by Carsten Fuhs 21 Oct '24

21 Oct '24

CALL FOR WORKSHOPS Tenth International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2025) 14-20 July 2025, Birmingham, UK https://fscd-conference.org/2025/ IMPORTANT DATES --------------- All deadlines are midnight anywhere-on-earth (AoE). Workshop proposal: 12 December 2024 Notification: Late January 2025 Workshop programmes: 31 May 2025 FSCD 2025 Workshops: 14 July and 19-20 July 2025 OVERVIEW -------- FSCD 2025 will take place in Birmingham from 14th to 20th July. We invite proposals for workshops on topics of interest to the FSCD community. Proposals should include: - Workshop's name and URL if already available or from previous years. - A short scientific summary and justification of the proposed topic; this should include a discussion of the particular benefits of any topic related to FSCD. - A list of workshop organisers with contact information. - Potential invited speakers (please specify expected number and, if possible, tentative names) - Procedures for selecting presentations (if you plan a call for contributed talks or papers followed by a selection procedure, the submission date should be scheduled after the FSCD notification date, while the notification should take place before the early registration deadline). - Plans for publication, if any (e.g. proceeding, journal special issue, etc.) - Proposed format and agenda (e.g. paper presentations, tutorials, demo sessions). - The proposed duration (1 day or 2 days). - Expected number of participants, providing some data on previous years, if the workshop has already been organised in the past. - Any other relevant information and special wishes regarding the schedule (e.g. specific dates, workshops that should (not) be planned on the same day). LOCAL SUPPORT ------------- The conference organisers will provide a room, internet connection, coffee breaks, lunches and help with some local organisation. SUBMISSION ---------- Proposals must be submitted as a PDF of *at most three pages*, not including references by email to: fscd2025(a)gmail.com The workshop committee will determine the final list of accepted workshops based on thematic pertinence and time/space availability. WORKSHOP COMMITTEE ------------------ - Paul Blain Levy (University of Birmingham, UK) - Anupam Das (University of Birmingham, UK) - Cynthia Kop (Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands)

FSCD 2025: First Call for Papers
by Carsten Fuhs 18 Oct '24

18 Oct '24

CALL FOR PAPERS Tenth International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2025) 14-20 July 2025, Birmingham, UK https://fscd-conference.org/2025/ IMPORTANT DATES --------------- All deadlines are midnight anywhere-on-earth (AoE); late submissions will not be considered. Abstract: 10 February 2025 Submission: 17 February 2025 Rebuttal: 7-11 April 2025 Notification: 30 April 2025 Final version: 14 May 2025 OVERVIEW -------- FSCD (https://fscd-conference.org/) covers all aspects of formal structures for computation and deduction, from theoretical foundations to applications. Building on two communities, RTA (Rewriting Techniques and Applications) and TLCA (Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications), FSCD embraces their core topics and broadens their scope to closely related areas in logic, models of computation, semantics and verification in new challenging areas. The suggested, but not exclusive, list of topics for submission is: 1. Calculi: - Rewriting systems (string, term, higher-order, nominal, graph, conditional, modulo, infinitary, etc.); - Lambda calculus; - Logics (first-order, higher-order, equational, modal, linear, classical, constructive, etc.); - Proof theory (natural deduction, sequent calculus, proof nets, etc.); - Type theory and logical frameworks; - Homotopy type theory; - Process algebras (synchronous, asynchronous, static and dynamic semantics with and without time, etc.) - Quantum calculi. 2. Methods in Computation and Deduction: - Type systems (polymorphism, dependent, recursive, intersection, session, etc.); - Induction, coinduction; - Matching, unification, completion, orderings; - Strategies (normalisation, completeness, etc.); - Tree automata; - Model building and model checking; - Proof search and theorem proving; - Constraint solving and decision procedures. 3. Semantics: - Operational semantics and abstract machines; - Game Semantics and applications; - Domain theory and categorical models; - Quantitative models (timing, probabilities, etc.); - Quantum computation and emerging models of computation. 4. Algorithmic Analysis and Transformations of Formal Systems: - Type inference and type checking; - Abstract Interpretation; - Complexity analysis and implicit computational complexity; - Checking termination, confluence, derivational complexity and related properties; - Symbolic computation. 5. Tools and Applications: - Programming and proof environments; - Verification tools; - Proof assistants and interactive theorem provers; - Applications in industry; - Applications of formal systems in other sciences; - Applications of formal systems in education. 6. Formal Systems for Modelling and Verification in new challenging areas: - Certification; - Security; - Blockchain; - Databases; - Deep learning and machine learning algorithms; - Planning. PUBLICATION ----------- The proceedings will be published as an electronic volume in the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) of Schloss Dagstuhl. All LIPIcs proceedings are open access. SPECIAL ISSUE ------------- There will be a special issue of Logical Methods in Computer Science of selected papers. More details will be provided later. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES --------------------- The submission site is: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fscd2025 Submissions must be formatted using the LIPIcs style files (https://submission.dagstuhl.de/series/details/5#author) and submitted via EasyChair. Submissions can be made in two categories: regular research papers and system descriptions. Please indicate in the submission page in Easychair and in the first page of the paper in which category you are submitting. Regular research papers are limited to 15 pages, excluding references and appendices. They must present original research which is unpublished and not submitted elsewhere. System descriptions are limited to 15 pages, excluding references. Shorter papers are welcome and will be given equal consideration. A system description must present new software tools, or significantly new versions of such tools, in which FSCD topics play an important role. An archive of the code with instructions on how to install and run the tool must be submitted. In addition, a webpage where the system can be experimented with should be provided. One author of each accepted paper is expected to register and present the work in person at the conference. In case that this is not possible for some unforeseen reason, online presentation will be arranged, but in person registration will still be required. BEST PAPER AWARD BY JUNIOR RESEARCHERS -------------------------------------- The programme committee will select a paper in which at least one author is a junior researcher, i.e. either a student or whose PhD award date is less than three years from the first day of the meeting. When submitting the paper, other authors should declare to the PC Chair that at least 50% of contribution is made by the junior researcher(s).
