by Thorsten Wissmann 19 Dec '22

19 Dec '22

========================================================= CALL FOR PAPERS: CALCO 2023 10th International Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science June 19-22, 2023 Bloomington, Indiana (USA) and online Co-located with MFPS XXXIX https://coalg.org/calco-mfps-2023/ ========================================================== Paper submission: March 8, 2023 (AoE) Author notification: Apr 28, 2023 (AoE) Final version due: May 19, 2023 ========================================================== 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://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=calco2023 The format for all submissions is specified by LIPIcs. Please use the latest version of the style: http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/instructions-for-authors/ 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 (http://www.lmcs-online.org) 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. Each submission will be evaluated by at least two reviewers. 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. Each submission will be evaluated by at least two reviewers. 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. Each submission will be evaluated by at least three reviewers, and one or more of the reviewers will be asked to download and use the tool. 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. Programme Committee ------------------- * Carlos Gustavo Lopez Pombo (University of Buenos Aires) * Andreas Abel (Gothenburg University) * Vincenzo Ciancia (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Pisa) * Patricia Johann (Appalachian State University) * Ionut Tutu (Simion Stoilow Institute of Mathematics of the Romanian Academy) * Martin Escardo (University of Birmingham) * Tarmo Uustalu (Reykjavik University) * Giorgio Bacci (Aalborg University) * Thorsten Wißmann (Radboud University Nijmegen) * Fabio Gadducci (University of Pisa) * Shin-Ya Katsumata (National Institute of Informatics, Tokyo) * Holger Giese (Hasso Plattner Institute at the University of Potsdam) * Peter Ölveczky (University of Oslo) * Michael Johnson (Macquarie University) * Nicolas Behr (CNRS Université Paris Cité) * Henning Urbat (FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg) * Valentina Castiglioni (Reykjavik University) * Fernando Orejas (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya) * Mehrnoosh Sadrzadeh (University College London) * Georgiana Caltais (University of Twente) * Sławomir Lasota (University of Warsaw) * Aleks Kissinger (University of Oxford) * Thomas Colcombet (CNRS, IRIF, Université de Paris) * Sandra Kiefer (Max Planck Institute for Software Systems) * Peter Selinger (Dalhousie University) * Natasha Alechina (Utrecht University) * Sara Kalvala (University of Warwick) Chairs ------ Paolo Baldan (University of Padua) Valeria de Paiva (Topos Institute, Berkeley) Organiser --------- * Larry Moss (local) (Indiana University)

19 Dec '22

10th Workshop on Horn Clauses for Verification and Synthesis (HCVS) Co-located with ETAPS 2023 23rd April 2023 - Paris, France https://www.sci.unich.it/hcvs23/ Important dates: - Paper submission deadline: Feb 22, 2023 - Paper notification: Mar 22, 2023 - Workshop: Apr 23, 2023 Many Program Verification and Synthesis problems of interest can be modeled directly using Horn clauses and many recent advances in the CLP and CAV communities have centered around efficiently solving problems presented as Horn clauses. 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://chc-comp.github.io/ ), 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. Program Chairs: David Monniaux, VERIMAG, CNRS, Grenoble, France José F. Morales, IMDEA Software, Madrid, Spain Program Committee: TBA Submission has to be done in one of the following formats: - Regular papers (up to 12 pages plus bibliography in EPTCS (http://www.eptcs.org/) format), which should present previously unpublished work (completed or in progress), including descriptions of research, tools, and applications. - Tool papers (up to 4 pages in EPTCS format), including the papers written by the CHC-COMP participants, which can outline the theoretical framework, the architecture, the usage, and experiments of the tool. - Extended abstracts (up to 3 pages in EPTCS format), which describe work in progress or aim to initiate discussions. - **Presentation-only papers**, i.e., papers already submitted or presented at a conference or another workshop. Such papers can be submitted in any format, and will not be included in the workshop post-proceedings. - Posters that are of interest to the workshop All submitted papers will be refereed by the program committee and will be selected for inclusion in accordance with the referee reports. Accepted regular papers and extended abstracts will be published electronically as a volume in the Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science (EPTCS) series, see http://www.eptcs.org/ (provided that enough regular papers are accepted). The publication of a paper is not intended to preclude later publication. Full versions of extended abstracts published in EPTCS, or substantial revisions, may later be published elsewhere. Papers must be submitted through the EasyChair system using the web page: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=hcvs2023
