STACS 2023 - second call for papers
by Anuj Dawar 31 Aug '22

31 Aug '22

STACS 2023 - Call for Papers ----------------------- The 40th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science is planned to take place from 7 March to 10 March 2023 in Hamburg, Germany. For the first time, STACS 2023 will consist of two tracks, A and B, to facilitate the work of the program committee(s). Track A is dedicated to algorithms and data structures, complexity and games. Track B will cover automata, logic, semantics and theory of programming. LISTS OF TOPICS Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original and unpublished research on theoretical aspects of computer science. Typical areas include: Track A: algorithms and data structures, including: design of parallel, distributed, approximation, parameterized and randomized algorithms; analysis of algorithms and combinatorics of data structures; computational geometry, cryptography, algorithms for machine learning, algorithmic game theory, quantum algorithms complexity, including: computational and structural complexity theory, parameterized complexity, randomness in computation Track B: automata and formal languages, including: automata theory, games, algebraic and categorical methods, coding theory, models of computation, computability logic in computer science, including: finite model theory, database theory, semantics, type systems, program analysis, specification & verification, rewriting and deduction, learning theory, logical aspects of complexity These lists are not exhaustive. In particular, both tracks also welcome submissions about current challenges. PROGRAM COMMITTEE CHAIRS Track A: - Petra Berenbrink (Universität Hamburg, Germany) - Mamadou Moustapha Kanté (Université Clermont Auvergne, France) Track B: - Patricia Bouyer-Decitre (CNRS, France) - Anuj Dawar (University of Cambridge, UK) SUBMISSIONS Submissions will be through EasyChair (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=stacs23). Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract or full paper with at most 12 pages (excluding the title page and the references section) to the appropriate track. The title page consists of the title of the paper and the abstract, but *no* author information. The first section of the paper should start on the next page. The PCs reserve the right to reassign a paper to a different track. The usage of pdflatex and the LIPIcs style file are mandatory no changes to font size, page geometry, etc. are permitted (see http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics <http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics>) . Submissions not in the correct format or submitted after the deadline will not be considered. The paper should contain a succinct statement of the issues and of their motivation, a summary of the main results, and a brief explanation of their significance, accessible to non-specialist readers. Proofs omitted due to space constraints must be put into an appendix, to be read by the program committee members at their discretion. Simultaneous submission to other conferences with published proceedings or to journals is not allowed. PC members are excluded from submitting. As in the previous two years, STACS 2023 will employ a lightweight double-blind reviewing process: submissions should not reveal the identity of the authors in any way. The purpose of the double-blind reviewing is to help PC members and external reviewers come to an initial judgment about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the paper more difficult. In particular, important references should not be omitted or anonymized. In addition, authors should feel free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their paper as they normally would. For example, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web, submit them to arXiv, and give talks on their research ideas. There will be a rebuttal period for authors, see below for the dates. Authors will receive the reviews of their submissions (via EasyChair) and have three days to submit rebuttals (via EasyChair). These rebuttals become part of the PC discussions, but entail no specific responses. At least one author of each accepted paper is expected to register at the conference. For authors who cannot present their paper in person a possibility for remote presentation will be offered. Note that at least one of the authors will have to register for STACS'23 at the cost of around 400€. PROCEEDINGS Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of the symposium. As usual, these proceedings will appear in the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) series, based at Schloss Dagstuhl. This guarantees perennial, free and easy electronic access, while the authors retain the rights over their work. With their submission, authors consent to sign a license authorizing the program committee chairs to organize the electronic publication of their paper, provided the paper is accepted. IMPORTANT DATES * Deadline for submissions: September 25, 2022 (AoE) * Rebuttal: November 14-16, 2022 * Author notification: December 4, 2022 * Final version: January 8, 2023 * STACS 2023: March 7-10, 2023 CONTACT INFORMATION Web: www.stacs-conf.org Email: petra.berenbrink(a)uni-hamburg.de

FoPSS 2023 - Preliminary Announcement and Call for Participation
by Ugo Dal Lago 28 Aug '22

