Haskell Implementors' Workshop Call for Talks
by Richard Eisenberg 04 Jul '17

04 Jul '17

Call for Contributions ACM SIGPLAN Haskell Implementors' Workshop http://icfp17.sigplan.org/track/hiw-2017 Oxford, UK, 9 September, 2017 Co-located with ICFP 2017 http://www.icfpconference.org/icfp2017/ Important dates --------------- Proposal Deadline: Thursday, 6 July, 2017 Notification: Thursday, 20 July, 2017 Workshop: Saturday, 9 September, 2017 The 9th Haskell Implementors' Workshop is to be held alongside ICFP 2017 this year in Oxford. It is a forum for people involved in the design and development of Haskell implementations, tools, libraries, and supporting infrastructure, to share their work and discuss future directions and collaborations with others. Talks and/or demos are proposed by submitting an abstract, and selected by a small program committee. There will be no published proceedings. The workshop will be informal and interactive, with open spaces in the timetable and room for ad-hoc discussion, demos, and impromptu short talks. Scope and target audience ------------------------- It is important to distinguish the Haskell Implementors' Workshop from the Haskell Symposium which is also co-located with ICFP 2017. The Haskell Symposium is for the publication of Haskell-related research. In contrast, the Haskell Implementors' Workshop will have no proceedings -- although we will aim to make talk videos, slides and presented data available with the consent of the speakers. The Implementors' Workshop is an ideal place to describe a Haskell extension, describe works-in-progress, demo a new Haskell-related tool, or even propose future lines of Haskell development. Members of the wider Haskell community encouraged to attend the workshop -- we need your feedback to keep the Haskell ecosystem thriving. Students working with Haskell are specially encouraged to share their work. The scope covers any of the following topics. There may be some topics that people feel we've missed, so by all means submit a proposal even if it doesn't fit exactly into one of these buckets: * Compilation techniques * Language features and extensions * Type system implementation * Concurrency and parallelism: language design and implementation * Performance, optimisation and benchmarking * Virtual machines and run-time systems * Libraries and tools for development or deployment Talks ----- We invite proposals from potential speakers for talks and demonstrations. We are aiming for 20-minute talks with 5 minutes for questions and changeovers. We want to hear from people writing compilers, tools, or libraries, people with cool ideas for directions in which we should take the platform, proposals for new features to be implemented, and half-baked crazy ideas. Please submit a talk title and abstract of no more than 300 words. Submissions should be made via HotCRP. The website is: https://icfp-hiw17.hotcrp.com/ We will also have a lightning talks session which will be organised on the day. These talks will be 5-10 minutes, depending on available time. Suggested topics for lightning talks are to present a single idea, a work-in-progress project, a problem to intrigue and perplex Haskell implementors, or simply to ask for feedback and collaborators. Program Committee ----------------- * Richard A. Eisenberg -- chair (Bryn Mawr College) * Adam Gundry (Well-Typed) * Bartosz Nitka (Facebook) * Wren Romano (X, formerly Google[x]) * Alejandro Serrano Mena (Utrecht University) * Jan Stolarek (University of Edinburgh) Contact ------- * Richard A.

