerful (but also complex) libraries. New languages and applications in this space are continually arising, resulting in new programming languages (PL) research challenges. Work on formal techniques and tools and on the formal underpinnings of programming languages themselves naturally complement each other. FTfJP is an established workshop which has run annually since 1999 alongside ECOOP, with the goal of bringing together people working in both fields. The workshop has a broad PL theme. The most important criterion is that submissions will generate interesting discussions within this community. The term "Java-like" is somewhat historic and should be interpreted broadly: FTfJP solicits and welcomes submissions relating to programming languages in general, beyond Java, including submissions related to C#, Scala, and similar languages, and submissions on more general topics that may be relevant to such languages. Example topics of interest include: * Language design and semantics * Type systems * Concurrency and new application domains * Specification and verification of program properties * Program analysis (static or dynamic) * Program synthesis * Security * Pearls (programs or proofs) FTfJP welcomes submissions on technical contributions, case studies, experience reports, challenge proposals, and position papers. Webpages for previous workshops in this series are available at: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://ftfjp.github.io/__;!!IBzWLUs!VGGRwrl7xjCbGyH86Z1Yr07U6CGdFAnZ5BBBnIzUoerjXelBPbLOhAy4ffB3iIJ-3hcxXG2QsDmcZ0C3lxaiJbfYn46ylBZLQXKk$ === Paper Categories === Contributions are sought in two categories: * Full Papers (6 pages, excluding references) present a technical contribution, case study, or detailed experience report. We welcome both complete and incomplete technical results; ongoing work is particularly welcome, provided it is substantial enough to stimulate interesting discussions. * Short Papers (2 pages, excluding references) should advocate a promising research direction, or otherwise present a position likely to stimulate discussion at the workshop. We encourage, e.g., established researchers to set out a personal vision, and beginning researchers to present a planned path to a Ph.D. Both types of contributions will benefit from feedback received at the workshop. Submissions will be peer reviewed, and will be evaluated based on their clarity and their potential to generate interesting discussions. Reviewing will be single blind, there is no need to anonymize submissions. The format of the workshop encourages interaction. FTfJP is a forum in which a wide range of people share their expertise, from experienced researchers to beginning PhD students. === Submission Guidelines === All submissions and reviews will be managed within EasyChair. Submissions should be made via https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ftfjp2023__;!!IBzWLUs!VGGRwrl7xjCbGyH86Z1Yr07U6CGdFAnZ5BBBnIzUoerjXelBPbLOhAy4ffB3iIJ-3hcxXG2QsDmcZ0C3lxaiJbfYn46ylMGqfB3W$ There is no need to indicate the paper category (long/short). Submissions should be in acmart/sigplan style, 10pt font. Formatting requirements are detailed on the SIGPLAN Author Information page (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author__;!!IBzWLUs!VGGRwrl7xjCbGyH86Z1Yr07U6CGdFAnZ5BBBnIzUoerjXelBPbLOhAy4ffB3iIJ-3hcxXG2QsDmcZ0C3lxaiJbfYn46ylPjjyMP3$ ). We plan that, as in previous years, accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library, though authors will be able to opt out of this publication, if desired. At least one author of an accepted paper must register to the conference by the early registration date and attend the workshop to present the work and participate in the discussions. Selected papers will also be considered for extended versions to be submitted to the Journal of Object Technology (JOT). -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The SRC consists of three rounds: * Submission of an extended abstract * Poster session at ICFP 2023 * Finalists' presentations at ICFP 2023 During the first round students submit an extended abstract detailing their research to be reviewed by the program committee. Those students whose abstracts get accepted advance to the poster session round which will take place during ICFP 2023. Winners of the poster session advance to next round, where they will give a 5-minute presentation about their work on the ICFP main stage in front of a live audience. ### IMPORTANT DATES * Submission Deadline: 25 May 2023 (Thursday) * Author Notification: 15 June 2023 (Thursday) * ICFP 2023 Conference in Seattle, Washington, USA: 4 September 2023 (Monday) - 9 September 2023 (Saturday) ### SUBMISSION OF EXTENDED ABSTRACTS * Submission Website: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://icfp23src.hotcrp.com__;!!IBzWLUs!VmtxbTN2rigExQ7lFKsWcmbobrr9loBWAqMq8fV3VyVUfFGB-TLOOwbMZmVcmUiFdrKQEa-dd8zkUlvyT8DbQUkfxzcEPG3rIeJGdJfBK1U$ Each submission (referred to as "abstract" below) should include the student author's name and e-mail address; institutional affiliation; research advisor's name; ACM student member number; category (undergraduate or graduate); research title; and an extended abstract addressing the following: * Problem and Motivation: Clearly state the problem being addressed and explain the reasons for seeking a solution to this problem. * Background and Related Work: Describe the specialized (but pertinent) background necessary to appreciate the work in the context of ICFP areas of interest. Include references to the literature where appropriate, and briefly explain where your work departs from that done by others. * Approach and Uniqueness: Describe your approach in addressing the problem and clearly state how your approach is novel. * Results and Contributions: Clearly show how the results of your work contribute to programming language design and implementation in particular and to computer science in general; explain the significance of those results. * Submissions must be original research that is not already published at ICFP or another conference or journal. One of the goals of the SRC is to give students feedback on ongoing, unpublished work. Furthermore, the abstract must be authored solely by the student. If the work is collaborative with others and/or part of a larger group project, the abstract should make clear what the student's role was and should focus on that portion of the work. * Formatting: Submissions must be in PDF format, printable in black and white on US Letter sized paper, and interpretable by common PDF tools.

ICFP provides a forum for researchers and developers to hear about the latest work on the design, implementations, principles, and uses of functional programming. Proposals are invited for tutorials, lasting approximately 3 hours each, to be presented during ICFP and its co-located workshops and other events. The tutorials may target an audience who is interested in commercial uses of functional programming, but we also welcome tutorials whose primary audience is researchers rather than practitioners. Tutorials may focus either on a concrete technology or on a theoretical or mathematical tool. Ideally, tutorials will have a concrete result, such as "Learn to do X with Y" rather than "Learn language Y". Just like last year, following the success of the #ShutDownPL event, we are also inviting proposals for panels and discussions on topics of broader interest to the PL community. Tutorials, panels, and discussions may occur before or after ICFP, co-located with the associated workshops, on September 4 or September 8-9. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Submission details Deadline for submission: May 23rd, 2023 Notification of acceptance: May 26th, 2023 Prospective organizers of tutorials are invited to submit a completed tutorial proposal form in plain text format to the ICFP 2023 workshop co-chairs (Arthur Azevedo de Amorim and Yannick Forster), via email to icfp-workshops-2023 AT googlegroups.com by May 23rd, 2023.

It is also a corpus of tools, approaches, and methodologies (proof nets, exponential decomposition, geometry of interaction, coherent spaces, relational models, etc.) that, even if developed for studying Linear Logic syntax and semantics, have been applied in several other fields (analysis of lambda-calculus computations, game semantics, computational complexity, program verification, etc.). The TLLA international workshop aims at bringing together researchers working on Linear Logic or applying it or its tools. The main goal is to present and discuss trends in the research on Linear Logic and its applications by means of tutorials, invited talks, open discussions, and contributed talks. The purpose is to gather researchers interested in the connections between Linear Logic and various topics such as * theory of programming languages * games and languages * proof theory * categories and algebra * implicit computational complexity * parallelism and concurrency * quantum and probabilistic computing * models of computation * possible connections with combinatorics * functional analysis and operator algebras * philosophy * linguistics ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Submission Guidelines ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Contributions are not restricted to talks presenting an original results, but open to tutorials, open discussions, and position papers.

Most models embed significant inherent and accidental complexity which hampers verification and maintenance, reproducibility, and performance. There is consequently a pressing need for computer science research to provide the tools and techniques that climate scientists need to deliver new high-quality, high-performance, and high-assurance models. Applying the latest computer science research to support climate science is the aim of this 5-year Early Career Academic Fellowship in the new Institute of Computing for Climate Science (ICCS) at the University of Cambridge. The institute is a joint venture between the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, the Department of Computer Science and Technology and University Information Services, thanks to a philanthropic donation from Schmidt Futures. ICCS will improve understanding of our changing climate through the development and dissemination of models for scientific computing. ICCS hosts a team of Research Software Engineers who work directly with four international Virtual Earth Systems Research Institutes (VESRI) to address computation and research software needs of climate scientists. This Fellowship offers a unique opportunity to carry out foundational research into computational support for climate science, with access to climate science teams. As part of the interdisciplinary ICCS team, this opening is for an outstanding research scientist with expertise in working across the interfaces between data science, computer science and climate science. As part of the University of Cambridge, ICCS has a significant education and training component, through the commitment towards sharing its scientific insights openly and broadly, and will contribute strongly to Cambridge Zero, the University's climate change initiative, that is identifying routes to the creation of a sustainable, zero-carbon future for all. Areas of expertise that are welcomed for this fellowship include: - Parallelisation and high-performance computing. - Programming language design and implementation. - Data visualisation and analysis. - Verification, particularly for numerical computing. - Machine learning in the context of modelling and its effective programming Fellows will be encouraged to develop their own research agenda, with guidance and mentoring by the ICCS directors, in particular Dr Dominic Orchard who leads the Computer Science vision of the institute, and with Dr Jeremy Yallop. The Fellow will be affiliated with the Department of Computer Science and Technology and expected to collaborate with the Research Software Engineers within ICCS and the VESRI Science teams. The appointment has generous travel and research expenses support, and will allow Fellows to supervise PhDs, apply for other funding, and engage with teaching within ICCS and across the University. The position also includes dining rights at Queens' College. Role requirements: - A PhD in Computer Science or another relevant subject area. - Normally at least three years' research experience (obtained in either academic or industrial settings). - A strong track record of published research in one or more relevant areas. - Evidence of potential for interdisciplinary collaborations. - Evidence of potential to obtain additional research funding. Experience of teaching and research supervision is desirable. We will consider the possibility of appointing at a lower grade (i.e. Research Associate, with salary range ?33,348-?43,155, rather than Senior Research Associate) in the case of an exceptional candidate with less than 3 years' experience post-PhD. Appointment at Senior Research Associate level is dependent on significant experience as a research associate or equivalent. In both cases, successful candidates will hold (or be close to completing) a PhD. Appointment at research associate level is dependent on having a PhD. Where a PhD has yet to be awarded, appointment will initially be made as a research assistant and amended to research associate when the PhD is awarded. This is a fixed term appointment and funds are initially available for 5 years.

From the beginning, SC was also considered a major approach to "artificial intelligence", since the problems solved by SC, typically, are problems that were considered hard for "human intelligence" (like symbolic integration, theorem proving, SAT/SMT solving, program verification, hardware verification, etc.). Meanwhile, recent advances in artificial intelligence methods have provided new exciting opportunities in science and industry, being more and more integrated into most aspects of life. Machine learning (ML) methods, developed in parallel to symbolic methods for solving hard "artificial intelligence" problems, achieved spectacular results in numerous applications in recent years. This special issue is dedicated to the interaction of symbolic computation and machine learning methods seen as the two major approaches to "artificial intelligence". We expect dramatic advances from a much closer interaction of the SC and the ML approaches to artificial intelligence. This interplay is, in fact, essential in the current scenario where the economy and society demand the development of complex, data-intensive, trustable, and high-performant computational systems that accompany humans in more and more facets of their daily life. The special issue is organized as a follow-up of the 24th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing, SYNASC 2022. Participants of the symposium, as well as other authors, are invited to submit contributions. We welcome submissions describing the interaction of SC and ML methods, techniques, and tools, and their applications in AI.

RM is concerned with the runtime analysis of software and hardware system executions in order to infer properties relating to system behaviour. Example applications include telemetry, log aggregation, threshold alerting, performance monitoring and adherence to correctness properties (more commonly referred to as Runtime Verification). RM has gained popularity as a solution to ensure software reliability, bridging the gap between formal verification and testing: on the one hand, the notion of event trace abstracts over system executions, thus favoring system agnosticism to better support reuse and interoperability; on the other hand, monitoring a system offers more opportunities for addressing error recovery, self-adaptation, and issues that go beyond software reliability. The goal of VORTEX is to bring together researchers contributing on all aspects of RM covering and possibly integrating both theoretical and practical aspects, with particular focus on hybrid approaches inspired by formal methods, program analysis, testing. Call for Papers --------------- Submissions are expected to be in English and to belong to one of the following two categories: * regular paper, page limit 8 in acmart sigconf style: unpublished self-contained work * extended abstract, page limit 4 in acmart sigconf style: original contribution, not yet fully developed Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following ones: * monitor construction and synthesis techniques * program adaptation * monitoring oriented programming * runtime enforcement, fault detection, recovery and repair * combination of static and dynamic analyses * specification formalisms for RM * specification mining * monitoring concurrent/distributed systems * RM for safety and security * RM for the Internet of Things * industrial applications * integrating RM, formal verification, and testing * tool development * instrumentation techniques for RM * surveys on different RM tools, formal frameworks or methodologies * presentations of RM tools * techniques to increase coverage of RM, as concolic execution Papers must be submitted electronically via EasyChair (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=vortex2023__;!!IBzWLUs!XDKTUmRlvwIGYthH23MTs3R1wwk023O_PCldfv14uJb9FFv3GKVkFpFevyIVrv1UtNAsyky5GOquDH20kH67sMiz_tYJnWjI6e8ZK9U$ ); the submission deadline is April 30 AoE.

FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS *** The First ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Functional Software Architecture - FP in the Large 8th September 2023, Seattle, Washington, USA Co-located with ICFP 2023 https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tinyurl.com/FUNARCH-23__;!!IBzWLUs!RBoWjftssiOH65YDyISUw90oGDMBJCkGAWLg4lCGhfckp3wUwIm2Aqmuc8DNcYXhzAoM__VPWpUjDkrs7L82nbNvtAd-2SJ2RHG_HV9_kUSO9A$ ====================================================================== TIMELINE: Paper submission 1st June 2023 Author notification 28th June 2023 Camera ready copy 18th July 2023 Workshop 8th Sept 2023 BACKGROUND: "Functional Software Architecture" refers to methods of construction and structure of large and long-lived software projects that are implemented in functional languages and released to real users, typically in industry. The goals for the workshop are: - To assemble a community interested in software architecture techniques and technologies specific to functional programming; - To identify, categorize, and document topics relevant to the field of functional software architecture; - To connect the functional programming community to the software architecture community to cross-pollinate between the two. The workshop follows on from the Functional Software Architecture open space that was held at ICFP 2022 in Slovenia. SCOPE: The workshop seeks submissions in a range of categories: - You're a member of the FP community and have thought about how to support programming in the large, for example by framing functional ideas in architectural terms or vice verse, comparing different languages in terms of their architectural capabilities, clarifying architectural roles played by formal methods, proof assistants and DSLs, or observing how functional concepts are used in other language and architecture communities. Great, submit a research paper! - You're a member of the architecture community, and have thought about how your discipline might help functional programmers, for example by applying domain-driven design, implementing hexagonal architecture, or designing self-contained systems. Excellent, submit a research paper! - You've worked on a large project using functional programming, and it's worked out well, or terribly, or a mix of both; bonus points for deriving architectural principles from your experience. Wonderful, submit an experience report! - You know a neat architectural idiom or pattern that may be useful to others developing large functional software systems. Fabulous, submit an architectural pearl! - You have something that doesn't fit the above categories, but that still relates to functional software architecture, such as something that can be written up, or that could be part of the workshop format like a panel debate or a fishbowl. Superb, submit to the open category! Research papers should explain their research contributions in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and relating it to previous work, and to other languages where appropriate. Experience reports and architectural pearls need not necessarily report original research results. The key criterion for such papers is that they make a contribution from which others can benefit. It is not enough simply to describe a large software system, or to present ideas that are specific to a particular system. Open category submissions that are not intended for publication are not required to follow the formatting guidelines, and can submit in PDF, word or plain text format as preferred. If you are unsure whether your contribution is suitable, or if you need any kind of help with your submission, please email the program chairs at >. SUBMISSION: Papers must be submitted by 1st June 2023 using EasyChair, via the following link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tinyurl.com/FUNARCH23-submit__;!!IBzWLUs!RBoWjftssiOH65YDyISUw90oGDMBJCkGAWLg4lCGhfckp3wUwIm2Aqmuc8DNcYXhzAoM__VPWpUjDkrs7L82nbNvtAd-2SJ2RHG_HV_2WJQjjQ$ Formatting: submissions intended for publication must be in PDF format and follow the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines, using the acmart format and the sigplan sub-format.

"Journeys of Black Mathematicians" (zalafilms.com) is a powerful film that traces the history of these pioneering individuals and their impact on mathematics. This film is not only a tribute to their achievements, but also an inspiration for Black and other minority students to pursue their studies and consider careers in mathematics. The film is currently in production and its filmmaker, George Csicsery, has agreed to give us a sneak peek. We will be shown a rough cut if it is ready by the screening date. If not, George will be showcasing some sample scenes to give us a taste of what's to come.

We are still trying to figure out what happened and why they were not posted. Unfortunately, some of the posts included deadline extensions which have since then passed the point of being relevant. I am now trying to work through the backlog steadily, accepting posts in batches while avoiding spamming everyone with a firehose of emails. If you submitted a message weeks ago, it has not been posted yet, and the posting is (a) still relevant and (b) very urgent, please let me know. In some cases, I decided to discard posts from a few weeks ago if it seemed that a key deadline had already passed. Apologies for this situation, but we are getting back on track now...

Important Dates Paper submission: 15 May 2023 4 June 2023 Notification: 30 June 2023 7 July 2023 Camera-ready: 30 July 2023 Conference: 3-6 October 2023 Objectives and Scope Runtime verification is concerned with the monitoring and analysis of the runtime behaviour of software and hardware systems. Runtime verification techniques are crucial for system correctness, reliability, and robustness; they provide an additional level of rigor and effectiveness compared to conventional testing and are generally more practical than exhaustive formal verification. Runtime verification can be used prior to deployment, for testing, verification, and debugging purposes, and after deployment for ensuring reliability, safety, and security and for providing fault containment and recovery as well as online system repair. The topics of the conference include, but are not limited to: specification languages for monitoring monitor construction techniques program instrumentation logging, recording, and replay combination of static and dynamic analysis specification mining and machine learning over runtime traces monitoring techniques for concurrent and distributed systems runtime checking of privacy and security policies metrics and statistical information gathering program/system execution visualization fault localization, containment, resilience, recovery and repair systems with learning-enabled components dynamic type checking and assurance cases runtime verification for autonomy and runtime assurance Application areas of runtime verification include cyber-physical systems, autonomous systems, safety/mission critical systems, enterprise and systems software, cloud systems, reactive control systems, health management and diagnosis systems, and system security and privacy. Papers There are four categories of papers that can be submitted: regular, short, tool demo, and benchmark papers. Papers in each category will be reviewed by at least three members of the Program Committee. Regular Papers (up to 16 pages, not including references) should present original unpublished results. We welcome theoretical papers, system papers, papers describing domain-specific variants of RV, and case studies on runtime verification. Short Papers (up to 8 pages, not including references) may present novel but not necessarily thoroughly worked out ideas, for example emerging runtime verification techniques and applications, or techniques and applications that establish relationships between runtime verification and other domains. Tool Demonstration Papers (up to 8 pages, not including references) should present a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to existing tools supporting runtime verification. The paper must include information on tool availability, maturity, selected experimental results and it should provide a link to a website containing the theoretical background and user guide. Furthermore, we strongly encourage authors to make their tools and benchmarks available with their submission. Benchmark Papers (up to 8 pages, not including references) should describe a benchmark, suite of benchmarks, or benchmark generator useful for evaluating RV tools. Papers should include information as to what the benchmark consists of and its purpose (what is the domain), how to obtain and use the benchmark, an argument for the usefulness of the benchmark to the broader RV community and may include any existing results produced using the benchmark. We are interested in both benchmarks pertaining to real-world scenarios and those containing synthetic data designed to achieve interesting properties. Broader definitions of benchmark e.g. for generating specifications from data or diagnosing faults are within scope. We encourage benchmarks that are tool agnostic, especially if they have been used to evaluate multiple tools. We also welcome benchmarks that contain verdict labels and with rigorous arguments for correctness of these verdicts, and benchmarks that are demonstrably challenging with respect to the state-of-the-art tools. Benchmark papers must be accompanied by an easily accessible and usable benchmark submission. Papers will be evaluated by a separate benchmark evaluation panel who will assess the benchmarks relevance, clarity, and utility as communicated by the submitted paper. The Program Committee of RV 2023 will give a Springer-sponsored Best Paper Award to one eligible regular paper. Tutorial track: tutorials are two-to-three-hour presentations on a selected topic. Additionally, tutorial presenters will be offered to publish a paper of up to 20 pages in the LNCS conference proceedings. A proposal for a tutorial must contain the subject of the tutorial, a proposed timeline, a note on previous similar tutorials (if applicable) and the differences to this incarnation, and biographies of the presenters. The proposal must not exceed 2 pages. Special Journal Issue! The Program Committee of RV 2023 will invite a selection of accepted papers to submit extended versions to a special issue of the International Journal on Software Tools for Technology Transfer (STTT). Submissions All papers and tutorials will appear in the conference proceedings in an LNCS volume. Submitted papers and tutorials must use the LNCS/Springer style detailed here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!SemGMjKvBh7j_VXBQERg0TOEfdNcZy1bOKQLo-Oj67wodJ3MpVG46oDgEpf6cfQc-OkVRqrVoqRbeDrHUfm0JnQD78QIdo4Qx5A$ . Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. The volume is currently scheduled to appear in the LNCS ?Formal Methods? subline .

This year marks 30 years since the first paper on session types, by Kohei Honda at CONCUR 1993. Since then the topic has attracted increasing interest, and a substantial community and literature have developed. Google Scholar lists almost 400 articles with "session types" in the title, and most programming language conferences now include several papers on session types each year. In terms of the technical focus, there have been continuing theoretical developments (notably the generalisation from two-party to multi-party session types by Honda, Yoshida and Carbone in 2008, and the development of a Curry-Howard correspondence with linear logic by Caires and Pfenning in 2010) and a variety of implementations of session types as programming language extensions or libraries, covering (among others) Haskell, OCaml, Java, Scala, Rust, Python, C#, Go. We invite submissions to a workshop celebrating 30 years of session types. Submissions can be about any aspect of session types, including but not limited to the topics listed above. The programme will include invited talks, contributed talks, software demonstrations and a panel session. We call for three types of submission: - Research papers with a maximum length of 8 pages (excluding bibliography and appendices). Submitted research papers will be reviewed for novelty, clarity and technical soundness. They must not be submitted simultaneously for publication in other venues. Accepted research papers will appear in the workshop proceedings. - Talk proposals with a maximum length of 2 pages (excluding bibliography and appendices). Talk proposals can be for presentation of ongoing work, or for presentation of work that has already been published elsewhere. Proposals will be reviewed based on their likely interest as contributions to the workshop. Accepted talks will be presented at the workshop, but will not have corresponding papers in the workshop proceedings. - Demo proposals with a maximum length of 2 pages (excluding bibliography and appendices). Demo proposals can be for any programming language, library, tool or other software that is based on session types. Accepted demos will be presented at the workshop, but will not have corresponding papers in the workshop proceedings. Submissions must be formatted in EPTCS style. We intend the proceedings to be published in EPTCS.

Runtime verification techniques are crucial for system correctness, reliability, and robustness; they provide an additional level of rigor and effectiveness compared to conventional testing and are generally more practical than exhaustive formal verification. Runtime verification can be used prior to deployment, for testing, verification, and debugging purposes, and after deployment for ensuring reliability, safety, and security and for providing fault containment and recovery as well as online system repair. The topics of the conference include, but are not limited to: - specification languages for monitoring - monitor construction techniques - program instrumentation - logging, recording, and replay - combination of static and dynamic analysis - specification mining and machine learning over runtime traces - monitoring techniques for concurrent and distributed systems - runtime checking of privacy and security policies - metrics and statistical information gathering - program/system execution visualization - fault localization, containment, resilience, recovery and repair - systems with learning-enabled components - dynamic type checking and assurance cases - runtime verification for autonomy and runtime assurance Application areas of runtime verification include cyber-physical systems, autonomous systems, safety/mission critical systems, enterprise and systems software, cloud systems, reactive control systems, health management and diagnosis systems, and system security and privacy. Papers There are four categories of papers that can be submitted: regular, short, tool demo, and benchmark papers. Papers in each category will be reviewed by at least three members of the Program Committee. Regular Papers (up to 16 pages, not including references) should present original unpublished results. We welcome theoretical papers, system papers, papers describing domain-specific variants of RV, and case studies on runtime verification. Short Papers (up to 8 pages, not including references) may present novel but not necessarily thoroughly worked out ideas, for example emerging runtime verification techniques and applications, or techniques and applications that establish relationships between runtime verification and other domains. Tool Demonstration Papers (up to 8 pages, not including references) should present a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to existing tools supporting runtime verification. The paper must include information on tool availability, maturity, selected experimental results and it should provide a link to a website containing the theoretical background and user guide. Furthermore, we strongly encourage authors to make their tools and benchmarks available with their submission. Benchmark Papers (up to 8 pages, not including references) should describe a benchmark, suite of benchmarks, or benchmark generator useful for evaluating RV tools. Papers should include information as to what the benchmark consists of and its purpose (what is the domain), how to obtain and use the benchmark, an argument for the usefulness of the benchmark to the broader RV community and may include any existing results produced using the benchmark. We are interested in both benchmarks pertaining to real-world scenarios and those containing synthetic data designed to achieve interesting properties. Broader definitions of benchmark e.g. for generating specifications from data or diagnosing faults are within scope. We encourage benchmarks that are tool agnostic, especially if they have been used to evaluate multiple tools. We also welcome benchmarks that contain verdict labels and with rigorous arguments for correctness of these verdicts, and benchmarks that are demonstrably cha llenging with respect to the state-of-the-art tools. Benchmark papers must be accompanied by an easily accessible and usable benchmark submission. Papers will be evaluated by a separate benchmark evaluation panel who will assess the benchmarks relevance, clarity, and utility as communicated by the submitted paper. The Program Committee of RV 2023 will give a Springer-sponsored Best Paper Award to one eligible regular paper. Tutorial track: tutorials are two-to-three-hour presentations on a selected topic. Additionally, tutorial presenters will be offered to publish a paper of up to 20 pages in the LNCS conference proceedings. A proposal for a tutorial must contain the subject of the tutorial, a proposed timeline, a note on previous similar tutorials (if applicable) and the differences to this incarnation, and biographies of the presenters. The proposal must not exceed 2 pages. Special Journal Issue! The Program Committee of RV 2023 will invite a selection of accepted papers to submit extended versions to a special issue of the International Journal on Software Tools for Technology Transfer (STTT). Submissions All papers and tutorials will appear in the conference proceedings in an LNCS volume. Submitted papers and tutorials must use the LNCS/Springer style detailed here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!T1BwJpftGDQGa3TEH2nUoHK_owRO5oGNJ3uYFd_jzdn2pa5yLSMu-DDpLB4PWKwu1FYg47e-AaKPWMOufFsIC4Uz7NQMzDFn$ . Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. The volume is currently scheduled to appear in the LNCS ?Formal Methods? subline. Papers must be original work and not be submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers must be written in English and submitted electronically (in PDF format) using the EasyChair submission page here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rv2023__;!!IBzWLUs!T1BwJpftGDQGa3TEH2nUoHK_owRO5oGNJ3uYFd_jzdn2pa5yLSMu-DDpLB4PWKwu1FYg47e-AaKPWMOufFsIC4Uz7L3l8X_7$ The page limitations mentioned above include all text and figures, but exclude references. Additional details omitted due to space limitations may be included in a clearly marked appendix, that will be reviewed at the discretion of reviewers, but not included in the proceedings. At least one author of each accepted paper and tutorial must register and present the contribution at RV 2023. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Sorbonne Paris Nord, FR) ================================================================== ++ SCOPE AND TOPICS Concurrency and Logics are two of the most active research areas in the theoretical computer science domain. The literature in these fields is extensive and provides a plethora of logics and models for reasoning about intelligent and distributed systems. More recently, the interplay of concurrency and logic with areas such as: 1. design, verification, synthesis for concurrent systems, both qualitative and quantitative; 2. strategic reasoning for distributed and multi-agent systems; 3. analysis and validation techniques for concurrent and distributed programs, such as advanced type systems and separation logics; has received much attention, as witnessed by recent editions of AI conferences. All these examples share the challenge of developing novel theories and tools for automated reasoning that take into account the behavior of concurrent and multi-agent entities. The workshop aims to bring together researchers working on different aspects of logic and concurrency in AI, multi-agent systems, and computer science, both from a theoretical and a practical point of view. Besides, it aims to promote research on Foundation of AI in other research communities that are traditionally Theoretical Computer Science-oriented. The topics covered by the workshop include, but are not limited to, the following: Concurrency Theory; Programming languages and semantics; Formal models for communication-based, concurrent and distributed systems; Logics in concurrency; Logics for verification of (concurrent) multi-agent systems; Logical foundations of decision theory for multi-agent systems; Knowledge representation; Programming languages; ++ SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Submitted contributions should not exceed 2 pages (not including references) using the EasyChair format.

A submission to RADICAL would typically fall within one of the following categories: reports of an ongoing work and/or preliminary results; summaries of an already published paper (or series of papers); overviews of (recent) PhD theses; descriptions of research projects and consortia; manifestos, calls to action, personal views on current and future challenges; overviews of interesting yet underrepresented problems. This list is by no means exhaustive but merely indicative. Submissions based on already published works should include explicit references/links as appropriate. Reviewers may read such prior published works, but are not obliged to do so. Submissions will be judged by the program committee on the basis of significance, relevance, and potential of an engaging, compelling talk at the workshop. Submission from PC members is encouraged. It is understood that for each accepted submission one of the co-authors will attend the workshop and give the talk. No Proceedings: RADICAL will be an informal venue, oriented to interaction, so there will be no formal proceedings. ++ IMPORTANT DATES ** Submission deadline: 30 June 2023. ** Notification to authors: 28 July 2023. ** Workshop: 18th September 2023, in Antwerp (Belgium). ++ WORKSHOP CO-CHAIRS Giuseppe Perelli (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy) Jorge A.

The aim of this project is twofold: - Putting forward a comprehensive and unifying logico-mathematical study of substructural modal logics, that is, substructural logics with modalities; - Exploring the application of substructural modal logics outside the bounds of mathematical logic and, in particular, in the areas of knowledge representation; legal reasoning; data privacy and security; logical analysis of natural language. The workshop is complementary to the course "Modal Lambek Calculus and its Natural Language Applications" (Sadrzadeh and Wijnholds) held during the first week of ESSLLI 2023. WORKSHOP THEME By calling into question the implicit structural rules that are taken for granted in classical logic, substructural logics have brought to the fore new forms of reasoning with applications in many interdisciplinary areas of interest. Modalities, in the substructural setting, provide the tools to control and finetune the logical resource management. The focus of the workshop is on applications in the areas of interest to the ESSLLI community, in particular logical approaches to natural language syntax and semantics and the dynamics of reasoning. The workshop welcomes contributions on topics including, but not limited to, - Modalities in extended typelogical grammars - Refinements of the linear exponential: prooftheoretic and semantic aspects - Modalities and the dynamics of NL interpretation: ellipsis, gapping, pronoun resolution - Substructural Dynamic Epistemic Logic, Intuitionistic Public Announcement logic - Epistemic substructural logics, e.g. Epistemic Separation Logic - Intuitionistic Modal Logics - Quantum Dynamic Logic PROGRAMME COMMITTEE - Nick Bezhanishvili (U of Amsterdam) - Sabine Fritella (INSA) - Rajeev Gore (ANU Canberra) - Giuseppe Greco (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) - Rosalie Iemhoff (Utrecht University) - Michael Moortgat (Utrecht University, co-chair) - Richard Moot (LIRMM Montpellier) - Valeria de Paiva (Topos Institute, Berkeley) - Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh (UCL, co-chair) - Andre Scedrov (UPenn) - Sonja Smets (U of Amsterdam) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The goal of this workshop is to bring together the implementors of a variety of languages with advanced type systems. The main focus is on the practical issues that come up in the implementation of these systems, rather than the theoretical frameworks that underlie them. In particular, we want to encourage exchanging ideas between the communities around specific systems that would otherwise be accessible to only a very select group. The workshop will have a mix of invited and contributed talks, organized discussion times, and informal collaboration time. We invite participants to share their experiences, study differences among the implementations, and generalize lessons from those. We also want to promote the creation of a shared vocabulary and set of best practices for implementing type systems. Here are a few examples of topics we are interested to discuss: - ? syntax with binders and substitution - ? conversion modulo beta and eta - ? implicit arguments and metavariables - ? unification and constraint solving - ? metaprogramming and tactic languages - ? editor integration and automation - ? discoverability of language features - ? pretty printing and error messages This list is not exhaustive, so please contact the PC chairs in case you are unsure if a topic falls within the scope of the workshop. === Paper categories === We are looking for contributions in two categories: - Discussion proposals (1 page abstract) should highlight a particular technique or aspect of type system implementation that is applicable to different languages. These should not present novel ideas, but rather focus on building a shared understanding between the different communities working on type systems. - Talk proposals (1 page abstract) should present a novel idea or technique, an implementation of a new type system feature (which can be work in progress), or highlight a particular problem that came up in the implementation of a type system. Both types of contribution will be evaluated based on their relevance, clarity, and their potential to generate interesting discussions. We especially welcome submissions from people who are new to the field or work in adjacent areas. Reviewing will be single blind, so there is no need to anonymize submissions. Accepted submissions will be made available publicly on the WITS website. There are no formal proceedings, so you are free to submit work that has also been submitted elsewhere. === Program Committee === PC Chairs: - Jesper Cockx (Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands) - Richard Eisenberg (Jane Street, USA) Committee Members: - Guillaume Allais (University of Strathclyde, Scotland) - Alexis King (Tweag Software Innovation Lab, France) - Xavier Leroy (Coll?ge de France, France) - Jon Sterling (Aarhus University, Denmark) - Sebastian Ullrich (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

RM is concerned with the runtime analysis of software and hardware system executions in order to infer properties relating to system behaviour. Example applications include telemetry, log aggregation, threshold alerting, performance monitoring and adherence to correctness properties (more commonly referred to as Runtime Verification). RM has gained popularity as a solution to ensure software reliability, bridging the gap between formal verification and testing: on the one hand, the notion of event trace abstracts over system executions, thus favoring system agnosticism to better support reuse and interoperability; on the other hand, monitoring a system offers more opportunities for addressing error recovery, self-adaptation, and issues that go beyond software reliability. The goal of VORTEX is to bring together researchers contributing on all aspects of RM covering and possibly integrating both theoretical and practical aspects, with particular focus on hybrid approaches inspired by formal methods, program analysis, testing. Call for Papers --------------- Submissions are expected to be in English and to belong to one of the following two categories: * regular paper, page limit 8 in acmart sigconf style: unpublished self-contained work * extended abstract, page limit 4 in acmart sigconf style: original contribution, not yet fully developed Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following ones: * monitor construction and synthesis techniques * program adaptation * monitoring oriented programming * runtime enforcement, fault detection, recovery and repair * combination of static and dynamic analyses * specification formalisms for RM * specification mining * monitoring concurrent/distributed systems * RM for safety and security * RM for the Internet of Things * industrial applications * integrating RM, formal verification, and testing * tool development * instrumentation techniques for RM * surveys on different RM tools, formal frameworks or methodologies * presentations of RM tools * techniques to increase coverage of RM, as concolic execution Papers must be submitted electronically via EasyChair (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=vortex2023__;!!IBzWLUs!XQdQaAQxUun4XiuqsqavbvcttitulKrL18zbl7V6g9yj1zPovyTacz07uh7l2FSO56FW2shhoHXCmWPKfrlwsl52o2TSKlvhSK-KD8s$ ); the submission deadline is April 30 AoE.

It will be *informal*, consisting of contributed talks on work in progress, and open-ended discussion sessions. ---------------------- Call for Talk Proposals ----------------------- We solicit proposals for contributed talks. We recommend preparing proposals of at most 2 pages excluding references, in either plain text or PDF format. However, we will accept longer proposals or submissions to other conferences, under the understanding that PC members are only expected to read the first two pages of such longer submissions. When submitting talk proposals, authors should specify how long a talk the speaker wishes to give. By default, contributed talks will be 30 minutes long, but proposals for shorter or longer talks will also be considered. Speakers may also submit supplementary material (e.g. a full paper, talk slides) if they desire, which PC members are free (but not expected) to read. We are interested in talks on all topics related to the interaction of higher-order programming and computational effects. Talks about work in progress are particularly encouraged. If you have any questions about the relevance of a particular topic, please contact the PC chairs, Daniel Hillerstr?m (daniel.hillerstrom at ed.ac.uk) and Max S. New (maxsnew at umich.edu). Deadline for talk proposals: May 31, 2023 (Wednesday) Notification of acceptance: June 29, 2023 (Thursday) Workshop: September 4, 2023 (Monday) The submission website is now open: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://hope23.hotcrp.com__;!!IBzWLUs!QoPC2sGSRGie0g5a7yMSk4tqhS0BPfh3ppLgD7CdKypQWTRtll3014Y8zLBCZ30bXtSSy5DX4OJ_gW2Vne9wCzEOz_E6jXxMQ69Ro8jyE4c$ --------------------- Workshop Organization --------------------- Program Committee: Casper Bach Poulsen (TU Delft) Craig McLaughlin (University of New South Wales) Cristina Matache (The University of Edinburgh) Daniel Hillerstr?m (co-chair) (Huawei Zurich Research Center) Fredrik Nordvall Forsberg (University of Strathclyde) James Noble Ma?gorzata Biernacka (University of Wroclaw) Matias Toro (University of Chile) Max S. New (co-chair) (University of Michigan) Shin-ya Katsumata (National Institute of Informatics) --------------------- Goals of the Workshop --------------------- A recurring theme in the research of many ICFP attendees, is the interaction of higher-order programming with various kinds of effects: storage effects, I/O, control effects, concurrency, etc. While effects are of critical importance in many applications, they also make it hard to build, maintain, and reason about one's code. Higher-order languages (both functional and object-oriented) provide a variety of abstraction mechanisms to help "tame" or "encapsulate" effects (e.g. monads, ADTs, ownership types, typestate, first-class events, transactions, Hoare Type Theory, session types, substructural and region-based type systems), and a number of different semantic models and verification technologies have been developed in order to codify and exploit the benefits of this encapsulation (e.g. bisimulations, step-indexed Kripke logical relations, higher-order separation logic, game semantics, various modal logics). But there remain many open problems, and the field is highly active. The goal of the HOPE workshop is to bring researchers from a variety of different backgrounds and perspectives together to exchange new and exciting ideas concerning the design, semantics, implementation, and verification of higher-order effectful programs. We want HOPE to be as informal and interactive as possible. The program will thus involve a combination of invited talks, contributed talks about work in progress, and open-ended discussion sessions. There will be no published proceedings, but participants will be invited to submit working documents, talk slides, etc. to be posted on this website.

GPCE seeks conceptual, theoretical, empirical, and technical contributions to its topics of interest, which include but are not limited to: * program transformation, staging, * macro systems, preprocessors, * program synthesis, * code-recommendation systems, * domain-specific languages, * generative language workbenches, * language embedding, language design, * feature-oriented programming, * domain engineering, * feature interactions, * applications and properties of code generation, * language implementation, * product-line development, * (NEW!) AI/ML techniques for generating code, and * (NEW!) low code / no code approaches. GPCE promotes cross-fertilization between programming languages and software development and among different styles of generative programming in its broadest sense. Authors are welcome to check with the PC chair whether their planned papers are in scope. --------------------------- PAPER CATEGORIES --------------------------- GPCE solicits four kinds of submissions: * Full Papers: reporting original and unpublished results of research that contribute to scientific knowledge for any GPCE topics. Full paper submissions must not exceed 12 pages excluding the bibliography. * Short Papers: presenting unconventional ideas or new visions in any GPCE topics. Short papers do not always contain complete results as in the case of full papers, but can introduce new ideas to the community and get early feedback. Note that short papers are not intended to be position statements. Accepted short papers are included in the proceedings and will be presented at the conference. Short paper submissions must not exceed 6 pages excluding the bibliography, and must have the text ?(Short Paper)? appended to their titles. * Tool Demonstrations: presenting tools for any GPCE topics. Tools must be available for use and must not be purely commercial. Submissions must provide a tool description not exceeding 6 pages excluding bibliography and a separate demonstration outline including screenshots also not exceeding 6 pages. Tool demonstration submissions must have the text ?(Tool Demonstration)? appended to their titles. If they are accepted, tool descriptions will be included in the proceedings. The demonstration outline will only be used for evaluating the submission. * (NEW!) Generative Pearl: is an elegant essay about generative programming. Examples include but are not limited to an interesting application of generative programming and an elegant presentation of a (new or old) data structure using generative programming (similar to Functional Pearl in ICFP and Pearl in ECOOP). Accepted Generative Pearl papers are included in the proceedings and will be presented at the conference. Generative Pearl submissions must not exceed 12 pages excluding the bibliography (but may be shorter), and must have the text ?(Generative Pearl)? appended to their titles. --------------------------- PAPER SELECTION --------------------------- The GPCE program committee will evaluate each submission according to the following selection criteria: * Novelty. Papers must present new ideas or evidence and place them appropriately within the context established by previous research in the field. * Significance. The results in the paper must have the potential to add to the state of the art or practice in significant ways. * Evidence. The paper must present evidence supporting its claims. Examples of evidence include formalizations and proofs, implemented systems, experimental results, statistical analyses, and case studies. * Clarity. The paper must present its contributions and results clearly. --------------------------- BEST PAPER AWARD --------------------------- Following the tradition, the GPCE 2023 program committee will select the best paper among accepted papers.

We are looking forward for your papers. Best, Niki =============================================================================== ACM SIGPLAN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS Haskell Symposium 2023 Seattle, WA, USA Fri 8 -- Sat 9 September, 2023 https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.haskell.org/haskell-symposium/2023/__;!!IBzWLUs!RcqNiB_LX4SlDKShcS7qrfESM0QbchWM0q93coBtKWuVwseskC6pI8RshCPxHmfcxbQVlPxQeEA5WpbNx-30ggaW4U_f_mRVQw$ ================================================================================ The ACM SIGPLAN Haskell Symposium 2023 will be co-located with the 2023 International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP). As with last year, Haskell'23 will use a single-track submission process. That is, we will only have the regular track and no early track. The Haskell Symposium presents original research on Haskell, discusses practical experience and future development of the language, and promotes other forms of declarative programming. Topics of interest include: * Language design, with a focus on possible extensions and modifications of Haskell as well as critical discussions of the status quo; * Theory, such as formal semantics of the present language or future extensions, type systems, effects, metatheory, and foundations for program analysis and transformation; * Implementations, including program analysis and transformation, static and dynamic compilation for sequential, parallel, and distributed architectures, memory management, as well as foreign function and component interfaces; * Libraries, that demonstrate new ideas or techniques for functional programming in Haskell; * Tools, such as profilers, tracers, debuggers, preprocessors, and testing tools; * Applications, to scientific and symbolic computing, databases, multimedia, telecommunication, the web, and so forth; * Functional Pearls, being elegant and instructive programming examples; * Experience Reports, to document general practice and experience in education, industry, or other contexts; * Tutorials, to document how to use a particular language feature, programming technique, tool or library within the Haskell ecosystem; * System Demonstrations, based on running software rather than novel research results. Regular papers should explain their research contributions in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and relating it to previous work, and to other languages where appropriate. Experience reports and functional pearls need not necessarily report original academic research results. For example, they may instead report reusable programming idioms, elegant ways to approach a problem, or practical experience that will be useful to other users, implementers, or researchers. The key criterion for such a paper is that it makes a contribution from which other Haskellers can benefit. It is not enough simply to describe a standard solution to a standard programming problem, or report on experience where you used Haskell in the standard way and achieved the result you were expecting. Like an experience report and a functional pearl, tutorials should make a contribution from which other Haskellers can benefit. What distinguishes a tutorial is that its focus is on explaining an aspect of the Haskell language and/or ecosystem in a way that is generally useful to a Haskell audience. Tutorials for many such topics can be found online; the distinction here is that by writing it up for formal review it will be vetted by experts and formally published. System demonstrations should summarize the system capabilities that would be demonstrated. The proposals will be judged on whether the ensuing session is likely to be important and interesting to the Haskell community at large, whether on grounds academic or industrial, theoretical or practical, technical, social or artistic. Please contact the program chair with any questions about the relevance of a proposal. If your contribution is not a research paper, please mark the title of your experience report, functional pearl, tutorial or system demonstration as such, by supplying a subtitle (Experience Report, Functional Pearl, Tutorial Paper, System Demonstration). Submission Details ================== Formatting ---------- Submitted papers should be in portable document format (PDF), formatted using the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines. Authors should use the `acmart` format, with the `sigplan` sub-format for ACM proceedings. For details, see: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/*acmart-format__;Iw!!IBzWLUs!RcqNiB_LX4SlDKShcS7qrfESM0QbchWM0q93coBtKWuVwseskC6pI8RshCPxHmfcxbQVlPxQeEA5WpbNx-30ggaW4U_0HG_VtQ$ It is recommended to use the `review` option when submitting a paper; this option enables line numbers for easy reference in reviews. Functional pearls, experience reports, tutorials and demo proposals should be labelled clearly as such. Lightweight Double-blind Reviewing ---------------------------------- Haskell Symposium 2023 will use a lightweight double-blind reviewing process. To facilitate this, submitted papers must adhere to two rules: 1. Author names and institutions must be omitted, and 2. References to authors' own related work should be in the third person (e.g., not "We build on our previous work" but rather "We build on the work of "). The purpose of this process is to help the reviewers come to an initial judgement about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the paper more difficult (e.g., important background references should not be omitted or anonymised). In addition, authors should feel free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their paper as they normally would. For instance, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web or give talks on their research ideas. A reviewer will learn the identity of the author(s) of a paper after a review is submitted. Page Limits ----------- The length of submissions should not exceed the following limits: Regular paper: 12 pages Functional pearl: 12 pages Tutorial: 12 pages Experience report: 6 pages Demo proposal: 2 pages There is no requirement that all pages are used. For example, a functional pearl may be much shorter than 12 pages. In all cases, the list of references is not counted against these page limits. Deadlines --------- Paper submission: 1 June 2023 (Thu) Notification: 4 July 2023 (Tue) Camera ready: 18 July 2023 (Tue) Deadlines are anywhere on Earth. Submission ---------- Submissions must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/__;!!IBzWLUs!RcqNiB_LX4SlDKShcS7qrfESM0QbchWM0q93coBtKWuVwseskC6pI8RshCPxHmfcxbQVlPxQeEA5WpbNx-30ggaW4U8c9QDm2Q$ ), and authors should be aware of ACM's policies on plagiarism (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism__;!!IBzWLUs!RcqNiB_LX4SlDKShcS7qrfESM0QbchWM0q93coBtKWuVwseskC6pI8RshCPxHmfcxbQVlPxQeEA5WpbNx-30ggaW4U9RTlkcng$ ). Program Committee members are allowed to submit papers, but their papers will be held to a higher standard. The paper submission deadline and length limitations are firm. There will be no extensions, and papers violating the length limitations will be summarily rejected. Papers should be submitted through HotCRP at: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://haskell23.hotcrp.com/__;!!IBzWLUs!RcqNiB_LX4SlDKShcS7qrfESM0QbchWM0q93coBtKWuVwseskC6pI8RshCPxHmfcxbQVlPxQeEA5WpbNx-30ggaW4U-mRLb8Yw$ Improved versions of a paper may be submitted at any point before the submission deadline using the same web interface. Supplementary material: Authors have the option to attach supplementary material to a submission, on the understanding that reviewers may choose not to look at it. This supplementary material should not be submitted as part of the main document; instead, it should be uploaded as a separate PDF document or tarball. Supplementary material should be uploaded at submission time, not by providing a URL in the paper that points to an external repository. Authors can distinguish between anonymised and non-anonymised supplementary material. Anonymised supplementary material will be visible to reviewers immediately; non-anonymised supplementary material will be revealed to reviewers only after they have submitted their review of the paper and learned the identity of the author(s). Resubmitted Papers: authors who submit a revised version of a paper that has previously been rejected by another conference have the option to attach an annotated copy of the reviews of their previous submission(s), explaining how they have addressed these previous reviews in the present submission. If a reviewer identifies him/herself as a reviewer of this previous submission and wishes to see how his/her comments have been addressed, the conference chair will communicate to this reviewer the annotated copy of his/her previous review. Otherwise, no reviewer will read the annotated copies of the previous reviews. Proceedings =========== Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Their authors will be required to choose one of the following options: - Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM a non-exclusive permission-to-publish license (and, optionally, licenses the work with a Creative Commons license); - Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM an exclusive permission-to-publish license; - Author transfers copyright of the work to ACM. For more information, please see ACM Copyright Policy (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/copyright-policy__;!!IBzWLUs!RcqNiB_LX4SlDKShcS7qrfESM0QbchWM0q93coBtKWuVwseskC6pI8RshCPxHmfcxbQVlPxQeEA5WpbNx-30ggaW4U9wwSAUaA$ ) and ACM Author Rights (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://authors.acm.org/main.html__;!!IBzWLUs!RcqNiB_LX4SlDKShcS7qrfESM0QbchWM0q93coBtKWuVwseskC6pI8RshCPxHmfcxbQVlPxQeEA5WpbNx-30ggaW4U95VAtZkg$ ). Accepted proposals for system demonstrations will be posted on the symposium website but not formally published in the proceedings. Publication date: The official publication date of accepted papers is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. Artefacts ========= Authors are encouraged to make auxiliary material (artefacts like source code, test data, etc.) available with their paper. Authors can opt to have these artefacts published alongside their paper in the ACM Digital Library (copyright of artefacts remains with the authors). Artefacts must be included as part of their submission to HotCRP and should consist of a .zip file containing the artefact materials, a README explaining the contents of the artefact and how it should be used, and a LICENSE file. If an accepted paper's artefacts are made permanently available for retrieval in a publicly accessible archival repository like the ACM Digital Library, that paper qualifies for an Artefact badge (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/artifact-review-badging__;!!IBzWLUs!RcqNiB_LX4SlDKShcS7qrfESM0QbchWM0q93coBtKWuVwseskC6pI8RshCPxHmfcxbQVlPxQeEA5WpbNx-30ggaW4U87unyh8w$ ).

