Call for Contributions: Workshop on Choreographic Programming @ PLDI 2024
by Saverio Giallorenzo 15 Jan '24

15 Jan '24

Choreographic Programming: Call for Contributions ================================================= First International Workshop on Choreographic Programming co-located with PLDI 2024 One-day event, TBD within 24–28th of June 2024, Copenhagen, Denmark https://pldi24.sigplan.org/home/cp-2024 Important dates --------------- - Submission deadline: March 22nd, 2024 (AoE) - Notification to authors: May 3rd, 2024 (AoE) - Workshop day: TBD in week 26 Theme and Topics ---------------- Choreographies are coordination plans for concurrent and distributed systems, which define the roles of the involved participants and how they are supposed to work together. In the paradigm of choreographic programming (CP), choreographies are programs that can be compiled to executable implementations. CP originated primarily in the context of process calculi, with preliminary work done to establish its foundations and experiment with implementations. Recently, several proposals have shown that one can adapt CP to work in synergy with mainstream programming paradigms, such as object-oriented and functional programming. These works substantiate the interest of a growing community of researchers and practitioners in evolving CP into a mature paradigm, able to improve the productivity and reliability of programming concurrent and distributed systems. The aim of this workshop is to catalyse the community around CP by soliciting contributions in the following topics: - Theory and models of choreographic programming. - Design and implementation of choreographic programming languages, encompassing both standalone and library-based implementations. - Design and implementation of runtime systems for choreographic programming. - Verification and testing of choreographic programs. - Type systems for choreographic languages. - Interactions with software engineering (e.g., software requirements, design, construction, testing, analysis, and maintenance and software development methodologies). - Fault tolerance and reliability in the context of choreographic programming. - Synergies and comparisons with adjacent approaches for concurrent and distributed programming (e.g., multitier programming). Contributions and Evaluation ---------------------------- Contributions can be work in progress, scientific work published or submitted for publication, tutorials, or practical experience reports. Submissions should be no more than 6 pages excluding bibliography, using the ACM Proceedings format. Templates for Microsoft Word and LaTeX can be found at the SIGPLAN author information page. Submissions will be evaluated following a lightweight double-blind review process. For further details, refer to the workshop website and for any further queries, please contact the chairs.

2nd CfP COORDINATION 2024 - 26th International Conference on
by Saverio Giallorenzo 12 Jan '24