RV-CuBES Deadline Extension
by Klaus Havelund 01 Jul '17

01 Jul '17

RV-CuBESAn International Workshop on Competitions, Usability, Benchmarks, Evaluation, and Standardisation for Runtime Verification ToolsHeld in conjunction with the 17th International Conference on Runtime Verification (RV 2017) http://rv2017.cs.manchester.ac.uk/rv-cubes/ The goal of this workshop is to provide a venue to discuss ongoing efforts to improve how we evaluate and compare tools for runtime verification. This workshop invites submissions that contribute to this discussion (see below). The workshop replaces the Runtime Verification Competition this year, giving an opportunity for reflection and planning for the future. *HIGHLIGHTS* - We invite two kinds of submissions: tool overview papers of *existing* tools and position papers - Attendance at the workshop *is not compulsory* for submission, but encouraged - The workshop will be integrated into RV 2017 to engage with the wider RV community *BACKGROUND* Over the last three years, beginning in 2014, the Competition on Runtime Verification (CRV) has compared 14 different runtime verification tools using over 100 different benchmarks. It has motivated the development of new tools and extensions of existing ones. Thanks to the time and effort of the various organisers and participants it has successfully provided a platform to discuss how we evaluate and compare our tools. However, we are aware that the competition has not served all members of the community and required significant effort from its participants and therefore we have decided not to run the competition in the same form in 2017. This workshop has two aims. - Firstly, to kickstart an online repository of tool descriptions that focus on usability, rather than implementation. Much effort within Runtime Verification is spent developing tools. The planned repository will help advertise these tools within and beyond the community and to document their existence. To this end, this workshop invites tool overview papers (details below) that present an opportunity to demonstrate the diverse range of available RV tools and to advertise their advanced features and capabilities. - Secondly, to provide a forum in which the future of the competition, and wider efforts to improve how we evaluate RV tools, can be discussed in a structured and informed way. There have been various informal discussions at the previous three RV conferences and in other settings. By inviting position papers (details below) this workshop aims to establish the issues and possible directions before holding a structured panel session during RV 2017. *RELATION TO RV 2017* There is no overlap in scope between this workshop and RV 2017. Any papers containing original technical developments should be submitted to RV 2017 rather than this workshop as the workshop focuses on tool reviews (containing existing work) and position statements. If there is any uncertainty please contact the workshop chairs. The workshop will be integrated into RV 2017. The workshop activities will include a poster presentation session and a panel decision, both of which will be scheduled within the main conference program. A consequence of this is that there will be no separate registration for the workshop. To attend the workshop activities it will be necessary to attend RV 2017. Although, attendance is not a requirement for submission. *SUBMISSIONS* We invite two forms of submission: Tool Overview papers and Position papers. All submissions will be subject to a lightweight review by the PC to ensure a reasonable standard and to provide constructive feedback to improve the quality of the submission. *Tool Overview Papers* These should describe an existing tool using a minimum of 5 pages. The paper should at least describe how to obtain the tool, the RV problem the tool is aiming to solve, the key defining features of the tool and relevant references. Additionally, we might expect it to include some of the following: - The history of the tool - High-level overviews of key aspect such as the input language or architecture from a user’s perspective - Usability details undocumented elsewhere - Examples demonstrating key features - Details of case studies or applications to real world problems - Discussion of features particular to the tool - Summaries (rather than detailed tables) of experimental results - Analysis of the kinds of problem the tool is suited for and those it is less-well suited for Ideally, the tool and related material (e.g. benchmarks) will be available online and linked to in the submission. The paper should not cover any significant new contributions (these can be submitted as tool papers to RV 2017) and should rely on previous research and tool papers to provide further details. Note that there is no upper page limit however the number of pages used should reflect the level of detail given. Submissions of 2 pages giving minimal details would be suitable in a situation where the tool is well documented elsewhere but an entry in the repository is still desired. All accepted submissions will be invited for presentation at a special Poster session during RV 2017. *Position papers* Initial submissions should use a minimum of 2 pages to explore a particular position related to the evaluation, comparison or standardisation of Runtime Verification tools (and benchmarks). Topics may include, but are not limited to: - What should a RV benchmark look like? - Can we have a common specification language for RV? If so, what should it look like? - Is execution time the most important performance criteria? What might be more important? - How can we evaluate hardware monitoring tools? - What are we doing wrong in evaluation? Can we fix this? - What can be borrowed form other communities? A selection of position papers will be used to structure a discussion panel to be held at RV 2017. Again, there is no upper page limit however the number of pages used should reflect the level of detail given. There will be an opportunity to update the paper based on discussions before inclusion in post-proceedings (see below). *Publishing and Submission* Contributions will be published as a post-proceedings volume in the Open-Access Scopus-Indexed EasyChair Kalpa <http://www.easychair.org/publications/Kalpa>Series. To be eligible for inclusion in the post-proceedings, papers should be at least 5 pages. Please see the relevant information for authors <http://www.easychair.org/publications/for_authors> when preparing your paper. Please submit contributions to the following EasyChair page. https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rvcubes2017 *DATES* - Submission Deadline 1 July 2017 - Abstracts: 8 July 2017 - Final Submission: 15 July 2017 - Notification 1 August 2017 - Workshop at RV 2017 13-16 September 2017 - Post-proceedings deadline 14 October 2017 *ORGANISATION* For local and general organisation please see RV 2017. *Program Committee Chairs* Giles Reger, University of Manchester, UK Klaus Havelund, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, USA *Program Committee* Ezio Bartocci, TU Wien, Austria Domenico Bianculli, SnT Centre – University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg Borzoo Bonakdarpour, McMaster University, Cananda Christian Colombo, University of Malta, Malta Ylies Falcone, Univ.

FLOPS2018: First CFP
by Martin Sulzmann 30 Jun '17

30 Jun '17

FIRST Call For Papers FLOPS 2018: 14th International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming 9-11 May, 2018, Nagoya, Japan http://www.sqlab.jp/FLOPS2018/ Writing down detailed computational steps is not the only way of programming. The alternative, being used increasingly in practice, is to start by writing down the desired properties of the result. The computational steps are then (semi-)automatically derived from these higher-level specifications. Examples of this declarative style include functional and logic programming, program transformation and re-writing, and extracting programs from proofs of their correctness. FLOPS aims to bring together practitioners, researchers and implementors of the declarative programming, to discuss mutually interesting results and common problems: theoretical advances, their implementations in language systems and tools, and applications of these systems in practice. 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. Scope FLOPS solicits original papers in all areas of the declarative programming: * functional, logic, functional-logic programming, re-writing systems, formal methods and model checking, program transformations and program refinements, developing programs with the help of theorem provers or SAT/SMT solvers; * foundations, language design, implementation issues (compilation techniques, memory management, run-time systems), applications and case studies. FLOPS promotes cross-fertilization among different styles of declarative programming. Therefore, submissions must be written to be understandable by the wide audience of declarative programmers and researchers. Submission of system descriptions and declarative pearls are especially encouraged. 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 contain a link to 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. See also ACM SIGPLAN Republication Policy. Proceedings The proceedings will be published by Springer International Publishing in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, as a printed volume as well as online in the digital library SpringerLink. Post-proceedings: The authors of 4-7 best papers will be invited to submit the extended version of their FLOPS paper to a special issue of the journal Science of Computer Programming (SCP). Important dates 13 November 2017 (any time zone): Abstract Submission 20 November 2017 (any time zone): Submission deadline 15 January 2018: Author notification 9-11 May 2018: FLOPS Symposium Invited Talks To be announced Submission Submissions must be written in English and can be up to 15 pages long including references, though pearls are typically shorter. The formatting has to conform to Springer's guidelines. Regular research papers should be supported by proofs and/or experimental results. In case of lack of space, this supporting information should be made accessible otherwise (e.g., a link to a Web page, or an appendix). Papers should be submitted electronically at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=flops2018 Program Committee Andreas Rossberg Google, Germany Atsushi Ohori Tohoku University, Japan Bruno C. D. S.