Established in 1984, the mission of the conference is to support the design, theory, application, and evaluation of computing technologies and languages for programming, modeling, and communicating, which are easier to learn, use, and understand by people. The 2023 symposium is scheduled to take place October 2-6 in Washington, DC, USA. VL/HCC 2023 is 100% Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing (TCMC). ---------------------- We invite you to consider submitting work to our posters/showpieces and graduate consortium tracks: Posters and Showpieces Submission deadline: June 28, 2023 AoE The Posters and Showpieces track (called the ?showpieces track? for short) offers an interactive opportunity to discuss recent research, experiences, challenges, ideas, prototypes, and accomplishments with the VL/HCC community. Formerly called ?posters and demonstrations?, the category now includes posters, videos, downloadable apps, handouts, electronic devices, physical prototypes, or any other artifacts that facilitate meaningful interactions with other conference attendees. A broad range of topics are appropriate for showpieces. The following non-exhaustive list illustrates the possibilities: - Current research in progress. This might include: - Original or innovative technologies or prototypes that may or may not be accompanied by an evaluation - Short qualitative or quantitative studies - Reflections, provocations, or proposals about theory or methods - Results presented in the main VL/HCC conference - Results already presented at another conference or published in a journal - Existing commercial products and/or services - Efforts aimed at integrating research into education - Efforts aimed at commercializing research Showpieces can help accomplish many goals, such as: - Helping graduate student presenters to meet faculty from other universities - Building community interest in a novel way of approaching a research topic - Starting conversations that could lead to new collaborations - Demonstrating to industry sponsors that a specific line of research has practical applications - Showcasing products or services available for sale More details: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://conf.researchr.org/track/vlhcc-2023/vlhcc-2023-posters-and-showpieces__;!!IBzWLUs!VPf4Q4K08EKvXzdBozuHeNB-QhLHAbKhIj2ihg4BJ7L_8W_RbYep8_dh1ownmyFmwcsWFHpP3D7egZPI5Hh3AG9CyhkWCQ$ Graduate Consortium Submission deadline: July 7, 2023 AoE The primary goal of this year?s event is to stimulate graduate students? and other researchers? thinking about ?Low-Code / No-Code Development?. This development paradigm enables the creation and deployment of fully functional applications using visual abstractions and interfaces and requiring little or no procedural code to empower users in creating software applications for constrained domains, even if they lack a programming background. This goal aligns with the theme of the 2023 VL/HCC main conference. Other areas within the remit of VL/HCC are also welcome. Why You Should Participate - Present your work to a smaller, more attentive audience - Get detailed, critical, constructive feedback from a diverse panel of experts - Meet other students working on similar problems - Travel funding may be available to help cover your cost of attending VL/HCC (details below). Who Can Participate? The consortium is open to both Master?s and PhD students worldwide. Participation is particularly encouraged from PhD students who are close to proposing a thesis, as well as from members of groups identified by NSF as underrepresented in the sciences and engineering. If multiple applicants from a particular university apply for the consortium this year, then no more than two per university will be selected to participate.

Unification is concerned with the problem of identifying terms, finding solutions for equations, or making formulas equivalent. It is a fundamental process used in a number of fields of computer science, including automated reasoning, term rewriting, logic programming, natural language processing, program analysis, types, etc. * A non-exhaustive list of topics of interest includes: syntactic and equational unification; matching; constraint solving; unification in modal, temporal, and description logics; narrowing; disunification; anti-unification; semi-unification; higher-order unification; complexity issues; implementation techniques; applications. * Invited speakers: Mauricio Ayala-Rincon (Universidade de Brasilia), Deepak Kapur (UNM, Albuquerque) * List of accepted contributions available on the webpage * Registration: see https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easyconferences.eu/fscd2023__;!!IBzWLUs!RE6W-VlHKbb5iM46DhBanBrw4ST6sq0xHMpenN5tW5U2HfgTpG8lMwTkEj9fZW8s0-wPQfNunE0v2AS5x_bIxdJMXaSb14c-g6u5pIMPyuw$ (early registration until May 31) From Graham.Hutton at nottingham.ac.uk Tue May 30 03:36:56 2023 From: Graham.Hutton at nottingham.ac.uk (Graham Hutton) Date: Tue, 30 May 2023 07:36:56 +0000 Subject: [TYPES/announce] Call for Papers: JFP Special Issue on Program Calculation Message-ID: <960AA989-0CA3-4019-BEB6-D9CB6161B889@nottingham.ac.uk> Dear all, We're delighted to announce a Special Issue on Program Calculation for the Journal of Functional Programming. Please share, and submit your best papers! Best wishes, Graham Hutton and Nicolas Wu Guest Editors ================================================================== JFP Special Issue on Program Calculation We invite submissions to the Journal of Functional Programming Special Issue on Program Calculation: tinyurl.com/prog-calc Notification of intent : 20 October 2023 Submission deadline : 1 December 2023 SCOPE The idea of program calculation, in which programs are derived from specifications using equational reasoning techniques, has been a topic of interest in functional programming since its earliest days. In particular, the approach allows us to systematically discover how programs can be defined, while at the same time obtaining proofs that they are correct. The aim of this special issue is to document advances that have been made in the field of program calculation in recent years. TOPICS Full-length, archival-quality submissions are solicited on all aspects of program calculation and related topics. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Program derivation and transformation; - Inductive and co-inductive methods; - Recursion and co-recursion schemes; - Categorical and graphical methods; - Tool support and proof assistants; - Efficiency and resource usage; - Functional algorithm design; - Calculation case studies. The special issue will also consider papers on program calculation that are not traditional research papers. This may include pearls, surveys, tutorials or educational papers, which will be judged by the usual JFP standards for such submissions. Papers will be reviewed as regular JFP submissions, and acceptance in the special issue will be based on both JFP's quality standards and relevance to the theme. NOTIFICATION OF INTENT Authors must notify the special issue editors of their intent to submit by 20 October 2023. The notification of intent should be submitted by filling out the following form, which asks for data to help identify suitable reviewers: tinyurl.com/intent-to-submit If you miss the notification of intent deadline, but still wish to submit, please contact the special-issue editors. SUBMISSIONS Papers must be submitted by 1 December 2023. Submissions should be typeset in LaTeX using the JFP style file, and submitted through the JFP Manuscript Central system. Choose "Program Calculation" as the paper type, so it gets assigned to the special issue. Further author instructions are available from: tinyurl.com/JFP-instructions We welcome extended versions of conference or workshop papers. Such submissions must clearly describe the relationship with the initial publication, and must differ sufficiently that the author can assign copyright to Cambridge University Press. Prospective authors are welcome to discuss submissions with the editors to ensure compliance.

The Women in Logic workshop (WiL) provides an opportunity to increase awareness of the valuable contributions made by women in the area of logic in computer science. Its main purpose is to promote the excellent research done by women, with the ultimate goal of increasing their visibility and representation in the community. Our aim is to: - provide a platform for female researchers to share their work and achievements; - increase the feelings of community and belonging, especially among junior faculty, post-docs and students through positive interactions with peers and more established faculty; - establish new connections and collaborations; - foster a welcoming culture of mutual support and growth within the logic research community. We believe these aspects will benefit women working in logic and computer science, particularly early-career researchers. Previous versions of Women in Logic (Reykjav?k 2017, Oxford 2018, Vancouver 2019, Paris 2020, Rome 2021, and Haifa 2022) were very successful in showcasing women's work and as catalysts for a recognition of the need for change in the community. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: automata theory, automated deduction, categorical models and logics, concurrency and distributed computation, constraint programming, constructive mathematics, database theory, decision procedures, description logics, domain theory, finite model theory, formal aspects of program analysis, formal methods, foundations of computability, games and logic, higher-order logic, lambda and combinatory calculi, linear logic, logic in artificial intelligence, logic programming, logical aspects of bioinformatics, logical aspects of computational complexity, logical aspects of quantum computation, logical frameworks, logics of programs, modal and temporal logics, model checking, probabilistic systems, process calculi, programming language semantics, proof theory, real-time systems, reasoning about security and privacy, rewriting, type systems and type theory, and verification.

Applications will be considered until the position is filled, though. TL;DR ------- Candidates interested in a PhD in formal and algebraic methods for concurrent, reversible computation in Augusta University (Georgia, USA), starting in January 2024 are invited to apply by June 1st, 2023. A post-doctoral position will open shortly after, but interested candidates should feel encouraged to reach out to informally. In addition to accepting applications, I will be very happy to respond to informal inquiries about any aspect of the position, from technical ones to ones about life in the US "Garden City". Thanks for forwarding this offer or the link to potentially interested candidates. Expanded version (PhD position) ------------------------------------ The Concurrency In Reversible Computations () project is actively seeking a PhD student to fund starting Spring 2024. The funding for an admitted PhD student includes waiver of most tuition (only $25--$640 / semester is due by the student), a stipend ($29K / year), health benefits for the individual, (international) conference travel and possibly equipment (laptop). Funding is currently available for the first three years of the appointment through a new NSF funded project (). The main goals of this project are to improve existing process calculi formalizing reversible computations. In the past, reversible calculi have shed a new light on the correctness and adequation of CCS, ?-calculus and other formalisms for concurrent computation, but they still miss crucial features. Contextual equivalences, observable behaviors, set of operators and infinite behavior, to name a few, are still in the flux and in need of formal definitions that adequately models interesting systems. The original project encompasses many different dimensions, and will be tailored based on mutual interests, capacities, and recent progresses. The successful applicant will be advised by Cl?ment Aubert, and benefit from an international network of collaborators, as well as from a local, lively, group of PhD students (including but not limited to students working on related formal methods). In addition, they will have the opportunity to help mentoring undergraduate research assistants if they wish to do so. Interested students should meet the following: ?? - Be interested in the overall project as stated above. A complete project description or selected publications are available upon request. ?? - Have or are about to complete a Bachelor or (preferably) a Master of Science in Computer Science, Mathematics, or a related field (Computer Engineering, etc.). The successful applicant will additionally need to be admitted to the PhD program by the school's review committee and the Graduate School, but will receive help in completing their application, which should only be a formality. Students from all origins are welcome, and the University has support for issuing documents for student visa for the successful applicant and their family. If you are interested in being considered for this opportunity please begin by contacting Cl?ment Aubert () with the following information: ?? - A brief introduction of yourself and if you have conducted any research already. ?? - CV/Resume. Timeline ?? Applications will be reviewed starting June, 1st, 2023 ?? Interviews will be conducted in June 2023 ?? Successful applicant will be selected in July 2023 ?? Formal application to the PhD program will be due by September, 1st 2023 Expanded version (Post-doctoral position) ---------------------------------------------- This NSF-funded project also includes funding for a post-doctoral researcher position. The duration of the position is initially one year, with guaranteed continuation by mutual agreement. The position will start at a mutually agreeable date, but probably not before July 2024.

Co-located with ICFP, this workshop brings together leading researchers and practitioners who are using or exploring types as a means of program development. We welcome all contributions, both theoretical and practical, on a range of topics including: - dependently typed programming; - generic programming; - design and implementation of programming languages, exploiting types in novel ways; - exploiting typed data, data dependent data, or type providers; - static and dynamic analyses of typed programs; - tools, IDEs, or testing tools exploiting type information; - pearls, being elegant, instructive examples of types used in the derivation, calculation, or construction of programs. # Proceedings and Copyright We will have formal proceedings, published by the ACM. Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Authors must grant ACM publication rights upon acceptance, but may retain copyright if they wish. Authors are encouraged to publish auxiliary material with their paper (source code, test data, and so forth). The proceedings will be freely available for download from the ACM Digital Library from one week before the start of the conference until two weeks after the conference. The official publication date is the date the papers are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. # Submission Details Submissions should fall into one of two categories: - regular research papers (12 pages); - extended abstracts (3 pages). The bibliography will not be counted against the page limits for either category. Regular research papers are expected to present novel and interesting research results, and will be included in the formal proceedings. Extended abstracts should report work in progress that the authors would like to present at the workshop. Extended abstracts will be distributed to workshop attendees but will not be published in the formal proceedings. We welcome submissions from PC members (with the exception of the two co-chairs), but these submissions will be held to a higher standard. Submission is handled through HotCRP: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tyde23.hotcrp.com__;!!IBzWLUs!UjskiLuIihBdhKlC8UDUdwAp30l17wl2jx7w7e6YF74B52XrSCkGIe8TRwSXK-KJKdnxnmpISGB4dK6Wirxrwgo4m0StQPWN$ All submissions should be in portable document format (PDF) and formatted using the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/__;!!IBzWLUs!UjskiLuIihBdhKlC8UDUdwAp30l17wl2jx7w7e6YF74B52XrSCkGIe8TRwSXK-KJKdnxnmpISGB4dK6Wirxrwgo4m9La6RvH$ Note that submissions should use the new 'acmart' format and the two-column 'sigplan' subformat (not to be confused with the one-column 'acmsmall' subformat).

Their design, implementation and their use in reasoning tasks, ranging from the correctness of software to the properties of formal systems, have been the focus of considerable research over the last two decades. This workshop will bring together designers, implementors and practitioners to discuss various aspects impinging on the structure and utility of logical frameworks, including the treatment of variable binding, inductive and co-inductive reasoning techniques and the expressiveness and lucidity of the reasoning process. LFMTP 2023 will provide researchers a forum to present state-of-the-art techniques and discuss progress in areas such as the following: * Encoding and reasoning about the meta-theory of programming languages, logical systems and related formally specified systems. * Theoretical and practical issues concerning the treatment of variable binding, especially the representation of, and reasoning about, datatypes defined from binding signatures. * Logical treatments of inductive and co-inductive definitions and associated reasoning techniques, including inductive types of higher dimension in homotopy type theory. * Graphical languages for building proofs, applications in geometry, equational reasoning and category theory. * New theory contributions: canonical and substructural frameworks, contextual frameworks, proof-theoretic foundations supporting binders, functional programming over logical frameworks, homotopy and cubical type theory. * Applications of logical frameworks: proof-carrying architectures, proof exchange and transformation, program refactoring, etc. * Techniques for programming with binders in functional programming languages such as Haskell, OCaml or Agda, and logic programming languages such as lambda Prolog or Alpha-Prolog. ## Invited Speakers - Niki Vazou (IMDEA Software Institute Madrid, Spain) Note: shared session with LSFA'23 (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://sites.google.com/ufg.br/lsfa2023__;!!IBzWLUs!WnWI7wsrVwoehc9aYJUaRT8ZOtWp-s41yE-sGvp5hg6wlj2waxvAd82NMpuRDpZ34rgiPljTuoX9QnUBA00Lk5-0mIj93QkGCF4Nzw$ ). ## Registration Online registration fee available! https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easyconferences.eu/fscd2023/registration1/__;!!IBzWLUs!WnWI7wsrVwoehc9aYJUaRT8ZOtWp-s41yE-sGvp5hg6wlj2waxvAd82NMpuRDpZ34rgiPljTuoX9QnUBA00Lk5-0mIj93QkI_p8TUQ$ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

There are three studentships available: two which cover home fees (UK, including students with settled or pre-settled status), and one which covers international fees. All studentships also cover living expenses at UKRI rates (?18,622 per annum). Although the above funding is open to students in all areas of Computing Science, applications in the area of programming languages are very welcome. https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.gla.ac.uk/schools/computing/research/researchthemes/pl-theme/__;!!IBzWLUs!Us3bG70ASSzMTC1daz1bqTzzPruEf9nmPIEA5I_ouGzAgdvavQ5AWpNXDV0xtQQ0mKJRtJYTNjfRf2zWAsU2dYOkrZMI2Zj13EO2LpiYo1k$ For applicants wishing to research PL, this round of studentships is available for students wishing to study with Dr Blair Archibald or Dr Simon Fowler. Applicants will typically have a BSc (2:1 or above) or MSc in Computing Science, and will have had some exposure to the field of programming languages through courses, internships, or undergraduate projects. # Supervisors and Sample Projects ## Dr Blair Archibald Potential project: Programming Languages let us describe and reason about computational processes, but what about non-computational processes? Chemistry is becoming increasingly automated: what should a "programming language" for chemistry look like? what chemistry can it describe? can we tell if a chemical protocol is safe before executing it? Applicants are invited for a novel PhD applying ideas from computer science to chemistry (no chemistry background required!). Bio: Blair Archibald's research focuses on the understanding of complex systems, specifically how we can use symbolic techniques to model and reason about them, and how we can create systems using expressive programming languages. Website: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.blairarchibald.co.uk__;!!IBzWLUs!Us3bG70ASSzMTC1daz1bqTzzPruEf9nmPIEA5I_ouGzAgdvavQ5AWpNXDV0xtQQ0mKJRtJYTNjfRf2zWAsU2dYOkrZMI2Zj13EO2GEvd-8E$ E-mail: blair.archibald at glasgow.ac.uk ## Dr Simon Fowler Potential project: Behavioural type systems go beyond data types and classify the behaviour of a program (e.g., whether a program authenticates before making a privileged request). Behavioural type systems are often difficult to implement in a typechecker: algorithmic presentations of behavioural type systems are often designed on an ad-hoc basis, and often not written down or proved correct. Co-contextual type systems, originally designed for incremental type checking, have shown promise as a unifying foundation for implementing behavioural type systems. This research will investigate co-contextual versions of several behavioural type disciplines from the literature (e.g., session types and typestate), and will investigate how co-contextual typing can allow the implementation of abstractions (e.g., mixed choice) that are beyond the reach of current designs. Bio: Simon Fowler?s research focuses on the design and implementation of programming languages, primarily in the context of functional programming and its applications to concurrency and data management. He is particularly interested in multi-tier programming and behavioural type systems.

In particular, newer standards, such as DO-178C (avionics), ISO 26262 (automotive systems), IEC 62304 (medical devices), and CENELEC EN 50128 (railway systems), emphasize the need for formal methods and model-based development, thereby speeding up the adaptation of such methods in industry. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers who are interested in the application of formal and semi-formal methods to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems. FTSCS strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in industrial applications of formal methods. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: * case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods for analyzing safety-critical systems, including avionics, automotive, medical, railway, and other kinds of safety-critical and QoS-critical systems * methods, techniques and tools to support automated analysis, certification, debugging, etc., of safety/QoS-critical systems * analysis methods that address the limitations of formal methods in industry (usability, scalability, etc.) * formal analysis support for modeling languages used in industry, such as AADL, Ptolemy, SysML, SCADE, Modelica, etc. * code generation from validated models. The workshop will provide a platform for discussions and the exchange of innovative ideas, so submissions on work in progress are encouraged. Submission: We solicit submissions reporting on: A- original research contributions (10 pages max, ACM format); B- applications and experiences (10 pages max, ACM format); C- surveys, comparisons, and state-of-the-art reports (10 pages max, ACM); D- tool papers (5 pages max, ACM format); E- position papers and work in progress (5 pages max, ACM format) related to the topics mentioned above.

The mission of the SWS group is to do world-leading research on the use of models for design and analysis of software. The group is well known for work on high productivity software, functional programming, code generation for High-Performance Computing, array computing, model-based software engineering, model learning, model-based testing, model checking, combining formal verification and machine learning, proof assistants, and mathematical foundations. We find it important (and inspiring!) to cover the full spectrum from theory to applications in a single research group. Through collaboration with stakeholders from industry and society, we obtain a better understanding of when and how software science can help solve real-world problems. We have joint projects with, for instance, Canon Production Printing, ASML, Alfa Laval, Philips Healthcare, Google, Intel, Defensieacademie (NLDA), and our spin-off TOP Software Technology. Radboud University's iCIS is an internationally recognised institute, consistently ranked among the top Computer Science departments in the Netherlands. iCIS comprises an enthusiastic and devoted team of excellent scholars that closely collaborate in a flat organisational structure. The Institute focuses its research on three themes: data science, digital security and software science. Each of these themes spans the full breadth from basic fundamental research to application-oriented research. Our long-term drive is to contribute to both science and society. iCIS staff members are also responsible for the Computer Science Bachelor's and Master's programmes, the Information Science Master's programme, and for about 30% of the Bachelor's and Master's programmes in Artificial Intelligence at Radboud University. In spite of the fast-growing student numbers, these programmes are structurally evaluated as one of the best. For example, the Computer Science programme was rated best in its field in Keuzegids 2021. iCIS employees have a high level of freedom to determine the way they structure the work they carry out at Radboud University. The Institute has made a strong effort in the past few years to increase the diversity of its staff. Presently, more than half of our scientific staff has an international background. ## Radboud University We want to get the best out of science, others and ourselves. Why? Because this is what the world around us desperately needs. Leading research and education make an indispensable contribution to a healthy, free world with equal opportunities for all. This is what unites the more than 24,000 students and 5,600 employees at Radboud University. And this requires even more talent, collaboration and lifelong learning. You have a part to play! We offer an employment for 0.8 - 1.0 FTE: * Depending on your scientific track record and experience you will be appointed as an Assistant Professor or Associate Professor, potentially with career track criteria for future promotion. * For an Assistant Professor the gross monthly salary amounts to a minimum of ?3,974 and a maximum of ?6,181 based on a 38-hour working week, depending on previous education and number of years of relevant work experience (salary scale 11 or 12). * For an Associate Professor the gross monthly salary amounts to a minimum of ?5,506 and a maximum of ?7,362 based on a 38-hour working week, depending on previous education and number of years of relevant work experience (salary scale 13 or 14). * You will receive 8% holiday allowance and 8.3% end-of-year bonus. * You will be appointed for an initial period of 18 months. Upon a positive performance evaluation at the end of this period, the contract may be converted into a permanent one. * You will be able to use our Dual Career and Family Care Services. Our Dual Career and Family Care Officer can assist you with family-related support, help your partner or spouse prepare for the local labour market, provide customized support in their search for employment and help your family settle in Nijmegen. * Working for us means getting extra days off. In case of full-time employment, you can choose between 29 or 41 days of annual leave instead of the legally allotted 20. ## Additional employment conditions Work and science require good employment practices. This is reflected in Radboud University's primary and secondary employment conditions.

Information on how to register will be presented later. Scope ________________ FACS 2023 is concerned with how formal methods can be applied to component-based software and system development. Formal methods have provided foundations for component-based software through research on mathematical models for components, composition and adaptation, and rigorous approaches to verification, deployment, testing, and certification. Furthermore, we embrace a trend in recent FACS editions by introducing a new special track of ?Formal Methods at Large?: it will accept submissions about advances based on formal methods across all kinds of software-intensive systems, possibly unrelated to components or composition. Topics ________________ The conference seeks to address the applications of formal methods in all aspects of software components and services. FACS aims at developing a community-based understanding of relevant and emerging research problems through formal paper presentations and lively discussions. FACS 2023 welcomes contributions including but not limited to: - Formal methods, models, and languages for software-intensive systems, components and services, including * verification techniques (e.g., model checking, type systems, testing, runtime analysis), * probabilistic techniques, * (co-)simulation techniques, * composition and deployment, * component interaction, * software variability, * QoS and other non-functional properties (e.g., trust, compliance, security, privacy); - Formal aspects of concrete software-intensive systems, including * service-oriented architectures, * business processes, * cloud or edge computing, * real-time/safety-critical systems, * hybrid and cyber physical systems, * quantum systems, * components that use artificial intelligence; - Tools supporting formal methods for components and services; - Case studies and experience reports over the above topics; - Special track: Formal Methods at Large. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of FACS, we also invite submissions on the topic of ?component-based systems through the years? that describe important results and successful stories that originated in the context of component-based software engineering. All the accepted papers will be presented in a special session. Submissions ________________ We solicit high-quality submissions reporting on: * A - full papers: original research, applications and experiences, surveys, or anniversary papers (16 pages); * B - short papers: tools and demonstrations (6 pages); * C - journal-first papers (4 pages). Accepted papers from all categories will be published by Springer, in the Lecture Notes for Computer Science series. The page limit excludes references and appendices. Papers should be prepared in LaTeX, adhering to the Springer LNCS format and Guidelines. For further information please visit the LNCS page athttps://www.springer.com/lncs.

Sorbonne Paris Nord, FR) ================================================================== ++ SCOPE AND TOPICS Concurrency and Logics are two of the most active research areas in the theoretical computer science domain. The literature in these fields is extensive and provides a plethora of logics and models for reasoning about intelligent and distributed systems. More recently, the interplay of concurrency and logic with areas such as: 1. design, verification, synthesis for concurrent systems, both qualitative and quantitative; 2. strategic reasoning for distributed and multi-agent systems; 3. analysis and validation techniques for concurrent and distributed programs, such as advanced type systems and separation logics; has received much attention, as witnessed by recent editions of AI conferences. All these examples share the challenge of developing novel theories and tools for automated reasoning that take into account the behavior of concurrent and multi-agent entities. The workshop aims to bring together researchers working on different aspects of logic and concurrency in AI, multi-agent systems, and computer science, both from a theoretical and a practical point of view. Besides, it aims to promote research on Foundation of AI in other research communities that are traditionally Theoretical Computer Science-oriented. The topics covered by the workshop include, but are not limited to, the following: Concurrency Theory; Programming languages and semantics; Formal models for communication-based, concurrent and distributed systems; Logics in concurrency; Logics for verification of (concurrent) multi-agent systems; Logical foundations of decision theory for multi-agent systems; Knowledge representation; Programming languages; ++ SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Submitted contributions should not exceed 3 pages (not including references) using the EasyChair format. Submitted papers should be formatted in PDF and uploaded to https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=radical2023__;!!IBzWLUs!QZ6d0HoITk2GTLMsW5jGrNMG6pYxhcKZ1s_Pd9JcNGwwCZH4ndHqLQFvMKlvawxw2KEzzmYKMxvuES37hQYsOzrMVzVmVpBcGuLL$ We invite submissions describing talk proposals on the intersection of logic and concurrency. A submission to RADICAL would typically fall within one of the following categories: reports of an ongoing work and/or preliminary results; summaries of an already published paper (or series of papers); overviews of (recent) PhD theses; descriptions of research projects and consortia; manifestos, calls to action, personal views on current and future challenges; overviews of interesting yet underrepresented problems. This list is by no means exhaustive but merely indicative. Submissions based on already published works should include explicit references/links as appropriate. Reviewers may read such prior published works, but are not obliged to do so. Submissions will be judged by the program committee on the basis of significance, relevance, and potential of an engaging, compelling talk at the workshop. Submission from PC members is encouraged. It is understood that for each accepted submission one of the co-authors will attend the workshop and give the talk. No Proceedings: RADICAL will be an informal venue, oriented to interaction, so there will be no formal proceedings. ++ IMPORTANT DATES ** Submission deadline: 30 June 2023. ** Notification to authors: 28 July 2023. ** Workshop: 18th September 2023, in Antwerp (Belgium). ++ WORKSHOP CO-CHAIRS Giuseppe Perelli (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy) Jorge A.

We invite submissions covering any aspect of programming, systems, languages and applications. The goal of the poster session is to encourage and facilitate small groups of individuals interested in a technical area to gather and interact. It is held early in the conference, to promote continued discussion among interested parties. Submission Deadline: 15 Aug 2023 **** SPLASH-E **** SPLASH-E is a symposium, started in 2013, for software and languages (SE/PL) researchers with activities and interests around computing education. Some build pedagogically-oriented languages or tools; some think about pedagogic challenges around SE/PL courses; some bring computing to non-CS communities; some pursue human studies and educational research. At SPLASH-E, we share our educational ideas and challenges centered in software/languages, as well as our best ideas for advancing such work. SPLASH-E strives to bring together researchers and those with educational interests that arise from software ideas or concerns. Archival Submission Deadline: 27 Jul 2023 ** Student Research Competition (SRC) ** The ACM Student Research Competition (SRC) offers a unique opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to present their research to a panel of judges and conference attendees at SPLASH. The SRC provides visibility and exposes up-and-coming researchers to computer science research and the research community. This competition also gives students an opportunity to discuss their research with experts in their field, get feedback, and sharpen their communication and networking skills. Abstract Submission Deadline: 14 Jul 2023 ** Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop (PLMW) ** The SPLASH Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop encourages graduate students (PhD and MSc) and senior undergraduate students to pursue research in programming languages. This workshop will provide mentoring sessions on how to prepare for and thrive in graduate school and in a research career, focusing both on cutting-edge research topics and practical advice. The workshop brings together leading researchers and junior students in an inclusive environment in order to help welcome newcomers to our field of programming languages research. The workshop will show students the many paths that they might take to enter and contribute to our research community. Application Submission Deadline: 24 Jul 2023 ** Workshops ** **** CONFLANG **** CONFLANG is a workshop on the design, the theory, the practice and the future evolution of configuration languages. It aims to gather the emerging community in this area in order to engage in fruitful interactions, to share ideas, results, opinions, and experiences on languages for configuration. Correct configuration is an actual industrial problem, and would greatly benefit from existing and ongoing academic research. Dually, this is a space with new challenges to overcome and new directions to explore, which is a great opportunity to confront new ideas with large-scale production. **** FTSCS **** The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers who are interested in the application of formal and semi-formal methods to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems. FTSCS strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in industrial applications of formal methods. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods for analyzing safety-critical systems, including avionics, automotive, medical, railway, and other kinds of safety-critical and QoS-critical systems; methods, techniques and tools to support automated analysis, certification, debugging, etc., of safety/QoS-critical systems; analysis methods that address the limitations of formal methods in industry (usability, scalability, etc.); formal analysis support for modeling languages used in industry, such as AADL, Ptolemy, SysML, SCADE, Modelica, etc.; code generation from validated models. The workshop will provide a platform for discussions and the exchange of innovative ideas, so submissions on work in progress are encouraged. **** HATRA **** Programming language designers seek to provide strong tools to help developers reason about their programs. For example, the formal methods community seeks to enable developers to prove correctness properties of their code, and type system designers seek to exclude classes of undesirable behavior from programs. The security community creates tools to help developers achieve their security goals. In order to make these approaches as effective as possible for developers, recent work has integrated approaches from human-computer interaction research into programming language design. This workshop brings together programming languages, software engineering, security, and human-computer interaction researchers to investigate methods for making languages that provide stronger safety properties more effective for programmers and software engineers. We have two goals: (1) to provide a venue for discussion and feedback on early-stage approaches that might enable people to be more effective at achieving stronger safety properties in their programs; (2) to facilitate discussion about relevant topics of participant interest. **** IWACO **** Many techniques have been introduced to describe and reason about stateful programs, and to restrict, analyze, and prevent aliases. These include various forms of ownership types, capabilities, separation logic, linear logic, uniqueness, sharing control, escape analysis, argument independence, read-only references, linear references, effect systems, and access control mechanisms. These tools have found their way into type systems, compilers and interpreters, runtime systems and bug-finding tools. Their immediate practical relevance is self-evident from the popularity of Rust, a programming language built around reasoning about aliasing and ownership to enable static memory management and data race freedom, voted the "most beloved" language in the annual Stack Overflow Developer Survey seven times in a row. IWACO'23 will focus on these techniques, on how they can be used to reason about stateful (sequential or concurrent) programs, and how they have been applied to programming languages. In particular, we will consider papers on: models, type systems and other formal systems, programming language mechanisms, analysis and design techniques, patterns and notations for expressing ownership, aliasing, capabilities, uniqueness, and related topics; empirical studies of programs or experience reports from programming systems designed with these techniques in mind; programming logics that deal with aliasing and/or shared state, or use ownership, capabilities or resourcing; applications of capabilities, ownership and other similar type systems in low-level systems such as programming languages runtimes, virtual machines, or compilers; and optimization techniques, analysis algorithms, libraries, applications, and novel approaches exploiting ownership, aliasing, capabilities, uniqueness, and related topics. **** LIVE **** Programming is cognitively demanding, and too difficult. LIVE is a workshop exploring new user interfaces that improve the immediacy, usability, and learnability of programming. Whereas PL research traditionally focuses on programs, LIVE focuses more on the activity of programming. Our goal is to provide a supportive venue where early-stage work receives constructive criticism. Whether graduate students or tenured faculty, researchers need a forum to discuss new ideas and get helpful feedback from their peers. Towards that end, we will allot about ten minutes for discussion after every presentation. **** PAINT **** Programming environments that integrate tools, notations, and abstractions into a holistic user experience can provide programmers with better support for what they want to achieve. These programming environments can create an engaging place to do new forms of informational work - resulting in enjoyable, creative, and productive experiences with programming. In the workshop on Programming Abstractions and Interactive Notations, Tools, and Environments (PAINT), we want to discuss programming environments that support users in working with and creating notations and abstractions that matter to them. We are interested in the relationship between people centric notations and general-purpose programming languages and environments. How do we reflect the various experiences, needs, and priorities of the many people involved in programming ? whether they call it that or not? **** PLF **** Applications supporting multi-device are ubiquitous. While most of the distributed applications that we see nowadays are cloud-based, avoiding the cloud can lead to privacy and performance benefits for users and operational and cost benefits for companies and developers. Following this idea, Local-First Software runs and stores its data locally while still allowing collaboration, thus retaining the benefits of existing collaborative applications without depending on the cloud. Many specific solutions already exist: operational transformation, client-side databases with eventually consistent replication based on CRDTs, and even synchronization as a service provided by commercial offerings, and a vast selection of UI design libraries. However, these solutions are not integrated with the programming languages that applications are developed in. Language based solutions related to distribution such as type systems describing protocols, reliable actor runtimes, data processing, machine learning, etc., are designed and optimized for the cloud not for a loosely connected set of cooperating devices. This workshop aims at bringing the issue to the attention of the PL community, and accelerating the development of suitable solutions for this area. **** REBELS **** Reactive programming and event-based programming are two closely related programming styles that are becoming ever more important with the advent of advanced HPC technology and the ever increasing requirement for our applications to run on the web or on collaborating mobile devices. A number of publications on middleware and language design ? so-called reactive and event-based languages and systems (REBLS) ? have already seen the light, but the field still raises several questions. For example, the interaction with mainstream language concepts is poorly understood, implementation technology is in its infancy and modularity mechanisms are almost totally lacking. Moreover, large applications are still to be developed and patterns and tools for developing reactive applications is an area that is vastly unexplored. This workshop will gather researchers in reactive and event-based languages and systems. The goal of the workshop is to exchange new technical research results and to define better the field by coming up with taxonomies and overviews of the existing work. **** ST30 **** Session types are a type-theoretic approach to specifying communication protocols so that they can be verified by type-checking. This year marks 30 years since the first paper on session types, by Kohei Honda at CONCUR 1993. Since then the topic has attracted increasing interest, and a substantial community and literature have developed. Google Scholar lists almost 400 articles with "session types" in the title, and most programming language conferences now include several papers on session types each year. In terms of the technical focus, there have been continuing theoretical developments (notably the generalisation from two-party to multi-party session types by Honda, Yoshida and Carbone in 2008, and the development of a Curry-Howard correspondence with linear logic by Caires and Pfenning in 2010) and a variety of implementations of session types as programming language extensions or libraries, covering (among others) Haskell, OCaml, Java, Scala, Rust, Python, C#, Go. ST30 is a workshop to celebrate the 30th anniversary of session types by bringing together the community for a day of talks and technical discussion. ====================================================================== Be part of these fantastic events! ====================================================================== Organizing Committee General Chair: Vasco T.

We invite you to consider submitting work to our posters/showpieces, tutorials, and graduate consortium tracks: (due June 28 AoE) Posters and Showpieces (due June 30 AoE) Tutorials ***NEW*** (due July 7 AoE) Graduate Consortium ---------------------- Posters and Showpieces Submission deadline: June 28, 2023 AoE The Posters and Showpieces track (called the ?showpieces track? for short) offers an interactive opportunity to discuss recent research, experiences, challenges, ideas, prototypes, and accomplishments with the VL/HCC community. Formerly called ?posters and demonstrations?, the category now includes posters, videos, downloadable apps, handouts, electronic devices, physical prototypes, or any other artifacts that facilitate meaningful interactions with other conference attendees. A broad range of topics are appropriate for showpieces. The following non-exhaustive list illustrates the possibilities: - Current research in progress. This might include: - Original or innovative technologies or prototypes that may or may not be accompanied by an evaluation - Short qualitative or quantitative studies - Reflections, provocations, or proposals about theory or methods - Results presented in the main VL/HCC conference - Results already presented at another conference or published in a journal - Existing commercial products and/or services - Efforts aimed at integrating research into education - Efforts aimed at commercializing research Showpieces can help accomplish many goals, such as: - Helping graduate student presenters to meet faculty from other universities - Building community interest in a novel way of approaching a research topic - Starting conversations that could lead to new collaborations - Demonstrating to industry sponsors that a specific line of research has practical applications - Showcasing products or services available for sale More details: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://conf.researchr.org/track/vlhcc-2023/vlhcc-2023-posters-and-showpieces__;!!IBzWLUs!UBQw43Q6jSCjn5VvTFbnnukFBjPunO3Ar9rj4L2ItWrVuoj7PlvLDis6LRedeWLJlCortTsYv5uKKfd9zDrtu4moqYvzzw$ Tutorials Submission deadline: June 30, 2023 AoE The 2023 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing (VL/HCC) invites proposals for tutorials to be held in conjunction with the symposium. Tutorials allow conference attendees to expand their knowledge by introducing researchers to emerging areas or new technologies, or providing an overview of the state of the art in an existing research area. Tutorials should be on topics related to the conference, such as (but not limited to) end-user programming, visual programming, domain-specific languages, software visualization, and CS education. Tutorial organizers must submit a proposal package and may either be accepted or rejected. The preferred format for tutorials is either a half day or full-day standalone session. However, we are also happy to consider alternative or experimental topics and formats. If the tutorial is accepted, then both the symposium organizers and the tutorial organizers will publicize the event to help ensure that it draws a sufficient number of attendees. Please note that a tutorial may be cancelled due to low registration if the number of participants (including the organizers) is less than fifteen. Please submit proposals via email by June 30, 2023. Decision notifications will be sent by Friday, July 7, 2023 at the latest.

This development paradigm enables the creation and deployment of fully functional applications using visual abstractions and interfaces and requiring little or no procedural code to empower users in creating software applications for constrained domains, even if they lack a programming background. This goal aligns with the theme of the 2023 VL/HCC main conference. Other areas within the remit of VL/HCC are also welcome. Why You Should Participate - Present your work to a smaller, more attentive audience - Get detailed, critical, constructive feedback from a diverse panel of experts - Meet other students working on similar problems - Travel funding may be available to help cover your cost of attending VL/HCC (details below). Who Can Participate? The consortium is open to both Master?s and PhD students worldwide. Participation is particularly encouraged from PhD students who are close to proposing a thesis, as well as from members of groups identified by NSF as underrepresented in the sciences and engineering. If multiple applicants from a particular university apply for the consortium this year, then no more than two per university will be selected to participate. To be eligible, each applicant may have participated no more than once in the VL/HCC graduate consortia of past years.

You can find more information about the symposium on its oficial website . IFL 2023 will be a venue for researchers to present and discuss new ideas and concepts, work in progress, and publication-ripe results related to the implementation and application of functional languages and function-based programming. See the call for papers in text format . Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - language concepts - type systems, type checking, type inferencing - compilation techniques - staged compilation - run-time function specialization - run-time code generation - partial evaluation - abstract interpretation - metaprogramming - generic programming - automatic program generation - array processing - concurrent/parallel programming - concurrent/parallel program execution - embedded systems - web applications - embedded domain specific languages - security - novel memory management techniques - run-time profiling performance measurements - debugging and tracing - virtual/abstract machine architectures - validation, verification of functional programs - tools and programming techniques - industrial applications PAPER SUBMISSIONS Following IFL tradition, IFL 2023 will use a post-symposium review process to produce the formal proceedings. Before the symposium, authors submit draft papers. These draft papers will be screened by the program chair to make sure that they are within the scope of IFL. The draft papers will be made available to all participants at the symposium. Each draft paper is presented by one of the authors at the symposium. Notice that it is a requirement that accepted draft papers are presented physically at the symposium. After the symposium every presenter is invited to submit a full paper, incorporating feedback from discussions at the symposium. Work submitted to IFL may not be simultaneously submitted to other venues; submissions must adhere to ACM SIGPLAN's republication policy. The program committee will evaluate these submissions according to their correctness, novelty, originality, relevance, significance, and clarity, and will thereby determine whether the paper is accepted or rejected for the formal proceedings. As in previous years, we will try to have the papers that are accepted for the formal proceedings published in the International Conference Proceedings Series of the ACM Digital Library. This possibility will be confirmed as soon as possible. Reviewing is single blind. There will be at least 3 reviews per paper. For the camera-ready version the authors can make minor revisions which are accepted without further reviewing. Papers must use the ACM two columns conference format, which can be found here . (For LaTeX users, start your document with \documentclass[sigconf,screen,review]{acmart}.) All contributions must be written in English. Note that this format has a rather long but limited list of packages that can be used. Please make sure that your document adheres to this list. The page limit for papers is twelve pages (excluding references). Only papers that were presented at the IFL 2023 Symposium will be considered for publication. LOCATION IFL 2023 will be held physically in Braga, Portugal. For more information, click here . [image: beacon] -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Aimed at PhD students in computer science and other areas of science and engineering, the course is a semester-long immersion in effective technical writing and speaking. Since then, I've run it twice more, improving and polishing each time. I think it's pretty good now. :-) In hopes that the course materials may be useful to others, all the slide decks, timeline, readings, and detailed notes for instructors are now publicly available: you can find it all here .

This year marks 30 years since the first paper on session types, by Kohei Honda at CONCUR 1993. Since then the topic has attracted increasing interest, and a substantial community and literature have developed. Google Scholar lists almost 400 articles with "session types" in the title, and most programming language conferences now include several papers on session types each year. In terms of the technical focus, there have been continuing theoretical developments (notably the generalisation from two-party to multi-party session types by Honda, Yoshida and Carbone in 2008, and the development of a Curry-Howard correspondence with linear logic by Caires and Pfenning in 2010) and a variety of implementations of session types as programming language extensions or libraries, covering (among others) Haskell, OCaml, Java, Scala, Rust, Python, C#, Go. We invite submissions to a workshop celebrating 30 years of session types. Submissions can be about any aspect of session types, including but not limited to the topics listed above. The programme will include invited talks, contributed talks, software demonstrations and a panel session. We call for three types of submission: - Research papers with a maximum length of 8 pages (excluding bibliography and appendices). Submitted research papers will be reviewed for novelty, clarity and technical soundness. They must not be submitted simultaneously for publication in other venues. Accepted research papers will appear in the workshop proceedings. - Talk proposals with a maximum length of 2 pages (excluding bibliography and appendices). Talk proposals can be for presentation of ongoing work, or for presentation of work that has already been published elsewhere. Proposals will be reviewed based on their likely interest as contributions to the workshop. Accepted talks will be presented at the workshop, but will not have corresponding papers in the workshop proceedings. - Demo proposals with a maximum length of 2 pages (excluding bibliography and appendices). Demo proposals can be for any programming language, library, tool or other software that is based on session types. Accepted demos will be presented at the workshop, but will not have corresponding papers in the workshop proceedings. Submissions must be formatted in EPTCS style. We intend the proceedings to be published in EPTCS.

