Advantages, when developing software in Haskell, are faster development with fewer bugs. Disadvantages are: the compiled programs are slower then when written in C and the garbage collection of a Haskell program (when compiled with GHC) might sometimes cause delays in screen updates.

JFP Issue on Dependently typed programming: second call for papers
by Wouter Swierstra 30 Nov '15

30 Nov '15

----------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS JFP Special Issue on Dependently typed Programming Submission Deadline: January 11th, 2016 Expected Publication Date: Late 2016 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Scope Over the last years there has been sustained interest in functional programming languages with dependent types. The foundations of dependently typed programming can be traced back to work by Martin-Löf from the 1970s. More recently, the increased popularity of systems such as Agda, Coq, Idris, and many others, reflects the growing momentum in this research area. The Journal of Functional Programming will devote a special issue to programming with dependent types. The purpose of this special issue is to present the state of the art in dependently typed programming languages and their applications. We would like to invite authors to submit papers on all topics relating to programming languages with dependent types, including theory, applications, and language design and implementation. We encourage the submission of consolidated, condensed and extended work based on prior conference and workshop publications. # Submission Details Manuscripts should be submitted in PDF format through the Journal of Functional Programming's website: https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cup/jfp_submit Further submission and formatting details can be found on the JFP website. Please submit your paper under the 'DTP Special issue' category.

NFM 2016 - Call For Papers The 8th NASA Formal Methods Symposium ------------------------------------- http://crisys.cs.umn.edu/nfm2016 June 07 - June 09 2016 McNamara Alumni Center University of Minnesota 200 Oak Street S.E., Minneapolis, MN 55455 Theme of the Symposium ---------------------- The widespread use and increasing complexity of mission-critical and safety-critical systems at NASA and the aerospace industry requires advanced techniques that address their specification, design, verification, validation, and certification requirements. The NASA Formal Methods Symposium is a forum to foster collaboration between theoreticians and practitioners from NASA, academia, and the industry, with the goal of identifying challenges and providing solutions towards achieving assurance for such critical systems. New developments and emerging applications like autonomous on-board software for Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), UAS Traffic Management (UTM), advanced separation assurance algorithms for aircraft, and the need for system-wide fault detection, diagnosis, and prognostics provide new challenges for system specification, development, and verification approaches. Similar challenges need to be addressed during development and deployment of on-board software for spacecraft ranging from small and inexpensive CubeSat systems to manned spacecraft like Orion, as well as for ground systems. The focus of the symposium will be on formal techniques and other approaches for software assurance, their theory, current capabilities and limitations, as well as their potential application to aerospace, robotics, and other NASA-relevant safety-critical systems during all stages of the software life-cycle. Topics of interest include but are not limited to ------------------------------------------------- * Model checking * Theorem proving * SAT and SMT solving * Symbolic execution * Static analysis * Model-based development * Runtime verification * Software and system testing * Safety assurance * Fault tolerance * Compositional verification * Security and intrusion detection * Design for verification and correct-by-design techniques * Techniques for scaling formal methods * Applications of formal methods in the development of: * autonomous systems * safety-critical artificial intelligence systems * cyber-physical, embedded, and hybrid systems * fault-detection, diagnostics, and prognostics systems * Use of formal methods in: * assurance cases * human-machine interaction analysis * requirements generation, specification, and validation * automated testing and verification Important Dates --------------- - Paper Submission: 2/19/2016 - Paper Notifications: 4/8/2016 - Camera-ready Papers: 4/27/2016 - Symposium: 6/7 - 6/9/2016 Location -------- The symposium will take place at McNamara Alumni Center, University of Minnesota. Registration is required but is free of charge. Submission Details ------------------ There are two categories of submissions: 1. Regular papers describing fully developed work and complete results (maximum 15 pages) 2. Short papers on tools, experience reports, or work in progress with preliminary results (maximum 6 pages) All papers must be in English and describe original work that has not been published or submitted elsewhere. All submissions will be fully reviewed by at least three members of the Program Committee. Papers will appear in a volume of Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS), and must use LNCS style formatting. Papers must be submitted in PDF format at the EasyChair submission site: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=nfm2016 Authors of selected best papers may be invited to submit an extended version to a special issue of the Journal of Automated Reasoning (Springer).
