WPTE 2022 (affiliated to FSCD 2022, part of FLoC 2022, Haifa, Israel) 9th International Workshop on Rewriting Techniques for Program Transformations and Evaluation (July 31st, 2022) Web: https://wpte2022.github.io/ Submit: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wpte2022 Deadline: 26 April 2022 (abstract) / 3 May 2022 (paper) Publication: post-proceedings as a special issue in the Journal of Logical and Algebraic Methods in Programming for selected papers --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The aim of WPTE is to bring together the researchers working on program transformations, evaluation, and operationally based programming language semantics, using rewriting methods, in order to share the techniques and recent developments and to exchange ideas to encourage further activation of research in this area. List of Topics --------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Correctness of program transformations, optimizations and translations. * Program transformations for proving termination, confluence, and other properties. * Correctness of evaluation strategies. * Operational semantics of programs, operationally-based program equivalences such as contextual equivalences and bisimulations. * Cost-models for arguing about the optimizing power of transformations and the costs of evaluation. * Program transformations for verification and theorem proving purposes. * Translation, simulation, equivalence of programs with different formalisms, and evaluation strategies. * Program transformations for applying rewriting techniques to programs in specific programming languages. * Program transformations for program inversions and program synthesis. * Program transformation and evaluation for Haskell and rewriting. Submission Guidelines --------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the paper submission deadline an extended abstract of at most 10 pages is required. The extended abstract may present original work, but also work in progress. Based on the submissions the program committee will select the presentations for the workshop. All selected contributions will be included in the informal proceedings distributed to the workshop participants. One author of each accepted extended abstract is expected to present it at the workshop. Submissions must be prepared in LaTeX using the EPTCS macro package. All submissions will be electronic viahttps://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wpte2022. Formal Proceedings --------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the 2020 and 2021 editions, WPTE post-proceedings of selected papers are scheduled to be published in JLAMP special issues. We are delighted that the 2022 workshop will continue this tradition. Based on the quality of the submission and the presentation, we will invite a selection of papers to be published in extended form in a special issue of the Journal of Logical and Algebraic Methods in Programming.