Virtual Machines and the languages they implement are crucial in the specification, implementation and/or user-facing deployment of most programming technologies. The VMIL workshop is a forum for researchers and cutting-edge practitioners in language virtual machines, the intermediate languages they use, and related issues. The workshop is intended to be welcoming to a wide range of topics and perspectives, covering all areas relevant to the workshop?s theme. Aspects of interest include, but are not limited to: - design issues in VMs and IRs (e.g. IR design, VM modularity, polyglotism); - compilation (static and dynamic compilation strategies, optimizations, data representations); - memory management; - security considerations; - concurrency (both internal and user-facing); - performance engineering; - tool support and related infrastructure (profiling, debugging, liveness, persistence); - the experience of VM development (use of high-level languages, bootstrapping and self-hosting, reusability, portability, developer tooling, etc.); - empirical studies on related topics, such as usage patterns, the usability of languages or tools, experimental methodology, or benchmark design; - the use of VMs in teaching programming, programming languages, and programming language implementation. ---------------------------------- Submission Guidelines ---------------------------------- We invite high-quality papers in the following two categories: - Research and experience papers: These submissions should describe work that advances the current state of the art in the above or related areas. The suggested length of these submissions is 6?10 pages (maximum 10 pages, excluding references). - Work-in-progress or position papers: These papers should document ongoing efforts in an area of interest which have not yet yielded final results, and/or should present and defend the authors? position on a topic related to the broad area of the workshop. The maximum length of these submissions is 6 pages, but we will consider shorter submissions (e.g. a well-written 2-page abstract). Submissions will be judged on novelty, clarity, timeliness, relevance, and potential to stimulate discussion during the workshop. The workshop has two submission deadlines. For the first submission deadline, all paper types are considered for publication in the ACM Digital Library, except if the authors prefer not to be included. Publication of work-in-progress and position papers at VMIL is not intended to preclude later publication elsewhere. For the second deadline, we will consider only work-in-progress and position papers. These will not be published in the ACM DL, and will only appear on the website.

Both theoretical and experimental papers are welcome. We seek submissions that make principled, enduring contributions to the theory, design, understanding, implementation, or application of programming languages. ### Evaluation Criteria The Program Committee will evaluate the technical contribution of each submission as well as its accessibility to both experts and the general POPL audience. All papers will be judged on significance, originality, relevance, correctness, and clarity. Each paper must explain its scientific contribution in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and comparing it with previous work. Advice on writing technical papers can be found on the [SIGPLAN author information page](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8cylXiz1A$ ). Deadlines and formatting requirements, detailed below, will be strictly enforced. ### Full Double-Blind Reviewing Process POPL 2024 will use a **full double-blind** reviewing process (similar to the one used for POPL 2023 but different from the lightweight double-blind process used in previous years). This means that identities of authors will not be made visible to reviewers until after conditional-acceptance decisions have been made, and then only for the conditionally-accepted papers. The use of full double-blind reviewing has several consequences for authors. * **Submissions**: Authors must omit their names and institutions from their paper submissions. In addition, references to authors' own prior work should be in the third person (e.g., not "We build on our previous work ?" but rather "We build on the work of ?"). * **Supplementary material**: Authors are permitted to provide supplementary material (e.g., detailed proofs, proof scripts, system implementations, or experimental data) along with their submission, which reviewers may (but are not required to) examine. This material may take the form of a single file, such as a PDF or a tarball. **Authors must fully anonymize any supplementary material. Links to supplementary material on external websites are not permitted.** * **Author response**: In responding to reviews, authors should not say anything that reveals their identity, since author identities will not be revealed to reviewers at that stage of the reviewing process. * **Dissemination of work under submission**: Authors are welcome to disseminate their ideas and post draft versions of their paper(s) on their personal website, institutional repository, or arXiv (reviewers will be asked to turn off arXiv notifications during the review period). But authors should not take steps that would almost certainly reveal their identities to members of the Program Committee, e.g., directly contacting PC members or publicizing the work on widely-visible social media or major mailing lists used by the community. The purpose of the above restrictions is to help the Program Committee and external reviewers come to a judgment about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors' identities if they were to try. In particular, nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the quality of the submission. However, there are occasionally cases where adhering to the above restrictions is truly difficult or impossible for one reason or another. In such cases, the authors should contact the Program Chair to discuss the situation and how to handle it. The [FAQ on Double-Blind Reviewing](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://conf.researchr.org/track/POPL-2024/POPL-2024-popl-research-papers*FAQ-on-Double-Blind-Reviewing__;Iw!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8cRcDsI2Y$ ) addresses many common scenarios and answers many common questions about this topic. But there remain many grey areas and trade-offs. If you have any doubts about how to interpret the double-blind rules or you encounter a complex case that is not clearly covered by the FAQ, please contact the Program Chair for guidance. ### Additional Details of the Reviewing Process POPL 2024 will have four Associate Chairs who will help the Program Chair monitor reviews, solicit external expert reviews for submissions when there is not enough expertise on the committee, and facilitate reviewer discussions. As in previous years, authors will have a multi-day period to respond to reviews, as indicated in the Important Dates table. Responses are optional but recommended. A response should address specific points or questions raised in the reviews as well as any erroneous claims made by reviewers; in particular, it should not present new technical results, unless specifically requested by the reviewers. The Program Committee (PC) will discuss papers electronically using the HotCRP conference management system. There will be no physical or synchronous PC meeting; this will avoid the time, cost, and environmental impact of transporting an increasingly large committee to one point on the globe. There is also no formal External Program Committee or Extended Review Committee, though experts outside the committee will be consulted as needed. Paper decisions will be accompanied by a "meta-review" summarizing the reasoning behind the committee's decision. To conform with ACM requirements for journal publication, all POPL papers will be subject to two rounds of review. At the end of the first round, the PC will select a set of _conditionally accepted_ papers, each with a clear list of mandatory revisions that the authors must implement in order for the paper to be accepted. For the second round, authors of conditionally accepted papers will then be required to submit a short description of how they have revised the paper, including how the mandatory revisions have been implemented. The PC will then check the revisions and make final acceptance decisions. Authors of conditionally accepted papers must submit a satisfactory revision to the PC by the second-round deadline or risk rejection. For additional information about the reviewing process, see: [Principles of POPL](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.sigplan.org/Conferences/POPL/Principles/__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8cmC0UwaE$ ), a presentation of the underlying organizational and reviewing policies for POPL. For POPL 2024, policies specified in this Call for Papers supersede those in the Principles of POPL document. ### Submission Site Information The submission site is https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://popl24.hotcrp.com__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8cDYVkG3M$ . Authors can submit multiple times prior to the deadline. Only the last submission will be reviewed. There is no abstract deadline. The submission site requires entering author names and affiliations, relevant topics, and potential conflicts. Addition or removal of authors after the submission deadline will need to be approved by the Program Chair (as this kind of change potentially undermines the goal of eliminating conflicts during paper assignment). The submission deadline is 11:59 PM on July 11, 2023, Anywhere on Earth: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anywhere_on_Earth__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8c88KckD8$ ### Conflicts of Interest For each submission, the authors must make sure that they properly declare all potential conflicts of interest for all of the authors of that submission. This includes marking PC conflicts as well as ?Other Conflicts (external)?. A conflict caught late in the reviewing process leads to a voided review which may be infeasible to replace. Conflicts should be declared between an adviser and an advisee (e.g., Ph.D., post-doc; forever), between an author and a co-author (papers and proposals; for two years), between people at the same institution (branches of large companies or different locations of research institutes are considered to be the same institution; for two years after leaving an institution), between people with financial conflicts of interest, and between relatives. Please do not declare spurious conflicts: such incorrect conflicts are especially harmful if the aim is to exclude potential reviewers, so spurious conflicts can be grounds for rejection. If you are unsure about a conflict, please ask the Program Chair. ### Submission Guidelines Prior to the paper submission deadline, authors should upload their full anonymized paper. Here are some key requirements concerning paper submissions: * Each paper should have no more than **25 pages of text, excluding bibliography**, using the PACMPL format (specifically, the `acmart` LaTeX class with `acmsmall` option). It is a single-column page layout with a 10 pt font, 12 pt line spacing, and wider margins than recent POPL page layouts. In this format, the main text block is 5.478 in (13.91 cm) wide and 7.884 in (20.03 cm) tall. Use of a different format (e.g., smaller fonts or a larger text block) is grounds for summary rejection. The PACMPL template for LaTeX can be found at the [SIGPLAN author information page](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8cylXiz1A$ ), and further information about PACMPL submissions can be found on the [PACMPL author guidelines page](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://dl.acm.org/journal/pacmpl/author-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8c4wMPXQI$ ). PACMPL does not support submissions in Microsoft Word. * We strongly encourage use of the `review` and `screen` options in order to make submissions easier to review. * We strongly encourage use of author-year citations, since that is the citation format required by PACMPL for final versions of accepted papers. * Submissions should be in PDF and printable on both US Letter and A4 paper. Papers may be resubmitted to the submission site multiple times up until the deadline, but the last version submitted before the deadline will be the version reviewed. Papers that exceed the length requirement or deviate from the expected format will be rejected. * Submitted papers must adhere to the [SIGPLAN Republication Policy](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8cv_Kl2bU$ ) and the [ACM Policy on Plagiarism](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism-overview__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8cibiaVxE$ ). Concurrent paper submissions to other conferences, workshops, journals, or similar forums of publication are not allowed. * Authors are free to submit supplementary material along with their submissions, but it must be fully anonymized. * Authors must list all their conflicts of interest (both PC conflicts and external conflicts) in the HotCRP submission form. * Authors may include additional information in a field of the HotCRP submission form labeled "Confidential Comments for the Program Chair". This information need not be anonymized. It can be used to inform the Program Chair, for example, about sensitive issues concerning a conflict with a PC member or about supplementary material that cannot be anonymized. It is left to the discretion of the Program Chair what to do with this information. * If for some reason an author feels uncomfortable discussing a sensitive issue with the Program Chair (or communicating via the "Confidential Comments" field in HotCRP), they should feel free to get in touch instead with any of the Associate Chairs, with whom they can discuss the issue in confidence. * Submissions from PC members (except the Program Chair) are permitted and will not be handled any differently than other submissions. This is in accordance with a recent change in policy approved by the SIGPLAN Executive Committee: SIGPLAN conferences that use full double-blind review and whose PCs have at least 50 members need not hold PC submissions to a higher standard. ### Artifact Evaluation for Accepted Papers Authors of conditionally accepted papers will be invited to formally submit supporting materials to the Artifact Evaluation process. Artifact Evaluation is run by a separate committee whose task is to assess how the artifacts support the work described in the papers. Artifact submission is strongly encouraged but voluntary and will not influence the final decision regarding the papers. Papers that go through the Artifact Evaluation process successfully will receive a seal of approval printed on the papers themselves. Authors of accepted papers are encouraged to make these materials publicly available upon publication of the proceedings, by including them as "source materials" in the ACM Digital Library. ### Copyright, Publication, and Presentation As a Gold Open Access journal, PACMPL is committed to making peer-reviewed scientific research free of restrictions on both access and (re-)use. Authors are strongly encouraged to support libre open access by licensing their work with the [Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY) license](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8cP57oLnI$ ), which grants readers liberal (re-)use rights. Authors of accepted papers will be required to choose one of the following publication rights: * Author licenses the work with a [Creative Commons license](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://creativecommons.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!TIrFlGsxQs3aFiudn144vNx3LZrv2E03gNjGx8IoabKEfT9frYDMD9WOGBDBPY9bJWYvkOPXJFZju97L9fyQYJzr3UMO6cz3P5jsMY8c2aWZDrw$ ), retains copyright, and (implicitly) grants ACM non-exclusive permission to publish (suggested choice). * Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM a non-exclusive permission to publish license. * Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM an exclusive permission to publish license. * Author transfers copyright of the work to ACM. These choices follow from ACM Copyright Policy and ACM Author Rights, corresponding to ACM's "author pays" option. While PACMPL may ask authors who have funding for open-access fees to voluntarily cover the article processing charge (currently, US$400), payment is not required for publication. PACMPL and SIGPLAN continue to explore the best models for funding open access, focusing on approaches that are sustainable in the long-term while reducing short-term risk. All papers will be archived by the ACM Digital Library. Authors will have the option of including supplementary material with their paper. The official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. Authors of accepted papers are required to give a short talk (precise length still to be determined, but typically between 15 and 25 minutes) at the conference, according to the conference schedule. ### Distinguished Paper Awards At most 10% of the accepted papers of POPL 2024 will be designated as Distinguished Papers. This award highlights papers that the Program Committee thinks should be read by a broad audience due to their relevance, originality, significance, and clarity. The selection of the distinguished papers will be made based on the final version of the paper and through an additional review process. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The goal of this workshop is to bring together the implementors of a variety of languages with advanced type systems. The main focus is on the practical issues that come up in the implementation of these systems, rather than the theoretical frameworks that underlie them. In particular, we want to encourage exchanging ideas between the communities around specific systems that would otherwise be accessible to only a very select group. The workshop will have a mix of invited and contributed talks, organized discussion times, and informal collaboration time. We invite participants to share their experiences, study differences among the implementations, and generalize lessons from those. We also want to promote the creation of a shared vocabulary and set of best practices for implementing type systems. Here are a few examples of topics we are interested to discuss: - ? syntax with binders and substitution - ? conversion modulo beta and eta - ? implicit arguments and metavariables - ? unification and constraint solving - ? metaprogramming and tactic languages - ? editor integration and automation - ? discoverability of language features - ? pretty printing and error messages This list is not exhaustive, so please contact the PC chairs in case you are unsure if a topic falls within the scope of the workshop. === Paper categories === We are looking for contributions in two categories: - Discussion proposals (1 page abstract) should highlight a particular technique or aspect of type system implementation that is applicable to different programming languages. These should not present novel ideas, but rather focus on building a shared understanding between the different communities working on type systems. - Talk proposals (1 page abstract) should present a novel idea or technique, an implementation of a new type system feature (which can be work in progress), or highlight a particular problem that came up in the implementation of a type system. Both types of contribution will be evaluated based on their relevance, clarity, and their potential to generate interesting discussions. We especially welcome submissions from people who are new to the field or work in adjacent areas. Reviewing will be single blind, so there is no need to anonymize submissions. Accepted submissions will be made available publicly on the WITS website. There are no formal proceedings, so you are free to submit work that has also been submitted elsewhere. === Program Committee === PC Chairs: - Jesper Cockx (Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands) - Richard Eisenberg (Jane Street, USA) Committee Members: - Guillaume Allais (University of Strathclyde, Scotland) - Alexis King (Tweag Software Innovation Lab, France) - Xavier Leroy (Coll?ge de France, France) - Jon Sterling (Aarhus University, Denmark) - Sebastian Ullrich (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

SPECIAL SESSION: MOVIE SCREENING ?JOURNEYS OF BLACK MATHEMATICIANS? In a special session at WoLLIC 2023, we will show clips from a documentary film that explores the groundbreaking achievements of African American mathematicians. "Journeys of Black Mathematicians" (zalafilms.com) is a powerful film that traces the history of these pioneering individuals and their impact on mathematics. This film is not only a tribute to their achievements, but also an inspiration for Black and other minority students to pursue their studies and consider careers in mathematics. The film is currently in production and its filmmaker, George Csicsery, has agreed to give us a sneak peek. He will also be available via Zoom to hear feedback and answer questions.

Submissions by July 14 will get full consideration for funding, but we'll continue on a rolling basis after that as long as we have funding. More info is below and on the website , and feel free to contact us with questions! Thanks in advance - Kristopher Micinski and Stefan Muller PLMW at ICFP 2023 Co-chairs P.S. If your students are interested but the timing of ICFP doesn?t work out this year, PLMW @ SPLASH is just around the corner with a slightly later deadline! -------------------- ACM SIGPLAN Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop, Seattle, Washington, US Monday, September 4, 2023 PLMW is a workshop co-located with ICFP 2023 (the International Conference on Functional Programming) in Seattle, WA, from September 4-9. The purpose of this mentoring workshop is to encourage graduate students and senior undergraduate students to pursue careers in programming language research. This workshop will bring together world leaders in programming languages research and teaching from academia and industry to help students imagine how they might contribute to our research community. Topics will range from the abstract (e.g., what is PL research and how does one become involved in it) to the concrete (e.g., how to navigate an academic conference, how to pick a research area) as well as technical talks on cutting-edge topics. We especially encourage women and underrepresented minority students, and people with disabilities to attend PLMW. This workshop is part of the activities surrounding ICFP, and takes place the day before the main conference. One goal of the workshop is to make the ICFP conference more accessible to newcomers. We hope that participants will stay through the entire conference. Note that ICFP and PLMW are planned to be largely in-person events. While we recognize that travel to conferences is not easy for everyone, we do hope you will be able to join us in person to get the most out of the conference and its community-building aspects. A number of sponsors have generously donated scholarship funds for qualified students to attend PLMW. These scholarships can cover expenses (airfare, hotel, and registration fees) for attendance at both the workshop and the ICFP conference. Students attending this year will get one year free student membership of SIGPLAN, unless they prefer to opt out during their application. The workshop registration is open to all. Students with alternative sources of funding are welcome as well. APPLICATION FOR PLMW TRAVEL FUNDING: For full consideration for scholarship funding, please apply at the link below by July 14, AoE. We will notify accepted attendees in a rolling fashion until all funding is committed.

Sorbonne Paris Nord, FR) ================================================================== ++ SCOPE AND TOPICS Concurrency and Logics are two of the most active research areas in the theoretical computer science domain. The literature in these fields is extensive and provides a plethora of logics and models for reasoning about intelligent and distributed systems. More recently, the interplay of concurrency and logic with areas such as: 1. design, verification, synthesis for concurrent systems, both qualitative and quantitative; 2. strategic reasoning for distributed and multi-agent systems; 3. analysis and validation techniques for concurrent and distributed programs, such as advanced type systems and separation logics; has received much attention, as witnessed by recent editions of AI conferences. All these examples share the challenge of developing novel theories and tools for automated reasoning that take into account the behavior of concurrent and multi-agent entities. The workshop aims to bring together researchers working on different aspects of logic and concurrency in AI, multi-agent systems, and computer science, both from a theoretical and a practical point of view. Besides, it aims to promote research on Foundation of AI in other research communities that are traditionally Theoretical Computer Science-oriented. The topics covered by the workshop include, but are not limited to, the following: Concurrency Theory; Programming languages and semantics; Formal models for communication-based, concurrent and distributed systems; Logics in concurrency; Logics for verification of (concurrent) multi-agent systems; Logical foundations of decision theory for multi-agent systems; Knowledge representation; Programming languages; ++ SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Submitted contributions should not exceed 3 pages (not including references) using the EasyChair format. Submitted papers should be formatted in PDF and uploaded to https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=radical2023__;!!IBzWLUs!WNbrnKs66Vl5-6RNDKhM8NEM0GH4qPCMfSRvPEbmvCMjHbb28EGBZ2Q04pG_P2nQNA1mnnFq-A04yYYt8ICACtLXhXFK-N95_RiI$ We invite submissions describing talk proposals on the intersection of logic and concurrency. A submission to RADICAL would typically fall within one of the following categories: reports of an ongoing work and/or preliminary results; summaries of an already published paper (or series of papers); overviews of (recent) PhD theses; descriptions of research projects and consortia; manifestos, calls to action, personal views on current and future challenges; overviews of interesting yet underrepresented problems. This list is by no means exhaustive but merely indicative. Submissions based on already published works should include explicit references/links as appropriate. Reviewers may read such prior published works, but are not obliged to do so. Submissions will be judged by the program committee on the basis of significance, relevance, and potential of an engaging, compelling talk at the workshop. Submission from PC members is encouraged. It is understood that for each accepted submission one of the co-authors will attend the workshop and give the talk. No Proceedings: RADICAL will be an informal venue, oriented to interaction, so there will be no formal proceedings. ++ IMPORTANT DATES ** Submission deadline: 30 June 2023. ** Notification to authors: 28 July 2023. ** Workshop: 18th September 2023, in Antwerp (Belgium). ++ WORKSHOP CO-CHAIRS Giuseppe Perelli (Sapienza University of Rome, Italy) Jorge A.

Challenges in one area were often approached using ideas/techniques developed in the other, and advances in one area enabled new capabilities in the other. Today, although the systems community at large retains an iron grip on C, modern programming language ideas continue to spark innovations in OS design and construction. Conversely, the systems field continues to provide a wealth of challenging problems and practical results that should lead to advances in programming languages, software designs, and idioms. This workshop will bring together researchers and developers from the programming language and operating system domains to discuss recent work at the intersection of these fields. It will be a platform for discussing new visions, challenges, experiences, problems, and solutions arising from the application of advanced programming and software engineering concepts to operating systems construction, and vice versa. Suggested paper topics include, but are not restricted to: * domain-specific and type-safe languages for the OS; * the design of language-specific unikernels; * language-based approaches to crosscutting system concerns, such as security and run-time performance; * PL support for system verification, testing, and debugging; * synthesis of OS code; * static/dynamic OS configuration and specialization; * PL support for OS integration of modern hardware (NVM, HBM, FPGAs, accelerators, RDMA, etc.); * the use of OS abstractions and techniques in language runtimes; * verification and static analysis of OS components; * critical evaluations of new programming language ideas in support of OS construction; and * experience reports on applying new language techniques in commercial OS settings. AGENDA The workshop will be a highly interactive event with an agenda designed to promote focused and lively discussions. Part of the workshop program will be based on paper presentations. PLOS welcomes research, experience, and position papers; papers describing industrial experience are particularly encouraged. The set of accepted papers will be made available to registered attendees in advance of the workshop. Participants should come to the workshop prepared with questions and comments.

The goal of this workshop is to bring together the implementors of a variety of languages with advanced type systems. The main focus is on the practical issues that come up in the implementation of these systems, rather than the theoretical frameworks that underlie them. In particular, we want to encourage exchanging ideas between the communities around specific systems that would otherwise be accessible to only a very select group. The workshop will have a mix of invited and contributed talks, organized discussion times, and informal collaboration time. We invite participants to share their experiences, study differences among the implementations, and generalize lessons from those. We also want to promote the creation of a shared vocabulary and set of best practices for implementing type systems. > > Here are a few examples of topics we are interested to discuss: > > - ? syntax with binders and substitution > - ? conversion modulo beta and eta > - ? implicit arguments and metavariables > - ? unification and constraint solving > - ? metaprogramming and tactic languages > - ? editor integration and automation > - ? discoverability of language features > - ? pretty printing and error messages > > This list is not exhaustive, so please contact the PC chairs in case you are unsure if a topic falls within the scope of the workshop. > > === Paper categories === > > We are looking for contributions in two categories: > > - Discussion proposals (1 page abstract) should highlight a particular technique or aspect of type system implementation that is applicable to different programming languages.

This year marks 30 years since the first paper on session types, by Kohei Honda at CONCUR 1993. Since then the topic has attracted increasing interest, and a substantial community and literature have developed. Google Scholar lists almost 400 articles with "session types" in the title, and most programming language conferences now include several papers on session types each year. In terms of the technical focus, there have been continuing theoretical developments (notably the generalisation from two-party to multi-party session types by Honda, Yoshida and Carbone in 2008, and the development of a Curry-Howard correspondence with linear logic by Caires and Pfenning in 2010) and a variety of implementations of session types as programming language extensions or libraries, covering (among others) Haskell, OCaml, Java, Scala, Rust, Python, C#, Go. We invite submissions to a workshop celebrating 30 years of session types. Submissions can be about any aspect of session types, including but not limited to the topics listed above. The programme will include invited talks, contributed talks, software demonstrations and a panel session. We call for three types of submission: - Research papers with a maximum length of 8 pages (excluding bibliography and appendices). Submitted research papers will be reviewed for novelty, clarity and technical soundness. They must not be submitted simultaneously for publication in other venues. Accepted research papers will appear in the workshop proceedings. - Talk proposals with a maximum length of 2 pages (excluding bibliography and appendices). Talk proposals can be for presentation of ongoing work, or for presentation of work that has already been published elsewhere. Proposals will be reviewed based on their likely interest as contributions to the workshop. Accepted talks will be presented at the workshop, but will not have corresponding papers in the workshop proceedings. - Demo proposals with a maximum length of 2 pages (excluding bibliography and appendices). Demo proposals can be for any programming language, library, tool or other software that is based on session types. Accepted demos will be presented at the workshop, but will not have corresponding papers in the workshop proceedings. Submissions must be formatted in EPTCS style and the proceedings will be published in EPTCS.

Its applications span a range of domains, including model-based system design, software engineering, and automated theorem proving. For instance, designing a controller that guides the behavior of a reactive system, that is, a system that continually interacts with its environment, can be framed as a synthesis problem. Similarly, the design and verification of a distributed system often depend on distributed synthesis, which finds programs that enforce correct component interaction and satisfy desired specifications. The third edition of the Summer School on Formal Methods for Cyber-Physical Systems offers an in-depth exploration of reactive synthesis, a topic that was already introduced in the first edition of the school. The lecturers will provide a systematic account of the main achievements and the current trends of research in reactive synthesis, covering both theory and applications. The course will begin with an overview of the classical synthesis problem in the finite-state setting, as originally formulated by Church and solved by Buechi and Landweber. This introductory part will introduce the terminology of infinite two-player games, explain the automatic construction of winning strategies in ?regular games?, and address history of the subject, discussing extensions and open problems. From there, the course will investigate approaches for making reactive synthesis more efficient and practical, including techniques for solving the synthesis problem in restricted settings, for decomposing the problem into subproblems, and for employing algorithms, data structures, and heuristics to manage complexity. Variants of the synthesis problem will also be explored, such as control strategies for hybrid and distributed systems, monitor synthesis, synthesis under incomplete information, distributed synthesis, and symmetric synthesis. The implementation of synthesis tools will also receive significant attention, with a focus on recent advances and applications of UPPAAL Stratego and the SYNTCOMP reactive synthesis competition. The summer school will conclude with a workshop on emerging research trends in synthesis, monitoring, and learning, which showcases some exciting interactions between formal methods and machine learning. Distinguished invited speakers will lead the workshop. Participants will also have the opportunity to engage with peers from around the world and may propose to deliver short research talks voluntarily. ### Lecturers Wolfgang Thomas - RWTH Aachen University, Germany 3-hour lecture on ?Synthesis of strategies in infinite two-player games? We give an introduction to the synthesis of reactive systems in the finite-state setting, using the terminology of infinite two-player games and explaining the automatic construction of winning strategies in ?regular games?. We also address the history of the subject, discuss extensions, and mention basic problems that are still open. Martin Zimmermann - Aalborg University, Denmark 3-hour lecture on ?Synthesis of infinite-state systems? The reactive synthesis problem asks to compute, from a given specification of the input-output behavior of a reactive system, a system satisfying this specification (or to determine that no such system exists). In this lecture, we consider the synthesis of infinite-state systems with a focus on pushdown systems, which model simple recursive systems with finite data. On a technical level, we show how to solve infinite games on configuration graphs of pushdown automata and present recent work on generalizations to history-deterministic pushdown automata. Kim G. Larssen - Aalborg University, Denmark 3-hour lecture on ?Synthesis and Optimization for Cyber Physical Systems? In these lectures we will present recent advances and applications of the tool UPPAAL Stratego (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.uppaal.org__;!!IBzWLUs!Uq7PJNDJIe4s9sDXKGsX19HyVRHpCRkDhhV_56Vv017aAnQv3Db5A98Yazr09ua3U50pipBpNweuQHszrknr2CaHv1C25Ku25jDz5EvILA$ ) supporting automatic synthesis of guaranteed safe and near-optimal control strategies for Cyber Physical Systems (CPS). UPPAAL Stratego combines symbolic methods from model checking, reinforcement learning methods from machine learning, as well as abstraction techniques for hybrid games. Trade-offs between efficiency of strategy representation and degree of optimality subject to safety constraints will be discussed, as well as successful applications (autonomous driving maneuvers, heating systems and traffic control). Dana Fisman - Ben Gurion University of the Negev, Israel 3-hour lecture on ?Automata learning of languages of finite and infinite words? In these lectures we will get acquainted with the research area called grammatical inference or automata learning. We will start with the earliest results on the subject, and span different learning paradigms. We will describe several positive results, and efficient algorithms for learning regular languages. We will prove several negative results for learning different classes of languages in different learning paradigms. We will then discuss state-of-the-art results on learning regular languages of infinite words. Swen Jacobs - CISPA Helmholtz-Center for Information Security, Germany 3-hour lecture on ?Reactive synthesis: towards practice? I will give an overview of different lines of research that try to make reactive synthesis (more) practical. This includes research into approaches to restrict the problem to more efficiently solvable fragments, into ways to split the problem into subproblems that can be solved independently or iteratively, and into efficient algorithms and data structures as well as heuristics that allow us to implement synthesis tools that can solve problems of significant size. I will report on progress observed in the reactive synthesis competition (SYNTCOMP), and on case studies and benchmark problems that demonstrate the capabilities of state-of-the-art synthesis tools. Alessandro Cimatti - Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Italy 3-hour lecture on ?Runtime verification and monitor synthesis? Runtime Verification (RV) is a lightweight verification technique that aims at checking whether a run of a system under scrutiny (SUS) satisfies or violates a given correctness specification. The lecture will first overview the general framework of RV, and the techniques to synthesize run-time monitors that can be efficiently executed in combination with the SUS. Then, we will cover the relationship between RV and the field of Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI). In FDI, runtime monitors are built taking into account models of the SUS, in order to monitor the occurrence of internal (faulty) conditions that are not directly observable. ### Programme Monday, August 28 13:30 - 14:00 Registration 14:00 - 14:30 Course Introduction 14:30 - 16:00 Wolfgang Thomas 16:00 - 16:30 Coffee break 16:30 - 18:00 Wolfgang Thomas Tuesday, August 29 09:30 - 11:00 Martin Zimmermann 11:00 - 11:30 Coffee break 11:30 - 13:00 Martin Zimmermann 13:00 - 14:00 Lunch 14:30 - 16:00 Kim G.

Information on how to register will be presented later. Scope ________________ FACS 2023 is concerned with how formal methods can be applied to component-based software and system development. Formal methods have provided foundations for component-based software through research on mathematical models for components, composition and adaptation, and rigorous approaches to verification, deployment, testing, and certification. Furthermore, we embrace a trend in recent FACS editions by introducing a new special track of ?Formal Methods at Large?: it will accept submissions about advances based on formal methods across all kinds of software-intensive systems, possibly unrelated to components or composition. Topics ________________ The conference seeks to address the applications of formal methods in all aspects of software components and services. FACS aims at developing a community-based understanding of relevant and emerging research problems through formal paper presentations and lively discussions. FACS 2023 welcomes contributions including but not limited to: - Formal methods, models, and languages for software-intensive systems, components and services, including * verification techniques (e.g., model checking, type systems, testing, runtime analysis), * probabilistic techniques, * (co-)simulation techniques, * composition and deployment, * component interaction, * software variability, * QoS and other non-functional properties (e.g., trust, compliance, security, privacy); - Formal aspects of concrete software-intensive systems, including * service-oriented architectures, * business processes, * cloud or edge computing, * real-time/safety-critical systems, * hybrid and cyber physical systems, * quantum systems, * components that use artificial intelligence; - Tools supporting formal methods for components and services; - Case studies and experience reports over the above topics; - Special track: Formal Methods at Large. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of FACS, we also invite submissions on the topic of ?component-based systems through the years? that describe important results and successful stories that originated in the context of component-based software engineering. All the accepted papers will be presented in a special session. Submissions ________________ We solicit high-quality submissions reporting on: * A - full papers: original research, applications and experiences, surveys, or anniversary papers (16 pages); * B - short papers: tools and demonstrations (6 pages); * C - journal-first papers (4 pages). Accepted papers from all categories will be published by Springer, in the Lecture Notes for Computer Science series. The page limit excludes references and appendices. Papers should be prepared in LaTeX, adhering to the Springer LNCS format and Guidelines. For further information please visit the LNCS page athttps://www.springer.com/lncs. Please use the easychair link below to submit your paper: * https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=facs2023__;!!IBzWLUs!U9i8TgAMTi_g4yB9qqnv0d7BunHN38VbHT5Xbs5qfTjN-wbYDotq4tBa7tNHs-QGP7pnfFGq5dsRWGYldXnqIWCbLhFpdJapgL77W3TRrA$ The authors of a selected subset of accepted papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their papers to a special issue of Science of Computer Programming. Full and tool/short publications (A, B) ________________ All submissions in categories A and B must be original, unpublished, and not submitted concurrently for publication elsewhere. A special journal issue is planned for extended versions of selected papers from categories A and B from FACS 2023. Journal-first publications (C) ________________ Submissions in category C must be 4-page abstracts of journal papers published after January 1st, 2023. Authors of published papers in high-quality journals can submit a proposal to present their journal paper at FACS. The journal paper must adhere to the following criteria: * It is clearly in the scope of FACS. * It is recent: only journal papers available after January 1st, 2023 (online or printed) can be presented. * It reports new research results that significantly extend prior work. As such, the journal paper does not simply extend prior work with material presented for completeness only (such as omitted proofs, algorithms, minor enhancements, or empirical results). * It has not been presented at, and is not under consideration for, journal-first programs of other similar conferences or workshops. Journal-first submissions must be marked as such in EasyChair, and they must explicitly include pointers to the journal publication (such as a DOI).

The conference will be hosted in Lisbon, Portugal. https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://conf.researchr.org/home/gpce-2023/__;!!IBzWLUs!RvT5Niubp-zBTIyVFod1ubat9KGp108sbwuTpAVvp5pylNQ4S_vVrVq1B5JzO9eTLsQQRwgQB7AXDEDUaesoYBYmRByisvbR$ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New in GPCE 2023: This year, GPCE considers the following additional topics of interest: * AI/ML techniques for generating code, and * low code / no code approaches. Also, GPCE solicits an additional paper category: * Generative Pearl: is an elegant essay about generative programming. Examples include but are not limited to an interesting application of generative programming and an elegant presentation of a (new or old) data structure using generative programming (similar to Functional Pearl in ICFP and Pearl in ECOOP). --------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS --------------------------- The ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences (GPCE) is a programming languages conference focusing on techniques and tools for code generation, language implementation, and product-line development. GPCE seeks conceptual, theoretical, empirical, and technical contributions to its topics of interest, which include but are not limited to: * program transformation, staging, * macro systems, preprocessors, * program synthesis, * code-recommendation systems, * domain-specific languages, * generative language workbenches, * language embedding, language design, * feature-oriented programming, * domain engineering, * feature interactions, * applications and properties of code generation, * language implementation, * product-line development, * (NEW!) AI/ML techniques for generating code, and * (NEW!) low code / no code approaches. GPCE promotes cross-fertilization between programming languages and software development and among different styles of generative programming in its broadest sense. Authors are welcome to check with the PC chair whether their planned papers are in scope. --------------------------- PAPER CATEGORIES --------------------------- GPCE solicits four kinds of submissions: * Full Papers: reporting original and unpublished results of research that contribute to scientific knowledge for any GPCE topics. Full paper submissions must not exceed 12 pages excluding the bibliography. * Short Papers: presenting unconventional ideas or new visions in any GPCE topics. Short papers do not always contain complete results as in the case of full papers, but can introduce new ideas to the community and get early feedback. Note that short papers are not intended to be position statements. Accepted short papers are included in the proceedings and will be presented at the conference. Short paper submissions must not exceed 6 pages excluding the bibliography, and must have the text ?(Short Paper)? appended to their titles. * Tool Demonstrations: presenting tools for any GPCE topics. Tools must be available for use and must not be purely commercial. Submissions must provide a tool description not exceeding 6 pages excluding bibliography and a separate demonstration outline including screenshots also not exceeding 6 pages. Tool demonstration submissions must have the text ?(Tool Demonstration)? appended to their titles. If they are accepted, tool descriptions will be included in the proceedings. The demonstration outline will only be used for evaluating the submission. * (NEW!) Generative Pearl: is an elegant essay about generative programming. Examples include but are not limited to an interesting application of generative programming and an elegant presentation of a (new or old) data structure using generative programming (similar to Functional Pearl in ICFP and Pearl in ECOOP). Accepted Generative Pearl papers are included in the proceedings and will be presented at the conference. Generative Pearl submissions must not exceed 12 pages excluding the bibliography (but may be shorter), and must have the text ?(Generative Pearl)? appended to their titles. --------------------------- PAPER SELECTION --------------------------- The GPCE program committee will evaluate each submission according to the following selection criteria: * Novelty. Papers must present new ideas or evidence and place them appropriately within the context established by previous research in the field. * Significance. The results in the paper must have the potential to add to the state of the art or practice in significant ways. * Evidence. The paper must present evidence supporting its claims. Examples of evidence include formalizations and proofs, implemented systems, experimental results, statistical analyses, and case studies. * Clarity. The paper must present its contributions and results clearly. --------------------------- BEST PAPER AWARD --------------------------- Following the tradition, the GPCE 2023 program committee will select the best paper among accepted papers. The authors of the best paper will be given the best paper award at the conference. --------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------------------- - Abstract submission: July 10th (Monday) - Paper submission: July 14th (Friday) - Review notification: August 23rd (Wednesday) - Author response: August 25th (Friday) - Final notification: September 3rd (Sunday) - Camera-ready due: September 10th (Sunday) - SPLASH 2023: October 22nd - 27th All times are in AoE (Anywhere on Earth). --------------------------- PAPER SUBMISSION --------------------------- Papers must be submitted using HotCRP: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://gpce2023.hotcrp.com/__;!!IBzWLUs!RvT5Niubp-zBTIyVFod1ubat9KGp108sbwuTpAVvp5pylNQ4S_vVrVq1B5JzO9eTLsQQRwgQB7AXDEDUaesoYBYmRPf2Mkde$ All submissions must use the ACM SIGPLAN Conference Format "acmart".

CPP spans areas of computer science, mathematics, logic, and education. CPP 2024 (https://popl24.sigplan.org/home/CPP-2024 ) will be held on 15-16 January 2024 and will be co-located with POPL 2024 in London, UK. CPP 2024 is sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN, in cooperation with ACM SIGLOG. CPP 2024 will welcome contributions from all members of the community. The CPP 2024 organizers will strive to enable both in-person and remote participation, in cooperation with the POPL 2024 organizers. IMPORTANT DATES * Abstract Submission Deadline: 12 September 2023 at 23:59 AoE (UTC-12h) * Paper Submission Deadline: 19 September 2023 at 23:59 AoE (UTC-12h) * Notification (tentative): 21 November 2023 * Camera Ready Deadline (tentative): Mid December 2023 (TBA) * Conference: 15-16 January 2024 Deadlines expire at the end of the day, anywhere on earth. Abstract and submission deadlines are strict and there will be no extensions. DISTINGUISHED PAPER AWARDS Around 10% of the accepted papers at CPP 2024 will be designated as Distinguished Papers. This award highlights papers that the CPP program committee thinks should be read by a broad audience due to their relevance, originality, significance and clarity. TOPICS OF INTEREST We welcome submissions in research areas related to formal certification of programs and proofs. The following is a non-exhaustive list of topics of interest to CPP: * certified or certifying programming, compilation, linking, OS kernels, runtime systems, security monitors, and hardware; * certified mathematical libraries and mathematical theorems; * proof assistants (e.g, ACL2, Agda, Coq, Dafny, F*, HOL4, HOL Light, Idris, Isabelle, Lean, Mizar, Nuprl, PVS, etc); * new languages and tools for certified programming; * program analysis, program verification, and program synthesis; * program logics, type systems, and semantics for certified code; * logics for certifying concurrent and distributed systems; * mechanized metatheory, formalized programming language semantics, and logical frameworks; * higher-order logics, dependent type theory, proof theory, logical systems, separation logics, and logics for security; * verification of correctness and security properties; * formally verified blockchains and smart contracts; * certificates for decision procedures, including linear algebra, polynomial systems, SAT, SMT, and unification in algebras of interest; * certificates for semi-decision procedures, including equality, first-order logic, and higher-order unification; * certificates for program termination; * formal models of computation; * mechanized (un)decidability and computational complexity proofs; * formally certified methods for induction and coinduction; * integration of interactive and automated provers; * logical foundations of proof assistants; * applications of AI and machine learning to formal certification; * user interfaces for proof assistants and theorem provers; * teaching mathematics and computer science with proof assistants. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Prior to the paper submission deadline, the authors should upload their anonymized paper in PDF format through the HotCRP system at https://cpp2024.hotcrp.com The submissions must be written in English and provide sufficient detail to allow the program committee to assess the merits of the contribution. They must be formatted following the ACM SIGPLAN Proceedings format using the acmart style with the sigplan option, which provides a two-column style, using 10 point font for the main text, and a header for double blind review submission, i.e., \documentclass[sigplan,10pt,anonymous,review]{acmart}\settopmatter{printfolios=true,printccs=false,printacmref=false} The submitted papers should not exceed 12 pages, including tables and figures, but excluding bibliography and clearly marked appendices. The papers should be self-contained without the appendices. Shorter papers are welcome and will be given equal consideration. Submissions not conforming to the requirements concerning format and maximum length may be rejected without further consideration. CPP 2024 will employ a lightweight double-blind reviewing process following the process from previous years. To facilitate this, the submissions must adhere to two rules: (1) author names and institutions must be omitted, and (2) references to authors? own related work should be in the third person (e.g., not "We build on our previous work ..." but rather "We build on the work of ..."). The purpose of this process is to help the PC and external reviewers come to an initial judgment about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing it more difficult. In particular, important background references should not be omitted or anonymized. In addition, authors are free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their papers as usual. For example, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web or give talks on their research ideas. Note that POPL 2024 itself will employ full double-blind reviewing, which differs from the light-weight CPP process. This FAQ from previous SIGPLAN conference addresses many common concerns: https://popl20.sigplan.org/track/POPL-2020-Research-Papers#Submission-and-Reviewing-FAQ We strongly encourage the authors to provide any supplementary material that supports the claims made in the paper, such as proof scripts or experimental data. This material must be uploaded at submission time, as an archive, not via a URL. Two forms of supplementary material may be submitted: (1) Anonymous supplementary material is made available to the reviewers before they submit their first-draft reviews. (2) Non-anonymous supplementary material is made available to the reviewers after they have submitted their first-draft reviews and have learned the identity of the authors. Please use anonymous supplementary material whenever possible, so that it can be taken into account from the beginning of the reviewing process. The submitted papers must adhere to the SIGPLAN Republication Policy (https://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/ ) and the ACM Policy on Plagiarism (https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism ). Concurrent submissions to other conferences, journals, workshops with proceedings, or similar forums of publication are not allowed. The PC chairs should be informed of closely related work submitted to a conference or journal in advance of submission. One author of each accepted paper is expected to present it at the (possibly virtual) conference. PUBLICATION, COPYRIGHT AND OPEN ACCESS The CPP 2024 proceedings will be published by the ACM, and authors of accepted papers will be required to choose one of the following publication options: (1) Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM a non-exclusive permission-to-publish license and, optionally, licenses the work under a Creative Commons license. (2) Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM an exclusive permission-to-publish license. (3) Author transfers copyright of the work to ACM. For authors who can afford it, we recommend option (1), which will make the paper Gold Open Access, and also encourage such authors to license their work under the CC-BY license. ACM will charge you an article processing fee for this option (currently, US$700), which you have to pay directly with the ACM. You don?t need to pay this fee if the corresponding author?s affiliating institution is part of ACM OPEN (https://libraries.acm.org/subscriptions-access/open-participants ). For everyone else, we recommend option (2), which is free and allows you to achieve Green Open Access, by uploading a preprint of your paper to a repository that guarantees permanent archival such as arXiv or HAL. This is anyway a good idea for timely dissemination even if you chose option 1. The official CPP 2024 proceedings will also be available via SIGPLAN OpenTOC (http://www.sigplan.org/OpenTOC/#cpp ). For ACM?s take on this, see their Copyright Policy (http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/copyright-policy ) and Author Rights (http://authors.acm.org/main.html ).

Formally" and falls within the area of Foundational Aspects in Cybersecurity. This theme aims to lay out formal methods for the analysis of existing systems and the identification of weaknesses that could lead to cibersecurity attacks. In fact, modern societies rely on infrastructures that are more and more connected through digital networks. This creates complex cyber-physical ecosystems that are vulnerable to many different types of attacks. A source of weakness is that this integration possibly involves systems that were originally designed to operate in (closed) trustworthy settings. Therefore, their integration with other systems, nowadays hardly negotiable, could easily introduce security breaches if done naively. The successful candidate will develop formal approaches to harness existing systems with security guarantees. The project considers a case study involving a platform developed at Actyx (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://developer.actyx.com/__;!!IBzWLUs!V4P68gfxFcFadPoCHS2ApIJP0s1CTe_5ceblNI8JWQCb6RUrp-jisByMB_2e68zON2msFl5G0gJPnnWE4jY2oPCxUx0AWYb3ulgvQw$ ) to support the coordination of factory production. ************************************************************ Emilio Tuosto Gran Sasso Science Institute Department of Computer Science ORCID: 0000-0002-7032-3281 Viale F.

Established in 1984, the mission of the conference is to support the design, theory, application, and evaluation of computing technologies and languages for programming, modeling, and communicating, which are easier to learn, use, and understand by people. The 2023 symposium is scheduled to take place October 2-6 in Washington, DC, USA. VL/HCC 2023 is 100% Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing (TCMC). ???? We invite you to consider submitting work to our graduate consortium track, deadline now extended to July 14 anywhere on Earth: Graduate Consortium **extended** Submission deadline: July 14, 2023 AoE The primary goal of this year?s event is to stimulate graduate students? and other researchers? thinking about ?Low-Code / No-Code Development?. This development paradigm enables the creation and deployment of fully functional applications using visual abstractions and interfaces and requiring little or no procedural code to empower users in creating software applications for constrained domains, even if they lack a programming background. This goal aligns with the theme of the 2023 VL/HCC main conference. Other areas within the remit of VL/HCC are also welcome. Why You Should Participate - Present your work to a smaller, more attentive audience - Get detailed, critical, constructive feedback from a diverse panel of experts - Meet other students working on similar problems - Travel funding may be available to help cover your cost of attending VL/HCC (details below). Who Can Participate? The consortium is open to both Master?s and PhD students worldwide. Participation is particularly encouraged from PhD students who are close to proposing a thesis, as well as from members of groups identified by NSF as underrepresented in the sciences and engineering. If multiple applicants from a particular university apply for the consortium this year, then no more than two per university will be selected to participate. To be eligible, each applicant may have participated no more than once in the VL/HCC graduate consortia of past years.

