by Meng Wang 20 Apr '21

20 Apr '21

Dear Haskellers, Lenses is Bx and our own Edward Kmett will be giving the keynote! Please consider submitting. Best regards, Meng Bx 2021 - FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS ********************************************************************************** 9th International Workshop on Bidirectional Transformations (Bx 2021) as part of the STAF conference (June 21, 2021) running virtually, Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, Bergen, Norway http://bx-community.wikidot.com/bx2021:home ********************************************************************************** * Important dates: * Abstract submission: April 27, 2021 * Paper Submission: May 4, 2021 ********************************************************************************** OVERVIEW ========================================= Bidirectional transformations (bx) are a mechanism for maintaining the consistency between two or more related (and heterogeneous) sources of information (i.e., relational databases, software models and code, or any other artefacts following standard or domain-specific formats). The strongest argument in favour of bx is its ability to provide a synchronization mechanism that is guaranteed to be correct by construction. Bx has been attracting a wide range of research areas and communities, with prominent presence at top conferences in several different fields (namely databases, programming languages, software engineering, and graph transformation). Nowadays, the fast-growing complexity of software- or data- intensive systems has forced the industry and the academy to use and investigate different development techniques to manage the many different aspects of the systems. Researchers are actively investigating the use of bidirectional approaches to tackle a diverse set of challenges with various applications including model-driven software development, visualization with direct manipulation, big data, databases, domain-specific languages, serializers, and data transformation, integration and exchange. Bx 2021 is a dedicated venue for bx in all relevant fields and is part of a workshop series that was created in order to promote cross-disciplinary research and awareness in the area. As such, since its beginning in 2012, the workshop has rotated between venues in different fields. KEYNOTE ========================================= We are happy to announce our keynote speaker: Edward Kmett. TOPICS ========================================= The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners, established and new, interested in bx from different perspectives, including but not limited to: * bidirectional programming languages and frameworks * software development with bx * data and model synchronization * view updating * inter-model consistency analysis and repair * data/schema (or model/metamodel) co-evolution * coupled software/model transformations * inversion of transformations and data exchange mappings * domain-specific languages for bx * analysis and classification of requirements for bx * bridging the gap between formal concepts and application scenarios * analysis of efficiency of transformation algorithms and benchmarks * model-driven and model-based approaches * survey and comparison of bx technologies * case studies and tool support CATEGORIES OF SUBMISSIONS ========================================= Five categories of submissions are considered: * Full Research Papers (13-15 pages) - in-depth presentations of novel concepts and results - applications of bx to new domains - survey papers providing novel comparisons between existing bx technologies and approaches, case studies * Tool Papers (7-8 pages) - guideline papers presenting best practices for employing a specific bx approach (with a specific tool) - presentation of new tools or substantial improvements to existing ones - qualitative and/or quantitative comparisons of applying different bx approaches and tools * Experience Report (7-8 pages) - sharing experiences and lessons learned with bx tools/frameworks/languages - how bx is used in (research/industrial/educational) projects * Short Papers (5 pages) - work in progress - small focused contributions - position papers and research perspectives - critical questions and challenges for bx * Talk Proposals (2 pages) - proposed lectures about topics of interest for bx - existing work representing relevant contributions for bx - promising contributions that are not mature enough to be proposed as papers of the other categories If your submission is not a Full Research Paper, please include the intended submission category in the Title field of EasyChair’s submission form. Tool papers, experience reports and short papers will be mapped to the short paper category in CEUR (having between 5-9 standard pages, 1 standard page = 2500 characters), whereas full research papers will be mapped to the regular paper category in CEUR (having at least 10 standard pages). The bibliography is excluded from the page limits. All papers are expected to be self-contained and well-written. Tool papers are not expected to present novel scientific results, but to document artifacts of interest and share bx experience/best practices with the community. Experience papers are expected to report on lessons learnt from applying bx approaches, languages, tools, and theories to practical application case studies. Extended abstracts should primarily provoke interesting discussion at the workshop and will not be held to the same standard of maturity as regular papers; short papers contain focused results, positions or perspectives that can be presented in full in just a few pages, and that correspondingly contain fewer results and that therefore might not be competitive in the full paper category. Talk proposals are expected to present work that is of particular interest to the community and worth a talk slot at the workshop. We strongly encourage authors to ensure that any (variants of) examples are present in the bx example repository at the time of submission, and, for tool papers, to allow for reproducibility with minimal effort, either via a virtual machine (e.g., via Share) or a dedicated website with relevant artifacts and tool access. All submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. If a submission is accepted, at least one author is expected to participate in the workshop to present it. Authors of accepted tool paper submissions are also expected to be available to demonstrate their tool at the event. PROCEEDINGS ========================================= The workshop proceedings (in a STAF 2021 joint volume for workshops), including all accepted papers (except talk proposals), shall be submitted after the conference to CEUR-WS.org for online publication. Pre-prints of all papers will be available via the workshop website at the beginning of the conference. Papers must follow the CEUR one column style available at: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip or https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/template-for-submissions-to-ceur-w… and must be submitted via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bx2021 Please also ensure that your submission is legible when printed on a black and white printer. In particular, please check that colors remain distinct and font sizes are legible. Submissions not complying with the above guidelines may be excluded from the reviewing process without further notice. IMPORTANT DATES ========================================= Abstract submission: April 27, 2021 Paper submission: May 4, 2021 Author notification: May 25, 2021 Early registration: May 27, 2021 Workshop: June 21, 2021 PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS ========================================= The workshop is co-organized by Meng Wang (University of Bristol, UK) and Leen Lambers (Hasso Plattner Institute at the University of Potsdam, Germany).