12 Jan '24

2nd Call For Papers COORDINATION 2024 26th International Conference on Coordination Models and Languages Part of 19th International Federated Conference on Distributed Computing Techniques (DisCoTec 2024), together with FORTE and DAIS conferences. Dates: June 18-20, 2024 Location: University of Groningen, The Netherlands Website: https://www.discotec.org/2024/coordination Paper submission deadline: February 09, 2024 Submission Link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=coordination2024 Scope ======== Modern information systems rely increasingly on combining concurrent, distributed, mobile, adaptive, reconfigurable, and heterogeneous components. New models, architectures, languages, and verification techniques are necessary to cope with the complexity induced by the demands of today's software development. Coordination languages have emerged as a successful approach, in that they provide abstractions that cleanly separate behaviour from communication, therefore increasing modularity, simplifying reasoning, and ultimately enhancing software development. Building on the success of the previous editions, this conference provides a well-established forum for the growing community of researchers interested in models, languages, architectures, and implementation techniques for coordination. Main Topics ============== Topics of interest encompass all areas of coordination, including (but not limited to) coordination-related aspects of: - Theoretical models and foundations for coordination: component composition, concurrency, distribution, mobility; dynamic, spatial and probabilistic aspects of coordination; logic, types, semantics. - Coordination of multi-agent and collective systems: models, languages, infrastructures, self-adaptation, self-organisation, distributed solving, collective intelligence and emerging behaviour. - Coordination and modern distributed computing: web services, microservices, peer-to-peer networks, grid computing, context-awareness, ubiquitous computing, mobile computing, reversible computing. - Session-based programming: models, languages, behavioural types, and tools. - Models, languages, verification techniques, and tools for interacting smart contracts and (blockchain-based) decentralised applications. - Languages, methodologies, and tools for secure coordination. - Cybersecurity aspects of coordinated systems, coordinated approaches to cybersecurity. - Nature- and bio-inspired approaches to coordination. - Specification, refinement, and analysis of architectures: patterns and styles, verification of functional and non-functional properties, including performance and security aspects. - Dynamic software architectures: distributed mobile code, configuration, reconfiguration, networked computing, parallel, high-performance and cloud computing. - Coordination platforms for infrastructures of emergent new application domains, like IoT, fog-, and edge-computing. - Programming methodologies, languages, middleware, tools, and environments for the development and verification of coordinated applications, including DevOps approaches. - Coordination in business process management: coordination models for business process management, process mining techniques and tools for coordination models. - Industrial relevance of coordination and software architectures: programming in the large, domain-specific software architectures and coordination models, industry-driven efforts in coordination and case studies. - Interdisciplinary aspects of coordination. Invited Speakers ================== Marieke Huisman, University of Twente, The Netherlands Laura Kovács, Vienna University of Technology, Austria Paulo Veríssimo, KAUST, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Important dates ================== - Abstract submission: February 02, 2024 - Paper submission: February 09, 2024 - Paper notification: March 29, 2024 - Camera-ready: April 24, 2024 Dates are Anywhere on Earth (AoE). Submission ============= We invite you to submit: - Regular papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing thorough and complete research results and experience reports. In a clear case of need, as an exception, authors may ask for permission via email to the PC co-chairs to exceed the paper's max length by at most 10%, under the condition that last-minute shortening would really damage the clarity of the paper or result in non-submission. The authors must make a draft of the paper available to the PC co-chairs via EasyChair. - Short papers (4-6 pages, not counting references): describing research in progress or opinion papers on the past of COORDINATION research, on the current state of the art, or on prospects for the years to come. - Survey papers (16-25 pages, not counting references): describing important results and success stories related to the topics of COORDINATION. - Tool papers (4-15 pages, not counting references): describing technological artefacts in the scope of the research topics of COORDINATION. Tool papers should provide a clear account of the tool's functionality, discuss the tool's practical capabilities possibly with reference to the type and size of problems it can handle, and, when applicable, report on realistic case studies (possibly providing a rigorous experimental evaluation). Tool papers may also provide an account of the theoretical foundations, including relevant citations, and present design and implementation concerns, possibly including software architecture and core data structures. Papers that present extensions to existing tools should clearly describe the improvements or extensions with respect to previously published versions of the tool, possibly providing data on enhancements in terms of resources and capabilities. Papers may contain a link to a publicly downloadable MPEG-4 demo video of at most 10 minutes length. Artefacts ============ Following ACM's definition [1], an artefact is "a digital object that was either created by the authors to be used as part of the study or generated by the experiment itself. For example, artifacts can be software systems, scripts used to run experiments, input datasets, raw data collected in the experiment, or scripts used to analyze results". To improve and reward reproducibility and to give more visibility and credit to the effort of tool developers in the COORDINATION community, authors of submitted papers are invited to submit publicly available artefacts (using permanent repositories such as Software Heritage, Zenodo, etc.), which will be associated with their paper for evaluation. Based on the result of the artefact evaluation, one or more badges may be applied to a paper. Specifically, COORDINATION uses the EAPLS badging scheme [2], which in its own turn is based on and consistent with the ACM initiative. Artefact submission is mandatory for tool papers and the result of the artefact evaluation will be considered in the tool paper's acceptance decision. Instead, artefact submission is optional for all the other paper categories and the result of the artefact evaluation will not affect the paper's acceptance decision but may affect the best paper selection. Dates (AoE): - Artefact submission: February 29, 2024 - Kick-the-tires phase: - Problem reports from reviewers: 8 March, 2024 - Authors' response to reviewers: 15 March, 2024 - Artefact notification: March 29, 2024 [1] https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/artifact-review-and-badging-curre… [2] https://eapls.org/pages/artifact_badges Proceedings ============== The conference proceedings, consisting of accepted submissions from any paper category, will be published by Springer in LNCS-IFIP volumes. Special issues ================= After the conference, selected papers from the COORDINATION and FORTE programmes (except for tool papers) will be invited to a special issue of the Logical Methods in Computer Science journal. The paper submission deadline is planned for October/November 2024, and the notifications for the first round of reviews around February 2025. Selected accepted tool papers, instead, will be invited to a special issue of a reputable journal with a track dedicated to software, like the Journal of Science of Computer Programming's Software Track. The most recent special issue is out: COORDINATION 2021, Special Issue of Logical Methods in Computer Science, edited by Ferruccio Damiani and Ornela Dardha, available at: https://lmcs.episciences.org/volume/view/id/449.