(All deadlines are Anywhere on Earth) ## Aim and Scope Stable object identity and shared mutable state are two powerful principles in programming. The ability to create multiple aliases to mutable data allows a direct modelling of sharing that occurs naturally in a domain, and lies at the heart of efficient programming patterns where aliases provide shortcuts to key places in a data structure. However, aliasing is also the cause of low-level bugs which are notoriously hard to debug, where a change through one alias may cause unforeseen changes visible through another alias. These problems are exacerbated in a concurrent setting, where aliasing is at the root of data races with multiple threads mutating shared memory simultaneously. Coping with pointers, aliasing and the proliferation of shared mutable state is a problem that crosscuts the software development stack, from compilers and runtimes to bug-finding tools and end-user software. They complicate modular reasoning and program analysis, efficient code generation, efficient use of memory, and obfuscate program logic. Several techniques have been introduced to describe and reason about stateful programs, and to restrict, analyze, and prevent aliases. These include various forms of ownership types, capabilities, separation logic, linear logic, uniqueness, sharing control, escape analysis, argument independence, read-only references, linear references, effect systems, and access control mechanisms. These tools have found their way into type systems, compilers and interpreters, runtime systems and bug-finding tools. IWACO?23 will focus on these techniques, on how they can be used to reason about stateful (sequential or concurrent) programs, and how they have been applied to programming languages. In particular, we will consider papers on: - models, type systems and other formal systems, programming language mechanisms, analysis and design techniques, patterns and notations for expressing ownership, aliasing, capabilities, uniqueness, and related topics; - empirical studies of programs or experience reports from programming systems designed with these techniques in mind; - programming logics that deal with aliasing and/or shared state, or use ownership, capabilities or resourcing; - applications of capabilities, ownership and other similar type systems in low-level systems such as programming languages runtimes, virtual machines, or compilers; and - optimization techniques, analysis algorithms, libraries, applications, and novel approaches exploiting ownership, aliasing, capabilities, uniqueness, and related topics. ## Submissions Contributions may be up to 6 pages long (excluding references and appendix). We also encourage short papers (~2 pages) or extended abstracts (~1 page) describing new ideas and open questions for discussion. All authors should use the official ?ACM Master article template?, which can be obtained from the ACM Proceedings Template pages (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template__;!!IBzWLUs!UFccc4ZTE2M2exEBm3QLxq5vO37vWcS1n4UXt3J9fVCHR8WGC296qvCv4n6pRuobQEHGkWDXzOwxN3vxxHSZEJ4VpexMebr3xm-IyXepBg$ ).

Virtual Machines and the languages they implement are crucial in the specification, implementation and/or user-facing deployment of most programming technologies. The VMIL workshop is a forum for researchers and cutting-edge practitioners in language virtual machines, the intermediate languages they use, and related issues. The workshop is intended to be welcoming to a wide range of topics and perspectives, covering all areas relevant to the workshop?s theme. Aspects of interest include, but are not limited to: - design issues in VMs and IRs (e.g. IR design, VM modularity, polyglotism); - compilation (static and dynamic compilation strategies, optimizations, data representations); - memory management; - security considerations; - concurrency (both internal and user-facing); - performance engineering; - tool support and related infrastructure (profiling, debugging, liveness, persistence); - the experience of VM development (use of high-level languages, bootstrapping and self-hosting, reusability, portability, developer tooling, etc.); - empirical studies on related topics, such as usage patterns, the usability of languages or tools, experimental methodology, or benchmark design; - the use of VMs in teaching programming, programming languages, and programming language implementation. ---------------------------------- Submission Guidelines ---------------------------------- We invite high-quality papers in the following two categories: - Research and experience papers: These submissions should describe work that advances the current state of the art in the above or related areas. The suggested length of these submissions is 6?10 pages (maximum 10 pages, excluding references). - Work-in-progress or position papers: These papers should document ongoing efforts in an area of interest which have not yet yielded final results, and/or should present and defend the authors? position on a topic related to the broad area of the workshop. The maximum length of these submissions is 6 pages, but we will consider shorter submissions (e.g. a well-written 2-page abstract). Submissions will be judged on novelty, clarity, timeliness, relevance, and potential to stimulate discussion during the workshop. The workshop has two submission deadlines. For the first submission deadline, all paper types are considered for publication in the ACM Digital Library, except if the authors prefer not to be included.

In particular, newer standards, such as DO-178C (avionics), ISO 26262 (automotive systems), IEC 62304 (medical devices), and CENELEC EN 50128 (railway systems), emphasize the need for formal methods and model-based development, thereby speeding up the adaptation of such methods in industry. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers who are interested in the application of formal and semi-formal methods to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems. FTSCS strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in industrial applications of formal methods. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: * case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods for analyzing safety-critical systems, including avionics, automotive, medical, railway, and other kinds of safety-critical and QoS-critical systems * methods, techniques and tools to support automated analysis, certification, debugging, etc., of safety/QoS-critical systems * analysis methods that address the limitations of formal methods in industry (usability, scalability, etc.) * formal analysis support for modeling languages used in industry, such as AADL, Ptolemy, SysML, SCADE, Modelica, etc. * code generation from validated models. The workshop will provide a platform for discussions and the exchange of innovative ideas, so submissions on work in progress are encouraged. Submission: We solicit submissions reporting on: A- original research contributions (10 pages max, ACM format); B- applications and experiences (10 pages max, ACM format); C- surveys, comparisons, and state-of-the-art reports (10 pages max, ACM); D- tool papers (5 pages max, ACM format); E- position papers and work in progress (5 pages max, ACM format) related to the topics mentioned above. (The page limits do not include the references.) KTH currently does not allow collaboration with Russia or Belarus. We therefore cannot accept papers with affiliation in Russia or Belarus.

SPLASH 2023 aims to signify the reopening of the world and being able to meet your international colleagues in person. **** SPLASH-E **** SPLASH-E is a symposium, started in 2013, for software and languages (SE/PL) researchers with activities and interests around computing education. Some build pedagogically-oriented languages or tools; some think about pedagogic challenges around SE/PL courses; some bring computing to non-CS communities; some pursue human studies and educational research. At SPLASH-E, we share our educational ideas and challenges centered in software/languages, as well as our best ideas for advancing such work. SPLASH-E strives to bring together researchers and those with educational interests that arise from software ideas or concerns. Archival Submission Deadline: 27 Jul 2023 ** Student Research Competition (SRC) ** The ACM Student Research Competition (SRC) offers a unique opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to present their research to a panel of judges and conference attendees at SPLASH. The SRC provides visibility and exposes up-and-coming researchers to computer science research and the research community. This competition also gives students an opportunity to discuss their research with experts in their field, get feedback, and sharpen their communication and networking skills. Abstract Submission Deadline: 21 Jul 2023 ** Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop (PLMW) ** The SPLASH Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop encourages graduate students (PhD and MSc) and senior undergraduate students to pursue research in programming languages. This workshop will provide mentoring sessions on how to prepare for and thrive in graduate school and in a research career, focusing both on cutting-edge research topics and practical advice. The workshop brings together leading researchers and junior students in an inclusive environment in order to help welcome newcomers to our field of programming languages research. The workshop will show students the many paths that they might take to enter and contribute to our research community. Application Submission Deadline: 24 Jul 2023 ** Workshops ** **** CONFLANG **** CONFLANG is a workshop on the design, the theory, the practice and the future evolution of configuration languages. It aims to gather the emerging community in this area in order to engage in fruitful interactions, to share ideas, results, opinions, and experiences on languages for configuration. Correct configuration is an actual industrial problem, and would greatly benefit from existing and ongoing academic research. Dually, this is a space with new challenges to overcome and new directions to explore, which is a great opportunity to confront new ideas with large-scale production. **** FTSCS **** The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers who are interested in the application of formal and semi-formal methods to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems. FTSCS strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in industrial applications of formal methods. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods for analyzing safety-critical systems, including avionics, automotive, medical, railway, and other kinds of safety-critical and QoS-critical systems; methods, techniques and tools to support automated analysis, certification, debugging, etc., of safety/QoS-critical systems; analysis methods that address the limitations of formal methods in industry (usability, scalability, etc.); formal analysis support for modeling languages used in industry, such as AADL, Ptolemy, SysML, SCADE, Modelica, etc.; code generation from validated models. The workshop will provide a platform for discussions and the exchange of innovative ideas, so submissions on work in progress are encouraged. **** HATRA **** Programming language designers seek to provide strong tools to help developers reason about their programs. For example, the formal methods community seeks to enable developers to prove correctness properties of their code, and type system designers seek to exclude classes of undesirable behavior from programs. The security community creates tools to help developers achieve their security goals. In order to make these approaches as effective as possible for developers, recent work has integrated approaches from human-computer interaction research into programming language design. This workshop brings together programming languages, software engineering, security, and human-computer interaction researchers to investigate methods for making languages that provide stronger safety properties more effective for programmers and software engineers. We have two goals: (1) to provide a venue for discussion and feedback on early-stage approaches that might enable people to be more effective at achieving stronger safety properties in their programs; (2) to facilitate discussion about relevant topics of participant interest. **** IWACO **** Many techniques have been introduced to describe and reason about stateful programs, and to restrict, analyze, and prevent aliases. These include various forms of ownership types, capabilities, separation logic, linear logic, uniqueness, sharing control, escape analysis, argument independence, read-only references, linear references, effect systems, and access control mechanisms. These tools have found their way into type systems, compilers and interpreters, runtime systems and bug-finding tools. Their immediate practical relevance is self-evident from the popularity of Rust, a programming language built around reasoning about aliasing and ownership to enable static memory management and data race freedom, voted the "most beloved" language in the annual Stack Overflow Developer Survey seven times in a row. IWACO'23 will focus on these techniques, on how they can be used to reason about stateful (sequential or concurrent) programs, and how they have been applied to programming languages. In particular, we will consider papers on: models, type systems and other formal systems, programming language mechanisms, analysis and design techniques, patterns and notations for expressing ownership, aliasing, capabilities, uniqueness, and related topics; empirical studies of programs or experience reports from programming systems designed with these techniques in mind; programming logics that deal with aliasing and/or shared state, or use ownership, capabilities or resourcing; applications of capabilities, ownership and other similar type systems in low-level systems such as programming languages runtimes, virtual machines, or compilers; and optimization techniques, analysis algorithms, libraries, applications, and novel approaches exploiting ownership, aliasing, capabilities, uniqueness, and related topics. **** LIVE **** Programming is cognitively demanding, and too difficult. LIVE is a workshop exploring new user interfaces that improve the immediacy, usability, and learnability of programming. Whereas PL research traditionally focuses on programs, LIVE focuses more on the activity of programming. Our goal is to provide a supportive venue where early-stage work receives constructive criticism. Whether graduate students or tenured faculty, researchers need a forum to discuss new ideas and get helpful feedback from their peers. Towards that end, we will allot about ten minutes for discussion after every presentation. **** PAINT **** Programming environments that integrate tools, notations, and abstractions into a holistic user experience can provide programmers with better support for what they want to achieve. These programming environments can create an engaging place to do new forms of informational work - resulting in enjoyable, creative, and productive experiences with programming. In the workshop on Programming Abstractions and Interactive Notations, Tools, and Environments (PAINT), we want to discuss programming environments that support users in working with and creating notations and abstractions that matter to them. We are interested in the relationship between people centric notations and general-purpose programming languages and environments. How do we reflect the various experiences, needs, and priorities of the many people involved in programming ? whether they call it that or not? **** PLF **** Applications supporting multi-device are ubiquitous. While most of the distributed applications that we see nowadays are cloud-based, avoiding the cloud can lead to privacy and performance benefits for users and operational and cost benefits for companies and developers. Following this idea, Local-First Software runs and stores its data locally while still allowing collaboration, thus retaining the benefits of existing collaborative applications without depending on the cloud. Many specific solutions already exist: operational transformation, client-side databases with eventually consistent replication based on CRDTs, and even synchronization as a service provided by commercial offerings, and a vast selection of UI design libraries. However, these solutions are not integrated with the programming languages that applications are developed in. Language based solutions related to distribution such as type systems describing protocols, reliable actor runtimes, data processing, machine learning, etc., are designed and optimized for the cloud not for a loosely connected set of cooperating devices. This workshop aims at bringing the issue to the attention of the PL community, and accelerating the development of suitable solutions for this area. **** REBELS **** Reactive programming and event-based programming are two closely related programming styles that are becoming ever more important with the advent of advanced HPC technology and the ever increasing requirement for our applications to run on the web or on collaborating mobile devices. A number of publications on middleware and language design ? so-called reactive and event-based languages and systems (REBLS) ? have already seen the light, but the field still raises several questions. For example, the interaction with mainstream language concepts is poorly understood, implementation technology is in its infancy and modularity mechanisms are almost totally lacking. Moreover, large applications are still to be developed and patterns and tools for developing reactive applications is an area that is vastly unexplored. This workshop will gather researchers in reactive and event-based languages and systems. The goal of the workshop is to exchange new technical research results and to define better the field by coming up with taxonomies and overviews of the existing work. **** ST30 **** Session types are a type-theoretic approach to specifying communication protocols so that they can be verified by type-checking. This year marks 30 years since the first paper on session types, by Kohei Honda at CONCUR 1993. Since then the topic has attracted increasing interest, and a substantial community and literature have developed. Google Scholar lists almost 400 articles with "session types" in the title, and most programming language conferences now include several papers on session types each year. In terms of the technical focus, there have been continuing theoretical developments (notably the generalisation from two-party to multi-party session types by Honda, Yoshida and Carbone in 2008, and the development of a Curry-Howard correspondence with linear logic by Caires and Pfenning in 2010) and a variety of implementations of session types as programming language extensions or libraries, covering (among others) Haskell, OCaml, Java, Scala, Rust, Python, C#, Go. ST30 is a workshop to celebrate the 30th anniversary of session types by bringing together the community for a day of talks and technical discussion. **** VMIL **** The concept of Virtual Machines is pervasive in the design and implementation of programming systems. Virtual Machines and the languages they implement are crucial in the specification, implementation and/or user-facing deployment of most programming technologies. The VMIL workshop is a forum for researchers and cutting-edge practitioners in language virtual machines, the intermediate languages they use, and related issues. The workshop is intended to be welcoming to a wide range of topics and perspectives, covering all areas relevant to the workshop?s theme. ====================================================================== Be part of these fantastic events! ====================================================================== Organizing Committee General Chair: Vasco T.

Notification of intent : 20 October 2023 Submission deadline : 1 December 2023 SCOPE The idea of program calculation, in which programs are derived from specifications using equational reasoning techniques, has been a topic of interest in functional programming since its earliest days. In particular, the approach allows us to systematically discover how programs can be defined, while at the same time obtaining proofs that they are correct. The aim of this special issue is to document advances that have been made in the field of program calculation in recent years. TOPICS Full-length, archival-quality submissions are solicited on all aspects of program calculation and related topics. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Program derivation and transformation; - Inductive and co-inductive methods; - Recursion and co-recursion schemes; - Categorical and graphical methods; - Tool support and proof assistants; - Efficiency and resource usage; - Functional algorithm design; - Calculation case studies. The special issue will also consider papers on program calculation that are not traditional research papers. This may include pearls, surveys, tutorials or educational papers, which will be judged by the usual JFP standards for such submissions. Papers will be reviewed as regular JFP submissions, and acceptance in the special issue will be based on both JFP's quality standards and relevance to the theme. NOTIFICATION OF INTENT Authors must notify the special issue editors of their intent to submit by 20 October 2023. The notification of intent should be submitted by filling out the following form, which asks for data to help identify suitable reviewers: tinyurl.com/intent-to-submit If you miss the notification of intent deadline, but still wish to submit, please contact the special-issue editors.

Wednesday 10 - Friday 12 January, 2024 Submission deadline: post-symposium review,?????? Friday 23 February, 2024 Notification:??????? post-symposium submissions,? Friday 5 April, 2024 The Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP) is an international forum for researchers with interests in all aspects of functional programming, taking a broad view of current and future trends in the area. It aspires to be a lively environment for presenting the latest research results, and other contributions. This year, TFP will take place in-person at Seton Hall University, in South Orange, NJ in the United States. It is co-located with the Trends in Functional Programming in Education (TFPIE) workshop, which will take on the day before the main symposium. Please be aware that TFP has several submission deadlines. The first, November 4, is for authors that wish to have their full paper reviewed prior to the symposium. Papers that are accepted in this way must also be presented at the symposium. The second, November 30, is for authors that wish to present their work or work-in progress at the symposium first without submitting to the full review process for publication. These authors can then take into account feedback received at the symposium and submit a full article for review by the third deadline, February 23. ## Scope The symposium recognizes that new trends may arise through various routes. As part of the Symposium's focus on trends we therefore identify the following five article categories. High-quality articles are solicited in any of these categories: * Research Articles: ? Leading-edge, previously unpublished research work * Position Articles: ? On what new trends should or should not be * Project Articles: ? Descriptions of recently started new projects * Evaluation Articles: ? What lessons can be drawn from a finished project * Overview Articles: ? Summarizing work with respect to a trendy subject Articles must be original and not simultaneously submitted for publication to any other forum. They may consider any aspect of functional programming: theoretical, implementation-oriented, or experience-oriented. Applications of functional programming techniques to other languages are also within the scope of the symposium. Topics suitable for the symposium include, but are not limited to: * Functional programming and multicore/manycore computing * Functional programming in the cloud * High performance functional computing * Extra-functional (behavioural) properties of functional programs * Dependently typed functional programming * Validation and verification of functional programs * Debugging and profiling for functional languages * Functional programming in different application areas: ? security, mobility, telecommunications applications, embedded ? systems, global computing, grids, etc. * Interoperability with imperative programming languages * Novel memory management techniques * Program analysis and transformation techniques * Empirical performance studies * Abstract/virtual machines and compilers for functional languages * (Embedded) domain specific languages * New implementation strategies * Any new emerging trend in the functional programming area If you are in doubt on whether your article is within the scope of TFP, please contact the TFP 2024 program chair, Jason Hemann. ## Best Paper Awards TFP awards two prizes for the best papers each year. First, to reward excellent contributions, TFP awards a prize for the best overall paper accepted for the post-conference formal proceedings. Second, each year TFP also awards a prize for the best student paper. TFP traditionally pays special attention to research students, acknowledging that students are almost by definition part of new subject trends. A student paper is one for which the authors state that the paper is mainly the work of students, the students are the paper?s first authors, and a student would present the paper. In both cases, it is the PC of TFP that awards the prize. In case the best paper happens to be a student paper, then that paper will receive both prizes. ## Instructions to Authors Authors must submit papers to: ? Authors of papers have the choice of having their contributions formally reviewed either before or after the Symposium. Further, pre-symposium submissions may either be full (earlier deadline) or draft papers (later deadline). ## Pre-symposium formal review Papers to be formally reviewed before the symposium should be submitted before the early deadline and will receive their reviews and notification of acceptance for both presentation and publication before the symposium. A paper that has been rejected for publication but accepted for presentation may be resubmitted for the post-symposium formal review. ## Post-symposium formal review Draft papers will receive minimal reviews and notification of acceptance for presentation at the symposium. Authors of draft papers will be invited to submit revised papers based on the feedback receive at the symposium. A post-symposium refereeing process will then select a subset of these articles for formal publication. ## Paper categories Draft papers and papers submitted for formal review are submitted as extended abstracts (4 to 10 pages in length) or full papers (20 pages). The submission must clearly indicate which category it belongs to: research, position, project, evaluation, or overview paper. It should also indicate which authors are research students, and whether the main author(s) are students. A draft paper for which all authors are students will receive additional feedback by one of the PC members shortly after the symposium has taken place. ## Format Papers must be written in English, and written using the LNCS style.

Virtual Machines and the languages they implement are crucial in the specification, implementation and/or user-facing deployment of most programming technologies. The VMIL workshop is a forum for researchers and cutting-edge practitioners in language virtual machines, the intermediate languages they use, and related issues. The workshop is intended to be welcoming to a wide range of topics and perspectives, covering all areas relevant to the workshop?s theme. Aspects of interest include, but are not limited to: - design issues in VMs and IRs (e.g. IR design, VM modularity, polyglotism); - compilation (static and dynamic compilation strategies, optimizations, data representations); - memory management; - security considerations; - concurrency (both internal and user-facing); - performance engineering; - tool support and related infrastructure (profiling, debugging, liveness, persistence); - the experience of VM development (use of high-level languages, bootstrapping and self-hosting, reusability, portability, developer tooling, etc.); - empirical studies on related topics, such as usage patterns, the usability of languages or tools, experimental methodology, or benchmark design; - the use of VMs in teaching programming, programming languages, and programming language implementation. ---------------------------------- Submission Guidelines ---------------------------------- We invite high-quality papers in the following two categories: - Research and experience papers: These submissions should describe work that advances the current state of the art in the above or related areas. The suggested length of these submissions is 6?10 pages (maximum 10 pages, excluding references). - Work-in-progress or position papers: These papers should document ongoing efforts in an area of interest which have not yet yielded final results, and/or should present and defend the authors? position on a topic related to the broad area of the workshop. The maximum length of these submissions is 6 pages, but we will consider shorter submissions (e.g. a well-written 2-page abstract). Submissions will be judged on novelty, clarity, timeliness, relevance, and potential to stimulate discussion during the workshop. The workshop has two submission deadlines. For the first submission deadline, all paper types are considered for publication in the ACM Digital Library, except if the authors prefer not to be included. Publication of work-in-progress and position papers at VMIL is not intended to preclude later publication elsewhere. For the second deadline, we will consider only work-in-progress and position papers. These will not be published in the ACM DL, and will only appear on the website.

The Verified Software Initiative (VSI), spearheaded by Tony Hoare and Jayadev Misra, is an ambitious research program for making large-scale verified software a practical reality. The International Conference on Verified Software: Theories, Tools and Experiments (VSTTE) is the main forum for advancing the initiative. VSTTE brings together experts spanning the spectrum of software verification in order to foster international collaboration on the critical research challenges. The theoretical work includes semantic foundations and logics for specification and verification, and verification algorithms and methodologies. The tools cover specification and annotation languages, program analyzers, model checkers, interactive verifiers and proof checkers, automated theorem provers and SAT/SMT solvers, and integrated verification environments. The experimental work drives the research agenda for theory and tools by taking on significant specification/verification exercises covering hardware, operating systems, compilers, computer security, parallel computing, and cyber-physical systems. The 2023 edition of VSTTE will be the 15th international conference in the series, and will be co-located with FMCAD 2023 in Ames, Iowa, USA. For details, see the VSTTE conference webpage at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://homepage.cs.uiowa.edu/*ajreynol/VSTTE2023/__;fg!!IBzWLUs!Xw3MtpXfdFrCFaHG6kQciLdb1UIUZKiAlOqitK8-u3htjYtq4qSj9D3nw8WWnds3U5jqytRTFeQnAoeUU1bOV7fn1rCIowgPfj1sIrnv$ . === Paper Submissions We welcome submissions describing significant advances in the production of verified software, i.e., software that has been proved to meet its functional specifications. Submissions of theoretical, practical, and experimental contributions are equally encouraged, including those that focus on specific problems or problem domains. We are especially interested in submissions describing large-scale verification efforts that involve collaboration, theory unification, tool integration, and formalized domain knowledge. We also welcome papers describing novel experiments and case studies evaluating verification techniques and technologies. Topics of interest for this conference include, but are not limited to, requirements modeling, specification languages, specification/verification/certification case studies, formal calculi, software design methods, automatic code generation, refinement methodologies, compositional analysis, verification tools (e.g., static analysis, dynamic analysis, model checking, theorem proving, satisfiability), tool integration, benchmarks, challenge problems, and integrated verification environments. VSTTE 2023 will accept both long (limited to 16 pages, excluding references) and short (limited to 10 pages, excluding references) paper submissions. Short submissions also cover Verification Pearls describing an elegant proof or proof technique. Submitted research papers and system descriptions must be original and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Submissions of theoretical, practical, and experimental contributions are equally encouraged, including those that focus on specific problems or problem domains. Papers will be submitted via EasyChair at the VSTTE 2023 conference page ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vstte2023__;!!IBzWLUs!Xw3MtpXfdFrCFaHG6kQciLdb1UIUZKiAlOqitK8-u3htjYtq4qSj9D3nw8WWnds3U5jqytRTFeQnAoeUU1bOV7fn1rCIowgPfrGYjRJB$ ). Submissions that arrive late, are not in the proper format, or are too long will not be considered. The post-conference proceedings of VSTTE 2023 will be published as a LNCS volume by Springer-Verlag. Authors of accepted papers will be requested to sign a form transferring copyright of their contribution to Springer-Verlag. The use of LaTeX and the Springer LNCS class files is strongly encouraged. === General Chair Supratik Chakraborty (IIT Bombay, India) === Program Chairs Serdar Tasiran (Amazon Web Services, USA) Andrew Reynolds (University of Iowa, USA) === Program Committee Ahmed Irfan (SRI International) Pierre-Loic Garoche (ENAC) Gennaro Parlato (University of Molise, Italy) Hiroshi Unno (University of Tsukuba) Yuepeng Wang (Simon Fraser University) Burcu Kulahcioglu Ozkan (Delft University of Technology) Christel Baier (TU Dresden) Constantin Enea (Ecole Polytechnique) Sergio Mover (Ecole Polytechnique) Haniel Barbosa (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais) Supratik Chakraborty (IIT Bombay) Stefano Tonetta (FBK-irst) Kirsten Winter (The University of Queensland) Akash Lal (Microsoft) Roderick Bloem (Inst. for Applied Information Processing and Communications, TU Graz) Carlos Olarte (LIPN, Universit?

Research theme: Smart contracts are computer programs running on a blockchain platform. They are usually employed to handle digital assets (cryptocurrencies, tokens,...), and hence smart contracts bugs can (and have) lead to severe economical losses. The aim of this PhD project is to develop new techniques for the design and implementation of safe smart contracts and decentralised applications. We plan to develop a formal model able to specify smart contracts behaviour at a high level of abstraction. Such specifications can then be analysed for correctness with standard techniques (model checking, static analysis,...). Compliance of the model with the actual smart contract code can be verified through type-checking or enforced through code-generation. Perspective applicants can contact Maurizio Murgia (maurizio.murgia at gssi.it) or Emilio Tuosto (emilio.tuosto at gssi.it). Doctoral school: The PhD School on Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technology is a new PhD program jointly managed by several research institutions and with administrative headquarters at the University of Camerino.

Last year, 64% of the accepted papers submitted artifacts, leading to 2-3 artifacts assigned to each reviewer. We are proud to announce an open call for nominations of senior graduate students, postdocs, or research community members to serve on the POPL 2024 AEC. We encourage self-nominations from anyone interested in participating in the artifact evaluation process. Participation in the AEC can provide useful insight into the value of artifacts and the process of artifact evaluation, and also helps to establish community norms for artifacts. We particularly encourage graduate students to serve on the AEC. Qualified graduate students are often in a much better position than many researchers to handle the diversity of systems expectations we will encounter. In addition, these graduate students represent the future of the community, so involving them in this process early will help push this process forward. The work of the AEC will be done between October 9 and November 3, so we are looking for people who are available during that time. Please fill out this nomination form for each nominee by August 4, 2024: forms.gle/5xiszpLGcHJkHbPV9 Please note that in the past we have had more nominees than slots on the AEC, and so not all nominees will be able to join the AEC. We look forward to your nominations! Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you for your help!

Ciao, -Alessio FIRST CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS ? please disseminate widely to your colleagues and networks (apologies for cross-posting) 1st conference on *Undone Science in Computer Science* ? A conference to reflect on epistemological and ethical dimensions of computer science * *Nantes, France, 5-6 February 2024* (hybrid) * Calling for talk proposals (1-2 pages abstracts) * Post-proceedings model: we will send a call for full papers after the conference * Conference website: PRESENTATION As researchers in computer science, we are committed to advancing the field in a way that is both epistemologically and ethically sound. The *Undone Computer Science conference* provides an informal venue to pause and reflect on these aspects. Our goal is to bring together computer scientists from across the field, but also philosophers of science, social scientists, etc., interested in discussing the ethical and epistemological dimensions of our work. We welcome abstracts exploring these dimensions, and encourage submissions from a wide range of perspectives. *Abstracts should be 1-2 pages*, clearly outlining the main arguments and contributions of the proposed talk. As a guiding question, we propose to apply the concept of Undone Science [1] to computer science. *Undone science* refers to questions that are left unaddressed, ignored, or underfunded for various reasons, yet demonstrably worthy of exploration. It highlights the idea that the production and dissemination of knowledge are variously influenced, leading to biases in the choice of research that is done, and eventually in a ?systematic non-production of knowledge? [2]. Critical voices have recently highlighted corporate influences in AI ethics [3], reminding us of some of the society-impacting case studies which originally motivated the analytical concept of undone science. But undone science could also refer to the consequences of ?theoretical commitments? [2], e.g. dominant paradigms, when they blind us collectively about what is worthy or not of exploration?while accounts of paradigm shifts in our young domain remain rare. Undone science has also been referring to questions first recognised by actors from civil society?for computer scientists, the free software movement and civil liberties organisations come to mind. We believe that *the concept of undone science can further help bring out* the epistemological and ethical aspects of research in computer science. Undone Computer Science is an informal conference with post-proceedings: depending upon the eventual number and quality of submissions, we intend to follow up the conference with a call for full papers to be published in a journal. (It is not necessary to submit a full paper to present at the conference; nor is it necessary to present at the conference to answer the call for full papers.) POTENTIAL TOPICS It is unnecessary to be familiar with the concept of undone science in order to contribute. *Potential topics include*, but are not limited to: * Areas of research meeting challenges that will require or have required *shifts in viewpoint*; conditions responsible for *certain kinds of research being over- or under-represented*; reasons for a set of *questions being neglected* in an area. * Epistemological questions and challenges arising from the *interdisciplinary nature* of computer science, or dealing with the articulations between theory and practice. * How *social movements or civil society organisations* (e.g. free software movement and probably others) play a role in identifying areas of research being left aside, in providing new research questions, or on the contrary in demanding that some kind of research remains undone. * Challenges of integrating ethical questioning regarding *social, economic, and environmental consequences* of our work into the process of making good science. Concrete examples of questions stemming from ethical consideration being introduced to a domain (why/how), are welcome. * How *ethics codes* (for instance the ACM Code of Ethics) can be leveraged (or fail) to present some questions as being worthy of exploration. How can (or cannot) guiding principles be put in place to enrich the research practices in an area, or to help professionals of computing in industry and academia? * Explorations of the *influence of publishing practices* within our community, and of popular research methodology and scientific writing guides provided within our fields, on the selection, execution, and dissemination of research. * Examinations of biases and limitations present in commonly-used *educational curricula* (for instance leading to or stemming from a lack of diversity, be it social or methodological); * More generally, any discussion of systematic non-production and non-dissemination of knowledge, whether in a specific area or in computer science in general; whether due to *limitations of available methodologies, blind spots of dominant paradigms, institutional and industrial biases, lack of social representation*, or other factors. We look forward to receiving your abstracts, and to an engaging and thought-provoking conference. Sincerely, The Organisers KEY DATES * *Submission deadline*: 10th October 2023 (anywhere on Earth) * *Author notification*: 27th November 2023 * *Conference*: 5th-6th February 2024 in Nantes SUBMITTING * Instructions: 1. Abstracts should be 1-2 pages in length (excluding bibliography) and should succinctly present the key arguments and contributions of the proposed talk. The submission can contain appendices or a link to a longer version, but the point of the submission should be clear from the first two pages (reviewers are not obligated to read any further). 2. Submissions should be uploaded to EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/account/signin__;!!IBzWLUs!QFsiN2shszwTOAfSiLdo4ubitrIfzKy3H0bH74n3GlyoFA8ewf5KTtXKC979RO81CCHS4BTRkfN5E90CD_DWrWCMGoK7mBa4tZokAgR0$ in PDF format. 3. The conference being aimed at a wide range of research domains, authors are welcome to include a brief biography (up to 5 lines). The review process is single-blind (reviewers are anonymous, but authors are not). 4. For a paper accepted at the conference, at least one author is generally expected to present in person, but we will work to make remote presentations possible. (Feel free to inquire in advance with the organisers.) * Acceptance criteria: 1. *Computer Science*: we seek contributions pertaining to computer science (in a broad sense), 2. *Author expertise*: we expect authors to contribute in accordance with their domains of expertise, in a broad sense; for instance a contribution on ethical issues by a computer scientist can be rooted in their research practice, a contribution by a social scientist can be rooted in the study of an example or through field work. (This includes submissions by graduate students.) 3. *Undone science*: we expect that the question of undone science will inspire presentations that lead to meaningful reflections on ethical or epistemological aspects of computer science. For instance, a submission could outline a potential ethical question derived from a detailed examination of real-world practices without delving into the ethical aspects in detail. (Feel free to inquire with the organisers about a potential topic.) 4. Unfinished or exploratory contributions, that would benefit from discussion at the conference prior to their development into full papers, are most welcome. 5. Members of the programme committee are allowed to submit talk proposals. * We will endeavour to always give considerate and constructive feedback about proposed abstracts. * Accepted abstracts will be made available online in the programme of the conference. REGISTRATION & ATTENDING * There are no fees for registration, but /registration is mandatory/ to attend. * The venue has good accessibility and we strive to make our conference accessible; more information will be provided on the website of the conference. Feel free to inquire with the organisers. * A very limited number of travel grants might be offered for speakers who require it. Feel free to inquire in advance with the organisers. * The talks will be streamed online. Visit the website for more information.

The scope includes all aspects of the design, semantics, theory, applications, implementations, and teaching of declarative programming. FLOPS specifically aims to promote cross-fertilization between theory and practice and among different styles of declarative programming. Previous FLOPS meetings were held at Fuji Susono (1995), Shonan Village (1996), Kyoto (1998), Tsukuba (1999), Tokyo (2001), Aizu (2002), Nara (2004), Fuji Susono (2006), Ise (2008), Sendai (2010), Kobe (2012), Kanazawa (2014), Kochi (2016), Nagoya (2018), Akita (2020, online), and Kyoto (2022, online). *** Scope *** FLOPS solicits original papers in all areas of declarative programming: * functional, logic, functional-logic programming, rewriting systems, formal methods and model checking, program transformations and program refinements, developing programs with the help of theorem provers or SAT/SMT solvers, verifying properties of programs using declarative programming techniques; * foundations, language design, implementation issues (compilation techniques, memory management, run-time systems, etc.), applications and case studies. FLOPS promotes cross-fertilization among different styles of declarative programming. Therefore, research papers must be written to be understandable by a wide audience of declarative programmers and researchers. In particular, each submission should explain its contributions in both general and technical terms, clearly identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant for its area, and comparing it with previous work. Submission of system descriptions and declarative pearls are especially encouraged. *** Submission *** Submissions should fall into one of the following categories: * Regular research papers: they should describe new results and will be judged on originality, correctness, and significance. * System descriptions: they should describe a working system and will be judged on originality, usefulness, and design. * Declarative pearls: new and excellent declarative programs or theories with illustrative applications. System descriptions and declarative pearls must be explicitly marked as such in the title. Submissions must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Work that already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshops proceedings may be submitted.

ETAPS, established in 1998, is a confederation of four annual conferences accompanied by satellite workshops. ETAPS 2024 is the twenty-seventh event in the series. -- Why choose ETAPS? -- * ETAPS is one of the world's leading fora for research on software science, with a history of more than 25 years. * The proceedings of ETAPS appear in gold open access, with no article processing charge for the authors specifically. * All constituent conferences provide artifact evaluation. * In addition to the conference, ETAPS also unites the software science community with activities such as a blog on software science, a PhD workshop, and sessions on diversity and inclusion. -- What is new in 2024? -- * New submission categories at ESOP - "Experience reports" and "Fresh perspectives" * Alignment of the artifact evaluation process of the different conferences. -- MAIN CONFERENCES (8-11 April 2024) -- * ESOP: European Symposium on Programming (PC chair: Stephanie Weirich, University of Pennsylvania, USA) * FASE: Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering (PC chairs: Dirk Beyer, LMU Munich, Germany, Ana Cavalcanti, University of York, UK) * FoSSaCS: Foundations of Software Science and Computation Structures (PC chairs: Naoki Kobayashi, The University of Tokyo, Japan James Worrell, University of Oxford, UK) * TACAS: Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems (PC chairs: Bernd Finkbeiner, CISPA, Germany, Laura Kovacs, TU Wien, Austria) -- INVITED SPEAKERS -- * Keynote speakers: Lars Birkedal, Aarhus University Sandrine Blazy, University of Rennes Jerome Leroux, Laboratoire Bordelais de Recherche en Informatique Ruzica Piskac, Yale University * Tutorial speakers: Tamar Sharon, Radboud University David Monniaux, Verimag -- IMPORTANT DATES -- * Paper submission: 12 October 2023, 23:59 AoE * TACAS artifact submission deadline: 9 November 2023 * Rebuttal (ESOP, FoSSaCS, partially TACAS): 5 December - 7 December 2023 * Paper notification: 21 December 2023 * ESOP, FASE, FoSSaCS artifact submission deadline: 4 January 2024 * Artifact notification TACAS: 18 January 2024 * Paper final version: 23 January 2024 * Artifact notification ESOP, FASE, FoSSaCS: 8 February 2024 * Main Conference: 8-11 April 2024 -- SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS -- The four main conferences of ETAPS 2024 solicit contributions of the following types. All page limits are given **excluding the bibliography**. * ESOP: regular research papers of max 25 pp, experience reports of max 15 pp, and fresh perspectives providing new insights on programming languages and systems of max 15 pp. * FASE: regular research papers and empirical evaluation papers of max 18 pp, new ideas and emerging results (NIER) papers of max 8 pp, tool demonstration papers of max 6 pp (+ mandatory appendix of max 6 pp), * FoSSaCS: regular research papers of max 18 pp * TACAS: regular research papers, case study papers, and regular tool papers of max 16 pp, tool demonstration papers of max 6 pp For definitions of the different paper types and specific instructions, where they are present, see the web pages of the individual conferences. All accepted papers will appear in Springer proceedings and have presentations during the conference. A condition of submission is that, if the submission is accepted, one of the authors attends the conference to give the presentation. We plan ETAPS 2024 as an on-site conference. Submitted papers must be in English, presenting original research. They must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. In particular, simultaneous submission of the same contribution to multiple ETAPS conferences is forbidden. Submissions must follow the formatting guidelines of Springer's LNCS (use the llncs.cls class) and be submitted electronically in pdf through the Easychair author interface of the respective conference. Submissions not adhering to the specified format and length may be rejected immediately. ESOP, FASE, and TACAS will use double-blind reviewing (in the case of TACAS, only for regular research papers). Authors are asked to omit their names and institutions; refer to prior work in the third person, just as prior work by others; not to include acknowledgments that might identify them. ESOP and FoSSaCS will use an **author rebuttal phase**. TACAS will use rebuttal for selected submissions (those in the grey zone). Artifact submission and evaluation Regular tool paper and tool demonstration paper submissions to TACAS must be accompanied by an artifact submitted shortly after the paper. The artifact will be evaluated, and the outcome will be considered in the paper's acceptance decision. For research paper and case study paper submissions, pre-paper-acceptance submission of an artifact is optional; if an artifact is submitted at this point, it will be handled as described above. Alternatively, authors of papers of these categories may submit an artifact for evaluation after the paper has been accepted. The outcome of the artifact evaluation will then not change the paper acceptance decision. ESOP, FASE, and FoSSaCS will accept artifact submissions; however, participation in it is voluntary; the artifact submission deadline is after the paper notification deadline. The outcome will not alter the paper acceptance decision. For ESOP, artifacts may be submitted with an accompanying short 5 page experience report (including 1-page bibliography) that will appear in the conference proceedings. For specific instructions regarding artifacts, see the web pages of the individual conferences. -- PUBLICATION -- The proceedings will be published in the Advanced Research in Computing and Software Science (ARCoSS) subline of Springer's LNCS series. The proceedings volumes will appear in gold open access, so the published versions of all papers will be available for everyone to download from the publisher's website freely from the date of online publication, perpetually. The copyright of the papers will remain with the authors. -- AWARDS -- The strongest papers from the four conferences will be nominated for the ETAPS best paper awards of EAPLS, EASST, and EATCS, and the SCP best tool paper award. The ETAPS Test-of-Time Award will be granted, recognizing outstanding papers published at ETAPS more than ten years in the past. The ETAPS Test-of-Time Tool Award acknowledges the importance of reliable and well-maintained research tools and the significant effort that their creation and maintenance entails. The Doctoral Dissertation Award will be granted to promote and recognize an outstanding dissertation in the research areas covered by the four main ETAPS conferences. All nominated papers will be highlighted in the program. -- SATELLITE EVENTS (6-7 April 2024) -- A number of satellite workshops and other events will take place during the weekend before the main conferences. -- CITY AND HOST INSTITUTION -- ETAPS 2024 will take place in Parc Alvisse Hotel 4*, Luxembourg City, Luxembourg. Located in a peaceful and green environment on the outskirts of Luxembourg City, just a 10-minutes drive from the city center and the airport, the Parc Hotel Alvisse opens its doors to you on a vast and refurbished complex for the greatest comfort of its customers. This luxury hotel also has an indoor swimming pool, a bar/lounge, and a fitness center. -- ORGANISERS -- Peter Y.A.

The page limit depends on the paper?s category (see below). In each category, additional material beyond the page limit may be placed in a clearly marked appendix to be read at the discretion of the reviewers and to be omitted in the final version. Formatting style files and further guidelines for formatting can be found at the Springer website: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!TtlouQqnbV6SYMMtFJPmkM-6Pph407Nlv88NKVqJvWLMovsb5rYQDDmgSTF4WyLuhw4zm461_x4xYIa8t74oTlU0AfCngY20wZCJ51d0$ . All accepted papers will be published in Springer?s Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Submissions will undergo a single-blind review process. There will be three categories of papers: regular papers, tool papers, and case studies. Papers in each category have a different page limit and will be evaluated differently. Regular papers clearly identify and justify an advance to the field of verification, abstract interpretation, or model checking. Where applicable, they are supported by experimental validation. Regular papers are restricted to 20 pages in LNCS format, not counting references. Tool papers present a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to an existing tool. They should provide a short description of the theoretical foundations with relevant citations and emphasize the design and implementation concerns, including software architecture and core data structures. A regular tool paper should give a clear account of the tool?s functionality, discuss the tool?s practical capabilities with reference to the type and size of problems it can handle, describe experience with realistic case studies, and, where applicable, provide a rigorous experimental evaluation. Papers that present extensions to existing tools should clearly focus on the improvements or extensions with respect to previously published versions of the tool, preferably substantiated by data on enhancements in terms of resources and capabilities. Authors are strongly encouraged to make their tools publicly available and submit an artifact. Tool papers are restricted to 12 pages in LNCS format, not counting references. Case studies are expected to describe the use of verification, model checking, and abstract interpretation techniques in new application domains or industrial settings. Papers in this category do not necessarily need to present original research results but are expected to contain novel applications of formal methods and techniques as well as an evaluation of these techniques in the chosen application domain. Such papers are encouraged to discuss the unique challenges of transferring research ideas to a real-world setting and reflect on any lessons learned from this technology transfer experience. Case study papers are restricted to 20 pages in LNCS format, not counting references. (Shorter case study papers are also welcome.) * Artifacts * VMCAI 2024 allows authors to submit an artifact along with a paper. Artifacts are any additional material that substantiates the claims made in the paper, and ideally makes them fully replicable. Artifacts of interest include (but are not limited to): - Software, Tools, or Frameworks - Data sets - Test suites - Machine checkable proofs - Any combination of them - Any other artifact described in the paper Artifact submission is optional. However, we highly encourage all authors to also submit an artifact. A successfully evaluated artifact can increase your chance of being accepted since the evaluation result of your artifact is taken into account during the paper review. The artifact will be evaluated in parallel with the submission by the artifact evaluation committee (AEC). The AEC will read the paper and evaluate the artifact on the following criteria: - consistency with and replicability of results in the paper, - completeness, - documentation, and - ease of use.

To enable formal verification for many different programming languages, we will develop a deductive verifier for an intermediate language, and then build deductive verifiers for many different source languages on top of this. With the omnipresence of software, our lives and income depend crucially on the quality of software: software failures can cause planes to crash, emergency service to be unreachable, and companies to lose millions of dollars (because of missed business opportunities, but also due to reputation damage). Therefore, software developers are urgently looking for techniques that can help them to improve the quality of their software. Formal verification techniques that allow one to prove that software will never reach an erroneous state can play an essential role in this. However, to use this in an industrial setting, we need to make sure that the verification technology can be used in combination with the newest programming language technology. Deductive program verification is a formal verification technique that works directly at the code level, and non-trivial case studies have shown its potential. However, for its widespread use, we need tool support for many different programming languages, which requires a large amount of engineering. Therefore, in this project, you will be working on a different approach. Rather than building a deductive program verifier for each programming language, you will develop deductive program verification technology for the widely-used intermediate representation language LLVM-IR. You can use deductive verification for any programming language that compiles into the LLVM-IR format. In addition, you will define a generic specification format to write the program specifications, which is then automatically compiled into a specified LLVM-IR program, and which can be verified. Finally, you will also develop techniques to give feedback on failed verification attempts at the level of the source program, rather than asking the developer to study the generated LLVM-IR code. Throughout the project, you will evaluate the verification technology on various industrial case studies, including applications that use multiple programming languages, that are all targeting the LLVM-IR format. You will work on this project in close collaboration with the members of the VerCors team, who are working on the VerCors program verifier (see utwente.nl/vercors/). * Your profile * - You are an enthusiastic and highly motivated researcher. - You have, or will shortly, acquire a master's degree in the field of Computer Science, or comparable. - You have a demonstrable interest in formal specification and verification and an affinity with tool development. - You have a creative mentality and excellent analytical and communication skills. - You have a good team spirit and like to work in an interdisciplinary and internationally oriented environment. - You are proficient in English. * Our offer * - As a PhD candidate at UT, you will be appointed to a full-time position for four years, with a qualifier in the first year, within a very stimulating and exciting scientific environment; - You will be a member of the Formal Methods and Tools research group, a strong research group on formal verification, with an open and welcoming atmosphere; - The University offers a dynamic ecosystem with enthusiastic colleagues; - Your salary and associated conditions are in accordance with the collective labour agreement for Dutch universities (CAO-NU); - You will receive a gross monthly salary ranging from ? 2.541,- (first year) to ? 3.247,- (fourth year); - There are excellent benefits including a holiday allowance of 8% of the gross annual salary, an end-of-year bonus of 8.3%, and a solid pension scheme; - The flexibility to work (partially) from home; - A minimum of 232 leave hours in case of full-time employment based on a formal workweek of 38 hours. Full-time employment in practice means 40 hours a week, therefore resulting in 96 extra leave hours on an annual basis. - Free access to sports facilities on campus - A family-friendly institution that offers parental leave (both paid and unpaid); - You will have a training programme as part of the Twente Graduate School where you and your supervisors will determine a plan for a suitable education and supervision; - We encourage a high degree of responsibility and independence while collaborating with close colleagues, researchers and other staff. * Information and application * Are you interested in this position?

It includes Open Content, under a form of non-restrictive license, and Open Knowledge, that is, the freedom to use, reuse, and redistribute knowledge without legal, social or technological restrictions. The International Workshops on Open Community approaches to Education, Research and Technology expand the scope of the International Workshop on Foundations and Techniques for Open Source Software Certification, whose 8 editions run from 2007 to 2014. The workshop promotes the use of Open Community approaches in Education and Research, with the aim to achieve wide diffusion and proper assessment of new, innovative Technology. The workshop general focus is on 1. EDUCATION, where aspects of interest are all those related to open and collaborative learning, in both formal and informal education contexts. 2. RESEARCH, with the aims at * establishing open research projects as "cauldrons" of open data, open knowledge and collaborative development, as well as devising methodologies and tools for the management and assessment of such projects; * defining open peer-review methodologies for the assessment of research outputs and appropriate bibliometrics based on the community open feedback rather than on a questionable analysis of citations; * defining, more specifically, quality metrics and a formal process to certify open source software (OSS) products and the outcomes of other peer-production efforts. 3. TECHNOLOGY, by fostering and unleashing the efforts of open communities towards global availability and acceptance of new technologies. Prominent interests, here, are in supporting the open communities during the production process, and in the validation of the information produced, or made available, by such communities, especially in the case of advices provided by thematic communities, such as the user/consumer support/review communities. This year OpenCERT is collocated with SEFM, so contributions connected to the themes of FORMAL METHODS and SOFTWARE ENGINEERING will be particularly appreciated. In addition to the thematic description provided above, we will be also interested in the following aspects: 1. EDUCATION: open and collaborative approaches in Software Engineering and in Formal Methods education; 2.

