CALL FOR PAPERS The 5th International Workshop on Agent-based Modeling and Applications with SARL (SARL-21) http://www.ciad-lab.fr/the-5nd-international-workshop-on-agent-based-modeli… ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In conjunction with * The 12th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks, and Technologies (ANT 2021) http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-21/ * The 3rd European Forum for the SARL Users and Developers (EuSarlCon-21) http://www.ciad-lab.fr/the-3rd-european-forum-for-the-sarl-users-and-develo… March 23 - 26, 2021, Warsaw, Poland. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Description =========== Research on Agents and Multi-Agent Systems has matured during the last decade and many effective applications of this technology are now deployed. SARL-21 provides an international forum to present and discuss the latest scientific developments and their effective applications, to assess the impact of the approach, and to facilitate technology transfer. SARL workshop was born with the SARL agent programming language, but the scientific results presented in SARL-20 are not restricted to SARL; other languages and agent platforms may be presented. SARL aims at providing the fundamental abstractions for dealing with concurrency, distribution, interaction, decentralization, reactivity, autonomy and dynamic reconfiguration. These high-level features are now considered as the major requirements for an easy and practical implementation of modern complex software applications. We are convinced that the agent-oriented paradigm holds the keys to effectively meet these features. Considering the variety of existing approaches and meta-models in the field of agent-oriented engineering and more generally multi-agent systems, our approach remains as generic as possible and highly extensible to easily integrate new concepts and features. The goal of SARL-21 is to provide a place where the different points of view on the modeling and the simulation with agent platforms and agent programming languages may be discussed. SARL-21 will be held in Warsaw, Poland (March 23 - 26, 2021) in conjunction with the 12th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks, and Technologies (ANT 2021) and the European SarlCon 2021. Topics ====== The main topics of the SARL-21 workshop are (but not restricted to): * Methods and Models: * Agent based Modeling and Simulation; * Agent programming language; * Agent based Simulation; * Agent oriented analysis and design methods; * Ontologies and theories about large urban systems; * Formal models of agent-based simulation; * Organizational models. * Applications: * Traffic/Transport; * Crowds; * Smart grids and smart buildings; * Land-Use; * Energy. Important Dates =============== * Submission deadline: November 1, 2020 * Notification: December 30, 2020 * Final date for camera-ready copy: January 27, 2021 * Workshop: March 23-26, 2021 Submission ========== All workshop accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings published by Elsevier Science in the open-access Procedia Computer Science series on-line. The submitted paper must be formatted according to the guidelines of Procedia Computer Science, Elsevier. You are invited to submit full length papers in PDF format on EasyChair, not exceeding 6 pages in length, in single-column format including diagrams and references while following the Procedia Computer Science guidelines. Papers that do not follow these guidelines may be rejected without consideration of their merits. All papers will be reviewed by at least two Program Committee members on the basis of technical quality, originality, clarity, and relevance to the track topics listed above. At least one author of each paper must attend the workshop to present the paper. Workshop Chairs =============== * Stéphane GALLAND (Belfort-Montbeliard University of Technology, France) * Sebastian RODRIGUEZ (Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Australia) Publicity Chairs ================ Yazan MUALLA (Belfort-Montbeliard University of Technology, France) Registration ============ Please visit the ANT21 Registration Page for more information: http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-21/#registration Venue, Accommodation & Visa Requirements ======================================== Please visit the ANT21 Venue & Accommodation Page for more information: http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-21/#conferenceVenue

[CfP] PADL 2021: Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages
by Jose F. Morales 30 Sep '20

30 Sep '20

Call for Papers =============== 23rd International Symposium on Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages (PADL 2021) https://popl21.sigplan.org/home/PADL-2021 Copenhagen, Denmark 18-19th January 2021 Co-located with POPL 2021 Conference Description ---------------------- The paradigm of declarative languages encompasses several well-established classes of programming languages, namely: functional, logic, and constraint programming languages. These languages have been 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 have opened up new application areas. At the same time, applications of declarative languages to novel problems raise numerous interesting research issues. Well-known questions include 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 for software engineering * Evaluation of implementation techniques on practical applications * Practical experiences and industrial applications * Novel uses of declarative languages in the classroom * Practical languages and extensions such as probabilistic and reactive languages PADL 2021 especially welcomes new ideas and approaches pertaining 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, computational creativas well as verification and theorem proving methods that rely on declarative languages. Submissions ----------- PADL solicits three kinds of submission, in Springer LNCS format: * 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. Work that already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshops proceedings may be submitted but the authors should notify the program chair about the place in which it has previously appeared. Important dates --------------- * Deadline: 9th October 2020 (AoE) * Notification: 6th November 2020 * Symposium: 18-19th January 2021 Submission is via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=padl2021 COVID-19 -------- PADL is co-located with POPL, which will take place January 17-22, 2021, as a physical, virtual, or hybrid physical/virtual meeting. We will be monitoring the Covid-19 situation and will announce a decision on the nature of the meeting in time which will follow suit with POPL. 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, in the journal Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP) https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/theory-and-practice-of-logic-progra…, and for papers related to functional programming, in Journal of Functional Programming (JFP) https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/journal-of-functional-programming. The extended journal submissions should include roughly 30% more content including, for example, 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 such like. These submissions will then be subject to peer review by the journal, although with the aim of a swifter review process by reusing original reviews from PADL.

[ANNOUNCE] Glasgow Haskell Compiler 9.0.1-alpha1 released
by Ben Gamari 29 Sep '20

29 Sep '20

Hello all, The GHC team is very pleased to announce the availability of the first alpha release in the GHC 9.0 series. Source and binary distributions are available at the usual place: https://downloads.haskell.org/ghc/9.0.1-alpha1/ This first alpha comes quite a bit later than expected. However, we have done a significant amount of testing on this pre-release and therefore hope to be able to move forward quickly with a release candidate next week and with a final release in mid-October. GHC 9.0.1 will bring a number of new features: * A first cut of the new LinearTypes language extension [1], allowing use of linear function syntax and linear record fields. * A new bignum library (ghc-bignum), allowing GHC to be more easily used with integer libraries other than GMP. * Improvements in code generation, resulting in considerable performance improvements in some programs. * Improvements in pattern-match checking, allowing more precise detection of redundant cases and reduced compilation time. * Implementation of the "simplified subsumption" proposal [2] simplifying the type system and paving the way for QuickLook impredicativity in GHC 9.2. * Implementation of the QualifiedDo extension [3], allowing more convenient overloading of `do` syntax. * Improvements in compilation time. And many more. See the release notes [4] for a full accounting of the changes in this release. Do note that there are a few things that we expect will change before the final release: * We expect to sort out a notarization workflow for Apple Darwin, allowing our binary distributions to be used on macOS Catalina without hassle. Until this has been sorted out Catalina users can exempt the current macOS binary distribution from the notarization requirement themselves by running `xattr -cr .` on the unpacked tree before running `make install`. * We will likely transition the Alpine binary distribution to be fully statically-linked, providing a convenient, distribution-independent packaging option for Linux users. * We will be merging a robust solution for #17760 which will introduce a new primitive, `keepAlive#`, to the `base` library, subsuming most uses of `touch#`. As always, do test this release and open tickets for whatever issues you encounter. To help with this, we will be publishing a blog post describing use of our new `head.hackage` infrastructure to ease testing of larger projects with Hackage dependencies later this week. Cheers, - Ben [1] https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0111-l… [2] https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0287-s… [3] https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0216-q… [4] https://downloads.haskell.org/ghc/9.0.1-alpha1/docs/html/users_guide/9.0.1-…