28 Aug '22

We are very pleased to spread the first information about the 4th edition of the School on Foundations of Programming and Software Systems, to be held in Bertinoro on February 13-17, 2023. This will be the first edition of the school after the beginning of the COVID pandemic. The previous editions of the school took place in Porto [1], Oxford [2], and Warsaw [3]. The school is oriented to Master and PhD students, and to young scholars. It will be held at CEUB [4], which can be reached from Bologna in about 90 minutes. (We are considering, depending on the number of participants, to organize bus transfers to and from Bologna Airport on February 12 and 18, 2023). The main theme of this edition of FoPSS are the quantitative aspects of program semantics, verification, and transformation. The following researchers have accepted to give short courses or seminars as part of the school: Deepak Garg (MPI-SWS), on "Resource Analysis Using Types" Marco Gaboardi (Boston University), on "Relational Reasoning for Security and Privacy" Benjamin Kaminski (Saarland University), on "Quantitative Verification, Transformer-style" Delia Kesner (Université de Paris), on "Quantitative Types for Higher-Order Programming Languages" Aleks Kissinger (Oxford), on "Picturing Quantum Software" Damiano Mazza (CNRS), on "Introduction to Differentiable Programming" Prakash Panangaden (McGill), on "Bisimulation Metrics and Variations with Applications to Representation Learning" Christin Tasson (Sorbonne Université), on "Probabilistic Program Semantics" Valeria Vignudelli (CNRS), on "Equational Theories for Probabilistic Effects" Registration will cover participation to the school and accommodation at CEUB with half board. Thanks to the help of sponsors (including ETAPS, SIGLOG, SIGPLAN, the University of Bologna, and the DIAPASoN Project), we plan to keep the registration fee as low as possible. The reception capacity of the CEUB is big, but subject to limits. We therefore encourage those interested in participating to the school to pre-register by following the link below [5] and fill the form *by September 22, 2022*. This we will us to keep track of the numbers. A web page with more detailed information will soon be ready and accessible via [5]. We would be happy to answer any questions about the organization of the school. Just send us an email! Looking forward to seeing you in Bertinoro. Best Regards, Ugo Dal Lago, Francesco Gavazzo, Paolo Pistone.

Certified Programs and Proofs (CPP) 2023 Call for Papers
by Steve Zdancewic 16 Aug '22