This is an open call for any research field within one of the groups of the department. In particular, we have an active and welcoming PL research group working on language design and engineering, formal verification, type theory, concurrency, and other topics. Since very recently, TU Delft has a new Academic Career Track replacing the Tenure Track. Importantly, this means starting assistant professors can expect to get a permanent contract after 12-18 months, and will get training and support to grow to the level of associate professor in 6-8 years. You can find more information about the positions and the application procedure at https://www.tudelft.nl/ewi/over-de-faculteit/afdelingen/software-technology/computer-science-open-call.

Virtual Machines and the languages they implement are crucial in the specification, implementation and/or user-facing deployment of most programming technologies. The VMIL workshop is a forum for researchers and cutting-edge practitioners in language virtual machines, the intermediate languages they use, and related issues. The workshop is intended to be welcoming to a wide range of topics and perspectives, covering all areas relevant to the workshop?s theme. Aspects of interest include, but are not limited to: - design issues in VMs and IRs (e.g. IR design, VM modularity, polyglotism); - compilation (static and dynamic compilation strategies, optimizations, data representations); - memory management; - security considerations; - concurrency (both internal and user-facing); - performance engineering; - tool support and related infrastructure (profiling, debugging, liveness, persistence); - the experience of VM development (use of high-level languages, bootstrapping and self-hosting, reusability, portability, developer tooling, etc.); - empirical studies on related topics, such as usage patterns, the usability of languages or tools, experimental methodology, or benchmark design; - the use of VMs in teaching programming, programming languages, and programming language implementation. ---------------------------------- Submission Guidelines ---------------------------------- We invite high-quality papers in the following two categories: - Research and experience papers: These submissions should describe work that advances the current state of the art in the above or related areas. The suggested length of these submissions is 6?10 pages (maximum 10 pages, excluding references). - Work-in-progress or position papers: These papers should document ongoing efforts in an area of interest which have not yet yielded final results, and/or should present and defend the authors? position on a topic related to the broad area of the workshop. The maximum length of these submissions is 6 pages, but we will consider shorter submissions (e.g. a well-written 2-page abstract). Submissions will be judged on novelty, clarity, timeliness, relevance, and potential to stimulate discussion during the workshop. The workshop has two submission deadlines. For the first submission deadline, we will consider all paper types. For the second deadline, we will consider only work-in-progress and position papers. Regardless of the submission deadline, all accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library, except if the authors prefer not to be included.

Following HaPoC?s bylaws, the election procedure shall be as follows: (a) Any member of the commission can be nominated as a councilor. Nominations can be submitted by any member of the commission and shall be submitted to the president in writing. Nominations have to be received at least two months before the meeting of the commission. The president shall contact the nominee and find out whether he or she accepts the nomination. Acceptance is necessary for the nomination to become valid. (b) If there are ten or fewer valid nominations, the president informs the council and the nominees are declared elected unopposed. If there are more than ten nominations, the president shall notify the council of this and an election will take place during the meeting of the commission. The election will take place by approval voting: each present member can approve as many of the nominees as they want. The ten nominees with the highest number of approval votes are elected. In the case of ties, a lot is cast. (c) After the ten councilors are elected, they shall all declare whether they would accept an election for president-elect, treasurer, or president if the situation so requires. The members of the council then elect the president-elect, treasurer, and president if the situation so requires by approval vote. In the case of a tie, a lot is cast. Any further questions concerning the election of HaPoC?s Council should be addressed at info at hapoc.org From tobias.wrigstad at it.uu.se Wed Jul 26 04:10:52 2023 From: tobias.wrigstad at it.uu.se (Tobias Wrigstad) Date: Wed, 26 Jul 2023 08:10:52 +0000 Subject: [TYPES/announce] PhD Position in Programming Languages at Uppsala University, Sweden (lots of type opportunities) Message-ID: <31C55B9A-097D-46AE-8615-92D767B7314D@it.uu.se> There is a PhD position open at the Department of Information Technology, Uppsala University, Sweden, in the area of programming languages.

You can find more information about the symposium on its oficial website . IFL 2023 will be a venue for researchers to present and discuss new ideas and concepts, work in progress, and publication-ripe results related to the implementation and application of functional languages and function-based programming. See the call for papers in text format . Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - language concepts - type systems, type checking, type inferencing - compilation techniques - staged compilation - run-time function specialization - run-time code generation - partial evaluation - abstract interpretation - metaprogramming - generic programming - automatic program generation - array processing - concurrent/parallel programming - concurrent/parallel program execution - embedded systems - web applications - embedded domain specific languages - security - novel memory management techniques - run-time profiling performance measurements - debugging and tracing - virtual/abstract machine architectures - validation, verification of functional programs - tools and programming techniques - industrial applications PAPER SUBMISSIONS Following IFL tradition, IFL 2023 will use a post-symposium review process to produce the formal proceedings. Before the symposium, authors submit draft papers. These draft papers will be screened by the program chair to make sure that they are within the scope of IFL. The draft papers will be made available to all participants at the symposium. Each draft paper is presented by one of the authors at the symposium. Notice that it is a requirement that accepted draft papers are presented physically at the symposium. After the symposium every presenter is invited to submit a full paper, incorporating feedback from discussions at the symposium. Work submitted to IFL may not be simultaneously submitted to other venues; submissions must adhere to ACM SIGPLAN's republication policy. The program committee will evaluate these submissions according to their correctness, novelty, originality, relevance, significance, and clarity, and will thereby determine whether the paper is accepted or rejected for the formal proceedings. As in previous years, we will try to have the papers that are accepted for the formal proceedings published in the International Conference Proceedings Series of the ACM Digital Library. This possibility will be confirmed as soon as possible. Reviewing is single blind. There will be at least 3 reviews per paper. For the camera-ready version the authors can make minor revisions which are accepted without further reviewing. Papers must use the ACM two columns conference format, which can be found here . (For LaTeX users, start your document with \documentclass[sigconf,screen,review]{acmart}.) All contributions must be written in English. Note that this format has a rather long but limited list of packages that can be used. Please make sure that your document adheres to this list. The page limit for papers is twelve pages (excluding references). Only papers that were presented at the IFL 2023 Symposium will be considered for publication. See the webpage for paper submissions. LOCATION IFL 2023 will be held physically in Braga, Portugal. For more information, click here . Registration information will be added as soon as possible.

IFL 2022 will be a venue for researchers to present and discuss new ideas and concepts, work in progress, and publication-ripe results related to the implementation and application of functional languages and function-based programming. Topics of interest to IFL include, but are not limited to: * language concepts * type systems, type checking, type inferencing * compilation techniques * staged compilation * run-time function specialization * run-time code generation * partial evaluation * abstract interpretation * metaprogramming * generic programming * automatic program generation * array processing * concurrent/parallel programming * concurrent/parallel program execution * embedded systems * web applications * embedded domain specific languages * security * novel memory management techniques * run-time profiling performance measurements * debugging and tracing * virtual/abstract machine architectures * validation, verification of functional programs * tools and programming techniques * industrial applications *Submissions and peer-review* Following IFL tradition, IFL 2023 will use a post-symposium review process to produce the formal proceedings. Before the symposium authors submit draft papers. These draft papers will be screened by the program chair to make sure that they are within the scope of IFL. The draft papers will be made available to all participants at the symposium. Each draft paper is presented by one of the authors at the symposium. Notice that it is a requirement that accepted draft papers are presented physically at the symposium. After the symposium, a formal review process will take place, conducted by the program committee. Reviewing is single blind. There will be at least 3 reviews per paper. The reviewers have 6 weeks to write their reviews. For the camera-ready version the authors can make minor revisions which are accepted without further reviewing. Contributions submitted for the draft paper deadline must be between two and twelve pages long. For submission details, please consult the IFL 2023 website at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://ifl23.github.io/__;!!IBzWLUs!WPJGdkXV4zbHJbKxTIZ99IUOP9nyNHlbyAUp38l-vpPT3gi_zxGSOx9egudIXV61kNhMDLa3e68Iqk1qdPK-Sjr38sT8mDnV7zf7LtpD$ . *Where* IFL 2023 will be held physically in Braga, Portugal, arranged by University of Minho.

From the beginning, SC was also considered a major approach to "artificial intelligence", since the problems solved by SC, typically, are problems that were considered hard for "human intelligence" (like symbolic integration, theorem proving, SAT/SMT solving, program verification, hardware verification, etc.). Meanwhile, recent advances in artificial intelligence methods have provided new exciting opportunities in science and industry, being more and more integrated into most aspects of life. Machine learning (ML) methods, developed in parallel to symbolic methods for solving hard "artificial intelligence" problems, achieved spectacular results in numerous applications in recent years. This special issue is dedicated to the interaction of symbolic computation and machine learning methods seen as the two major approaches to "artificial intelligence". We expect dramatic advances from a much closer interaction of the SC and the ML approaches to artificial intelligence. This interplay is, in fact, essential in the current scenario where the economy and society demand the development of complex, data-intensive, trustable, and high-performant computational systems that accompany humans in more and more facets of their daily life. The special issue is organized as a follow-up of the 24th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing, SYNASC 2022. Participants of the symposium, as well as other authors, are invited to submit contributions. We welcome submissions describing the interaction of SC and ML methods, techniques, and tools, and their applications in AI. SUBMISSION ----------- This special issue welcomes high-quality contributions, including papers with original research results as well as review articles.

Abstract and submission deadlines are strict and there will be no extensions. DISTINGUISHED PAPER AWARDS Around 10% of the accepted papers at CPP 2024 will be designated as Distinguished Papers. This award highlights papers that the CPP program committee thinks should be read by a broad audience due to their relevance, originality, significance and clarity. TOPICS OF INTEREST We welcome submissions in research areas related to formal certification of programs and proofs. The following is a non-exhaustive list of topics of interest to CPP: * certified or certifying programming, compilation, linking, OS kernels, runtime systems, security monitors, and hardware; * certified mathematical libraries and mathematical theorems; * proof assistants (e.g, ACL2, Agda, Coq, Dafny, F*, HOL4, HOL Light, Idris, Isabelle, Lean, Mizar, Nuprl, PVS, etc); * new languages and tools for certified programming; * program analysis, program verification, and program synthesis; * program logics, type systems, and semantics for certified code; * logics for certifying concurrent and distributed systems; * mechanized metatheory, formalized programming language semantics, and logical frameworks; * higher-order logics, dependent type theory, proof theory, logical systems, separation logics, and logics for security; * verification of correctness and security properties; * formally verified blockchains and smart contracts; * certificates for decision procedures, including linear algebra, polynomial systems, SAT, SMT, and unification in algebras of interest; * certificates for semi-decision procedures, including equality, first-order logic, and higher-order unification; * certificates for program termination; * formal models of computation; * mechanized (un)decidability and computational complexity proofs; * formally certified methods for induction and coinduction; * integration of interactive and automated provers; * logical foundations of proof assistants; * applications of AI and machine learning to formal certification; * user interfaces for proof assistants and theorem provers; * teaching mathematics and computer science with proof assistants. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Prior to the paper submission deadline, the authors should upload their anonymized paper in PDF format through the HotCRP system at https://cpp2024.hotcrp.com The submissions must be written in English and provide sufficient detail to allow the program committee to assess the merits of the contribution. They must be formatted following the ACM SIGPLAN Proceedings format using the acmart style with the sigplan option, which provides a two-column style, using 10 point font for the main text, and a header for double blind review submission, i.e., \documentclass[sigplan,10pt,anonymous,review]{acmart}\settopmatter{printfolios=true,printccs=false,printacmref=false} The submitted papers should not exceed 12 pages, including tables and figures, but excluding bibliography and clearly marked appendices. The papers should be self-contained without the appendices. Shorter papers are welcome and will be given equal consideration. Submissions not conforming to the requirements concerning format and maximum length may be rejected without further consideration. CPP 2024 will employ a lightweight double-blind reviewing process following the process from previous years. To facilitate this, the submissions must adhere to two rules: (1) author names and institutions must be omitted, and (2) references to authors? own related work should be in the third person (e.g., not "We build on our previous work ..." but rather "We build on the work of ..."). The purpose of this process is to help the PC and external reviewers come to an initial judgment about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing it more difficult. In particular, important background references should not be omitted or anonymized. In addition, authors are free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their papers as usual. For example, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web or give talks on their research ideas. Note that POPL 2024 itself will employ full double-blind reviewing, which differs from the light-weight CPP process. This FAQ from previous SIGPLAN conference addresses many common concerns: https://popl20.sigplan.org/track/POPL-2020-Research-Papers#Submission-and-Reviewing-FAQ We strongly encourage the authors to provide any supplementary material that supports the claims made in the paper, such as proof scripts or experimental data. This material must be uploaded at submission time, as an archive, not via a URL. Two forms of supplementary material may be submitted: (1) Anonymous supplementary material is made available to the reviewers before they submit their first-draft reviews. (2) Non-anonymous supplementary material is made available to the reviewers after they have submitted their first-draft reviews and have learned the identity of the authors. Please use anonymous supplementary material whenever possible, so that it can be taken into account from the beginning of the reviewing process. The submitted papers must adhere to the SIGPLAN Republication Policy (https://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/ ) and the ACM Policy on Plagiarism (https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism ). Concurrent submissions to other conferences, journals, workshops with proceedings, or similar forums of publication are not allowed. The PC chairs should be informed of closely related work submitted to a conference or journal in advance of submission. One author of each accepted paper is expected to present it at the (possibly virtual) conference. PUBLICATION, COPYRIGHT AND OPEN ACCESS The CPP 2024 proceedings will be published by the ACM, and authors of accepted papers will be required to choose one of the following publication options: (1) Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM a non-exclusive permission-to-publish license and, optionally, licenses the work under a Creative Commons license. (2) Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM an exclusive permission-to-publish license. (3) Author transfers copyright of the work to ACM. For authors who can afford it, we recommend option (1), which will make the paper Gold Open Access, and also encourage such authors to license their work under the CC-BY license. ACM will charge you an article processing fee for this option (currently, US$700), which you have to pay directly with the ACM. You don?t need to pay this fee if the corresponding author?s affiliating institution is part of ACM OPEN (https://libraries.acm.org/subscriptions-access/open-participants ). For everyone else, we recommend option (2), which is free and allows you to achieve Green Open Access, by uploading a preprint of your paper to a repository that guarantees permanent archival such as arXiv or HAL. This is anyway a good idea for timely dissemination even if you chose option 1. The official CPP 2024 proceedings will also be available via SIGPLAN OpenTOC (http://www.sigplan.org/OpenTOC/#cpp ). For ACM?s take on this, see their Copyright Policy (http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/copyright-policy ) and Author Rights (http://authors.acm.org/main.html ).

They are often embodied in robotic systems that can interact with the real world, and they make independent decisions. Amongst other categories, they can be viewed as safety-critical, cyber-physical, hybrid, and real-time systems. Key challenges for applying formal methods to autonomous systems include: the system's dynamic deployment environment; verifying the system's decision making capabilities -- including planning, ethical, and reconfiguration choices; and using formal methods results as evidence given to certification or regulatory organisations. FMAS welcomes submissions that use formal methods to specify, model, or verify autonomous systems; in whole or in part. We are especially interested in work using integrated formal methods, where multiple (formal or non-formal) methods are combined during the software engineering process. We encourage submissions that are advancing the applicability of formal methods for autonomous systems, for example improving integration or explainability, automation or knowledge transfer of these technique; a wider discussion of these principles can be found in 'A Manifesto for Applicable Formal Methods'?https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.12758__;!!IBzWLUs!Rb3WTC6Ip81x_GxsIo-WBedTGMO-U_ZV5FBridnmNIiOLm-PMb8v1T4iEMA95MCzvcgJ_TAVINH4_NHV3vRm2QkUa-_wtIEb6bEtwQ$ . Autonomous systems are often embedded in robotic or cyber-physical systems, and they share many features (and verification challenges) with automated systems. FMAS welcomes submissions with applications to: automated systems, semi-autonomous systems, or fully-autonomous systems. Topics Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): Applicable, tool-supported Formal Methods that are suited to Autonomous Systems Runtime Verification or other formal approaches to deal with the reality gap (the gap between models/simulations and the real world), Verification against safety assurance arguments or standards documents, Formal specification and requirements engineering approaches for autonomous systems, Case Studies that identify challenges when applying formal methods to autonomous systems, Experience Reports that provide guidance for tackling challenges with formal methods or tools, or Discussions of the future directions of the field. Because the above list is not exhaustive, if you are unsure if your paper is in scope for FMAS please feel free to email us (addresses below) to discuss it. Submission and Publication There are four categories of submission: Vision papers?6 pages (excluding references)?describe directions for research into Formal Methods for Autonomous Systems; Research previews?6 pages (excluding references)?describe well-defined research ideas that are in their early stages, and my not be fully developed yet. Work from PhD students is particularly welcome; Experience report papers?15 pages (excluding references)?report on practical experiences in applying Formal Methods to Autonomous Systems, focussing on the experience and lessons to be learnt; Regular papers?15 pages (excluding references)?describe completed applications of Formal Methods to an Autonomous System, new or improved approaches, evaluations of existing approaches, and so on. These categories are intended to help you show your intent for your paper, and to allow a fairer comparison of papers. For example, a Research Preview won't be judged as not developed enough for acceptance, purely because it is compared to a Standard Paper. The category descriptions are not exhaustive and should be interpreted broadly. If you are unsure if your paper clearly fits into one of these categories, please feel free to email us (details below) to discuss it. We are applying for a special issue with Science of Computer Programming to accompany FMAS 2023.

Submissions will undergo a single-blind review process. There will be three categories of papers: regular papers, tool papers, and case studies. Papers in each category have a different page limit and will be evaluated differently. Regular papers clearly identify and justify an advance to the field of verification, abstract interpretation, or model checking. Where applicable, they are supported by experimental validation. Regular papers are restricted to 20 pages in LNCS format, not counting references. Tool papers present a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to an existing tool. They should provide a short description of the theoretical foundations with relevant citations and emphasize the design and implementation concerns, including software architecture and core data structures. A regular tool paper should give a clear account of the tool?s functionality, discuss the tool?s practical capabilities with reference to the type and size of problems it can handle, describe experience with realistic case studies, and, where applicable, provide a rigorous experimental evaluation. Papers that present extensions to existing tools should clearly focus on the improvements or extensions with respect to previously published versions of the tool, preferably substantiated by data on enhancements in terms of resources and capabilities. Authors are strongly encouraged to make their tools publicly available and submit an artifact. Tool papers are restricted to 12 pages in LNCS format, not counting references. Case studies are expected to describe the use of verification, model checking, and abstract interpretation techniques in new application domains or industrial settings. Papers in this category do not necessarily need to present original research results but are expected to contain novel applications of formal methods and techniques as well as an evaluation of these techniques in the chosen application domain. Such papers are encouraged to discuss the unique challenges of transferring research ideas to a real-world setting and reflect on any lessons learned from this technology transfer experience. Case study papers are restricted to 20 pages in LNCS format, not counting references. (Shorter case study papers are also welcome.) *Artifacts* VMCAI 2024 allows authors to submit an artifact along with a paper. Artifacts are any additional material that substantiates the claims made in the paper, and ideally makes them fully replicable. Artifacts of interest include (but are not limited to): * Software, Tools, or Frameworks * Data sets * Test suites * Machine checkable proofs * Any combination of them * Any other artifact described in the paper Artifact submission is optional. However, we highly encourage all authors to also submit an artifact. A successfully evaluated artifact can increase your chance of being accepted since the evaluation result of your artifact is taken into account during the paper review. The artifact will be evaluated in parallel with the submission by the artifact evaluation committee (AEC). The AEC will read the paper and evaluate the artifact on the following criteria: - consistency with and replicability of results in the paper, - completeness, - documentation, and - ease of use.

The goal of the project is to develop an innovative model-driven methodology and framework that facilitates planning business processes with highly automated analyses and tool support. Cross-organisational workflows involve multiple concurrently running business processes, each of which consists of multiple workflows within an organisation, coming from different organisations. While tasks in these individual workflows may run independently in parallel, there are very often dependencies between them, e.g., execution orders or shared resources, which makes planning such workflows particularly challenging and error prone. The project aims to leverage various techniques in formal methods to model and analyse cross-organisational workflows in terms of concurrent programs, and to automate workflow revisioning upon changes in the dependencies. This is an exciting position for candidates interested in modelling for business processes and in topics such as software verification, static analysis and formal modelling languages. Together with the other project members and partners, the prospective student will contribute to the project from the perspectives including reconstructing existing workflows in the form of a formal model based on event logs, developing automated formal analyses to identify potential bottlenecks in the model and self-adaptive techniques to revise workflow models. The PhD students will collaborate with the project external partners, including Haukeland University Hospital in Bergen, Uppsala University in Sweden and the University of L?beck in Germany.

Starting this year, SIGLOG is an approved nominating organization for the Research Highlights section. Accordingly, the Research Highlights Committee of ACM SIGLOG is looking for nominations of high-quality papers from the past year in the areas related to SIGLOG that can be appreciated by the broader public of the computer science research community. There are three key criteria for a good Research Highlights paper: + The work must be a strong, novel research contribution. + It should be of broad interest to the computing community. (This means the selection criterion is not necessarily the same as that for Best Papers and other awards, which can recognize papers that are quite narrow and focused on a very small community.) + Papers should have that little extra ?pop? that sets them apart even from other strong results in their field. A nomination should suggest that you think a paper should be one of the most widely read papers in computer science. It should be noted that a Research Highlights paper is not the ?journal version? of a conference paper. Instead, it is essentially a reprint of the paper and does not preclude a later journal version. There is no deadline for submitting nominations, but since it is the first year SIGLOG is participating in the Research Highlights, we would like to review initial nominations as early as possible.

Such formalisms enjoy both sound theoretical bases and the availability of attractive frameworks for application development. Indeed, they have been already successfully applied to many different real-world situations, ranging from database management to active networks to software engineering to decision support systems. New developments in theory and implementation fostered applications in new areas. At the same time, applications of declarative languages to novel and challenging problems raise many interesting research issues, including designing for scalability, language extensions for application deployment, and programming environments. Thus, applications drive the progress in the theory and implementation of declarative systems, and benefit from this progress as well. PADL is a well-established forum for researchers and practitioners to present original work emphasizing novel applications and implementation techniques for all forms of declarative programming, including functional and logic programming, database and constraint programming, and theorem proving. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Innovative applications of declarative languages - Declarative domain-specific languages and applications - Practical applications of theoretical results - New language developments and their impact on applications - Declarative languages and software engineering - Evaluation of implementation techniques on practical applications - Practical experiences and industrial applications - Novel uses of declarative languages in the classroom - Practical extensions such as constraint-based, probabilistic, and reactive languages PADL 2024 especially welcomes new ideas and approaches related to applications, design and implementation of declarative languages going beyond the scope of the past PADL symposia, for example, advanced database languages and contract languages, as well as verification and theorem proving methods that rely on declarative languages. Submissions ----------- PADL 2024 welcomes three kinds of submission: * Technical papers (max. 15 pages): Technical papers must describe original, previously unpublished research results. * Application papers (max. 8 pages): Application papers are a mechanism to present important practical applications of declarative languages that occur in industry or in areas of research other than Computer Science. Application papers are expected to describe complex and/or real-world applications that rely on an innovative use of declarative languages. Application descriptions, engineering solutions and real-world experiences (both positive and negative) are solicited. * Extended abstracts (max. 3 pages): Describing new ideas, a new perspective on already published work, or work-in-progress that is not yet ready for a full publication. Extended abstracts will be posted on the symposium website but will not be published in the formal proceedings. All page limits exclude references. Submissions must be written in English and formatted according to the standard Springer LNCS style, see https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!TCODq6gqYNrAObnGlWwOUMtOE6fxG57q4WJGS-EyvST_fTWC0mpRiNNx4c6v0SOnC94cpq21EjKwKjkEXDOuVlFDxX1S8e5WoCVn9jSmvws$ Page numbers (and, if possible, line numbers) should appear on the manuscript to help the reviewers in writing their reports.

The FOX research group at Sheffield is growing rapidly. These posts provide excellent opportunities for graduate students (UK and overseas) to obtain a PhD in any active research area of the group (see below the research interests of potential supervisors). The posts are fully funded for three and half years. Note that exceptionally strong overseas candidates will be considered as well, with full cover of tuition fees. Dr. Charles Grellois is mainly interested in the verification of functional programs, would they be deterministic or probabilistic. He has worked on higher-order model-checking in the deterministic case, and on higher-order termination analysis in the probabilistic case. These approaches use techniques from linear logic and its models, category theory, (intersection) type theory, tree automata theory, probabilistic semantics, realizability? Several interesting questions are still open so that several different PhD projects could be discussed on these topics; but he is also open to other research topics in this area, to be discussed with the prospective student. Dr. Maksim Zhukovskii is interested in combinatorics, probability, logic, computational and descriptive complexity. Currently Maksim is working on variety of topics including extremal combinatorics (Turan-type questions, saturation, colourings, etc), random graphs (thresholds, limiting distributions, logical limit laws, almost sure theories), average-case complexity (canonical labelling of random graphs, search problems in random graphs, reconstruction problems), enumerative combinatorics (random regular graphs, degree sequences), algebraic combinatorics (Cayley graphs, isomorphism problem for abelian groups, matroids), random walks, first order logic and expressive power of its fragments, second order logic and modal logic. See scholar.google.com/citations?user=sd_xBDQAAAAJ for the list of publications. Dr. Jonni Virtema is keen to supervise students in any area of his current research, which relate to the interplay of logic and complexity theory. Current topics include logics and complexity theory related to numerical data, and temporal logics designed to express so-called hyperproperties, which are important in information flow and security. A further emerging topic is to study foundations of neural networks using the machinery of logics and complexity theory related to numerical data. See https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.virtema.fi__;!!IBzWLUs!QyOzq3D1xU_lLIsJCBb9BC8RpiopebcSrv1ACMeeFs91hsnLZGxGYhW154XeW-OTqj_KNbM0lX-nX4kDONDNVE_GkqdlQD0G56c$ for further details. Dr. Harsh Beohar is broadly interested in comparative concurrency semantics and in the interplay of category theory, logic, and semantics. Current topics include expressive modal logics, behavioural equivalence games, synthesising distinguishing/characteristic formulae all at the level of coalgebras.

This has been motivated by the fact that the public-key cryptosystems used today will be no longer secure under large-scale quantum computers, which are promisingly becoming available in the near future because of the huge research and development investment. Significant efforts have been spent to standardize post-quantum cryptographic primitives and protocols, especially after the Post-quantum Cryptography Standardization Project started by NIST (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://csrc.nist.gov/projects/post-quantum-cryptography__;!!IBzWLUs!UAuFsdxmYV3Bg9bHUsUtF2JL59JWkStKhcCibkZ3vXpUy9yD5q82jj8qj5Y00e_qm9dafAzInLpPndDiPGWzxb1vAl55_kIaTq0$ ). Therefore, security analysis/verification of those post-quantum cryptographic protocols is an important factor in the construction of the finally secure cryptosystems. Following the successful workshop last year in Spain, this year, the 2nd workshop will be held in Brisbane, Australia. TOPICS OF INTEREST Authors are invited to submit papers describing original and unpublished work somehow related to formal analysis and verification of post-quantum cryptographic protocols.

The page limit depends on the paper?s category (see below). In each category, additional material beyond the page limit may be placed in a clearly marked appendix to be read at the discretion of the reviewers and to be omitted in the final version.

All accepted papers will be published in Springer?s Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Submissions will undergo a single-blind review process. There will be three categories of papers: regular papers, tool papers, and case studies. Papers in each category have a different page limit and will be evaluated differently. Regular papers clearly identify and justify an advance to the field of verification, abstract interpretation, or model checking. Where applicable, they are supported by experimental validation. Regular papers are restricted to 20 pages in LNCS format, not counting references. Tool papers present a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to an existing tool. They should provide a short description of the theoretical foundations with relevant citations and emphasize the design and implementation concerns, including software architecture and core data structures. A regular tool paper should give a clear account of the tool?s functionality, discuss the tool?s practical capabilities with reference to the type and size of problems it can handle, describe experience with realistic case studies, and, where applicable, provide a rigorous experimental evaluation. Papers that present extensions to existing tools should clearly focus on the improvements or extensions with respect to previously published versions of the tool, preferably substantiated by data on enhancements in terms of resources and capabilities. Authors are strongly encouraged to make their tools publicly available and submit an artifact. Tool papers are restricted to 12 pages in LNCS format, not counting references. Case studies are expected to describe the use of verification, model checking, and abstract interpretation techniques in new application domains or industrial settings. Papers in this category do not necessarily need to present original research results but are expected to contain novel applications of formal methods and techniques as well as an evaluation of these techniques in the chosen application domain. Such papers are encouraged to discuss the unique challenges of transferring research ideas to a real-world setting and reflect on any lessons learned from this technology transfer experience. Case study papers are restricted to 20 pages in LNCS format, not counting references. (Shorter case study papers are also welcome.) * Artifacts * VMCAI 2024 allows authors to submit an artifact along with a paper. Artifacts are any additional material that substantiates the claims made in the paper, and ideally makes them fully replicable. Artifacts of interest include (but are not limited to): - Software, Tools, or Frameworks - Data sets - Test suites - Machine checkable proofs - Any combination of them - Any other artifact described in the paper Artifact submission is optional. However, we highly encourage all authors to also submit an artifact. A successfully evaluated artifact can increase your chance of being accepted since the evaluation result of your artifact is taken into account during the paper review.

Notification of intent : 20 October 2023 Submission deadline : 1 December 2023 *** If you are attending the ICFP conference in Seattle this week, please feel free to speak with Nicolas Wu if you have any questions about submitting for the special issue *** SCOPE The idea of program calculation, in which programs are derived from specifications using equational reasoning techniques, has been a topic of interest in functional programming since its earliest days. In particular, the approach allows us to systematically discover how programs can be defined, while at the same time obtaining proofs that they are correct. The aim of this special issue is to document advances that have been made in the field of program calculation in recent years. TOPICS Full-length, archival-quality submissions are solicited on all aspects of program calculation and related topics. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Program derivation and transformation; - Inductive and co-inductive methods; - Recursion and co-recursion schemes; - Categorical and graphical methods; - Tool support and proof assistants; - Efficiency and resource usage; - Functional algorithm design; - Calculation case studies. The special issue will also consider papers on program calculation that are not traditional research papers. This may include pearls, surveys, tutorials or educational papers, which will be judged by the usual JFP standards for such submissions.

The aim of the project is to develop methods for statically analysing programs intended for near-term quantum computers by combining techniques from the verification of probabilistic programs and the verification of quantum programs. This shall enable developers on quantum hardware to drastically reduce the amount of testing and simulation required, and to detect errors early in the program design and to understand them more easily, thus streamlining the software development process and significantly reducing testing and simulation costs. A particular focus will be on near-term systems with realistic error models (NISQ), and on use-cases from practice. The project is a cooperation between the Chair of Quantum Information Systems and the Software Modeling and Verification (MOVES) group at RWTH Aachen University and will be jointly supervised by Joost-Pieter Katoen and Dominique Unruh. *Application deadline:* September 25, 23:59 (AoE) *Required profile.* Candidates must have (or soon obtain) a master degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics or related area and have completed their studies with excellent grades. You should have interest in performing original, highly competitive scientific research, publishing your results in top conferences and scientific journals. Self-motivation and the ability to work both independently and as a team player in local and international research groups are expected. Fluency in English is required; proficiency in German is helpful but not compulsory. *What do we offer?* We offer a stimulating international research environment, the possibility to participate in highly competitive and interdisciplinary research and the opportunity to involve students in your research through project work. Doctoral researchers have a status as employee with a salary according to the German federal employee scale TV-L E13; the exact salary is subject to your family situation.

It originated with the discoveries of useful automated techniques for evaluating programs with only partial input. Over the years, the scope of PEPM has expanded to include a variety of research areas centred around the theme of semantics-based program manipulation ? the systematic exploitation of treating programs not only as subjects to black-box execution but also as data structures that can be generated, analysed, and transformed while establishing or maintaining important semantic properties. Scope ----- In addition to the traditional PEPM topics (see below), PEPM 2024 welcomes submissions in new domains, in particular: * Semantics based and machine-learning based program synthesis and program optimisation. * Modelling, analysis, and transformation techniques for distributed and concurrent protocols and programs, such as session types, linear types, and contract specifications. More generally, topics of interest for PEPM 2024 include, but are not limited to: * Program and model manipulation techniques such as: supercompilation, partial evaluation, fusion, on-the-fly program adaptation, active libraries, program inversion, slicing, symbolic execution, refactoring, decompilation, and obfuscation. * Techniques that treat programs/models as data objects including metaprogramming, generative programming, embedded domain-specific languages, program synthesis by sketching and inductive programming, staged computation, and model-driven program generation and transformation. * Program analysis techniques that are used to drive program/model manipulation such as: abstract interpretation, termination checking, binding-time analysis, constraint solving, type systems, automated testing and test case generation. * Application of the above techniques including case studies of program manipulation in real-world (industrial, open-source) projects and software development processes, descriptions of robust tools capable of effectively handling realistic applications, benchmarking. Examples of application domains include legacy program understanding and transformation, DSL implementations, visual languages and end-user programming, scientific computing, middleware frameworks and infrastructure needed for distributed and web-based applications, embedded and resource-limited computation, and security. This list of categories is not exhaustive, and we encourage submissions describing new theories and applications related to semantics-based program manipulation in general. If you have a question as to whether a potential submission is within the scope of the workshop, please contact the programme co-chairs, Gabriele Keller (g.k.keller at uu.nl) and Meng Wang (meng.wang at bristol.ac.uk). Submission categories and guidelines ------------------------------------ Three kinds of submissions will be accepted: * Regular Research Papers should describe new results, and will be judged on originality, correctness, significance, and clarity. Regular research papers must not exceed 12 pages. * Short Papers may include tool demonstrations and presentations of exciting if not fully polished research, and of interesting academic, industrial, and open-source applications that are new or unfamiliar. Short papers must not exceed 6 pages. * Talk Proposals may propose lectures about topics of interest for PEPM, existing work representing relevant contributions, or promising contributions that are not mature enough to be proposed as papers of the other categories. Talk Proposals must not exceed 2 pages. References and appendices are not included in page limits. Appendices may not necessarily be read by reviewers. Both kinds of submissions should be typeset using the two-column ?sigplan? sub-format of the new ?acmart? format available at: https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://sigplan.org/Resources/Author/__;!!IBzWLUs!VO7SXitfOyP-Pv_SglZ8SedUdPYoSG-nFUzsFc5n7prylhdh0yEHPU3x-EUf0fxwjwAk_wSySu4mPdSYp1ggzWpoMHEgNdcMBN72WDCv$ and submitted electronically via EasyChair: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pepm24__;!!IBzWLUs!VO7SXitfOyP-Pv_SglZ8SedUdPYoSG-nFUzsFc5n7prylhdh0yEHPU3x-EUf0fxwjwAk_wSySu4mPdSYp1ggzWpoMHEgNdcMBGI0RbWG$ Reviewing will be single-blind.

In addition to Research Papers, ESOP 2024 solicits two new forms of contributions: Experience Reports and Fresh Perspectives NEW! Papers submitted in the Research Papers category may use any formatting and have no fixed page limit. Important Dates AoE (UTC-12) - Paper submission: October 12, 2023 - Rebuttal: Tuesday 5 December - Thursday 7 December, 2023 - Paper notification: December 21, 2023 - Artifact submission: January 4, 2024 - Paper final version: January 23, 2024 - Artifact notification: February 8, 2024 Scope ESOP is an annual conference devoted to fundamental issues in the specification, design, analysis, and implementation of programming languages and systems. ESOP seeks contributions on all aspects of programming language research including, but not limited to, the following areas: programming paradigms and styles, methods and tools to specify and reason about programs and languages, programming language foundations, methods and tools for implementation, concurrency and distribution, applications and emerging topics. Contributions bridging the gap between theory and practice are particularly welcome. Submission Categories Research Papers are articles that advance the state-of-the-art on the theory and practice of programming languages and systems. For the sake of flexibility, submitted research papers may be formatted in Springer?s LNCS, ACM's PACMPL, or ACM's TOPLAS format. There is no page limit for submissions, but authors should be aware that reviewers are likely to balance the review time for all papers and that camera-ready papers may not exceed 25 pages (excluding bibliography) and must be formatted in Springer?s LNCS. Experience Reports are articles reporting on systems and techniques developed in practice, such as artifacts, tools, mechanized proofs, and educational systems, both in academic and industrial settings. These articles must include a critical evaluation of the experience reported. Submitted and camera-ready experience report papers must be formatted in Springer?s LNCS, not exceeding 15 pages (excluding bibliography). Fresh Perspectives are articles that promote new insights on programming languages and systems in a particularly elegant way. These papers may offer new tutorial perspectives of known concepts or they may introduce fresh new insights and ideas that could lead to relevant future developments. Submitted and camera-ready fresh perspective papers must be formatted in Springer?s LNCS, not exceeding 15 pages (excluding bibliography). Springer's formatting style files and other information can be found on the Springer website: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!WxelcaLRaWRT0XfMTrxAsb3qBKhaE-xT4tQwLy6kwsBLSQlLvsOJq8kYBcXooknSJA44-d3IjbMi9JuJbq7Z4AyHCUVxY3DxmdrFxw$ Review Process The review process is double-blind with a rebuttal phase. In submitted papers, authors should omit names and institutions; refer to prior work in the third person; and should not include acknowledgements that might reveal their identity. During the evaluation period authors are free to speak publicly about their work and distribute preprints of their submitted papers. However, authors should avoid actions that would reveal their identities, such as directly contacting PC members. Submission link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=esop2024__;!!IBzWLUs!WxelcaLRaWRT0XfMTrxAsb3qBKhaE-xT4tQwLy6kwsBLSQlLvsOJq8kYBcXooknSJA44-d3IjbMi9JuJbq7Z4AyHCUVxY3DT_xcEDw$ Accepted papers will be published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Artifact Evaluation ESOP 2024 will have a post-paper-acceptance voluntary artifact evaluation. Authors will be encouraged to submit artifacts for evaluation after paper notification. The outcome will not alter the paper acceptance decision. Note: Artifacts may be submitted with an accompanying short 5 page experience report (including 1 page bibliography), that will appear in the conference proceedings. Journal-After Submissions Revised and expanded versions of accepted ESOP research papers are eligible for the ESOP Journal-After TOPLAS channel. A call will open in January at a predefined date after the ESOP notification, and to which all accepted papers may apply. A first light review round will be performed by the ESOP PC, to reach Reject or Revise decisions. Papers with Revise decisions will proceed to a second thorough review round, in which additional reviews will be coordinated with TOPLAS, towards a final Reject or Accept decision.

Papers may target any stage of software development, including requirements, modelling, prototyping, design, implementation, generation, analysis, verification, testing, evaluation, maintenance, and reuse of software systems. Contributions may include the development of new tools, techniques, principles, and evaluations. #### Review Process PACMPL(OOPSLA) has two rounds of reviewing with submission deadlines around October and April each year. As you submit your paper you will receive around three reviews and an opportunity to provide an author response that will be read and addressed by the reviewers in the final decision outcome summary. There are 5 possible outcomes at the end of the round: *Accept*: Your paper will appear in the upcoming volume of PACMPL (OOPSLA). *Conditional Accept*: You will receive a list of required revisions that you will need to address. You must submit a revised paper, a clear explanation of how your revision addresses these comments, and "if possible" a diff of the PDF as supplementary material. Assuming you meet the listed requirements, after further review by the same reviewers, your paper will very likely be accepted. This process *has to be completed within two months of the initial decision* for the paper to be accepted, so we encourage timely turnaround in case revisions take more than one cycle to be accepted. *Minor Revision*: The reviewers have concerns that go beyond what can be enumerated in a list. Therefore, while you may receive a list of revisions suggested by the reviewers, this will not necessarily be comprehensive. You will have the opportunity to resubmit your revised paper and have it re-reviewed by the same reviewers, which may or may not result in your paper's acceptance. When you resubmit, you should clearly explain how the revisions address the comments of the reviewers, by including a document describing the changes and "if possible" a diff of the PDF as supplementary material. This process *has to be completed within two months of the initial decision* for the paper to be accepted in the current round, so we encourage timely turnaround in case revisions take more than one cycle to be accepted. *Major Revision*: You will receive a list of revisions suggested by the reviewers. Papers in this category are *invited to submit a revision to the next round of submissions* with a specific set of expectations to be met. When you resubmit, you should clearly explain how the revisions address the comments of the reviewers, by including a document describing the changes and "if possible" a diff of the PDF as supplementary material. The revised paper will be re-evaluated in the next round. Resubmitted papers will retain the same reviewers throughout the process to the extent possible. *Reject*: Rejected papers will not be included in the upcoming volume of PACMPL(OOPSLA). Papers in this category are not guaranteed a review if resubmitted less than one year from the date of the original submission. A paper will be judged to be a resubmission if it is substantially similar to the original submission. The Chairs will decide whether or not a paper is a resubmission of the same work. ### Submissions Submitted papers must be at most **23 pages** in 10 point font. There is no page limit on references. No appendices are allowed on the main paper, instead authors can upload supplementary material with no page or content restrictions, but reviewers may choose to ignore it. Submissions must adhere to the "ACM Small" template available from [the ACM](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions__;!!IBzWLUs!Skl6kL1a00YzY2eLBO_wyjIe_fI9UZJosSG2pnE6kgAvn8rKD0cYei5vmkKwv_n6yU_CyTlBXHOkzVknJYUYFBHlkt4AySw$ ). Papers are expected to use author-year citations. Author-year citations may be used as either a noun phrase, such as "The lambda calculus was originally conceived by Church (1932)", or a parenthetic phase, such as "The lambda calculus (Church 1932) was intended as a foundation for mathematics". PACMPL uses double-blind reviewing. Authors' identities are only revealed if a paper is accepted. Papers must 1. omit author names and institutions, 2. use the third person when referencing your work, 3. anonymise supplementary material. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission; see the DBR FAQ. When in doubt, contact the Review Committee Chairs. Papers must describe unpublished work that is not currently submitted for publication elsewhere as described by [SIGPLAN's Republication Policy](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication__;!!IBzWLUs!Skl6kL1a00YzY2eLBO_wyjIe_fI9UZJosSG2pnE6kgAvn8rKD0cYei5vmkKwv_n6yU_CyTlBXHOkzVknJYUYFBHl1apEAAE$ ). Submitters should also be aware of [ACM's Policy and Procedures on Plagiarism](https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism_policy__;!!IBzWLUs!Skl6kL1a00YzY2eLBO_wyjIe_fI9UZJosSG2pnE6kgAvn8rKD0cYei5vmkKwv_n6yU_CyTlBXHOkzVknJYUYFBHlkIa0eVA$ ). Submissions are expected to comply with the [ACM Policies for Authorship](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/information-for-authors__;!!IBzWLUs!Skl6kL1a00YzY2eLBO_wyjIe_fI9UZJosSG2pnE6kgAvn8rKD0cYei5vmkKwv_n6yU_CyTlBXHOkzVknJYUYFBHl6aaFjV0$ ). #### Artifacts Authors should indicate with their initial submission if an artifact exists, describe its nature and limitations, and indicate if it will be submitted for evaluation. Accepted papers that fail to provide an artifact will be requested to explain the reason they cannot support replication. It is understood that some papers have no artifacts. Please note that the artifact submission deadline will be following closely the paper submission deadline so make sure you check the Artifact Call as soon as you submit your paper to PACMPL(OOPSLA). ##### Data-Availability Statement To help readers find data and software, OOPSLA recommends adding a section just before the references titled Data-Availability Statement. If the paper has an artifact, cite it here. If there is no artifact, this section can explain how to obtain relevant code. The statement does not count toward the OOPSLA 2024 page limit. It may be included in the submitted paper; in fact we encourage this, even if the DOI is not ready yet. Example: \section{Conclusion} .... \section*{Data-Availability Statement} The software that supports~\cref{s:design,s:evaluation} is available on Software Heritage~\cite{artifact-swh} and Zenodo~\cite{artifact-doi}. \begin{acks} .... #### Expert PC Members During the submission, we will ask you to list up to 3 non-conflicted PC members who you think are experts on the topic of this submission, starting with the most expert. This list will not be used as an input during the paper assignment and it will not be visible to the PC. It may be used by the PC Chair and Associate Chairs for advice on external experts if the paper lacks expert reviews. ### Publication PACMPL is a Gold Open Access journal, all papers will be freely available to the public. Authors can voluntarily cover the article processing charge ($400 USD), but payment is not required. The official publication date is the date the journal is made available in the ACM Digital Library. The journal issue and associated papers may be published up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. By submitting your article to an ACM Publication, you are acknowledging that you and your co-authors are subject to all [ACM Publications Policies](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/policies__;!!IBzWLUs!Skl6kL1a00YzY2eLBO_wyjIe_fI9UZJosSG2pnE6kgAvn8rKD0cYei5vmkKwv_n6yU_CyTlBXHOkzVknJYUYFBHltrTeakQ$ ), including ACM?s [new Publications Policy on Research Involving Human Participants and Subjects](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/research-involving-human-participants-and-subjects__;!!IBzWLUs!Skl6kL1a00YzY2eLBO_wyjIe_fI9UZJosSG2pnE6kgAvn8rKD0cYei5vmkKwv_n6yU_CyTlBXHOkzVknJYUYFBHl_8-A7Y4$ ). Alleged violations of this policy or an ACM Publications Policy will be investigated by ACM and may result in a full retraction of your paper, in addition to other potential penalties, as per ACM Publications Policy.