CFP SETTA 2021 - Symposiumon Dependable Software Engineering: Theories, Tools and Applications
by songfu1983＠shanghaitech.edu.cn 15 Apr '21

15 Apr '21

(apologies for cross-posting) ======================================== SETTA 2021: Symposium on Dependable Software Engineering: Theories, Tools and Applications Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China, November 25-27, 2021 Submission deadline: July 23rd, 2021 Conference website: https://lcs.ios.ac.cn/setta2021/ Colocated with FM'2021 ======================================== ************************ ABOUT SETTA 2021 ************************ The Symposium on Dependable Software Engineering: Theories, Tools and Applications (SETTA) 2021 will be held in Beijing, China on November 25-27, 2021, co-located with FM'2021. Formal methods emerged as an important area in computer science and software engineering about half a century ago. An international community is formed researching, developing and teaching formal theories, techniques and tools for software modeling, specification, design and verification. However, the impact of formal methods on the quality improvement of software systems in practice is lagging behind. This is for instance reflected by the challenges in applying formal techniques and tools to engineering large-scale systems such as Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), Internet-of-Things (IoT), Enterprise Systems, Cloud-Based Systems, and so forth. The purpose of the SETTA symposium is to bring international researchers together to exchange research results and ideas on bridging the gap between formal methods and software engineering. The interaction with the Chinese computer science and software engineering community is a central focus point. The aim is to show research interests and results from different groups so as to initiate interest-driven research collaboration. The SETTA symposium is aiming at academic excellence and its objective is to become a flagship conference on formal software engineering in China. To achieve these goals and contribute to the sustainability of the formal methods research, it is important for the symposium to attract young researchers into the community. Thus, this symposium encourages in particular the participation of young researchers and students. This year, SETTA welcomes submissions to the following two tracks: Journal First Papers and Research Papers. All submissions must be in the PDF format. Papers should be written in English. Submitted papers must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Accepted papers for both tracks must be presented at the conference. Latest News: A special issue for the Elsevier Journal of Systems Architecture (JSA) has been confirmed. Authors of selected papers from SETTA2021 will be invited to submit an extended version of their SETTA2021 paper to this special issue. ************************ LIST OF TOPICS ************************ Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Requirements specification and analysis - Formalisms for modeling, design and implementation - Model checking, theorem proving, and decision procedures - Scalable approaches to formal system analysis - Formal approaches to simulation, run-time verification, and testing - Integration of formal methods into software engineering practice - Contract-based engineering of components, systems, and systems of systems - Formal and engineering aspects of software evolution and maintenance - Parallel and multicore programming - Embedded, real-time, hybrid, probabilistic, and cyber-physical systems - Mixed-critical applications and systems - Formal aspects of service-oriented and cloud computing - Safety, reliability, robustness, and fault-tolerance - Dependability of smart software and systems - Empirical analysis techniques and integration with formal methods - Applications and industrial experience reports - Software tools to assist the construction or analysis of software systems ************************ RESEARCH PAPERS TRACK ************************ Research papers will be published in the SETTA 2021 proceedings as a volume in Springer's LNCS series. Papers should be submitted electronically through the EasyChair submission web page <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=setta2021>. ------------------------ Important Dates ------------------------ Abstract & Paper Submission: July 23, 2021 (AoE) Notification to authors: September 3, 2021 (AoE) Camera-ready versions: September 20, 2021 (AoE) Conference date: November 25-27, 2021 ------------------------ Submission Guidelines ------------------------ Authors are invited to submit papers on original research, industrial applications, or position papers proposing challenges in fundamental research and technology. The latter two types of submissions are expected to contribute to the development of formal methods and applications thereof in software engineering. This is done by either substantiating the advantages of integrating formal methods into the development cycle or through delineating the need for research by demonstrating weaknesses of existing technologies, especially when addressing new application domains. Submissions can take the form of either regular or short papers. Regular papers should not exceed 16 pages (excluding references) in LNCS format. Short papers can discuss ongoing research at an early stage, including PhD projects.