16 Aug '22

Certified Programs and Proofs (CPP) is an international conference on practical and theoretical topics in all areas that consider formal verification and certification as an essential paradigm for their work. CPP spans areas of computer science, mathematics, logic, and education. CPP 2023 (https://popl23.sigplan.org/home/CPP-2023) will be held on 16-17 January 2023 and will be co-located with POPL 2023 in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. CPP 2023 is sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN, in cooperation with ACM SIGLOG. CPP 2023 will welcome contributions from all members of the community. The CPP 2023 organizers will strive to enable both in-person and remote participation, in cooperation with the POPL 2023 organizers. IMPORTANT DATES * Abstract Submission Deadline: 14 September 2022 at 23:59 AoE (UTC-12h) * Paper Submission Deadline: 21 September 2022 at 23:59 AoE (UTC-12h) * Notification (tentative): 21 November 2022 * Camera Ready Deadline (tentative): 12 December 2022 * Conference: 16-17 January 2023 Deadlines expire at the end of the day, anywhere on earth. Abstract and submission deadlines are strict and there will be no extensions. DISTINGUISHED PAPER AWARDS Around 10% of the accepted papers at CPP 2023 will be designated as Distinguished Papers. This award highlights papers that the CPP program committee thinks should be read by a broad audience due to their relevance, originality, significance and clarity. TOPICS OF INTEREST We welcome submissions in research areas related to formal certification of programs and proofs. The following is a non-exhaustive list of topics of interest to CPP: * certified or certifying programming, compilation, linking, OS kernels, runtime systems, security monitors, and hardware; * certified mathematical libraries and mathematical theorems; * proof assistants (e.g, ACL2, Agda, Coq, Dafny, F*, HOL4, HOL Light, Idris, Isabelle, Lean, Mizar, Nuprl, PVS, etc); * new languages and tools for certified programming; * program analysis, program verification, and program synthesis; * program logics, type systems, and semantics for certified code; * logics for certifying concurrent and distributed systems; * mechanized metatheory, formalized programming language semantics, and logical frameworks; * higher-order logics, dependent type theory, proof theory, logical systems, separation logics, and logics for security; * verification of correctness and security properties; * formally verified blockchains and smart contracts; * certificates for decision procedures, including linear algebra, polynomial systems, SAT, SMT, and unification in algebras of interest; * certificates for semi-decision procedures, including equality, first-order logic, and higher-order unification; * certificates for program termination; * formal models of computation; * mechanized (un)decidability and computational complexity proofs; * formally certified methods for induction and coinduction; * integration of interactive and automated provers; * logical foundations of proof assistants; * applications of AI and machine learning to formal certification; * user interfaces for proof assistants and theorem provers; * teaching mathematics and computer science with proof assistants. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Prior to the paper submission deadline, the authors should upload their anonymized paper in PDF format through the HotCRP system at https://cpp2023.hotcrp.com The submissions must be written in English and provide sufficient detail to allow the program committee to assess the merits of the contribution. They must be formatted following the ACM SIGPLAN Proceedings format using the acmart style with the sigplan option, which provides a two-column style, using 10 point font for the main text, and a header for double blind review submission, i.e., \documentclass[sigplan,10pt,anonymous,review]{acmart}\settopmatter{printfolios=true,printccs=false,printacmref=false} The submitted papers should not exceed 12 pages, including tables and figures, but excluding bibliography and clearly marked appendices. The papers should be self-contained without the appendices. Shorter papers are welcome and will be given equal consideration. Submissions not conforming to the requirements concerning format and maximum length may be rejected without further consideration. CPP 2023 will employ a lightweight double-blind reviewing process following the process from previous years. To facilitate this, the submissions must adhere to two rules: (1) author names and institutions must be omitted, and (2) references to authors’ own related work should be in the third person (e.g., not "We build on our previous work ..." but rather "We build on the work of ..."). The purpose of this process is to help the PC and external reviewers come to an initial judgment about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing it more difficult. In particular, important background references should not be omitted or anonymized. In addition, authors are free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their papers as usual. For example, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web or give talks on their research ideas. Note that POPL 2023 itself will employ full double-blind reviewing, which differs from the light-weight CPP process. This FAQ from previous SIGPLAN conference addresses many common concerns: https://popl20.sigplan.org/track/POPL-2020-Research-Papers#Submission-and-R… We strongly encourage the authors to provide any supplementary material that supports the claims made in the paper, such as proof scripts or experimental data. This material must be uploaded at submission time, as an archive, not via a URL. Two forms of supplementary material may be submitted: (1) Anonymous supplementary material is made available to the reviewers before they submit their first-draft reviews. (2) Non-anonymous supplementary material is made available to the reviewers after they have submitted their first-draft reviews and have learned the identity of the authors. Please use anonymous supplementary material whenever possible, so that it can be taken into account from the beginning of the reviewing process. The submitted papers must adhere to the SIGPLAN Republication Policy (https://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/) and the ACM Policy on Plagiarism (https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism). Concurrent submissions to other conferences, journals, workshops with proceedings, or similar forums of publication are not allowed. The PC chairs should be informed of closely related work submitted to a conference or journal in advance of submission. One author of each accepted paper is expected to present it at the (possibly virtual) conference. PUBLICATION, COPYRIGHT AND OPEN ACCESS The CPP 2023 proceedings will be published by the ACM, and authors of accepted papers will be required to choose one of the following publication options: (1) Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM a non-exclusive permission-to-publish license and, optionally, licenses the work under a Creative Commons license. (2) Author retains copyright of the work and grants ACM an exclusive permission-to-publish license. (3) Author transfers copyright of the work to ACM. For authors who can afford it, we recommend option (1), which will make the paper Gold Open Access, and also encourage such authors to license their work under the CC-BY license. ACM will charge you an article processing fee for this option (currently, US$700), which you have to pay directly with the ACM. For everyone else, we recommend option (2), which is free and allows you to achieve Green Open Access, by uploading a preprint of your paper to a repository that guarantees permanent archival such as arXiv or HAL. This is anyway a good idea for timely dissemination even if you chose option 1. The official CPP 2023 proceedings will also be available via SIGPLAN OpenTOC (http://www.sigplan.org/OpenTOC/#cpp). For ACM’s take on this, see their Copyright Policy (http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/copyright-policy) and Author Rights (http://authors.acm.org/main.html).