Paris Cit?, France (PPDP) Daniel Kaestner, AbsInt, Germany (SAS) Gagandeep Singh, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, USA (SAS) Bor-Yuh Evan Chang, University of Colorado Boulder & Amazon, USA (SAS) Loris D?Antoni, University of Wisconsin, Madison, USA (SAS) ====================================================================== # List of Events ====================================================================== ** OOPSLA Research Papers ** Papers that address any aspect of software development are welcome, including requirements, modelling, prototyping, design, implementation, generation, analysis, verification, testing, evaluation, maintenance, reuse, replacement, and retirement of software systems. Papers may address these topics in a variety of ways, including new tools (such as languages, program analyses, and runtime systems), new techniques (such as methodologies, design processes, code organization approaches, and management techniques), and new evaluations (such as formalisms and proofs, corpora analyses, user studies, and surveys). ** Onward! Research Papers ** Onward! is a premier multidisciplinary conference focused on everything to do with programming and software: including processes, methods, languages, communities, and applications. Onward! is more radical, more visionary, and more open than other conferences to ideas that are well-argued but not yet proven. We welcome different ways of thinking about, approaching, and reporting on programming language and software engineering research. ** Onward! Essays ** Onward! Essays conference is looking for clear and compelling pieces of writing about topics important to the software community construed broadly. An essay can be an exploration of a topic, its impact, or the circumstances of its creation; it can present a personal view of what is, explore a terrain, or lead the reader in an act of discovery; it can be a philosophical digression or a deep analysis. It can describe a personal journey, perhaps that by which the author reached an understanding of such a topic. The subject area should be interpreted broadly and can include the relationship of software to human endeavours, or its philosophical, sociological, psychological, historical, or anthropological underpinnings. ** PLMW at SPLASH ** The SPLASH 2023 Programming Languages Mentoring Workshop encourages graduate students (PhD and MSc) and senior undergraduate students to pursue research in programming languages. This workshop will provide mentoring sessions on how to prepare for and thrive in graduate school and in a research career, focusing both on cutting-edge research topics and practical advice. The workshop brings together leading researchers and junior students in an inclusive environment in order to help welcome newcomers to our field of programming languages research. The workshop will show students the many paths that they might take to enter and contribute to our research community. ====================================================================== ** Workshops ** ====================================================================== **** CONFLANG **** CONFLANG is a workshop on the design, the theory, the practice and the future evolution of configuration languages. It aims to gather the emerging community in this area in order to engage in fruitful interactions, to share ideas, results, opinions, and experiences on languages for configuration. Correct configuration is an actual industrial problem, and would greatly benefit from existing and ongoing academic research. Dually, this is a space with new challenges to overcome and new directions to explore, which is a great opportunity to confront new ideas with large-scale production. **** FTSCS **** The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers who are interested in the application of formal and semi-formal methods to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems. FTSCS strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in industrial applications of formal methods. **** HATRA **** Programming language designers seek to provide strong tools to help developers reason about their programs. For example, the formal methods community seeks to enable developers to prove correctness properties of their code, and type system designers seek to exclude classes of undesirable behavior from programs. The security community creates tools to help developers achieve their security goals. In order to make these approaches as effective as possible for developers, recent work has integrated approaches from human-computer interaction research into programming language design. This workshop brings together programming languages, software engineering, security, and human-computer interaction researchers to investigate methods for making languages that provide stronger safety properties more effective for programmers and software engineers. **** IWACO **** Many techniques have been introduced to describe and reason about stateful programs, and to restrict, analyze, and prevent aliases. These include various forms of ownership types, capabilities, separation logic, linear logic, uniqueness, sharing control, escape analysis, argument independence, read-only references, linear references, effect systems, and access control mechanisms. These tools have found their way into type systems, compilers and interpreters, runtime systems and bug-finding tools. Their immediate practical relevance is self-evident from the popularity of Rust, a programming language built around reasoning about aliasing and ownership to enable static memory management and data race freedom, voted the "most beloved" language in the annual Stack Overflow Developer Survey seven times in a row. **** LIVE **** Programming is cognitively demanding, and too difficult. LIVE is a workshop exploring new user interfaces that improve the immediacy, usability, and learnability of programming. Whereas PL research traditionally focuses on programs, LIVE focuses more on the activity of programming. Our goal is to provide a supportive venue where early-stage work receives constructive criticism. Whether graduate students or tenured faculty, researchers need a forum to discuss new ideas and get helpful feedback from their peers. Towards that end, we will allot about ten minutes for discussion after every presentation. **** PAINT **** Programming environments that integrate tools, notations, and abstractions into a holistic user experience can provide programmers with better support for what they want to achieve. These programming environments can create an engaging place to do new forms of informational work - resulting in enjoyable, creative, and productive experiences with programming. In the workshop on Programming Abstractions and Interactive Notations, Tools, and Environments (PAINT), we want to discuss programming environments that support users in working with and creating notations and abstractions that matter to them. We are interested in the relationship between people centric notations and general-purpose programming languages and environments. How do we reflect the various experiences, needs, and priorities of the many people involved in programming ? whether they call it that or not? **** PLF **** Applications supporting multi-device are ubiquitous. While most of the distributed applications that we see nowadays are cloud-based, avoiding the cloud can lead to privacy and performance benefits for users and operational and cost benefits for companies and developers. Following this idea, Local-First Software runs and stores its data locally while still allowing collaboration, thus retaining the benefits of existing collaborative applications without depending on the cloud. Many specific solutions already exist: operational transformation, client-side databases with eventually consistent replication based on CRDTs, and even synchronization as a service provided by commercial offerings, and a vast selection of UI design libraries. However, these solutions are not integrated with the programming languages that applications are developed in. Language based solutions related to distribution such as type systems describing protocols, reliable actor runtimes, data processing, machine learning, etc., are designed and optimized for the cloud not for a loosely connected set of cooperating devices. This workshop aims at bringing the issue to the attention of the PL community, and accelerating the development of suitable solutions for this area. **** REBELS **** Reactive programming and event-based programming are two closely related programming styles that are becoming ever more important with the advent of advanced HPC technology and the ever increasing requirement for our applications to run on the web or on collaborating mobile devices. A number of publications on middleware and language design ? so-called reactive and event-based languages and systems (REBLS) ? have already seen the light, but the field still raises several questions. For example, the interaction with mainstream language concepts is poorly understood, implementation technology is in its infancy and modularity mechanisms are almost totally lacking. Moreover, large applications are still to be developed and patterns and tools for developing reactive applications is an area that is vastly unexplored. This workshop will gather researchers in reactive and event-based languages and systems. The goal of the workshop is to exchange new technical research results and to define better the field by coming up with taxonomies and overviews of the existing work. **** ST30 **** Session types are a type-theoretic approach to specifying communication protocols so that they can be verified by type-checking. This year marks 30 years since the first paper on session types, by Kohei Honda at CONCUR 1993. Since then the topic has attracted increasing interest, and a substantial community and literature have developed. Google Scholar lists almost 400 articles with "session types" in the title, and most programming language conferences now include several papers on session types each year. In terms of the technical focus, there have been continuing theoretical developments (notably the generalisation from two-party to multi-party session types by Honda, Yoshida and Carbone in 2008, and the development of a Curry-Howard correspondence with linear logic by Caires and Pfenning in 2010) and a variety of implementations of session types as programming language extensions or libraries, covering (among others) Haskell, OCaml, Java, Scala, Rust, Python, C#, Go. ST30 is a workshop to celebrate the 30th anniversary of session types by bringing together the community for a day of talks and technical discussion. **** VMIL **** The concept of Virtual Machines is pervasive in the design and implementation of programming systems. Virtual Machines and the languages they implement are crucial in the specification, implementation and/or user-facing deployment of most programming technologies. The VMIL workshop is a forum for researchers and cutting-edge practitioners in language virtual machines, the intermediate languages they use, and related issues. The workshop is intended to be welcoming to a wide range of topics and perspectives, covering all areas relevant to the workshop?s theme. ====================================================================== ** SPLASH Posters ** ====================================================================== The SPLASH Posters track provides an excellent forum for authors to present their recent or ongoing projects in an interactive setting, and receive feedback from the community. SPLASH posters cover any aspect of programming, systems, languages and applications. The goal of the poster session is to encourage and facilitate small groups of individuals interested in a technical area to gather and interact. It is held early in the conference, to promote continued discussion among interested parties. ====================================================================== ** Doctoral Symposium ** ====================================================================== The SPLASH Doctoral Symposium provides students with useful guidance for completing their dissertation research and beginning their research careers. The symposium will provide an interactive forum fordoctoral students who have progressed far enough in their research to have a structured proposal, but will not be defending their dissertation in the next 12 months. ====================================================================== ** Student Research Competition ** ====================================================================== The ACM Student Research Competition (SRC), sponsored by Microsoft Research, offers a unique opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to present their research to a panel of judges and conference attendees at SPLASH. The SRC provides visibility and exposes up-and-coming researchers to computer science research and the research community. This competition also gives students an opportunity to discuss their research with experts in their field, get feedback, and sharpen their communication and networking skills. ====================================================================== ** SPLASH-E ** ====================================================================== SPLASH-E is a forum for educators to make connections between programming languages research and the ways we educate computer science students. We invite work that could improve or inform computer science educators, especially work that connects with introductory computer science courses, programming languages, compilers, software engineering, and other SPLASH-related topics. Educational tools, experience reports, and new curricula are all welcome. ====================================================================== *** Co-Located Events *** ====================================================================== **** Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) **** The Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) is the premier forum for researchers and practitioners to share research and experience on all aspects of dynamic languages. After two decades of dynamic language research and DLS, it is time to reflect and look forward to what the next two decades will bring. This year's DLS will therefore be a special DLS focusing on the Future of Dynamic Languages. To do the notion of "symposium" justice, we will actively invite speakers to present their opinions on where Dynamic Languages might be, will be, or should be going in the next twenty years. **** Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences (GPCE)**** ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences (GPCE) is a venue for researchers and practitioners interested in techniques that use program generation, domain-specific languages, and component deployment to increase programmer productivity, improve software quality, and shorten the time-to-market of software products. In addition to exploring cutting-edge techniques of generative software, our goal is to foster further cross-fertilization between the software engineering and the programming languages research communities. **** Logic-based Program Synthesis and Transformation (LOPSTR)**** The aim of the LOPSTR series is to stimulate and promote international research and collaboration on logic-based program development. LOPSTR is open to contributions in logic-based program development in any language paradigm. LOPSTR has a reputation for being a lively, friendly forum for presenting and discussing work in progress. **** Managed Programming Languages & Runtimes (MPLR)**** The 20th International Conference on Managed Programming Languages & Runtimes (MPLR'23, formerly ManLang, originally PPPJ) is a premier forum for presenting and discussing novel results in all aspects of managed programming languages and runtime systems, which serve as building blocks for some of the most important computing systems around, ranging from small-scale (embedded and real-time systems) to large-scale (cloud-computing and big-data platforms) and anything in between (mobile, IoT, and wearable applications). **** Principles and Practice of Declarative Programming (PPDP) **** PPDP aims to provide a forum that brings together researchers from the declarative programming communities, including those working in the logic, constraint and functional programming paradigms, but also embracing a variety of other paradigms such as visual programming, executable specification languages, database languages, AI languages and knowledge representation languages used, for example, in the semantic web. The goal is to stimulate research in the use of logical formalisms and methods for specifying, performing, and analysing computations, including mechanisms for mobility, modularity, concurrency, object-orientation, security, and static analysis. Papers related to the use of declarative paradigms and tools in industry and education are especially solicited. **** Static Analysis Symposium (SAS) **** Static Analysis is widely recognized as a fundamental tool for program verification, bug detection, compiler optimization, program understanding, and software maintenance. The series of Static Analysis Symposia has served as the primary venue for the presentation of theoretical, practical, and application advances in the area. ====================================================================== # Organizing Committee SPLASH 2023: ====================================================================== General Chair: Vasco T.

Brief description of the project ?------------- DeKLA (Developing Kleene Logics and their Applications) is an interdisciplinary PRIN 2022 project, involving logic, epistemology and computer science. It aims to further develop the theory of Kleene logics, modal Kleene logics and their applications in philosophy and computer science. In particular, the project will focus on further exploring external (weak) Kleene logics and modal logics based on strong and weak Kleene logics, with a particular emphasis on epistemic Kleene logics. The logical methods developed will help enrich the study of the epistemology of ignorance, fallible knowledge and of fake news, by providing new formal models of analysis. Moreover, DeKLA will considerably enlarge the space of applications of Kleene logics in computer science, by introducing innovative process algebraic methods based on Kleene logics and applying them to concurrent programming and debugging theory. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Memcached is the backbone for fast response times in distributed web-application. The goal is not only to provide an investigation on the server alone, but also take the client-side and the protocol into consideration. The challenge covers a wide range of requirements and is therefore suited for different approaches and verification tools, such as model-checking, static analysis, and deductive techniques. We welcome all kinds of contributions from high-level specifications down to models down code-level analysis. Please announce your participation on the Mailing List: verifythis-ltc at lists.kit.edu We encourage you to actively reach out for collaboration! **Next Event: ** We are pleased to announce that a full session at iFM 2023 will be dedicated to a public discussion of the challenge. In this session, we will give a short overview of the Long-Term Challenge, complemented by lightning talks to stimulate an interactive discussion to foster further activities. Therefore, we invite all interested researchers to join the session - no additional registration is necessary. If you have any questions, feel free to contact the organizers.

PLanQC aims to bring together researchers from the fields of programming languages and quantum information, exposing the programming languages community to the unique challenges of programming quantum computers. It will promote the development of tools to assist in the process of programming quantum computers, as they exist today and as they are likely to exist in the near to distant future. Submissions to PLanQC should take the form of 2-5 page abstracts (single-column, 11pt acmsmall style, not including references), with links to larger preprints when appropriate. Work in progress is welcome. We hope to make PLanQC maximally accessible to the programming languages community. Thus, abstracts should cover cutting edge ideas and results, but not be opaque to new, potential entrants to quantum computing coming from programming languages. Abstracts will be reviewed for quality and relevance to the workshop, and accepted authors will be invited to give talks or poster presentations. We will not be publishing formal proceedings, but the extended abstracts, along with links (where available) to full papers will be posted to the website of the workshop. Workshop topics include (but are not limited to): ? High-level quantum programming languages ? Verification tools for quantum programs ? Novel quantum programming abstractions ? Quantum circuit and program optimizations ? Hardware-aware circuit compilation and routing ? Error handling, mitigation, and correction ? Instruction sets for quantum hardware ? Other techniques from traditional programming languages (e.g., types, compilation/optimization, foreign function interfaces) applied to the domain of quantum computation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important dates: ?

ETAPS, established in 1998, is a confederation of four annual conferences accompanied by satellite workshops. ETAPS 2024 is the twenty-seventh event in the series. -- Why choose ETAPS? -- * ETAPS is one of the world's leading fora for research on software science, with a history of more than 25 years. * The proceedings of ETAPS appear in gold open access, with no article processing charge for the authors specifically. * All constituent conferences provide artifact evaluation. * In addition to the conference, ETAPS also unites the software science community with activities such as a blog on software science, a PhD workshop, and sessions on diversity and inclusion. -- What is new in 2024? -- * New submission categories at ESOP - "Experience reports" and "Fresh perspectives" * Alignment of the artifact evaluation process of the different conferences. -- MAIN CONFERENCES (8-11 April 2024) -- * ESOP: European Symposium on Programming (PC chair: Stephanie Weirich, University of Pennsylvania, USA) * FASE: Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering (PC chairs: Dirk Beyer, LMU Munich, Germany, Ana Cavalcanti, University of York, UK) * FoSSaCS: Foundations of Software Science and Computation Structures (PC chairs: Naoki Kobayashi, The University of Tokyo, Japan James Worrell, University of Oxford, UK) * TACAS: Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems (PC chairs: Bernd Finkbeiner, CISPA, Germany, Laura Kovacs, TU Wien, Austria) -- INVITED SPEAKERS -- * Keynote speakers: Lars Birkedal, Aarhus University Sandrine Blazy, University of Rennes Jerome Leroux, Laboratoire Bordelais de Recherche en Informatique Ruzica Piskac, Yale University * Tutorial speakers: Tamar Sharon, Radboud University David Monniaux, Verimag -- IMPORTANT DATES -- * Paper submission: 12 October 2023, 23:59 AoE * TACAS artifact submission deadline: 9 November 2023 * Rebuttal (ESOP, FoSSaCS, partially TACAS): 5 December - 7 December 2023 * Paper notification: 21 December 2023 * ESOP, FASE, FoSSaCS artifact submission deadline: 4 January 2024 * Artifact notification TACAS: 18 January 2024 * Paper final version: 23 January 2024 * Artifact notification ESOP, FASE, FoSSaCS: 8 February 2024 * Main Conference: 8-11 April 2024 -- SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS -- The four main conferences of ETAPS 2024 solicit contributions of the following types. All page limits are given **excluding the bibliography**. * ESOP: regular research papers of max 25 pp, experience reports of max 15 pp, and fresh perspectives providing new insights on programming languages and systems of max 15 pp. * FASE: regular research papers and empirical evaluation papers of max 18 pp, new ideas and emerging results (NIER) papers of max 8 pp, tool demonstration papers of max 6 pp (+ mandatory appendix of max 6 pp), * FoSSaCS: regular research papers of max 18 pp * TACAS: regular research papers, case study papers, and regular tool papers of max 16 pp, tool demonstration papers of max 6 pp For definitions of the different paper types and specific instructions, where they are present, see the web pages of the individual conferences. All accepted papers will appear in Springer proceedings and have presentations during the conference. A condition of submission is that, if the submission is accepted, one of the authors attends the conference to give the presentation. We plan ETAPS 2024 as an on-site conference. Submitted papers must be in English, presenting original research. They must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. In particular, simultaneous submission of the same contribution to multiple ETAPS conferences is forbidden. Submissions must follow the formatting guidelines of Springer's LNCS (use the llncs.cls class) and be submitted electronically in pdf through the Easychair author interface of the respective conference. Submissions not adhering to the specified format and length may be rejected immediately. ESOP, FASE, and TACAS will use double-blind reviewing (in the case of TACAS, only for regular research papers). Authors are asked to omit their names and institutions; refer to prior work in the third person, just as prior work by others; not to include acknowledgments that might identify them. ESOP and FoSSaCS will use an **author rebuttal phase**. TACAS will use rebuttal for selected submissions (those in the grey zone). Artifact submission and evaluation Regular tool paper and tool demonstration paper submissions to TACAS must be accompanied by an artifact submitted shortly after the paper. The artifact will be evaluated, and the outcome will be considered in the paper's acceptance decision. For research paper and case study paper submissions, pre-paper-acceptance submission of an artifact is optional; if an artifact is submitted at this point, it will be handled as described above. Alternatively, authors of papers of these categories may submit an artifact for evaluation after the paper has been accepted. The outcome of the artifact evaluation will then not change the paper acceptance decision. ESOP, FASE, and FoSSaCS will accept artifact submissions; however, participation in it is voluntary; the artifact submission deadline is after the paper notification deadline. The outcome will not alter the paper acceptance decision. For ESOP, artifacts may be submitted with an accompanying short 5 page experience report (including 1-page bibliography) that will appear in the conference proceedings. For specific instructions regarding artifacts, see the web pages of the individual conferences. -- PUBLICATION -- The proceedings will be published in the Advanced Research in Computing and Software Science (ARCoSS) subline of Springer's LNCS series. The proceedings volumes will appear in gold open access, so the published versions of all papers will be available for everyone to download from the publisher's website freely from the date of online publication, perpetually. The copyright of the papers will remain with the authors. -- AWARDS -- The strongest papers from the four conferences will be nominated for the ETAPS best paper awards of EAPLS, EASST, and EATCS, and the SCP best tool paper award. The ETAPS Test-of-Time Award will be granted, recognizing outstanding papers published at ETAPS more than ten years in the past. The ETAPS Test-of-Time Tool Award acknowledges the importance of reliable and well-maintained research tools and the significant effort that their creation and maintenance entails. The Doctoral Dissertation Award will be granted to promote and recognize an outstanding dissertation in the research areas covered by the four main ETAPS conferences. All nominated papers will be highlighted in the program. -- SATELLITE EVENTS (6-7 April 2024) -- A number of satellite workshops and other events will take place during the weekend before the main conferences. -- CITY AND HOST INSTITUTION -- ETAPS 2024 will take place in Parc Alvisse Hotel 4*, Luxembourg City, Luxembourg. Located in a peaceful and green environment on the outskirts of Luxembourg City, just a 10-minutes drive from the city center and the airport, the Parc Hotel Alvisse opens its doors to you on a vast and refurbished complex for the greatest comfort of its customers. This luxury hotel also has an indoor swimming pool, a bar/lounge, and a fitness center. -- ORGANISERS -- Peter Y.A.

As usual, ICALP will be preceded by a series of workshops, which will take place on July 7. The 2024 edition has the following features: - Submissions are anonymous and there is a rebuttal phase. - The conference is planned as a physical, in-person event. - ICALP 2024 is co-located with Logic in Computer Science (LICS) 2024 and Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD) 2024. ======================================================== Important dates and information ======================================================== Submissions: February 14, 2024 (1pm CET) Rebuttal: March 26-29, 2024 Author notification: April 14, 2024 Camera-ready version: April 28, 2024 Early registration: TBA Conference: July 8-12, 2024 (Workshops on July 7) Deadlines are firm; late submissions will not be considered.

No prior publication and no simultaneous submission to other publication outlets (either a conference or a journal) is allowed. Authors are encouraged to also make full versions of their submissions freely accessible in an on-line repository such as ArXiv, HAL, ECCC. 2) Submissions take the form of an extended abstract of no more than 15 pages, excluding references and a clearly labelled appendix. The appendix may consist either of omitted proofs or of a full version of the submission, and it will be read at the discretion of program committee members. The use of the LIPIcs document class is an option, but not required. The extended abstract has to present the merits of the paper and its main contributions clearly, and describe the key concepts and technical ideas used to obtain the results. Submissions must provide the proofs which can enable the main mathematical claims of the paper to be verified. 3) Submissions are anonymous. The conference will employ a lightweight double-blind reviewing process. Submissions should not reveal the identity of the authors in any way. Authors should ensure that any references to their own related work are in the third person (e.g., not ?We build on our previous work ?? but rather ?We build on the work of ??). The purpose of this double-blind process is to help PC members and external reviewers come to an initial judgment about the paper without bias, and not to make it impossible for them to discover who the authors are if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the paper more difficult. In particular, important references should not be omitted. In addition, authors should feel free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their paper as they normally would. For example, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web, submit them to arXiv, and give talks on their research ideas. 4) Submissions authored or co-authored by members of the program committee are allowed. 5) The submissions are done via Easychair to the appropriate track of the conference (see topics below). The use of pdflatex or similar pdf generating tools is mandatory and the page limit is strict (see point 2.) Papers that deviate significantly from these requirements risk rejection without consideration of merit. 6) During the rebuttal phase, authors will have from March 26-29, 2024 to view and respond to initial reviews. Further instructions will be sent to authors of submitted papers before that time. 7) At least one author of each accepted paper is expected to register for the conference, and all talks are in-person. In exceptional cases, there may be support for remotely presenting a talk. 8) Papers authored only by students should be marked as such upon submission in order to be eligible for the best student paper awards of the track. ======================================================== Awards ======================================================== During the conference, the following awards will be delivered: ? the EATCS award, ? the G?del prize, ? the Presburger award, ? the EATCS distinguished dissertation award, ? the best papers for Track A and Track B, ? the best student papers for Track A and Track B. ======================================================== Proceedings ======================================================== ICALP proceedings are published in the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) series.

Such formalisms enjoy both sound theoretical bases and the availability of attractive frameworks for application development. Indeed, they have been already successfully applied to many different real-world situations, ranging from database management to active networks to software engineering to decision support systems. New developments in theory and implementation fostered applications in new areas. At the same time, applications of declarative languages to novel and challenging problems raise many interesting research issues, including designing for scalability, language extensions for application deployment, and programming environments. Thus, applications drive the progress in the theory and implementation of declarative systems, and benefit from this progress as well. PADL is a well-established forum for researchers and practitioners to present original work emphasizing novel applications and implementation techniques for all forms of declarative programming, including functional and logic programming, database and constraint programming, and theorem proving. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Innovative applications of declarative languages - Declarative domain-specific languages and applications - Practical applications of theoretical results - New language developments and their impact on applications - Declarative languages and software engineering - Evaluation of implementation techniques on practical applications - Practical experiences and industrial applications - Novel uses of declarative languages in the classroom - Practical extensions such as constraint-based, probabilistic, and reactive languages PADL 2024 especially welcomes new ideas and approaches related to applications, design and implementation of declarative languages going beyond the scope of the past PADL symposia, for example, advanced database languages and contract languages, as well as verification and theorem proving methods that rely on declarative languages. Submissions ----------- PADL 2024 welcomes three kinds of submission: * Technical papers (max. 15 pages): Technical papers must describe original, previously unpublished research results. * Application papers (max. 8 pages): Application papers are a mechanism to present important practical applications of declarative languages that occur in industry or in areas of research other than Computer Science. Application papers are expected to describe complex and/or real-world applications that rely on an innovative use of declarative languages. Application descriptions, engineering solutions and real-world experiences (both positive and negative) are solicited. * Extended abstracts (max. 3 pages): Describing new ideas, a new perspective on already published work, or work-in-progress that is not yet ready for a full publication. Extended abstracts will be posted on the symposium website but will not be published in the formal proceedings. All page limits exclude references. Submissions must be written in English and formatted according to the standard Springer LNCS style, see https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines__;!!IBzWLUs!QoYtuEjpviVEj4QFtyDz1cWhMR1x9JR0RT8vDjfxVB6he77rpR5Q9XMGSByc8utJyl70FKkLzIhfQTiX0_wGwO7VO7DqfPUJ15sweBccPSw$ The review process of PADL 2024 is *double-anonymous*. In your submission, please, omit your names and institutions; refer to your prior work in the third person, just as you refer to prior work by others; do not include acknowledgements that might identify you. Page numbers (and, if possible, line numbers) should appear on the manuscript to help the reviewers in writing their reports. So, for LaTeX, we recommend that authors use: \pagestyle{plain} \usepackage{lineno} \linenumbers The conference proceedings of PADL 2024 will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Work that already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshop proceedings may be submitted but the authors should notify the program chairs where it has previously appeared. Papers should be submitted electronically at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://padl2024.hotcrp.com__;!!IBzWLUs!QoYtuEjpviVEj4QFtyDz1cWhMR1x9JR0RT8vDjfxVB6he77rpR5Q9XMGSByc8utJyl70FKkLzIhfQTiX0_wGwO7VO7DqfPUJ15sw9pfV8gA$ Important Dates --------------- Paper submission: October 5, 2023 (AoE) Notification: November 9, 2023 Symposium: January 15-16, 2024 Distinguished Papers -------------------- The authors of a small number of distinguished papers will be invited to submit a longer version for journal publication after the symposium. For papers related to logic programming, that will be in the journal Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP) https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/theory-and-practice-of-logic-programming__;!!IBzWLUs!QoYtuEjpviVEj4QFtyDz1cWhMR1x9JR0RT8vDjfxVB6he77rpR5Q9XMGSByc8utJyl70FKkLzIhfQTiX0_wGwO7VO7DqfPUJ15swyrInz6s$ , and for papers related to functional programming, in Journal of Functional Programming (JFP) https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/journal-of-functional-programming__;!!IBzWLUs!QoYtuEjpviVEj4QFtyDz1cWhMR1x9JR0RT8vDjfxVB6he77rpR5Q9XMGSByc8utJyl70FKkLzIhfQTiX0_wGwO7VO7DqfPUJ15swNWKVHYU$ . The extended journal submissions should be substantially (roughly 30%) extended: explanations for which there was no space, illuminating examples and proofs, additional definitions and theorems, further experimental results, implementational details and feedback from practical/engineering use, extended discussion of related work, and so on. These submissions will then be subject to the usual peer review process by the journal, although with the aim of a swifter review process by reusing original reviews from PADL.

Rewriting is a natural model of computation and an expressive semantic framework for concurrency, parallelism, communication, and interaction. It can be used for specifying a wide range of systems and languages in various application domains. It also has good properties as a metalogical framework for representing logics. Several successful languages based on rewriting (ASF+SDF, CafeOBJ, ELAN, Maude) have been designed and implemented. The aim of WRLA is to bring together researchers with a common interest in rewriting and its applications, and to give them the opportunity to present their recent work, discuss future research directions, and exchange ideas. TOPICS OF INTEREST The topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to: 1. Foundations - foundations and models of rewriting and rewriting logic, including termination, confluence, coherence, and complexity - unification, generalization, narrowing, and partial evaluation - constrained rewriting and symbolic algebra - graph rewriting - tree automata - rewriting strategies - rewriting-based calculi and explicit substitutions 2. Rewriting as a Logical and Semantic Framework - uses of rewriting and rewriting logic as a logical framework, including deduction modulo - uses of rewriting as a semantic framework for programming language semantics - rewriting semantics of concurrency models, distributed systems, and network protocols - rewriting semantics of real-time, hybrid, and probabilistic systems - uses of rewriting for compilation and language transformation 3. Rewriting Languages - rewriting-based declarative languages - type systems for rewriting - implementation techniques - tools supporting rewriting languages 4. Verification Techniques - verification of confluence, termination, coherence, sufficient completeness, and related properties - temporal, modal, and reachability logics for verifying dynamic properties of rewrite theories - explicit-state and symbolic model checking techniques for verification of rewrite theories - rewriting-based theorem proving, including (co)inductive theorem proving - rewriting-based constraint solving and satisfiability - rewriting-semantics-based verification and analysis of programs 5. Applications - applications in logic, mathematics, physics, and biology - rewriting models of biology, chemistry, and membrane systems - security specification and verification - applications to distributed, network, mobile, and cloud computing - specification and verification of real-time, hybrid, probabilistic, and cyber-physical systems - specification and verification of critical systems - applications to model-based software engineering - applications to engineering and planning. 6. Education - how to design a course in which programming, formal specification, formal verification, etc. with Maude, Elan, CafeOBJ, etc. are taught - examples used in such courses - how to attract students for such courses - any issues related to such courses PUBLICATION All accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and included in the pre-proceedings, which will be available during the workshop. Following the tradition of the last editions, regular, tool, and invited papers will be published as a volume in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series to be distributed after the workshop. PAPER SUBMISSIONS The program of the workshop will include regular papers, tool papers, education papers, and work-in-progress presentations. Regular papers must contain original contributions, be clearly written, include appropriate references, and comparison with related work. Tool papers have to present a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to an existing tool. They should provide a short description of the theoretical foundations with relevant citations, emphasize the design and implementation, and give a clear account of the tool's functionality. The described tools may be made available via the web. Education papers could contain how to design a course in which formal methods, etc. are taught with Maude, Elan, CafeOBJ, etc., what examples are used in education courses, etc. Work-in-progress papers present early-stage work or other types of innovative or thought-provoking work related to the topics of the workshop. The difference between work-in-progress and regular papers is that work-in-progress submissions represent work that has not reached yet a level of completion that would warrant the full refereed selection process. All submissions should be formatted according to the guidelines for Springer LNCS papers, and should not exceed 15 pages (for regular papers), 10 pages (for tool and education papers), and 8 pages (for work-in-progress presentations) including references. Submissions must be uploaded to the following EasyChair website: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wrla2024__;!!IBzWLUs!TFFU3TxKxEnKHng3VJlH9xmRQ01UnW2WgnUfNCy5wrzUkf09Hfsc4g9-4Xrko-SP03vYD7cSuLcAcdkBgX_HDD0JWyWu5nNI_wo$ .

Papers submitted in the Research Papers category may use any formatting and have no fixed page limit. NEW! ESOP 2024 will incorporate a new streamlined "journal-after" publication model, leading to publication in the journal TOPLAS. NEW! Accepted artifacts may include a five page description that will appear in the ESOP 2024 proceedings. NEW! In addition to Research Papers, ESOP 2024 solicits two new forms of contributions: Experience Reports and Fresh Perspectives Important Dates AoE (UTC-12) - Paper submission: October 12, 2023 - Rebuttal: Tuesday 5 December - Thursday 7 December, 2023 - Paper notification: December 21, 2023 - Artifact submission: January 4, 2024 - Paper final version: January 23, 2024 - Artifact notification: February 8, 2024 Scope ESOP is an annual conference devoted to fundamental issues in the specification, design, analysis, and implementation of programming languages and systems. ESOP seeks contributions on all aspects of programming language research including, but not limited to, the following areas: programming paradigms and styles, methods and tools to specify and reason about programs and languages, programming language foundations, methods and tools for implementation, concurrency and distribution, applications and emerging topics. Contributions bridging the gap between theory and practice are particularly welcome. Submission Categories Research Papers are articles that advance the state-of-the-art on the theory and practice of programming languages and systems. For the sake of flexibility, submitted research papers may be formatted in Springer?s LNCS, ACM's PACMPL, or ACM's TOPLAS format. There is no page limit for submissions, but authors should be aware that reviewers are likely to balance the review time for all papers and that camera-ready papers may not exceed 25 pages (excluding bibliography) and must be formatted in Springer?s LNCS. Experience Reports are articles reporting on systems and techniques developed in practice, such as artifacts, tools, mechanized proofs, and educational systems, both in academic and industrial settings. These articles must include a critical evaluation of the experience reported. Submitted and camera-ready experience report papers must be formatted in Springer?s LNCS, not exceeding 15 pages (excluding bibliography). Fresh Perspectives are articles that promote new insights on programming languages and systems in a particularly elegant way. These papers may offer new tutorial perspectives of known concepts or they may introduce fresh new insights and ideas that could lead to relevant future developments. Submitted and camera-ready fresh perspective papers must be formatted in Springer?s LNCS, not exceeding 15 pages (excluding bibliography).

In case you're still a PhD student, please also indicate the presumed date of the PhD defense. Brief description of the project ?------------- DeKLA (Developing Kleene Logics and their Applications) is an interdisciplinary PRIN 2022 project, involving logic, epistemology and computer science. It aims to further develop the theory of Kleene logics, modal Kleene logics and their applications in philosophy and computer science. In particular, the project will focus on further exploring external (weak) Kleene logics and modal logics based on strong and weak Kleene logics, with a particular emphasis on epistemic Kleene logics. The logical methods developed will help enrich the study of the epistemology of ignorance, fallible knowledge and of fake news, by providing new formal models of analysis. Moreover, DeKLA will considerably enlarge the space of applications of Kleene logics in computer science, by introducing innovative process algebraic methods based on Kleene logics and applying them to concurrent programming and debugging theory. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The topic of the conference is broad but it could be well-suited for some of the challenges encountered in our domain. ?Guillaume SECOND CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS ? please disseminate widely to your colleagues and networks (apologies for cross-posting) 1st conference on *Undone Science in Computer Science* ? A conference to reflect on epistemological and ethical dimensions of computer science ? * Deadline extended: *October 24th* (AoE) ? * Nantes, France, 5-6 February 2024 (hybrid) ? * Calling for talk proposals (1 to 2 pages abstracts) ? * Post-proceedings model: we will send a call for full papers after ??? the conference ? * Conference website: ? * Submission website: PRESENTATION As researchers in computer science, we are committed to advancing the field in a way that is both epistemologically and ethically sound. The *Undone Computer Science conference* provides an informal venue to pause and reflect on these aspects. Our goal is to bring together computer scientists from across the field, but also philosophers of science, social scientists, etc., interested in discussing the ethical and epistemological dimensions of our work. We welcome abstracts exploring these dimensions, and encourage submissions from a wide range of perspectives. *Abstracts should be 1 to 2 pages*, clearly outlining the main arguments and contributions of the proposed talk. As a guiding question, we propose to apply the concept of Undone Science [1] to computer science. *Undone science* refers to questions that are left unaddressed, ignored, or underfunded for various reasons, yet demonstrably worthy of exploration. It highlights the idea that the production and dissemination of knowledge are variously influenced, leading to biases in the choice of research that is done, and eventually in a ?systematic non-production of knowledge? [2]. Critical voices have recently highlighted corporate influences in AI ethics [3], reminding us of some of the society-impacting case studies which originally motivated the analytical concept of undone science. But undone science could also refer to the consequences of ?theoretical commitments? [2], e.g. dominant paradigms, when they blind us collectively about what is worthy or not of exploration?all the while accounts of paradigm shifts in our young domain remain rare. Undone science has also been referring to questions first recognised by actors from civil society?for computer scientists, the free software movement and civil liberties organisations come to mind. We believe that *the concept of undone science can further help bring out* the epistemological and ethical aspects of research in computer science. Undone Computer Science is an informal conference with post-proceedings: depending upon the eventual number and quality of submissions, we intend to follow up the conference with a call for full papers to be published in a journal. (It is not necessary to submit a full paper to present at the conference; nor is it necessary to present at the conference to answer the call for full papers.) POTENTIAL TOPICS It is unnecessary to be familiar with the concept of undone science in order to contribute. *Potential topics include*, but are not limited to: ? * Areas of research meeting challenges that will require or have ??? required *shifts in viewpoint*; conditions responsible for ??? *certain kinds of research being over- or under-represented*; ??? reasons for a set of *questions being neglected* in an area. ? * Epistemological questions and challenges arising from the ??? *interdisciplinary nature* of computer science, or dealing with ??? the articulations between theory and practice. ? * How *social movements or civil society organisations* (e.g. free ??? software movement and probably others) play a role in identifying ??? areas of research being left aside, in providing new research ??? questions, or on the contrary in demanding that some kind of ??? research remains undone. ? * Challenges of integrating ethical questioning regarding ??? *social, economic, and environmental consequences* of our work into ??? the process of making good science. Concrete examples of questions ??? stemming from ethical consideration being introduced to a domain ??? (why/how), are welcome. ? * How *ethics codes* (for instance the ACM Code of Ethics) can be ??? leveraged (or fail) to present some questions as being worthy of ??? exploration. How can (or cannot) guiding principles be put in ??? place to enrich the research practices in an area, or to help ??? professionals of computing in industry and academia? ? * Explorations of the *influence of publishing practices* within our ??? community, and of popular research methodology and scientific ??? writing guides provided within our fields, on the selection, ??? execution, and dissemination of research. ? * Examinations of biases and limitations present in commonly-used ??? *educational curricula* (for instance leading to or stemming from ??? a lack of diversity, be it social or methodological); ? * More generally, any discussion of systematic non-production and ??? non-dissemination of knowledge, whether in a specific area or in ??? computer science in general; whether due to *limitations of ??? available methodologies, blind spots of dominant paradigms, ??? institutional and industrial biases, lack of social ??? representation*, or other factors. We look forward to receiving your abstracts, and to an engaging and thought-provoking conference. Sincerely, The Organisers KEY DATES ? * *Submission deadline*: 24th October 2023 (anywhere on Earth) ? * *Author notification*: 4th December 2023 ? * *Conference*: 5th-6th February 2024 in Nantes SUBMITTING ? * Instructions: ???? 1. Abstracts should be 1 to 2 pages in length (excluding ??????? bibliography) and should succinctly present the key arguments, ??????? references and contributions of the proposed talk. The submission ??????? can contain appendices or a link to a longer version, but the ??????? point of the submission should be clear from the first two ??????? pages (reviewers are not obligated to read any further). ???? 2. Submissions should be uploaded to EasyChair: ??????? https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=undonecs2024__;!!IBzWLUs!XxUO9sUrMEGITLkYskb5ApXZ8Esf2aaWP7sVghtvDzApoKckLyh8N7scMydrhfkM1aeg4uuSUqpRbCjiR6BNW-lKC1-P4KkwJZ4nvIMmh_4$ in PDF ??????? format. ???? 3. The conference being aimed at a wide range of research ??????? domains, authors are welcome to include a brief biography (up ??????? to 5 lines). The review process is single-blind (reviewers are ??????? anonymous, but authors are not). ???? 4. For a paper accepted at the conference, at least one author is ??????? generally expected to present in person, but we will work to ??????? make remote presentations possible. (Please do inquire early ??????? with the organisers.) ? * Acceptance criteria: ???? 1. *Computer Science*: we seek contributions pertaining to ??????? computer science (in a broad sense), ???? 2. *Author expertise*: we expect authors to contribute in ??????? accordance with their domains of expertise, in a broad sense; ??????? for instance a contribution on ethical issues by a computer ??????? scientist can be rooted in their research practice, a ??????? contribution by a social scientist can be rooted in the study ??????? of an example or through field work. (This includes ??????? submissions by graduate students.) ???? 3. *Undone science*: we expect that the question of undone ??????? science will inspire presentations that lead to meaningful ??????? reflections on ethical or epistemological aspects of computer ??????? science. For instance, a submission could outline a potential ??????? ethical question derived from a detailed examination of ??????? real-world practices without delving into the ethical aspects ??????? in detail. (Feel free to inquire with the organisers about ??????? a potential topic.) ???? 4. Unfinished or exploratory contributions, that would benefit ??????? from discussion at the conference prior to their development ??????? into full papers, are most welcome. ???? 5. Members of the programme committee are allowed to submit talk ??????? proposals. ? * We will endeavour to always give considerate and constructive ??? feedback about proposed abstracts. ? * Accepted abstracts will be made available online in the programme ??? of the conference. REGISTRATION & ATTENDING ? * There are no fees for registration, but /registration is mandatory/ ??? to attend. Registration will open later in the year. ? * The venue has good accessibility and we strive to make our ??? conference accessible; more information will be provided on the ??? website of the conference. Feel free to inquire with the ??? organisers. ? * A very limited number of travel grants might be offered for ??? speakers who require it.

Introduction ============ Under the auspices of the Association for Logic, Language, and Information (FoLLI), the European Summer School in Logic, Language, and Information ( ESSLLI ) runs every year. Except for 2021, when the school was virtual, it runs in a different European country each year. It takes place over two weeks in the summer, hosts approximately 50 different courses at levels that run from foundational to introductory to advanced, and attracts around 400 participants from all over the world. Since 1989, ESSLLI has been providing outstanding interdisciplinary educational opportunities in the fields of Computer Science, Cognitive Science, Linguistics, Logic, Philosophy, and beyond. It comes from a community which recognizes that advances in our common areas require the contributions of multiple interrelated disciplines. The main focus of ESSLLI is the interface between linguistics, logic and computation, with special emphasis on human linguistic and cognitive ability. Courses, both introductory and advanced, cover a wide variety of topics within the combined areas of interest: Logic and Computation, Computation and Language, and Language and Logic. Workshops are also organized, providing opportunities for in-depth discussion of issues at the forefront of research, as well as a series of invited evening lectures. Topics and Format ================= Proposals for courses and workshops at ESSLLI 2024 are invited in all areas of Logic, Linguistics and Computer Science. Cross-disciplinary and innovative topics are particularly encouraged. Each course and workshop will consist of five 90 minute sessions, offered daily (Monday-Friday) in a single week. Proposals for two-week courses should be structured and submitted as two independent one-week courses, e.g. as an introductory course followed by an advanced one. In such cases, the ESSLLI Program Committee reserves the right to accept just one of the two proposals. All instructional and organizational work at ESSLLI is performed completely on a voluntary basis, so as to keep participation fees to a minimum. However, organizers and instructors have their registration fees waived, and are reimbursed for travel and accommodation expenses up to a level to be determined and communicated with the proposal notification. ESSLLI can only guarantee reimbursement for at most one course/workshop organizer, and cannot guarantee full reimbursement of travel costs for lecturers or organizers from outside of Europe. The ESSLLI organizers would appreciate any help in controlling the School's expenses by seeking partial or complete coverage of travel and accommodation expenses from other sources. Categories ========== Each proposal should fall under one of the following categories. Foundational Courses -------------------- Such courses are designed to present the basics of a research area, to people with no prior knowledge in that area. They should be of elementary level, without prerequisites in the course's topic, though possibly assuming a level of general scientific maturity in the relevant discipline. They should enable researchers from related disciplines to develop a level of comfort with the fundamental concepts and techniques of the course's topic, thereby contributing to the interdisciplinary nature of our research community. Introductory Courses -------------------- Introductory courses are central to ESSLLI 's mission. They are intended to introduce a research field to students, young researchers, and other non-specialists, and to foster a sound understanding of its basic methods and techniques. Such courses should enable researchers from,related disciplines to develop some comfort and competence in the topic considered. Introductory courses in a cross-disciplinary area may presuppose general knowledge of the related disciplines. Advanced Courses ---------------- Advanced courses are targeted primarily to graduate students who wish to acquire a level of comfort and understanding in the current research of a field. Workshops --------- Workshops focus on specialized topics, usually of current interest. Workshop organizers are responsible for soliciting papers and selecting the workshop program. They are also responsible for publishing proceedings if they decide to have proceedings. Proposal Guidelines =================== Course and workshop proposals should closely follow these guidelines to ensure full consideration. Course and Workshop proposals can be submitted by no more than two lecturers/organizers and can be presented by no more than these two lecturers/organizers. All instructors and organizers must possess a PhD or equivalent degree by the submission deadline. Course proposals should mention explicitly the intended course category. Proposals for introductory courses should indicate the intended level, for example as it relates to standard textbooks and monographs in the area. Proposals for advanced courses should specify the prerequisites in detail. Proposals of Courses given at ESSLLI in the previous year will have a lower priority of being accepted in the current year. Proposals must be in PDF format and include all the following information: 1. Personal information for each proposer: Name, affiliation, contact address, email, homepage (optional) 2. General proposal information: Title, category 3. Contents information: a. Abstract of up to 150 words b. Motivation and description (up to two pages) c. Tentative outline d. Expected level and prerequisites e. Appropriate references (e.g. textbooks, monographs, proceedings, surveys) 4. Information required of course proposers: a. Will the course appeal to students outside of the main discipline of the course? b. What experience does the proposer have in presenting an intensive one-week interdisciplinary setting? c. What evidence is there that the course proposer is an excellent lecturer? 5. Information required of workshop organizers: a. Information on relevant preceding meetings and events, if applicable b. Information about potential external funding for participants. Submission Information ====================== Workshops --------------- By 1 December 2023, proposers are asked to submit (via EasyChair) at least the name(s) of the instructor(s), the ESSLLI area+course level and a title and short abstract for the proposed workshop. By 15 December 2023, proposers must complete their submission by uploading a PDF with the actual proposal as detailed above. Courses ----------- By 15 December 2023, proposers are asked to submit (via EasyChair) at least the name(s) of the instructor(s), the ESSLLI area+course level and a title and short abstract for the proposed course. By 12 January 2024 , course proposers must complete their submission by uploading a PDF with the actual proposal as detailed above.

It is a collaboration between Aarhus University, the Alexandra Institute and Concordium ApS. The aim of the project is work towards secure implementations of Blockchain Voting Governance Protocols and Internet Voting Protocols. Voting and blockchains are intimately connected. Voting is used in blockchains for consensus, governance, and decentralized organizations. Conversely, elections are based on trust, which means that election systems ideally should be based on algorithms and data structures that are already trusted. Blockchains provide such a technology. They provide a trusted bulletin board, which can be used as part of some voting protocols. Moreover, voting crucially depends on establishing the identity of the voter to avoid fraud and to establish eligibility verifiability. Decades of research in voting protocols have shown how difficult it is to combine the privacy of the vote with the auditability of the election outcome. It is easy to achieve one without the other, but hard to combine both into one protocol. Thus, the topic of this research proposal is to investigate voting protocols and their relation to blockchains. The team will work on (machine-checked) security proofs of these protocols and their implementations, for instance using tools such as ConCert and SSProve which are built on the Coq proof assistant.

The workshop will be held on January 20, 2024, in London, United Kingdom, co-located with POPL. The goal of this workshop is to bring together the implementors of a variety of languages with advanced type systems. The main focus is on the practical issues that come up in the implementation of these systems, rather than the theoretical frameworks that underlie them. In particular, we want to encourage exchanging ideas between the communities around specific systems that would otherwise be accessible to only a very select group. The workshop will have a mix of invited and contributed talks, organized discussion times, and informal collaboration time. *Scope* We invite participants to share their experiences, study differences among the implementations, and generalize lessons from those. We also want to promote the creation of a shared vocabulary and set of best practices for implementing type systems. Here are a few examples of topics we are interested to discuss: * syntax with binders and substitution * conversion modulo beta and eta * implicit arguments and metavariables * unification and constraint solving * metaprogramming and tactic languages * editor integration and automation * discoverability of language features * pretty printing and error messages This list is not exhaustive, so please contact the PC chairs in case you are unsure if a topic falls within the scope of the workshop. *Submissions* WITS solicits two kinds of submissions: * Contributed talks on the basis of an abstract. This can be on recently published or submitted work, work in progress, or a project that is still in the idea phase. * Proposals for roundtable discussions. This can be on any topic within the scope of the workshop, but should have a broader scope than a contributed talk. If accepted, you will be in charge of leading a discussion of 45 minutes around the proposed topic together with other interested attendees. Both kinds of proposals should be accompanied by an abstract of max. 1 page (exclusive of references), formatted according to the guidelines for SIGPLAN conferences: use the `sigplan` option to the `acmart` LaTeX document class. WITS will have no published proceedings, so submitting to WITS does not interfere with submission (before, after, or simultaneously) with other venues.

They are often embodied in robotic systems that can interact with the real world, and they make independent decisions. Amongst other categories, they can be viewed as safety-critical, cyber-physical, hybrid, and real-time systems. Key challenges for applying formal methods to autonomous systems include: the system?s dynamic deployment environment; verifying the system?s decision making capabilities ? including planning, ethical, and reconfiguration choices; and using formal methods results as evidence given to certification or regulatory organisations. FMAS welcomes submissions that use formal methods to specify, model, or verify autonomous systems; in whole or in part. We are especially interested in work using integrated formal methods, where multiple (formal or non-formal) methods are combined during the software engineering process. Autonomous systems are often embedded in robotic or cyber-physical systems, and they share many features (and verification challenges) with automated systems. FMAS welcomes submissions with applications to: automated systems, semi-autonomous systems, or fully-autonomous systems. Invited Talks We have two invited speakers for FMAS 2023: Alice Miller, from the University of Glasgow, UK Erika ?brah?m, from RWTH Aachen, Germany (in a shared talk with iFM) Chairs Matt Luckcuck matt.luckcuck at nottingham.ac.uk, University of Nottingham, UK Marie Farrell marie.farrell at manchester.ac.uk, University of Manchester, UK Mario Gleirscher mario.gleirscher at uni-bremen.de, University of Bremen, Germany Maike Schwammberger schwammberger at kit.edu, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

IMPORTANT DATES Problems submission deadline: 15 December 2023 Competition: 6 and 7 April 2024 ABOUT THE COMPETITION VerifyThis 2024 will take place as part of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software (ETAPS 2024) on 6 and 7 April 2019. It is the 12th event in the VerifyThis competition series. Information on previous events and participants can be found at https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://verifythis.ethz.ch__;!!IBzWLUs!V791D22bNZMVJoYIX_AUKS8r1HtfgxLh36uwnfsjF9wBpJAT_QDXzWc1XkdUm_83FN1t569K1pk45BnPs1OrZu5Uzt1hW1SUR--r$ The aims of the competition are: - to bring together those interested in formal verification, and to provide an engaging, hands-on, and fun opportunity for discussion. - to evaluate the usability of program verification techniques and tools. The competition will offer a number of challenges presented in natural language. Participants have to formalize the requirements, implement a solution, and formally verify the implementation for adherence to the specification. There are no restrictions on the programming language and verification technology used. Solutions will be judged for correctness, completeness and elegance. CALL FOR PROBLEMS To be able to offer a broad and diverse set of verification challenges, we are collecting submissions of ideas for verification challenges and problems. We welcome both problems of academic interest as well as challenges based on themes that are relevant in industry. The competition proceeds in three rounds. In each round, participants are given 60 - 120 minutes to implement and prove specified properties of a given algorithm and/or data structure. They are free to use any verification tools they choose. Challenges are typically concerned with proving functional properties of the code in question (at least some part of a challenge involves expressing and proving properties specific to the algorithm/data structure in question). It is common for problems to have multiple parts, e.g. to prove some basic properties first, perhaps for a simplified case, and to progress to more-advanced goals. We are looking for problem submissions. If you have recently encountered an interesting challenge in your work where formal techniques could be applied, please don't hesitate to submit it. Typical challenges have clear input-?output specifications and often incorporate one or more of the following: heap allocation, concurrency, arithmetic reasoning. A challenge usually describes a problem using natural language together with some pseudocode, and then provides a list of properties or "verification tasks" of varied levels of difficulty. Contributors are encouraged to look at the Archive of previous problems. An award will be given for any submission used in the competition. To avoid spoiling the competition for others, we ask that you keep the subject of your submission private. However, note that problem authors *are* allowed to participate in the competition! Submissions should be sent by email to alex.summers at ubc.ca and paula.herber at uni-muenster.de. The submission deadline is December 15, 2023. We look forward to receiving your ideas! Submission Criteria: * A brief yet precise problem description, specifically identifying verification sub-?tasks. * A solution to the challenge is strongly encouraged, otherwise please provide a sketch of correctness. * The description document can use any reasonable format, including plain text or PDF.

Short version: PriSC is a fun, welcoming and exciting venue. Share updates, ideas, thoughts or send students for a friendly gathering that may lead to future collaborations and ideas. Submit now! ================================================ Call for Presentations: PriSC 2024 @ POPL 2024 ================================================ Secure compilation is an emerging field that puts together advances in security, programming languages, compilers, verification, systems, and hardware architectures in order to devise more secure compilation chains that eliminate many of today?s security vulnerabilities and that allow sound reasoning about security properties in the source language. For a concrete example, all modern languages provide a notion of structured control flow and an invoked procedure is expected to return to the right place. However, today?s compilation chains (compilers, linkers, loaders, runtime systems, hardware) cannot efficiently enforce this abstraction against linked low-level code, which can call and return to arbitrary instructions or smash the stack, blatantly violating the high-level abstraction. Other problems arise because today?s languages fail to specify security policies, such as data confidentiality, and the compilation chains thus fail to enforce them, especially against powerful side-channel attacks. The emerging secure compilation community aims to address such problems by identifying precise security goals and attacker models, designing more secure languages, devising efficient enforcement and mitigation mechanisms, and developing effective verification techniques for secure compilation chains. The goal of this workshop is to identify interesting research directions and open challenges and to bring together researchers interested in working on building secure compilation chains, on developing proof techniques and verification tools, and on designing software or hardware enforcement mechanisms for secure compilation. 8th Workshop on Principles of Secure Compilation (PriSC 2024) ============================================================= The Workshop on Principles of Secure Compilation (PriSC) is an informal 1-day workshop without any proceedings. The goal is to bring together researchers interested in secure compilation and to identify interesting research directions and open challenges. The 8th edition of PriSC will be held on January 20, 2024 in London, United Kingdom together with the ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages (POPL) 2024. Important Dates =============== * Thu 02 Nov 2023: Submission Deadline * Thu 07 Dec 2023: Acceptance Notification * Sat 20 Jan 2024: Workshop Presentation Proposals and Attending the Workshop ================================================= Anyone interested in presenting at the workshop should submit an extended abstract (up to 2 pages, details below) covering past, ongoing, or future work. Any topic that could be of interest to secure compilation is in scope. Secure compilation should be interpreted very broadly to include any work in security, programming languages, architecture, systems or their combination that can be leveraged to preserve security properties of programs when they are compiled or to eliminate low-level vulnerabilities. Presentations that provide a useful outside view or challenge the community are also welcome. This includes presentations on new attack vectors such as microarchitectural side-channels, whose defenses could benefit from compiler techniques. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Attacker models for secure compiler chains. * Secure compiler properties: fully abstract compilation and similar properties, memory safety, control-flow integrity, preservation of safety, information flow and other (hyper-)properties against adversarial contexts, secure multi-language interoperability. * Secure interaction between different programming languages: foreign function interfaces, gradual types, securely combining different memory management strategies. * Enforcement mechanisms and low-level security primitives: static checking, program verification, typed assembly languages, reference monitoring, program rewriting, software-based isolation/hiding techniques (SFI, crypto-based, randomization-based, OS/hypervisor-based), security-oriented architectural features such as Intel?s SGX, MPX and MPK, capability machines, side-channel defenses, object capabilities. * Experimental evaluation and applications of secure compilers. * Proof methods relevant to compilation: (bi)simulation, logical relations, game semantics, trace semantics, multi-language semantics, embedded interpreters. * Formal verification of secure compilation chains (protection mechanisms, compilers, linkers, loaders), machine-checked proofs, translation validation, property-based testing. Guidelines for Submitting Extended Abstracts ============================================ Extended abstracts should be submitted in PDF format and not exceed 2 pages (references not included). They should be formatted in two-column layout, 10pt font, and be printable on A4 and US Letter sized paper. We recommend using the new acmart LaTeX style in sigplan mode. Submissions are not anonymous and should provide sufficient detail to be assessed by the program committee. Presentation at the workshop does not preclude publication elsewhere. Contact and More Information ============================ You can find more information on the workshop website: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://popl24.sigplan.org/home/prisc-2024__;!!IBzWLUs!Wz9rriSWEDFv2fk1pFoefrd4HeGHU3Tps6viiwESrV8IrNSdn7yo_MRrEBUvAwtj_ZxA4g_lnH0Pn-mMyyG9o-jU20uQsbSe3dyMUx99$ For questions please contact the workshop chairs, Marco Patrignani and Shweta Shinde. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Assessing progress on these complex and interlocking issues requires a global view on the effectiveness of our adaptations and mitigations. To succeed in the coming decades, we need a wealth of new data about our natural environment that we rapidly process into accurate indicators, with sufficient trust in the resulting insights to make decisions that affect the lives of billions of people worldwide. However, programming the computer systems required to effectively ingest, clean, collate, process, explore, archive, and derive policy decisions from the planetary data we are collecting is difficult and leads to artefacts presently not usable by non-CS-experts, not reliable enough for scientific and political decision making, and not widely and openly available to all interested parties. Concurrently, domains where computational techniques are already central (e.g., climate modelling) are facing diminishing returns from current hardware trends and software techniques. PROPL explores how to close the gap between state-of-the-art programming methods being developed in academia and the use of programming in climate analysis, modelling, forecasting, policy, and diplomacy. The aim is to build bridges to the current practices used in the scientific community. The first edition of this workshop will comprise: * invited talks from practitioners in the environmental/climate sciences * contributed talks (selected by the programme committee based on short abstracts) * "working workshop brainstorming" format. We would welcome contributions in the following forms: * *Talk proposal:* Please submit an abstract of a talk aligned with the topics of the workshop.

PLanQC aims to bring together researchers from the fields of programming languages and quantum information, exposing the programming languages community to the unique challenges of programming quantum computers. It will promote the development of tools to assist in the process of programming quantum computers, as they exist today and as they are likely to exist in the near to distant future. Submissions to PLanQC should take the form of 2-5 page abstracts (single-column, 11pt acmsmall style, not including references), with links to larger preprints when appropriate. Work in progress is welcome. We hope to make PLanQC maximally accessible to the programming languages community. Thus, abstracts should cover cutting edge ideas and results, but not be opaque to new, potential entrants to quantum computing coming from programming languages. Abstracts will be reviewed for quality and relevance to the workshop, and accepted authors will be invited to give talks or poster presentations. We will not be publishing formal proceedings, but the extended abstracts, along with links (where available) to full papers will be posted to the website of the workshop. Workshop topics include (but are not limited to): ? High-level quantum programming languages ? Verification tools for quantum programs ? Novel quantum programming abstractions ? Quantum circuit and program optimizations ? Hardware-aware circuit compilation and routing ? Error handling, mitigation, and correction ? Instruction sets for quantum hardware ? Other techniques from traditional programming languages (e.g., types, compilation/optimization, foreign function interfaces) applied to the domain of quantum computation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important dates: ?

It lies within the philosophical position known as inferentialism. As such, P-tS offers an alternative foundation for mathematical logic that places reasoning at the heart of meaning. Non-classical, including substructural, logics are important classes of logics that support more controlled reasoning than classical logic. They have found significant academic and industrial application as the basis for tools for reasoning about program and system correctness, where their ability to support reasoning about the decomposition of structure is crucial in managing complexity and scale, and in AI. The treatment of substructural and other non-classical logics in P-tS, especially those of significance for agency, resource modelling, and theories of information (e.g., relevance/modal/epistemic logics), requires development. P-tS has two primary variants: Dummett-Prawitz validity, closely related to Brouwer-Heyting-Kolmogorov semantics, and base-extension semantics, which can be seen as bridge to model-theoretic semantics. Base-extension semantics will be the primary focus of this project, with the Dummett-Prawitz view also relevant. This studentship (intersecting informatics, mathematics, philosophy) will address giving proof-theoretic semantics to non-classical logics, developing the necessary abstract mathematical meta-theory and exploring the significance of inferentialist semantics, and its mathematical realization, for systems verification. This latter aspect will build directly on connections between the proof-theoretic foundations of logic programming and base-extension semantics recently established at UCL. Connections to simulation modelling and its inferentialist interpretation may be explored. The student will work with Prof. David Pym (Computer Science and Philosophy), Dr. Elaine Pimentel (Computer Science), and Prof. Tim Button (Philosophy), and be based in the Programming Principles, Logic, and Verification group. Candidates should have a Master?s degree in mathematics, philosophy, or computer science and a strong interest in logic. -- Prof. David J.

Online participation will be possible with a reduced registration fees, but at least an author of each abstract will have to register with on-site fees. == About FICS workshop series == The goal is to bring together people from different subfields such as algebra/coalgebra, verification, logic, around the thematic of fixed points. Fixed points play a fundamental role in several areas of computer science. They are used to justify (co)recursive definitions and associated reasoning techniques. The construction and properties of fixed points have been investigated in many different settings such as: design and implementation of programming languages, logics, verification, databases. == Scope == Topics include, but are not restricted to: - fixed points in algebra and coalgebra - fixed points in formal languages and automata - fixed points in game theory - fixed points in programming language semantics - fixed points in proofs - fixed points in the mu-calculus and modal logics - fixed points in process algebras and process calculi - fixed points in functional programming and type theory - fixed points in relation to dataflow and circuits - fixed points in automated theorem proving, interactive theorem proving and logic programming - fixed points in finite model theory, descriptive complexity theory, and databases - fixed points in category theory for logic in computer science == Types of submissions == This year, we welcome two categories of submissions, short abstracts as well as extended abstracts: - Both types of submissions will be handled via Easychair and will be peer-reviewed by the PC. - In order to submit a short or extended abstract to FICS, please visit the following link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fics2024__;!!IBzWLUs!XmQiiTIXC-YFYITUcKWm4IEFkml_QxJh8j2MGVplTWvsUDUubUxzcWIP2lJJeVRejj8nSh62k9K8jf0A4-jN57kGwChvlV-TXJ4qGPo$ - A proceedings volume gathering the extended abstracts will be published by EPTCS shortly after the workshop (see details below). Here are details on each type of submission: - **short abstracts** are abstracts of **3 to 5 pages, references included**, describing the topic of the proposed contributed talk. They may contain (i) new completed results, (ii) work in progress or (iii) already (recently) published or submitted works. The submission can refer to a published paper or a preprint but the description given in the short abstract should be sufficiently detailed for the PC to judge the relevance of the proposed talk to the workshop program. - **extended abstracts** are papers of **6 to 10 pages, references excluded**, describing original results which have not been published nor are currently submitted elsewhere. The results must be presented in sufficient details to constitute a scientific publication. An appendix can provide additional details for the reviewer but will be read at the discretion of the reviewers. A volume of proceedings containing the **extended abstracts** will be published soon after the workshop by EPTCS: the authors of extended abstracts will be asked to submit a revised version few weeks after the event, allowing them to take into account the workshop discussions. Details will be released later. == Program Committee == - Zena Ariola (University of Oregon, USA) - Abhishek De (University of Birmingham, UK) - Zeinab Galal (Universit? degli sutdi di Bologna, Italy) - Guilhem Jaber (Universit? de Nantes, France) - Ekaterina Komendantskaya (Heriot-Watt University, UK) - Denis Kuperberg (CNRS & ENS Lyon, France) - Martin Lange (University of Kassel, Germany) - Christine Paulin-Mohring (Universit?

Meta Topics - Pattern theory / theoretical arguments about patterns - Empirical evaluations of patterns and pattern languages Submission deadline: Feb. 5, 2024 Call for Focus Group Proposals ================================================= Do you have a pattern-related topic with the potential to spark a discussion? Focus Groups at EuroPLoP are an excellent opportunity to collaborate with other passionate pattern writers. They are 1 to 2 hour sessions, usually workshops, but you are welcome to experiment with different formats. Your submission should include a summary of the topic, outcomes you envision, a brief description of how you will organize the session, its time budget, and the required number of participants. Paper Submission Process ======================== The submission runs through three quality gates before the final proceedings will be published. After the first draft is accepted, your paper will be assigned to a shepherd. This is an experienced pattern author, who will provide feedback and suggestions on how to improve your paper. Following several iterations of shepherding, your improved second draft will be reviewed again and accepted or rejected for the conference. On acceptance, your paper will be discussed in the writers? workshop during the conference. Based on the feedback received during the workshops, you must submit a final revised version that will be published. The submission system is available under https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.europlop.net/submission/__;!!IBzWLUs!QFlR_HHufSiUGUiurrY63WxcMegpneH4MaqUcMuB730Ufk8V8rTZrAoKxDplQvESfYJf8XHbAgku6fbF0PioYuba7G8FfVTk0mDNXeg5$ . Paper Submission Format ======================== The final submission for publication must be formatted using the two-column ACM template, but for the drafts and intermediate versions, you can use any format. However, we encourage you to use the ACM format right from the beginning to avoid layout problems in the end. If you don?t intend to publish with ACM, you can choose whatever format you like. We recommend 10 pages as a guideline and especially welcome shorter papers. Longer papers are also possible but bear in mind that the writers? workshop might decide to focus only on a part of your paper. Have a look at the introductory information pack for examples. EuroPLoP values =============== High-quality feedback All submissions will benefit from an iterative shepherding process prior to the conference: an experienced pattern author will give you feedback and suggestions on how to improve your paper. In Writers? Workshops ? the core of the conference ? peers and experts will discuss your paper. You will receive in-depth, constructive feedback and insights to improve your paper further. If you wish, you may complement your paper with alternative media (e.g., short video clips linked from the paper) to get feedback on that format as well. Share and learn Patterns are an effective way to share knowledge about a domain. The interdisciplinary topics of the conference will provide you with new insights and inspiring ideas from other fields. Theory and practice EuroPLoP, with its creative and constructive atmosphere, attracts participants from both industry and academia. You will be part of a unique community of pattern book authors, researchers, and practitioners. ~ o ~ We are looking forward to receiving your contribution!

FormaliSE 2024 submission deadline is in **December 2023** (instead of January as in previous years). This is because ICSE 2024, and hence FormaliSE which is co-located, will take place around a month earlier than usual. ******************************************************************** ******************************************************************** Call for Papers: FormaliSE 2024 International Conference on Formal Methods in Software Engineering April 14-15, in Lisbon, Portugal, co-located with the International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE2024) https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://formalise2024.github.io__;!!IBzWLUs!WwcDi8yU5kqw93iN93an-S5c-vsdbtCUS8XtUkfDv2UIKyONcRuMZMPHnR7v2E0Wp8oZaCoeuE7TgBt1TtEgEnIDOu-X5IE$ ******************************************************************** Overview ************** Historically, formal methods academic research and practical software development have had limited mutual interactions ? except possibly in specialized domains such as safety-critical software. In recent times, the outlook has considerably improved: on the one hand, formal methods research has delivered more flexible techniques and tools that can support various aspects of the software development process ? from user requirements elicitation, to design, implementation, verification and validation, as well as the creation of documentation. On the other hand, software engineering has developed a growing interest in rigorous techniques applied at scale. The FormaliSE conference series promotes work at the intersection of the formal methods and software engineering communities, providing a venue to exchange ideas, experiences, techniques, and results. We believe more collaboration between these two communities can be mutually beneficial by fostering the creation of formal methods that are practically useful and by helping develop higher-quality software. Originally a workshop event, since 2018 FormaliSE has been organized as a conference co-located with ICSE. The 12th edition of FormaliSE will also take place as a co-located conference of ICSE 2024. Topics of Interest ********************** Area of interest (include but are not limited to): * requirements formalization and formal specification; * approaches, methods, and tools for verification and validation; * formal approaches to safety and security related issues; * analysis of performance and other non-functional properties based on formal approaches; * scalability of formal method applications; * integration of formal methods within the software development lifecycle (e.g., change management, continuous integration, regression testing, and deployment); * model-based engineering approaches; * correctness-by-construction approaches for software and systems engineering; * application of formal methods to specific domains (such as, autonomous, cyber-physical, intelligent, and IoT systems); * formal methods for AI-based systems, and AI applied in formal method approaches; * formal methods for certification; * guidelines to use formal methods in practice; * usability of formal methods; Important Dates ********************* ===================== =========== ==== Abstracts due: 1 December 2023 Submissions due: 8 December 2023 Notifications: 12 January 2024 Camera ready copies: 28 January 2024 FormaliSE conference: 14-15 April 2024 ===================== =========== ==== Paper Submission Guidelines ********************************* We accept papers in three categories: * Full research papers describing original research work and results. We encourage authors to include validation of their contributions by means of a case study or experiments. We also welcome research papers focusing on tools and tool development. * Case study papers discussing a significant application that suggests general lessons learned and motivates further research, or empirically validates theoretical results (such as a technique's scalability). * Research ideas papers describing new ideas in preliminary form, in a way that can stimulate interesting discussions at the conference, and suggest future work. All papers submitted to the FormaliSE 2024 conference must be written in English, must be unpublished original work, and must not be under review or submitted elsewhere at the time of submission. Submissions must comply with the FormaliSE's lightweight double-anonymous review process (see below). Full research papers and case study papers can take up to 10 pages including all text, figures, tables and appendices, but excluding references. Research ideas papers can take up to 4 pages, plus up to 1 additional page solely for references. To avoid that authors waste time fitting their papers into the stated limit at the expense of presentation clarity, paper lengths slightly exceeding the stated limit will still be considered, provided that the reviewers find that the presentation is of high quality. All submissions must be in PDF format and must conform to the [ACM Primary Article Template]( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template__;!!IBzWLUs!WwcDi8yU5kqw93iN93an-S5c-vsdbtCUS8XtUkfDv2UIKyONcRuMZMPHnR7v2E0Wp8oZaCoeuE7TgBt1TtEgEnID8EORRL8$ ). In LaTeX, use options `sigconf`, `review`, and `anonymous`: `\documentclass[sigconf,review,anonymous]{acmart}`. These options add line numbers (which helps reviewers refer to specific lines in a submission), and omit author information (as required by the double-anonymous format). To submit a paper to FormaliSE 2024 use the following HotCRP link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://formalise24.hotcrp.com/__;!!IBzWLUs!WwcDi8yU5kqw93iN93an-S5c-vsdbtCUS8XtUkfDv2UIKyONcRuMZMPHnR7v2E0Wp8oZaCoeuE7TgBt1TtEgEnIDC8I1sRc$ Lightweight Double-Anonymous Review Process for Papers ****************************************************************** As in recent editions, FormaliSE 2024 will use a lightweight double-anonymous process. Authors must omit their names and institutions from the title page, cite their own work in the third person, and omit acknowledgments that may reveal their identity or affiliation. The purpose is reducing chances of reviewer bias influenced by the authors? identities. The double-anonymous process is, however, lightweight, which means that it should not pose a heavy burden for authors, nor should make a paper's presentation weaker or more difficult to review. Also, advertising the paper as part of your usual research activities (for example, on your personal web-page, in a pre-print archive, by email, in talks or discussions with colleagues) is permitted without penalties. Paper Selection ******************* Each paper will be reviewed by at least three program committee members that will judge its overall quality in terms of its soundness, significance, novelty, verifiability, and presentation clarity. FormaliSE 2024 will adopt a lightweight response process: if all the reviewers of a given paper agree that a clarification from the authors regarding a specific question could move the paper from "borderline" to "accept", the chairs will relay the reviewers' questions to the authors by email, and then share their reply with the reviewers in HotCRP. The goal of lightweight responses is reducing the chance of random decisions on borderline papers. Hence, they will only be used for a minority of submissions; most papers will not require such an author response. Nevertheless, we would ask the corresponding authors of all submissions to make sure that they are available to answer questions by email upon request. Artifact Evaluation ********************** Reproducibility of experimental results is crucial to foster an atmosphere of trustworthy, open, and reusable research. To improve and reward reproducibility, FormaliSE 2023 continues its Artifact Evaluation (AE) procedure. An artifact is any additional material (software, data sets, machine-checkable proofs, etc.) that substantiates the claims made in the paper and ideally makes them fully reproducible. Submission of an artifact is optional but encouraged for all papers where it can support the results presented in the paper. Artifact review is single-anonymous (the paper corresponding to an artifact must still follow the double-anonymous submissions requirements) and will be conducted concurrently with the paper reviewing process. Artifacts will be handled by a separate Artifact Evaluation Committee, and the Artifact Evaluation process will be set up such that the anonymization of the corresponding papers will not be compromised. Accepted papers with a successfully evaluated artefact will be awarded the EAPLS badges (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://eapls.org/pages/artifact_badges/__;!!IBzWLUs!WwcDi8yU5kqw93iN93an-S5c-vsdbtCUS8XtUkfDv2UIKyONcRuMZMPHnR7v2E0Wp8oZaCoeuE7TgBt1TtEgEnIDRcum1XM$ ) that apply (among "Functional", "Reusable", and "Available"). Awarded badges are to be added to the camera-ready version of the paper. Artifacts will be assessed with respect to their consistency with the results presented in the paper, their completeness, their documentation, and their ease of use. The Artifact Evaluation will include an initial check for technical issues; authors of artifacts may be contacted by email within the first two weeks after artifact submission to help resolve any technical problems that prevent the evaluation of an artifact if necessary. The results of an artifact evaluation will not be available to the reviewers of the corresponding paper; hence, they will not affect the paper's acceptance decision. However, reviewers will know whether a paper has submitted any artifacts; this piece of information may be taken into account to decide whether the paper should be accepted. Thus, if there are justifiable reasons why a paper's artifacts cannot be submitted, they should be pointed out in the paper so that the reviewers can appreciate them and adjust their expectations accordingly. Detailed guidelines for preparation and submission of artifacts will be described in a dedicated page in FormaliSE 2024's website (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://formalise2024.github.io/__;!!IBzWLUs!WwcDi8yU5kqw93iN93an-S5c-vsdbtCUS8XtUkfDv2UIKyONcRuMZMPHnR7v2E0Wp8oZaCoeuE7TgBt1TtEgEnIDmKNUl48$ ). Publication ******************** All accepted papers are published as part of the ICSE 2024 Proceedings in the ACM and IEEE Digital Libraries. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register for the conference and present the paper at the conference ? physically or, if the circumstances do not allow so, virtually. Failure to register an author will result in a paper being removed from the proceedings.

The ?-calculus is certainly one of the main tools for studying this concept: after almost 100 years, why are we still working on this formalism (or related subjects)? And where are we going? What are the scientific or philosophical challenges that ?-calculus has proposed? What are the ones that it may propose in the future? The aim of the workshop is to gather mostly young (possibly non permanent) researchers together in order to address the above mentioned questions.

In addition to accepting applications, I will be very happy to respond to informal enquiries about any aspect of the position, from technical ones to ones about life in a beautiful "alternative" mountain town in western North Carolina. Best wishes, -patricia -------- Applications are invited for a postdoctoral researcher position in the Computer Science Department at Appalachian State University. The position is part of an NSF-funded project on deep induction rules for advanced data types, specifically GADTs and inductive families. The project aims to build on recent work on GADTs to understand the settings in which they have well-defined initial algebra semantics, to give well-defined such semantics for them in such settings, and then to use these semantics to derive deep induction rules and parametricity properties for them. A key goal is to understand what deep induction rules and parametricity for GADTs look like. Another is to understand what deep induction rules for inductive families look like --- and, in particular, how they differ from deep induction rules for corresponding GADTs. The ideal applicant will have a strong background in functional (ideally dependently-typed) programming, type theory, and category theory. However, more expertise in one area, coupled with a commitment to developing the required competencies, may compensate for less expertise in the others. The successful applicant will also be excited about working on fundamental research questions on the themes of categorical semantics of advanced data types, and deep induction rules and parametricity for them. Interests in applications and/or formalizing computer science theory in, e.g., Agda, are also very welcome. The successful hire will work on the funded project with Prof. Patricia Johann at Appalachian State University, her students, and collaborating researchers. The duration of the position is initially one year, with guaranteed continuation by mutual agreement. (Previous postdocs have continued in their positions an average of about two years.) The position will start at a mutually agreeable date, ideally on or around 1 September 2024. Compensation will be competitive and commensurate with experience. Interested persons should first contact Patricia Johann at johannp at appstate.edu, briefly outlining their academic background and research interests, and why they are interested in the position. A complete application will consist of a cover letter and CV, including contact information for three academic references. Complete applications should be made online at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://appstate.peopleadmin.com/postings/43078__;!!IBzWLUs!SRgQRJLhJrqJ-WZuTuBafxCx2hoGkfKPHa8j8yBGKQ9aBOXrwj_NMm4zqij1PaXiGnJv9eZ6E6JLeFTADd-z8zM2gYeBAHoHbA$ Review of applications will begin on 15 January 2024 and will continue until the position is filled.

With kind regards, Alessio Santamaria --- Proposed project title: Categorical semantics of Deep Inference formalisms. Deep Inference is a methodology for designing formal proof systems that generalise Gentzen's formalisms of sequent calculus and natural deduction. In a Deep Inference formalism one is allowed to apply logical rules to connectives that are arbitrarily deep inside a formula, instead of just the main connective, hence the name "deep inference". From this simple concept stem several consequences, here are a few: 1. Proofs can be composed using the same connectives that build up the formulae. 2. Structural rules can be reduced, without loss of information, to an atomic form. 3. We can extract from a proof a graph, called "atomic flow", which discards the connectives and only keeps track of the atoms, from their creation to their destruction. The compositional nature of deep inference proofs makes category theory a natural setting for an algebraic semantics of these proofs. In particular, atomic flows are reminiscent of string diagrams for monoidal categories. Another operation for deep inference proofs that is being currently developed is substitution of proofs into others, as a generalisation of the usual notion of substitution of a formula inside the atom occurrences of another. From the categorical point of view, in very simple cases, this looks like horizontal composition of natural and extranatural transformations. For more details about deep inference, see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://alessio.guglielmi.name/res/cos/__;!!IBzWLUs!UmBnnxaGD1UiK9Pyto-HC6bUZ4yTcfbNodk2KIR0jPHvxGHB6pIRxn0gDu302nC-TbDzBaHQTtd6sNWNYvZ1tTqp59PvHu3FBO7BVjMsQg$ . This project aims to giving a precise, sound and complete categorical semantics to deep inference formalisms of various logics with substitution. The PhD student will need to have a 2:1 degree or equivalent in Computer Science or Mathematics and a strong interest in logic and/or category theory.

The post-doc will take place in Nantes, France. It will be co-supervised by Guilhem Jaber (Nantes Universit? and Inria Gallinette team) and Gabriel Radanne (Inria CASH team, Lyon). It aims to bring together approaches from abstract interpretation, model checking, and game semantics to statically analyze OCaml code. The successful candidate will be employed by Inria and work in the Gallinette team (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://gallinette.inria.fr__;!!IBzWLUs!Xt6ct7q7jYcqvdJxa0TIzp7pOHKZgO040ZKWGrk-iGfcNN6a0xcWrWRAqkTv3cnrsOZSaqd_XzyAdtg1J7IEQ7jMu7Edkq8LAr40eTo$ ), at Nantes University. The position is for one year, and should start in the first semester of 2024 (to be negociated). The salary will depend on the candidate's prior research experience with a guaranteed minimum of ~2200?/month after taxes. The working language can either be English or French. We seek candidates holding a PhD in Computer Science or Mathematics, and with expertise in programming language semantics, ?-calculi, type theory, functional programming, abstract interpretation, compilation, model checking, or program logic. ## Profile The candidate should be familiar with formal approaches in programming language design, notably type systems, semantics, and logic. More concretely, knowledge of the OCaml programming language is expected, and a knowledge of abstract interpretation or model checking would be highly appreciated. This postdoc strongly relies on the fact that practical implementation should have strong theoretical foundations and that further refinements of the theory should get inspiration from the practical side. ## Application process - Applications will be processed starting the 18th of December. Late applications will be considered until the position is filled. - You do not need to have defended your PhD thesis to apply, but you will need to have obtained your PhD to start the contract. - Candidates can send their application to Guilhem Jaber (guilhem dot jaber at inria dot fr) and Gabriel Radanne (gabriel dot radanne at inria do fr) with a subject containing ?[CAVOC post-doc application]?. - The application should contain a CV, two selected publications and two contacts of reference persons (or reference letters if available). ## Context The CAVOC project aims to develop a sound and precise static analyzer for OCaml, that can catch large classes of bugs represented by uncaught exceptions. The analyzer reasons compositionally on programs, in order to analyze them at the granularity of a function or of a module. It takes into account the abstraction properties provided by the type system and the module system of the language: local values, abstracted definitions of types, parametric polymorphism. The main goal is to be sound in a strong way: if an OCaml module is considered to be correct by the analyzer, then one will have the guarantee that no OCaml code interacting with this module can trigger uncaught exceptions coming from the code of this module. To model the behaviour of a module, we rely on game semantics, where programs formed by a module and a client of the module are modelled as calls-and-returns interactions. A module is then represented as a transition system that generates traces representing the interaction with any possible client. This transition system is directly generated from the module's code (implementation and signature), using an operational semantics.

Registration to the workshop will be handled by CSL 2024 (details to come). Online participation will be possible with a reduced registration fees, but at least an author of each abstract will have to register with on-site fees. == About FICS workshop series == The goal is to bring together people from different subfields such as algebra/coalgebra, verification, logic, around the thematic of fixed points. Fixed points play a fundamental role in several areas of computer science. They are used to justify (co)recursive definitions and associated reasoning techniques. The construction and properties of fixed points have been investigated in many different settings such as: design and implementation of programming languages, logics, verification, databases. Topics include, but are not restricted to: - fixed points in algebra and coalgebra - fixed points in formal languages and automata - fixed points in game theory - fixed points in programming language semantics - fixed points in proofs - fixed points in the mu-calculus and modal logics - fixed points in process algebras and process calculi - fixed points in functional programming and type theory - fixed points in relation to dataflow and circuits - fixed points in automated theorem proving, interactive theorem proving and logic programming - fixed points in finite model theory, descriptive complexity theory, and databases - fixed points in category theory for logic in computer science == Types of submissions == This year, we welcome two categories of submissions, short abstracts as well as extended abstracts: - Both types of submissions will be handled via Easychair and will be peer-reviewed by the PC. - In order to submit a short or extended abstract to FICS, please visit the following link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fics2024__;!!IBzWLUs!UHAfNuZQFxTey0WqSwyQnVPkrhl4IH98rqgkjyYLforlgZOnELTWa5ZjEwH2VtHuhfM-KmFHMBkj3yrzRvyliy8QVxIVYNFijEgSecw$ - A proceedings volume gathering the extended abstracts will be published by EPTCS shortly after the workshop (see details below). Here are details on each type of submission: - **short abstracts** are abstracts of **3 to 5 pages, references included**, describing the topic of the proposed contributed talk. They may contain (i) new completed results, (ii) work in progress or (iii) already (recently) published or submitted works. The submission can refer to a published paper or a preprint but the description given in the short abstract should be sufficiently detailed for the PC to judge the relevance of the proposed talk to the workshop program. - **extended abstracts** are papers of **6 to 10 pages, references excluded**, describing original results which have not been published nor are currently submitted elsewhere. The results must be presented in sufficient details to constitute a scientific publication. An appendix can provide additional details for the reviewer but will be read at the discretion of the reviewers. A volume of proceedings containing the **extended abstracts** will be published soon after the workshop by EPTCS: the authors of extended abstracts will be asked to submit a revised version few weeks after the event, allowing them to take into account the workshop discussions. Details will be released later. == Invited speakers - Anupam Das, University of Birmingham - Barbara K?nig, Universit?t Duisburg-Essen (joint CSL & FICS invited speaker) == Program Committee == - Zena Ariola (University of Oregon, USA) - Abhishek De (University of Birmingham, UK) - Zeinab Galal (Universit? degli sutdi di Bologna, Italy) - Guilhem Jaber (Universit? de Nantes, France) - Ekaterina Komendantskaya (Heriot-Watt University, UK) - Denis Kuperberg (CNRS & ENS Lyon, France) - Martin Lange (University of Kassel, Germany) - Christine Paulin-Mohring (Universit?

Yet programming approaches have failed to keep pace. These systems are prone to a range of subtle and difficult-to-debug errors, e.g. communication mismatches, deadlocks, and livelocks. Session Types aim to address these issues via high-level formal specifications of communications protocols. An advantage of this approach is that session types enable static guarantees of desirable behavioural properties, e.g. deadlock-freedom and liveness. Recent work has focussed on extending session types to support fault-tolerance, enabling protocols with real-world crash-handling behaviours, e.g. failover and the circuit-breaker pattern. Furthermore such approaches enable a gradual approach to introducing failure-handling, whereby a fully reliable protocol can be made fault-tolerant one participant at a time. Nevertheless, a fault-tolerant protocol can be significantly larger and more complex than the fully-reliable protocol from which it is derived. Moreover, ensuring that the desired transformations are effected uniformly and correctly both from a protocol and implementation perspectives can be a laborious and error-prone process. This PhD project will address this issue by leveraging semi-automatic program transformation techniques from refactoring to develop automatic methods to introduce and manipulate fault-tolerant behaviours in communications protocols. The project will explore the theoretical underpinnings of such transformations, ensuring that the guarantees provided by session types are preserved. Additionally, the project aims to develop tooling to enable application of the developed techniques to real-world code. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It aspires to be a lively environment for presenting the latest research results, and other contributions. This year, TFP will take place in-person at Seton Hall University, in South Orange, NJ in the United States. It is co-located with the Trends in Functional Programming in Education (TFPIE) workshop, which will take on the day before the main symposium. Please be aware that TFP has several submission deadlines. The first, November 4, is for authors that wish to have their full paper reviewed prior to the symposium. Papers that are accepted in this way must also be presented at the symposium. The second, November 30, is for authors that wish to present their work or work-in progress at the symposium first without submitting to the full review process for publication. These authors can then take into account feedback received at the symposium and submit a full article for review by the third deadline, February 23. ## Scope The symposium recognizes that new trends may arise through various routes. As part of the Symposium's focus on trends we therefore identify the following five article categories. High-quality articles are solicited in any of these categories: * Research Articles: Leading-edge, previously unpublished research work * Position Articles: On what new trends should or should not be * Project Articles: Descriptions of recently started new projects * Evaluation Articles: What lessons can be drawn from a finished project * Overview Articles: Summarizing work with respect to a trendy subject Articles must be original and not simultaneously submitted for publication to any other forum. They may consider any aspect of functional programming: theoretical, implementation-oriented, or experience-oriented. Applications of functional programming techniques to other languages are also within the scope of the symposium. Topics suitable for the symposium include, but are not limited to: * Functional programming and multicore/manycore computing * Functional programming in the cloud * High performance functional computing * Extra-functional (behavioural) properties of functional programs * Dependently typed functional programming * Validation and verification of functional programs * Debugging and profiling for functional languages * Functional programming in different application areas: security, mobility, telecommunications applications, embedded systems, global computing, grids, etc. * Interoperability with imperative programming languages * Novel memory management techniques * Program analysis and transformation techniques * Empirical performance studies * Abstract/virtual machines and compilers for functional languages * (Embedded) domain specific languages * New implementation strategies * Any new emerging trend in the functional programming area If you are in doubt on whether your article is within the scope of TFP, please contact the TFP 2024 program chair, Jason Hemann. ## Best Paper Awards TFP awards two prizes for the best papers each year. First, to reward excellent contributions, TFP awards a prize for the best overall paper accepted for the post-conference formal proceedings. Second, each year TFP also awards a prize for the best student paper. TFP traditionally pays special attention to research students, acknowledging that students are almost by definition part of new subject trends. A student paper is one for which the authors state that the paper is mainly the work of students, the students are the paper's first authors, and a student would present the paper. In both cases, it is the PC of TFP that awards the prize. In case the best paper happens to be a student paper, then that paper will receive both prizes. ## Instructions to Authors Authors must submit papers to: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tfp24__;!!IBzWLUs!Q6_OaA75wQeV7LJe9dNzkIvwsUvuSbhwY6NIJyIEdSX0L1VZiId7njF8qj28BM5kdjpkv7ic1MVu7_JL1Ofu9szNr1GS75CI$ Authors of papers have the choice of having their contributions formally reviewed either before or after the Symposium. Further, pre-symposium submissions may either be full (earlier deadline) or draft papers (later deadline). ## Pre-symposium formal review Papers to be formally reviewed before the symposium should be submitted before the early deadline and will receive their reviews and notification of acceptance for both presentation and publication before the symposium. A paper that has been rejected for publication but accepted for presentation may be resubmitted for the post-symposium formal review. ## Post-symposium formal review Draft papers will receive minimal reviews and notification of acceptance for presentation at the symposium. Authors of draft papers will be invited to submit revised papers based on the feedback receive at the symposium. A post-symposium refereeing process will then select a subset of these articles for formal publication. ## Paper categories Draft papers and papers submitted for formal review are submitted as extended abstracts (4 to 10 pages in length) or full papers (20 pages). The submission must clearly indicate which category it belongs to: research, position, project, evaluation, or overview paper. It should also indicate which authors are research students, and whether the main author(s) are students. A draft paper for which all authors are students will receive additional feedback by one of the PC members shortly after the symposium has taken place. ## Format Papers must be written in English, and written using the LNCS style.

URL: From icfp.publicity at googlemail.com Thu Nov 30 05:58:33 2023 From: icfp.publicity at googlemail.com (ICFP Publicity) Date: Thu, 30 Nov 2023 11:58:33 +0100 Subject: [TYPES/announce] ICFP 2024: Call for Papers Message-ID: PACMPL Volume 7, Issue ICFP 2024 Call for Papers Accepted papers to be invited for presentation at The 29th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming Milan, Italy ### Important dates (All dates are in 2023 at 11.59pm Anywhere on Earth.) Paper Submission -- Wed 28 Feb 2024 (AOE) Paper Author Response -- Mon 29 Apr 12:00 - Wed 1 May 12:00 2024 Paper Notification --Mon 20 May 2024 ### NEW THIS YEAR ------------------- * Full double blind reviewing ### Scope ------------------- PACMPL issue ICFP 2024 seeks original papers on the art and science of functional programming. Submissions are invited on all topics from principles to practice, from foundations to features, and from abstraction to application. The scope includes all languages that encourage functional programming, including both purely applicative and imperative languages, as well as languages with objects, concurrency, or parallelism. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Language Design: concurrency, parallelism, and distribution; modularity; components and composition; meta-programming; macros; pattern matching; type systems; type inference; dependent types; effect types; gradual types; refinement types; session types; interoperability; domain-specific languages; imperative programming; object-oriented programming; logic programming; probabilistic programming; reactive programming; generic programming; bidirectional programming. * Implementation: abstract machines; virtual machines; interpretation; compilation; compile-time and run-time optimisation; garbage collection and memory management; runtime systems; multi-threading; exploiting parallel hardware; interfaces to foreign functions, services, components, or low-level machine resources. * Software-Development Techniques: algorithms and data structures; design patterns; specification; verification; validation; proof assistants; debugging; testing; tracing; profiling; build systems; program synthesis. * Foundations: formal semantics; lambda calculus; program equivalence; rewriting; type theory; logic; category theory; computational effects; continuations; control; state; names and binding; program verification. * Analysis and Transformation: control flow; data flow; abstract interpretation; partial evaluation; program calculation. * Applications: symbolic computing; formal-methods tools; artificial intelligence; systems programming; distributed systems and web programming; hardware design; databases; scientific and numerical computing; graphical user interfaces; graphics and multimedia; GPU programming; scripting; system administration; security. * Education: teaching introductory programming; mathematical proof; algebra. Submissions will be evaluated according to their relevance, correctness, significance, originality, and clarity. Each submission should explain its contributions in both general and technical terms, clearly identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and comparing it with previous work. The technical content should be accessible to a broad audience. PACMPL issue ICFP 2024 also welcomes submissions in two separate categories ? Functional Pearls and Experience Reports ? that must be marked as such when submitted and that need not report original research results. Detailed guidelines on both categories are given at the end of this call. In an effort to achieve a balanced, diverse program, each author may be listed as a (co)author on a maximum of four submissions. Submissions from underrepresented groups are encouraged. Authors who require financial support to attend the conference can apply for PAC funding ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/PAC/__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8G2ANxqRg$ ). The General Chair and PC Chair may not submit papers. PC members (other than the PC Chair) may submit papers. Please contact the Program Chair if you have questions or are concerned about the appropriateness of a topic. ### Full Double-Blind Reviewing Process ICFP 2024 will use a full double-blind reviewing process (similar to the one used for POPL 2024 but different from the lightweight double-blind process used in previous years). This means that identities of authors will not be made visible to reviewers until after conditional-acceptance decisions have been made, and then only for the conditionally-accepted papers. The use of full double-blind reviewing has several consequences for authors. * Submissions: Authors must omit their names and institutions from their paper submissions. In addition, references to authors? own prior work should be in the third person (e.g., not ?We build on our previous work ?? but rather ?We build on the work of ??). * Supplementary material: Authors are permitted to provide supplementary material (e.g., detailed proofs, proof scripts, system implementations, or experimental data) along with their submission, which reviewers may (but are not required to) examine. This material may take the form of a single file, such as a PDF or a tarball. Authors must fully anonymize any supplementary material. Links to supplementary material on external websites are not permitted. * Author response: In responding to reviews, authors should not say anything that reveals their identity, since author identities will not be revealed to reviewers at that stage of the reviewing process. * Dissemination of work under submission: Authors are welcome to disseminate their ideas and post draft versions of their paper(s) on their personal website, institutional repository, or arXiv (reviewers will be asked to turn off arXiv notifications during the review period). But authors should not take steps that would almost certainly reveal their identities to members of the Program Committee, e.g., directly contacting PC members or publicizing the work on widely-visible social media or major mailing lists used by the community. The purpose of the above restrictions is to help the Program Committee and external reviewers come to a judgment about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors? identities if they were to try. In particular, nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the quality of the submission. However, there are occasionally cases where adhering to the above restrictions is truly difficult or impossible for one reason or another. In such cases, the authors should contact the Program Chair to discuss the situation and how to handle it. ### Preparation of submissions ------------------------------- * Deadline: The deadline for submissions is Wednesday, 28 February , 2024, Anywhere on Earth (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.timeanddate.com/time/zones/aoe__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8G51pEJO0$ ). This deadline will be strictly enforced. * Formatting: Submissions must be in PDF format, printable in black and white on US Letter sized paper and interpretable by common PDF tools. All submissions must adhere to the ?ACM Small? template that is available (in both LaTeX and Word formats) from https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8GCswLdio$ . There is a limit of 25 pages for a full paper or Functional Pearl and 12 pages for an Experience Report; in either case, the bibliography and an optional clearly marked appendix will not be counted against these limits. Submissions that exceed the page limits or, for other reasons, do not meet the requirements for formatting, will be summarily rejected. See also PACMPL?s Information and Guidelines for Authors at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://pacmpl.acm.org/authors.cfm__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8GcgAWrP0$ . * Submission: Submissions will be accepted at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://icfp24.hotcrp.com/__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8GAUTD83c$ Improved versions of a paper may be submitted at any point before the submission deadline using the same web interface. * Author Response Period: Authors will have a 72-hour period, starting at 12:00 (noon) AOE on Monday, 29 April, 2024, to read reviews and respond to them. * Appendix and Supplementary Material: Authors have the option to include a clearly marked appendix and/or to attach supplementary material to a submission, on the understanding that reviewers may choose not to look at such an appendix or supplementary material. Supplementary material may be uploaded as a separate PDF document or tarball. Any supplementary material must be uploaded at submission time, not by providing a URL in the paper that points to an external repository. All supplementary material must be anonymised. * Authorship Policies: All submissions are expected to comply with the ACM Policies for Authorship that are detailed at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/information-for-authors__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8G_P5pUK4$ . * Republication Policies: Each submission must adhere to SIGPLAN?s republication policy, as explained on the web at https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8GGOEzTb4$ . * ORCID: ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier (an ORCID iD) that you own and control, and that distinguishes you from every other researcher: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://orcid.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8GCQ19iPo$ . ACM now require an ORCID iD for every author of a paper, not just the corresponding author. So, the author who is filling out the permission form should make sure they have the ORCID iDs for all of their coauthors before filling out the form. Any authors who do not yet have an ORCID iD can go to https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://orcid.org/register__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8G4G-Gx20$ to have one assigned. ### Review Process ------------------- This section outlines the two-stage process with lightweight double-blind reviewing that will be used to select papers for PACMPL issue ICFP 2024. New this year, ICFP 2024 will adapt a full double-blind reviewing process. More information see below. ICFP 2024 will have an Associate Chair who will help the PC Chair monitor reviews, solicit external expert reviews for submissions when there is not enough expertise on the committee, and facilitate reviewer discussions. PACMPL issue ICFP 2024 will employ a two-stage review process. The first stage in the review process will assess submitted papers using the criteria stated above and will allow for feedback and input on initial reviews through the author response period mentioned previously. As a result of the review process, a set of papers will be conditionally accepted and all other papers will be rejected. Authors will be notified of these decisions on 20 May, 2024. Authors of conditionally accepted papers will be provided with committee reviews along with a set of mandatory revisions. By 11 June, 2024, the authors should provide a second revised submission. The second and final reviewing phase assesses whether the mandatory revisions have been adequately addressed by the authors and thereby determines the final accept/reject status of the paper. The intent and expectation is that the mandatory revisions can feasibly be addressed within three weeks. The second submission should clearly identify how the mandatory revisions were addressed. To that end, the second submission must be accompanied by a cover letter mapping each mandatory revision request to specific parts of the paper. The cover letter will facilitate a quick second review, allowing for confirmation of final acceptance within two weeks. Conversely, the absence of a cover letter will be grounds for the paper?s rejection. ### Information for Authors of Accepted Papers ---------------------------------------------- As a condition of acceptance, final versions of all papers must adhere to the ACM Small format. The page limit for the final versions of papers will be increased by two pages to help authors respond to reviewer comments and mandatory revisions: 27 pages plus bibliography for a regular paper or Functional Pearl, 14 pages plus bibliography for an Experience Report. Authors of accepted submissions will be required to agree to one of the three ACM licensing options, one of which is Creative Commons CC-BY publication; this is the option recommended by the PACMPL editorial board. A reasoned argument in favour of this option can be found in the article Why CC-BY? published by OASPA, the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association. The other options are copyright transfer to ACM or retaining copyright but granting ACM exclusive publication rights. PACMPL is a Gold Open Access journal, and authors are encouraged to publish their work under a CC-BY license. Gold Open Access guarantees permanent free online access to the definitive version in the ACM Digital Library, and the recommended CC-BY option also allows anyone to copy and distribute the work with attribution. Gold Open Access has been made possible by generous funding through ACM SIGPLAN, which will cover all open access costs in the event authors cannot. Authors who can cover the costs may do so by paying an Article Processing Charge (APC). PACMPL, SIGPLAN, and ACM Headquarters are committed to exploring routes to making Gold Open Access publication both affordable and sustainable. ACM Author-Izer is a unique service that enables ACM authors to generate and post links on either their home page or institutional repository for visitors to download the definitive version of their articles from the ACM Digital Library at no charge. Downloads through Author-Izer links are captured in official ACM statistics, improving the accuracy of usage and impact measurements. Consistently linking to the definitive version of an ACM article should reduce user confusion over article versioning. After an article has been published and assigned to the appropriate ACM Author Profile pages, authors should visit https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.acm.org/publications/acm-author-izer-service__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8GOc_K2O0$ to learn how to create links for free downloads from the ACM DL. The official publication date is the date the papers are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. Authors of each accepted submission are invited to attend and be available for the presentation of that paper at the conference. The schedule for presentations will be determined and shared with authors after the full program has been selected. ### Artifact Evaluation ----------------------- Authors of papers that are conditionally accepted in the first phase of the review process will be encouraged (but not required) to submit supporting materials for Artifact Evaluation. These items will then be reviewed by an Artifact Evaluation Committee, separate from the paper Review Committee, whose task is to assess how the artifacts support the work described in the associated paper. Papers that go through the Artifact Evaluation process successfully will receive a seal of approval printed on the papers themselves. Authors of accepted papers will be encouraged to make the supporting materials publicly available upon publication of the papers, for example, by including them as ?source materials? in the ACM Digital Library. An additional seal will mark papers whose artifacts are made available, as outlined in the ACM guidelines for artifact badging. Participation in Artifact Evaluation is voluntary and will not influence the final decision regarding paper acceptance. ### Special categories of papers ------------------------------- In addition to research papers, PACMPL issue ICFP solicits two kinds of papers that do not require original research contributions: Functional Pearls, which are full papers, and Experience Reports, which are limited to half the length of a full paper. Authors submitting such papers should consider the following guidelines. * Functional Pearls - A Functional Pearl is an elegant essay about something related to functional programming. Examples include, but are not limited to: - a new and thought-provoking way of looking at an old idea - an instructive example of program calculation or proof - a nifty presentation of an old or new data structure - an interesting application of functional programming techniques - a novel use or exposition of functional programming in the classroom While pearls often demonstrate an idea through the development of a short program, there is no requirement or expectation that they do so. Thus, they encompass the notions of theoretical and educational pearls. Functional Pearls are valued as highly and judged as rigorously as ordinary papers, but using somewhat different criteria. In particular, a pearl is not required to report original research, but, it should be concise, instructive, and entertaining. A pearl is likely to be rejected if its readers get bored, if the material gets too complicated, if too much-specialised knowledge is needed, or if the writing is inelegant. The key to writing a good pearl is polishing. A submission that is intended to be treated as a pearl must be marked as such on the submission web page and should contain the words ?Functional Pearl? somewhere in its title or subtitle. These steps will alert reviewers to use the appropriate evaluation criteria. Pearls will be combined with ordinary papers, however, for the purpose of computing the conference?s acceptance rate. * Experience Reports The purpose of an Experience Report is to describe the experience of using functional programming in practice, whether in industrial application, tool development, programming education, or any other area. Possible topics for an Experience Report include, but are not limited to: - insights gained from real-world projects using functional programming - comparison of functional programming with conventional programming in the context of an industrial project or a university curriculum - project-management, business, or legal issues encountered when using functional programming in a real-world project - curricular issues encountered when using functional programming in education - real-world constraints that created special challenges for an implementation of a functional language or for functional programming in general An Experience Report is distinguished from a normal PACMPL issue ICFP paper by its title, by its length, and by the criteria used to evaluate it. Both in the papers and in any citations, the title of each accepted Experience Report must end with the words ?(Experience Report)? in parentheses. The acceptance rate for Experience Reports will be computed and reported separately from the rate for ordinary papers. Experience Report submissions can be at most 12 pages long, excluding bibliography. Each accepted Experience Report will be presented at the conference, but depending on the number of Experience Reports and regular papers accepted, authors of Experience Reports may be asked to give shorter talks. Because the purpose of Experience Reports is to enable our community to understand the application of functional programming, an acceptable Experience Report need not add to the body of knowledge of the functional-programming community by presenting novel results or conclusions. It is sufficient if the report describes an illuminating experience with functional programming, or provides evidence for a clear thesis about the use of functional programming. The experience or thesis must be relevant to ICFP, but it need not be novel. The review committee will accept or reject Experience Reports based on whether they judge the paper to illuminate some aspect of the use of functional programming. Anecdotal evidence will be acceptable provided it is well-argued and the author explains what efforts were made to gather as much evidence as possible. Typically, papers that show how functional programming was used are more convincing than papers that say only that functional programming was used. It can be especially effective to present comparisons of the situations before and after the experience described in the paper, but other kinds of evidence would also make sense, depending on context. Experience drawn from a single person?s experience may be sufficient, but more weight will be given to evidence drawn from the experience of groups of people. An Experience Report should be short and to the point. For an industrial project, it should make a claim about how well functional programming worked and why; for a pedagogy paper, it might make a claim about the suitability of a particular teaching style or educational exercise. Either way, it should produce evidence to substantiate the claim. If functional programming worked in this case in the same ways it has worked for others, the paper need only summarise the results ? the main part of the paper should discuss how well it worked and in what context. Most readers will not want to know all the details of the experience and its implementation, but the paper should characterise it and its context well enough so that readers can judge to what degree this experience is relevant to their own circumstances. The paper should take care to highlight any unusual aspects; specifics about the experience are more valuable than generalities about functional programming. If the paper not only describes experience but also presents new technical results, or if the experience refutes cherished beliefs of the functional-programming community, it may be better to submit it as a full paper, which will be judged by the usual criteria of novelty, originality, and relevance. The Program Chair will be happy to advise on any concerns about which category to submit to. ### About PACMPL ---------------- Proceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages (PACMPL https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://pacmpl.acm.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!TA6exFGeBGGJWiNbpbbvsLmfsZwoc5ukb01eZFZgKUeY3QrHSEgl9zZtFa-iqwSxslVLIe6AZNN4IdHWazJ32jhdVOz6qMH-ds8GxjigFP0$ ) is a Gold Open Access journal publishing research on all aspects of programming languages, from design to implementation and from mathematical formalisms to empirical studies.

Online participation will be possible with a reduced registration fees, but at least an author of each abstract will have to register with on-site fees. == About FICS workshop series == The goal is to bring together people from different subfields such as algebra/coalgebra, verification, logic, around the thematic of fixed points. Fixed points play a fundamental role in several areas of computer science. They are used to justify (co)recursive definitions and associated reasoning techniques. The construction and properties of fixed points have been investigated in many different settings such as: design and implementation of programming languages, logics, verification, databases. Topics include, but are not restricted to: - fixed points in algebra and coalgebra - fixed points in formal languages and automata - fixed points in game theory - fixed points in programming language semantics - fixed points in proofs - fixed points in the mu-calculus and modal logics - fixed points in process algebras and process calculi - fixed points in functional programming and type theory - fixed points in relation to dataflow and circuits - fixed points in automated theorem proving, interactive theorem proving and logic programming - fixed points in finite model theory, descriptive complexity theory, and databases - fixed points in category theory for logic in computer science == Types of submissions == This year, we welcome two categories of submissions, short abstracts as well as extended abstracts: - Both types of submissions will be handled via Easychair and will be peer-reviewed by the PC. - In order to submit a short or extended abstract to FICS, please visit the following link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fics2024__;!!IBzWLUs!QVO7JvokLDvmQFl0fB5FcinRBHbNySL-cJmlDnl7tklB51MejPM7VcxXBaQFt-fdWuxa1UiOTjxX0f7baeAd1Ac_MWWziVEJiK545aU$ - A proceedings volume gathering the extended abstracts will be published by EPTCS shortly after the workshop (see details below). Here are details on each type of submission: - **short abstracts** are abstracts of **3 to 5 pages, references included**, describing the topic of the proposed contributed talk. They may contain (i) new completed results, (ii) work in progress or (iii) already (recently) published or submitted works. The submission can refer to a published paper or a preprint but the description given in the short abstract should be sufficiently detailed for the PC to judge the relevance of the proposed talk to the workshop program. - **extended abstracts** are papers of **6 to 10 pages, references excluded**, describing original results which have not been published nor are currently submitted elsewhere. The results must be presented in sufficient details to constitute a scientific publication. An appendix can provide additional details for the reviewer but will be read at the discretion of the reviewers. A volume of proceedings containing the **extended abstracts** will be published soon after the workshop by EPTCS: the authors of extended abstracts will be asked to submit a revised version few weeks after the event, allowing them to take into account the workshop discussions.

However, much research focuses exclusively on one or the other, instead of leveraging synergies between them. This AAAI '24 bridge (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://aaai.org/aaai-conference/aaai-24-bridge-program/__;!!IBzWLUs!XemE1II3qNbLDF99ZXPV_qgB9cPMcJCLzj9A3PCB2ZM2hi0w6WQS1hadao4oIFbIEBDvxBNmLfBXY5Ax7A4J2HyoxMvyALvy$ ) workshop, a continuation of last year's 2023 inaugural meeting, aims to connect researchers from each sub-field and educate them about the other, including but not limited to recent applications of deep learning. The workshop will involve a series of tutorial lectures followed by group discussion. The focus of the bridge workshop is not to present novel research results, but rather to foster learning, discussion, and cross-pollination among fields. We are interested in folks giving a range of talks from tutorials, positions / cool ideas, and long-term vision for the future of the space.

We are really looking to keep the workshop informal, engaging, and discussion-focused. If you (or a PhD student you know) are planning to attend AAAI, and you are potentially interested in hybridizing ideas and techniques from program synthesis, proof synthesis, language modeling, etc... Please reach out to us: we are happy to discuss and see if there would be a potential fit. And please spread the word about AP2S to folks in your circles interested in theorem proving, program synthesis, and learning. Last year, we had a relatively small crowd, but there were very lively discussions. It is an exciting (and timely!) mix of topics, and we are looking forward to this year's AP2S bridge.

Abstracts: Thursday, 7 December 2023 AoE Papers: Friday, 15 December 2023 AoE # Overview Historically, formal methods academic research and practical software development have had limited mutual interactions ? except possibly in specialized domains such as safety-critical software. In recent times, the outlook has considerably improved: on the one hand, formal methods research has delivered more flexible techniques and tools that can support various aspects of the software development process ? from user requirements elicitation, to design, implementation, verification and validation, as well as the creation of documentation. On the other hand, software engineering has developed a growing interest in rigorous techniques applied at scale. The FormaliSE conference series promotes work at the intersection of the formal methods and software engineering communities, providing a venue to exchange ideas, experiences, techniques, and results. We believe more collaboration between these two communities can be mutually beneficial by fostering the creation of formal methods that are practically useful and by helping develop higher-quality software. Originally a workshop event, since 2018 FormaliSE has been organized as a conference co-located with ICSE. The 12th edition of FormaliSE will also take place as a co-located conference of ICSE 2024. # Topics of Interest Area of interest (include but are not limited to): * requirements formalization and formal specification; * approaches, methods, and tools for verification and validation; * formal approaches to safety and security related issues; * analysis of performance and other non-functional properties based on formal approaches; * scalability of formal method applications; * integration of formal methods within the software development lifecycle (e.g., change management, continuous integration, regression testing, and deployment); * model-based engineering approaches; * correctness-by-construction approaches for software and systems engineering; * application of formal methods to specific domains (such as, autonomous, cyber-physical, intelligent, and IoT systems); * formal methods for AI-based systems, and AI applied in formal method approaches; * formal methods for certification; * guidelines to use formal methods in practice; * usability of formal methods; # Important Dates |---------------------|------------------| |Abstracts due: | 7 December 2023 | |Submissions due: | 15 December 2023 | |Notifications: | 12 January 2024 | |Camera ready copies: | 28 January 2024 | |FormaliSE conference:| 14-15 April 2024 | |---------------------|------------------| # Paper Submission Guidelines We accept papers in three categories: * ***Full research papers*** describing original research work and results. We encourage authors to include validation of their contributions by means of a case study or experiments. We also welcome research papers focusing on tools and tool development. * ***Case study papers*** discussing a significant application that suggests general lessons learned and motivates further research, or empirically validates theoretical results (such as a technique's scalability). * ***Research ideas papers*** describing new ideas in preliminary form, in a way that can stimulate interesting discussions at the conference, and suggest future work. All papers submitted to the FormaliSE 2024 conference must be written in English, must be unpublished original work, and must not be under review or submitted elsewhere at the time of submission. Submissions must comply with the FormaliSE's lightweight double-anonymous review process (see below). Full research papers and case study papers can take up to 10 pages including all text, figures, tables and appendices, but excluding references. Research ideas papers can take up to 4 pages, plus up to 1 additional page solely for references. To avoid that authors waste time fitting their papers into the stated limit at the expense of presentation clarity, paper lengths slightly exceeding the stated limit will still be considered, provided that the reviewers find that the presentation is of high quality. All submissions must be in PDF format and must conform to the [ACM Primary Article Template](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template__;!!IBzWLUs!TuXL9jAXataAWRka4w35BGDDhzow83Q91r90O5K46PaFHFUtVfaTIVjlKRixXfPNYOV_Y68uM-iYWu1sUbO6wOqYs_vnth4$ ). In LaTeX, use options `sigconf`, `review`, and `anonymous`: `\documentclass[sigconf,review,anonymous]{acmart}`. These options add line numbers (which helps reviewers refer to specific lines in a submission), and omit author information (as required by the double-anonymous format). To submit a paper to FormaliSE 2024 use the following HotCRP link: # Lightweight Double-Anonymous Review Process for Papers As in recent editions, FormaliSE 2024 will use a lightweight double-anonymous process. Authors must omit their names and institutions from the title page, cite their own work in the third person, and omit acknowledgments that may reveal their identity or affiliation. The purpose is reducing chances of reviewer bias influenced by the authors? identities. The double-anonymous process is, however, lightweight, which means that it should not pose a heavy burden for authors, nor should make a paper's presentation weaker or more difficult to review. Also, advertising the paper as part of your usual research activities (for example, on your personal web-page, in a pre-print archive, by email, in talks or discussions with colleagues) is permitted without penalties. # Paper Selection Each paper will be reviewed by at least three program committee members that will judge its overall quality in terms of its soundness, significance, novelty, verifiability, and presentation clarity. FormaliSE 2024 will adopt a lightweight response process: if all the reviewers of a given paper agree that a clarification from the authors regarding a specific question could move the paper from "borderline" to "accept", the chairs will relay the reviewers' questions to the authors by email, and then share their reply with the reviewers in HotCRP. The goal of lightweight responses is reducing the chance of random decisions on borderline papers. Hence, they will only be used for a minority of submissions; most papers will not require such an author response. Nevertheless, we would ask the corresponding authors of all submissions to make sure that they are available to answer questions by email upon request. # Artifact Evaluation Reproducibility of experimental results is crucial to foster an atmosphere of trustworthy, open, and reusable research. To improve and reward reproducibility, FormaliSE 2023 continues its Artifact Evaluation (AE) procedure. An artifact is any additional material (software, data sets, machine-checkable proofs, etc.) that substantiates the claims made in the paper and ideally makes them fully reproducible. Submission of an artifact is optional but encouraged for all papers where it can support the results presented in the paper. Artifact review is single-anonymous (the paper corresponding to an artifact must still follow the double-anonymous submissions requirements) and will be conducted concurrently with the paper reviewing process. Artifacts will be handled by a separate Artifact Evaluation Committee, and the Artifact Evaluation process will be set up such that the anonymization of the corresponding papers will not be compromised. Accepted papers with a successfully evaluated artefact will be awarded the [EAPLS badges](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://eapls.org/pages/artifact_badges/__;!!IBzWLUs!TuXL9jAXataAWRka4w35BGDDhzow83Q91r90O5K46PaFHFUtVfaTIVjlKRixXfPNYOV_Y68uM-iYWu1sUbO6wOqYKZxH-PI$ ) that apply (among "Functional", "Reusable", and "Available"). Awarded badges are to be added to the camera-ready version of the paper. Artifacts will be assessed with respect to their consistency with the results presented in the paper, their completeness, their documentation, and their ease of use. The Artifact Evaluation will include an initial check for technical issues; authors of artifacts may be contacted by email within the first two weeks after artifact submission to help resolve any technical problems that prevent the evaluation of an artifact if necessary. The results of an artifact evaluation will not be available to the reviewers of the corresponding paper; hence, they will not affect the paper's acceptance decision. However, reviewers will know whether a paper has submitted **any** artifacts; this piece of information may be taken into account to decide whether the paper should be accepted. Thus, if there are justifiable reasons why a paper's artifacts cannot be submitted, they should be pointed out in the paper so that the reviewers can appreciate them and adjust their expectations accordingly. Detailed guidelines for preparation and submission of artifacts will be described in a dedicated page in [FormaliSE 2024's website](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://formalise2024.github.io/__;!!IBzWLUs!TuXL9jAXataAWRka4w35BGDDhzow83Q91r90O5K46PaFHFUtVfaTIVjlKRixXfPNYOV_Y68uM-iYWu1sUbO6wOqYjwfHwGw$ ). # Publication All accepted papers are published as part of the ICSE 2024 Proceedings in the ACM and IEEE Digital Libraries. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register for the conference and present the paper at the conference ? physically or, if the circumstances do not allow so, virtually. Failure to register an author will result in a paper being removed from the proceedings. # Organization ## General Chairs * Stefania Gnesi, Istituto di Scienza e Tecnologie dell?Informazione (Italy) * Nico Plat, University of Twente (The Netherlands) ## Program Chairs * Carlo A.

Abstract Around 1930 a major paradigm shift occurred in the foundations of mathematics; we may call it the METAMATHEMATICAL TURN. Until then the task of a logician had been to design and explain a full-scale formal language that was adequate for the practice of mathematical analysis in such a way that the axioms and rules of inference of the theory were rendered evident by the explanations. The metamathematical turn changed the status of the formal languages: now they became (meta)mathematical objects of study. We no longer communicate with the aid of the formal systems ? we communicate about them. Kleene?s realizability (JSL 1945) gave a metamathematical (re-)interpretation of arithmetic inside arithmetic. Heyting and Kolmogorov (1931-2), on the other hand, had used ?proofs? of propositions, respectively ?solutions? to problems, in order to explain the meaning of the mathematical language, rather than reinterpret it internally. We now have the choice to view the Curry-Howard isomorphism, say, as a variant of realizability, when it will be an internal mathematical re-interpretation, or to adopt an atavistic, Frege-like, viewpoint and look at the language as being rendered meaningful. This perspective will be used to discuss another paradigm shift, namely that of distinguishing constructivism and intuitionism. The hesitant attitude of G?del, Kreisel, and Michael Dummett, will be spelled out, and, at the hand of unpublished source material, a likely reason given. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

ECOOP solicits innovative solutions to real problems as well as evaluations of existing solutions. Authors are asked to pick one of the following categories: - **Research.** The most traditional category for papers that advance the state of the art. - **Replication.** An empirical evaluation that reconstructs a published experiment in a different context in order to validate the results of that earlier work. - **Experience.** Applications of known PL techniques in practice as well as tools. Industry papers will be reviewed by practitioners. We welcome negative results that may provide inspiration for future research. - **Pearls/Brave New Ideas.** Articles that either explain a known idea in an elegant way or unconventional papers introducing ideas that may take some time to substantiate. These papers may be short. ======= Submissions ======= Submission must not have been published, or have major overlap with previous work. In case of doubt, contact the chairs. Proceedings are published in open access by Dagstuhl LIPIcs in the Dagstuhl LIPIcs LaTeX-style template. To reduce friction when resubmitting, ACM's PACMPL and TOPLAS formatted papers can be submitted as such (with the understanding that if accepted, they will be reformatted). ECOOP uses double-anonymous reviewing. Authors' identities are only revealed if a paper is accepted. Papers must omit author names and institutions, and use the third person when referencing the authors' own work. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission; see the FAQ. If in doubt, contact the chairs. There is no page limit on submissions, but authors must understand that reviewers have a fixed time budget for each paper, so the length of the feedback is likely to be unaffected by length. Brevity is a virtue. Authors also have to consider that the camera-ready version must be at most 25 pages in LIPIcs format (not including references). Authors will be given a three-day period to read and respond to the reviews of their papers before the program committee meeting. Responses have no length limit. ==== Artifact Evaluation and Intent ==== To support replication of experiments, authors of research papers may submit artifacts to the Artifact Evaluation Committee. They will be asked whether they intend to submit an artifact at submission time. It is understood that some papers do not have artifacts. AEC members will serve on the extended review committee. ============ Important Dates ============ ECOOP will continue to have two deadlines for submissions. Papers submitted in each round can be (a) accepted, (b) rejected, or (c) asked for revisions. Rejected papers that are submitted to the immediate next round can be desk-rejected if they do not sufficiently differ from the previous submission. Revisions can be submitted at any later round. Papers retain their reviewers during revision. - Submission R1: January 17, 2024 - Artifacts R1: January 23, 2024 - Response R1: March 6, 2024 - Notification R1: March 19, 2024 - Submission R2: April 17, 2024 - Artifacts R2: April 23, 2024 - Response R2: June 5, 2024 - Notification R2: June 19, 2024 ==== Journal First and Journal After ==== We have Journal First/After arrangements with ACM's Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems (TOPLAS), Elsevier's Science of Computer Programming (SCP) and AITO's Journal of Object Technology (JOT). Only new research papers are eligible to be Journal First (JF). JF papers will have an extended abstract in the ECOOP proceedings. The deadline is the same as Round 1 of submissions and the notification is aligned with Round 2 notification. TOPLAS JF papers should be submitted according to this announcement. SCP JF papers should follow this call for papers. JF papers are presented at the conference and eligible for awards. Journal After (JA) papers are papers for which the authors request to be considered for post conference journal publication. Once accepted by the ECOOP PC, these papers will be forwarded to the journal editors. Reviews and reviewers will be forwarded and used at the editor's discretion. JA papers will have an extended abstract (up to 12 pages) in the conference proceedings.

New models, architectures, languages, and verification techniques are necessary to cope with the complexity induced by the demands of today's software development. Coordination languages have emerged as a successful approach, in that they provide abstractions that cleanly separate behaviour from communication, therefore increasing modularity, simplifying reasoning, and ultimately enhancing software development. Building on the success of the previous editions, this conference provides a well-established forum for the growing community of researchers interested in models, languages, architectures, and implementation techniques for coordination. Main Topics ============== Topics of interest encompass all areas of coordination, including (but not limited to) coordination-related aspects of: - Theoretical models and foundations for coordination: component composition, concurrency, distribution, mobility; dynamic, spatial and probabilistic aspects of coordination; logic, types, semantics. - Coordination of multi-agent and collective systems: models, languages, infrastructures, self-adaptation, self-organisation, distributed solving, collective intelligence and emerging behaviour. - Coordination and modern distributed computing: web services, microservices, peer-to-peer networks, grid computing, context-awareness, ubiquitous computing, mobile computing, reversible computing. - Session-based programming: models, languages, behavioural types, and tools. - Models, languages, verification techniques, and tools for interacting smart contracts and (blockchain-based) decentralised applications. - Languages, methodologies, and tools for secure coordination. - Cybersecurity aspects of coordinated systems, coordinated approaches to cybersecurity. - Nature- and bio-inspired approaches to coordination. - Specification, refinement, and analysis of architectures: patterns and styles, verification of functional and non-functional properties, including performance and security aspects. - Dynamic software architectures: distributed mobile code, configuration, reconfiguration, networked computing, parallel, high-performance and cloud computing. - Coordination platforms for infrastructures of emergent new application domains, like IoT, fog-, and edge-computing. - Programming methodologies, languages, middleware, tools, and environments for the development and verification of coordinated applications, including DevOps approaches. - Coordination in business process management: coordination models for business process management, process mining techniques and tools for coordination models. - Industrial relevance of coordination and software architectures: programming in the large, domain-specific software architectures and coordination models, industry-driven efforts in coordination and case studies. - Interdisciplinary aspects of coordination. Invited Speaker ================== Marieke Huisman, University of Twente, The Netherlands Important dates ================== - Abstract submission: February 02, 2024 - Paper submission: February 09, 2024 - Paper notification: March 29, 2024 - Camera-ready: April 24, 2024 Dates are Anywhere on Earth (AoE). Submission ============= We invite you to submit: - Regular papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing thorough and complete research results and experience reports. In a clear case of need, as an exception, authors may ask for permission via email to the PC co-chairs to exceed the paper's max length by at most 10%, under the condition that last-minute shortening would really damage the clarity of the paper or result in non-submission. The authors must make a draft of the paper available to the PC co-chairs via EasyChair. - Short papers (4-6 pages, not counting references): describing research in progress or opinion papers on the past of COORDINATION research, on the current state of the art, or on prospects for the years to come. - Survey papers (16-25 pages, not counting references): describing important results and success stories related to the topics of COORDINATION. - Tool papers (4-15 pages, not counting references): describing technological artefacts in the scope of the research topics of COORDINATION. Tool papers should provide a clear account of the tool's functionality, discuss the tool's practical capabilities possibly with reference to the type and size of problems it can handle, and, when applicable, report on realistic case studies (possibly providing a rigorous experimental evaluation). Tool papers may also provide an account of the theoretical foundations, including relevant citations, and present design and implementation concerns, possibly including software architecture and core data structures. Papers that present extensions to existing tools should clearly describe the improvements or extensions with respect to previously published versions of the tool, possibly providing data on enhancements in terms of resources and capabilities. Papers may contain a link to a publicly downloadable MPEG-4 demo video of at most 10 minutes length. Artefacts ============ Following ACM's definition [1], an artefact is "a digital object that was either created by the authors to be used as part of the study or generated by the experiment itself. For example, artifacts can be software systems, scripts used to run experiments, input datasets, raw data collected in the experiment, or scripts used to analyze results". To improve and reward reproducibility and to give more visibility and credit to the effort of tool developers in the COORDINATION community, authors of submitted papers are invited to submit publicly available artefacts (using permanent repositories such as Software Heritage, Zenodo, etc.), which will be associated with their paper for evaluation. Based on the result of the artefact evaluation, one or more badges may be applied to a paper. Specifically, COORDINATION uses the EAPLS badging scheme [2], which in its own turn is based on and consistent with the ACM initiative. Artefact submission is mandatory for tool papers and the result of the artefact evaluation will be considered in the tool paper's acceptance decision. Instead, artefact submission is optional for all the other paper categories and the result of the artefact evaluation will not affect the paper's acceptance decision but may affect the best paper selection. Dates (AoE): - Artefact submission: February 29, 2024 - Kick-the-tires phase: - Problem reports from reviewers: 8 March, 2024 - Authors' response to reviewers: 15 March, 2024 - Artefact notification: March 29, 2024 [1] https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/artifact-review-and-badging-current__;!!IBzWLUs!RjWeCN3UKnw7Th9CP8cGLhOWY6UuJDwJ40Dvgiddehigcc-sHdL5Eo0MvXrjrIkdKFotbQF05U9LB2Rk0EOqcWp_wZBFD2ZqaD1ve_fH$ [2] https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://eapls.org/pages/artifact_badges__;!!IBzWLUs!RjWeCN3UKnw7Th9CP8cGLhOWY6UuJDwJ40Dvgiddehigcc-sHdL5Eo0MvXrjrIkdKFotbQF05U9LB2Rk0EOqcWp_wZBFD2ZqaAqcaeUg$ Proceedings ============== The conference proceedings, consisting of accepted submissions from any paper category, will be published by Springer in LNCS-IFIP volumes. Special issues ================= After the conference, accepted papers (except for tool papers) selected from COORDINATION and FORTE programmes will be invited to a special issue of the Logical Methods in Computer Science journal. The paper submission deadline is planned for October/November 2024, while the notifications for the first round of reviews around February 2025. Selected accepted tool papers, instead, will be invited to a special issue of a reputable journal with a track dedicated to software, like the Journal of Science of Computer Programming's Software Track.

The festschrift will be published as an issue of the Springer LNCS series. Alan is well-known for his many pioneering contributions to programming language theory and applications, both design and implementation, ranging from abstract interpretation and static analysis; to compilation, optimization techniques, and type systems; to parallel, concurrent and dataflow programming, but also for his work as a co-founder of the Raspberry Pi Foundation and as the co-creator of the Norcroft C compiler. To those who have worked with Alan, he is renowned for his unstoppable enthusiasm about any challenging problem related to programming and computers, making him an inspiring teacher, mentor, and collaborator. To celebrate Alan's retirement, we solicit original contributions in all areas of programming language research, including clever hacker tricks, beautiful mathematical theories, practically useful programming techniques, novel language design ideas, and visions for the future of education and programming technology. Just as Alan does not fit any pre-existing well-defined box, we invite contributions outside the established boxes that cover a wide range of areas and use a wide range of styles. The criteria are academic interest, novelty, scientific quality, and a connection to Alan's own work. The festschrift follows a symposium held at the University of Cambridge in December 2023 where a number of talks were contributed by Alan's collaborators, colleagues, and former students. This call for papers is an open call; you do not need to have had a talk at the symposium or a paper in the informal proceedings of the symposium. Please share with anyone you think would be interested or who has had a connection with Alan and/or his work in the past.

The award is for an outstanding contribution represented by a paper or by a small group of papers published within the past 25 years. This time span allows the lasting impact and depth of the contribution to have been established. The award can be given to an individual, or to a group of individuals who have collaborated on the research. For the rules governing this award, see https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://siglog.org/alonzo-church-award/__;!!IBzWLUs!WIwXfzyfydY2SQUmQL1ROOMaHZbM0Ef_7AEp3-dNm68TdhzGKjtntuqCsOEraLqv6pVmzH-1gE7u1MaCgKNo_EYijYcPpwFEGM4fL7fj$ , https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.eatcs.org/index.php/church-award/__;!!IBzWLUs!WIwXfzyfydY2SQUmQL1ROOMaHZbM0Ef_7AEp3-dNm68TdhzGKjtntuqCsOEraLqv6pVmzH-1gE7u1MaCgKNo_EYijYcPpwFEGF9zYrKl$ , and https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.eacsl.org/alonzo-church-award/__;!!IBzWLUs!WIwXfzyfydY2SQUmQL1ROOMaHZbM0Ef_7AEp3-dNm68TdhzGKjtntuqCsOEraLqv6pVmzH-1gE7u1MaCgKNo_EYijYcPpwFEGBfZh4sg$ . The 2023 Alonzo Church Award was jointly to Lars Birkedal, Ale? Bizjak, Derek Dreyer, Jacques-Henri Jourdan, Ralf Jung, Robbert Krebbers, Filip Sieczkowski, Kasper Svendsen, David Swasey and Aaron Turon for the design and implementation of Iris, a higher-order concurrent separation logic framework. ELIGIBILITY AND NOMINATIONS The contribution must have appeared in a paper or papers published within the past 25 years. Thus, for the 2024 award, the cut-off date is January 1, 1999. When a paper has appeared in a conference and then in a journal, the date of the journal publication will determine the cut-off date. In addition, the contribution must not yet have received recognition via a major award, such as the Turing Award, the Kanellakis Award, or the Goedel Prize. (The nominee(s) may have received such awards for other contributions.) While the contribution can consist of conference or journal papers, journal papers will be given a preference. Nominations for the 2024 award are now being solicited. The nominating letter must summarise the contribution and make the case that it is fundamental and outstanding. The nominating letter can have multiple co-signers. Self-nominations are excluded. Nominations must include: a proposed citation (up to 25 words); a succinct (100-250 words) description of the contribution; and a detailed statement (not exceeding four pages) to justify the nomination. Nominations may also be accompanied by supporting letters and other evidence of worthiness. Nominations for the 2024 award are automatically considered for all future editions of the award, until they receive the award or the nominated papers are no longer eligible. Nominations should be submitted to igor.walukiewicz at gmail.com by March 1, 2024. PRESENTATION OF THE AWARD The 2024 award will be presented at the Thirty-Ninth Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS) which is scheduled to take place in Tallinn, Estonia during 8?12 July 2024. The award will be accompanied by an invited lecture by the award winner, or by one of the award winners. The awardee(s) will receive a certificate and a cash prize of USD 2,000. If there are multiple awardees, this amount will be shared. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This is a satellite event of ETAPS 2024 (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://etaps.org/__;!!IBzWLUs!TTi9IzUtUp-ybsM5QAoCNYk1t9v_sm9AOcG2RBnkmBq79zAVn9HzXfh4e47iNzxbmCUwSdryH5aPgtrVa_mzrDV8l2jQLaLwxvk$ ), Luxembourg, April 6-7, 2024. Rewriting is a natural model of computation and an expressive semantic framework for concurrency, parallelism, communication, and interaction. It can be used for specifying a wide range of systems and languages in various application domains. It also has good properties as a metalogical framework for representing logics. Several successful languages based on rewriting (ASF+SDF, CafeOBJ, ELAN, Maude) have been designed and implemented. The aim of WRLA is to bring together researchers with a common interest in rewriting and its applications, and to give them the opportunity to present their recent work, discuss future research directions, and exchange ideas. TOPICS OF INTEREST The topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to: 1. Foundations - foundations and models of rewriting and rewriting logic, including termination, confluence, coherence, and complexity - unification, generalization, narrowing, and partial evaluation - constrained rewriting and symbolic algebra - graph rewriting - tree automata - rewriting strategies - rewriting-based calculi and explicit substitutions 2. Rewriting as a Logical and Semantic Framework - uses of rewriting and rewriting logic as a logical framework, including deduction modulo - uses of rewriting as a semantic framework for programming language semantics - rewriting semantics of concurrency models, distributed systems, and network protocols - rewriting semantics of real-time, hybrid, and probabilistic systems - uses of rewriting for compilation and language transformation 3. Rewriting Languages - rewriting-based declarative languages - type systems for rewriting - implementation techniques - tools supporting rewriting languages 4. Verification Techniques - verification of confluence, termination, coherence, sufficient completeness, and related properties - temporal, modal, and reachability logics for verifying dynamic properties of rewrite theories - explicit-state and symbolic model checking techniques for verification of rewrite theories - rewriting-based theorem proving, including (co)inductive theorem proving - rewriting-based constraint solving and satisfiability - rewriting-semantics-based verification and analysis of programs 5. Applications - applications in logic, mathematics, physics, and biology - rewriting models of biology, chemistry, and membrane systems - security specification and verification - applications to distributed, network, mobile, and cloud computing - specification and verification of real-time, hybrid, probabilistic, and cyber-physical systems - specification and verification of critical systems - applications to model-based software engineering - applications to engineering and planning. 6. Education - how to design a course in which programming, formal specification, formal verification, etc. with Maude, Elan, CafeOBJ, etc. are taught - examples used in such courses - how to attract students for such courses - any issues related to such courses PUBLICATION All accepted papers will be presented at the workshop and included in the pre-proceedings, which will be available during the workshop. Following the tradition of the last editions, regular, tool, and invited papers will be published as a volume in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series to be distributed after the workshop. PAPER SUBMISSIONS The program of the workshop will include regular papers, tool papers, education papers, and work-in-progress presentations. Regular papers must contain original contributions, be clearly written, include appropriate references, and comparison with related work. Tool papers have to present a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to an existing tool. They should provide a short description of the theoretical foundations with relevant citations, emphasize the design and implementation, and give a clear account of the tool's functionality. The described tools may be made available via the web. Education papers could contain how to design a course in which formal methods, etc. are taught with Maude, Elan, CafeOBJ, etc., what examples are used in education courses, etc. Work-in-progress papers present early-stage work or other types of innovative or thought-provoking work related to the topics of the workshop. The difference between work-in-progress and regular papers is that work-in-progress submissions represent work that has not reached yet a level of completion that would warrant the full refereed selection process. All submissions should be formatted according to the guidelines for Springer LNCS papers, and should not exceed 16 pages (for regular papers), 10 pages (for tool and education papers), and 8 pages (for work-in-progress presentations) excluding bibliography. Submissions must be uploaded to the following EasyChair website: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wrla2024__;!!IBzWLUs!TTi9IzUtUp-ybsM5QAoCNYk1t9v_sm9AOcG2RBnkmBq79zAVn9HzXfh4e47iNzxbmCUwSdryH5aPgtrVa_mzrDV8l2jQ_5uerJw$ .

This series of workshops aims to bring together researchers working in the communities of Constraint/Logic Programming (e.g., ICLP and CP), Program Verification (e.g., CAV, TACAS, and VMCAI), and Automated Deduction (e.g., CADE, IJCAR), on the topic of Horn clause based analysis, verification, and synthesis. Horn clauses for verification and synthesis have been advocated by these communities in different times and from different perspectives and HCVS is organized to stimulate interaction and a fruitful exchange and integration of experiences. The workshop follows previous meetings: HCVS 2023 in Paris (ETAPS 2023), France (ETAPS 2023), HCVS 2022 in Munich, Germany (ETAPS 2022), HCVS 2021, online (ETAPS 2021), HCVS 2020, online (ETAPS 2020), HCVS 2019 in Prague, Czech Republic (ETAPS 2019), HCVS 2018 in Oxford, UK (CAV, ICLP and IJCAR at FLoC 2018), HCVS 2017 in Gothenburg, Sweden (CADE 2017), HCVS 2016 in Eindhoven, The Netherlands (ETAPS 2016), HCVS 2015 in San Francisco, CA, USA (CAV 2015), and HCVS 2014 in Vienna, Austria (VSL). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the use of Horn clauses, constraints, and related formalisms in the following areas: - Analysis and verification of programs and systems of various kinds (e.g., imperative, object-oriented, functional, logic, higher-order, concurrent, transition systems, petri-nets, smart contracts) - Program synthesis - Program testing - Program transformation - Constraint solving - Type systems - Machine learning and automated reasoning - CHC encoding of analysis and verification problems - Resource analysis - Case studies and tools - Challenging problems We solicit regular papers describing theory and implementation of Horn-clause based analysis and tool descriptions. We also solicit extended abstracts describing work-in-progress, as well as presentations covering previously published results, extended abstracts of doctoral theses, and overviews of research projects that are of interest to the workshop. At least one author of each accepted paper will be required to attend the workshop to present the contribution. CHC Competition: HCVS 2024 is planning to host the 7th competition on constraint Horn clauses (CHC-COMP https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://chc-comp.github.io/__;!!IBzWLUs!WiOvSGGJ279UvQ-u9XkY3Hr0mwe5lxm8CjS1w7RzK6AekmFQeEyIN_Xv2P_9PWcUXyod7OHgBJhMdiSJvJh0p8Lifx6D51BFr7U$ ), which will compare state-of-the-art tools for CHC solving for performance and effectiveness on a set of publicly available benchmarks.

TAP promotes research in verification and formal methods that targets the interplay of static and dynamic analysis techniques with the ultimate goal of improving software and system dependability. Research in verification has seen an increase in heterogeneous techniques and a synergy between the traditionally distinct areas of dynamic and static analysis. There is growing awareness that dynamic techniques such as testing and static techniques such as proving are complementary rather than mutually exclusive. Notable examples that provide evidence for the potential of a combination of static and dynamic analysis are counterexample generation based on symbolic execution, the integration of SAT/SMT-solving in model checking, or the combination of predicate abstraction with exhaustive enumeration. The verification of systems based on machine learning spurs novel combinations of dynamic and static analyses, e.g., property verification of surrogate models that are generated through testing. TAP?s scope encompasses many aspects of verification technology, including foundational work, tool development, and empirical research. Topics of interest center around the combination of static techniques such as proving and dynamic techniques such as testing. Papers are solicited on, but not limited to, the following topics: - Verification and analysis techniques combining proofs and tests, - Static analysis of programs with the aid of dynamic techniques, - Deductive techniques supporting the automated generation of test vectors and oracles, - Deductive techniques supporting (novel) definitions of coverage criteria, - Specification inference by deductive or dynamic methods, - Testing and runtime analysis of formal specifications, - Search-based techniques for proving and testing, - Testing and Verification of systems based on machine learning, - Verification of verification tools and environments, - Applications of test and proof techniques in new domains, - Combined approaches of test and proof in the context of formal certifications (Common Criteria, CENELEC, ?), and - Case studies, tool and framework descriptions, and experience reports Authors are encouraged (but not required) to make the relevant artifacts available to the reviewers (and whenever possible publicly). Artifacts can be provided at submission time or after notification of acceptance and will go through a lightweight reviewing process, handing out availability badges.

In addition to accepting applications, I will be very happy to respond to informal enquiries about any aspect of the position, from technical ones to ones about life in a beautiful "alternative" mountain town in western North Carolina. Best wishes, -patricia -------- Applications are invited for a postdoctoral researcher position in the Computer Science Department at Appalachian State University. The position is part of an NSF-funded project on deep induction rules for advanced data types, specifically to understand the settings in which they have well-defined initial algebra semantics, to give well-defined such semantics for them in such settings, and then to use these semantics to derive deep induction rules and parametricity properties for them. A key goal is to understand what deep induction rules and parametricity for GADTs look like. Another is to understand what deep induction rules for inductive families look like --- and, in particular, how they differ from deep induction rules for corresponding GADTs. The ideal applicant will have a strong background in functional (ideally dependently-typed) programming, type theory, and category theory. However, more expertise in one area, coupled with a commitment to developing the required competencies, may compensate for less expertise in the others. The successful applicant will also be excited about working on fundamental research questions on the themes of categorical semantics of advanced data types, and deep induction rules and parametricity for them. Interests in applications and/or formalizing computer science theory in, e.g., Agda, are also very welcome. The successful hire will work on the funded project with Prof. Patricia Johann at Appalachian State University, her students, and collaborating researchers. The duration of the position is initially one year, with guaranteed continuation by mutual agreement. (Previous postdocs have continued in their positions an average of about two years.) The position will start at a mutually agreeable date, ideally on or around 1 September 2024. Compensation will be competitive and commensurate with experience. Interested persons should first contact Patricia Johann at johannp at appstate.edu, briefly outlining their academic background and research interests, and why they are interested in the position. A complete application will consist of a cover letter and CV, including contact information for three academic references. Complete applications should be made online at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://appstate.peopleadmin.com/postings/43078__;!!IBzWLUs!RT11Ev3gbZzqfSJ6F9huW4c9CVRj2wJ0vNXuEUFKx_XbQdTcXYy8cy93I3GrTiM3wNbxELBC06OoErR0JvoAKVp0mN79NBmxBA$ Review of applications will begin on 14 January 2024 and will continue until the position is filled.
