Call for Papers: 8th Workshop on Advances in Programming Languages (WAPL'21)

von Seyed H. HAERI (Hossein)

CALL FOR PAPERS ******************************************************************************* 8th Workshop on Advances in Programming Languages (WAPL'21) https://www.fedcsis.org/2021/sew-iwcps Organized within 2021 Federated Conference on Computer Science and Intelligence Systems (FedCSIS'21; IEEE #52320) ***************************** COVID-19 Information **************************** While we have planned the 2021 conference to take place in Sofia, Bulgaria, slow progress in fighting the global pandemic has forced us to switch to the fully online mode. Therefore, we plan to organize FedCSIS 2022 in Sofia, and hope that by that time COVID will be over, and we will be able to meet in person. FedCSIS organizers ******************************************************************************* FOR PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINES SEE THE BOTTOM OF THIS MESSAGE Programming languages (PLs) are programmers' most basic tools. With appropriate programming languages one can drastically reduce the cost of building new applications as well as maintaining existing ones. In the last decades there have been many advances in PL technology in traditional programming paradigms such as functional, logic, and object-oriented programming, as well as the development of new paradigms such as aspect-oriented programming. The main driving force was and will be to better express programmers' ideas. Therefore, research in programming languages is an endless activity and the core of computer science. New language features, new programming paradigms, and better compile-time and run-time mechanisms can be foreseen in the future. The aim of this session is to provide a forum for exchange of ideas and experience in topics concerned with programming languages and systems. Original papers and implementation reports are invited in all areas of programming languages. This year, a special attention will be given to submissions on programming research in mainstream languages. That can include, but is not limited to: • porting existing results from research languages to mainstream ones to examine their interplay with other features than those carefully cherry-picked for the targeted research. And, • gauging generality of research results by studying their obtainability using different sets of features than originally thought of. Such submission needs to clarify the added value of performing their research in a mainstream language (over a lab one). Topics: Major topics of interest include but are not limited to the following: • Software language engineering • Interplay between languages and machine learning (and other branches of AI), especially for Code Repair and Code Smells • Interplay between languages and security • Automata theory and applications • Compiling techniques • Context-oriented programming languages to specify the behavior of software systems and dynamic adaptations • Domain-specific languages • Formal semantics and syntax • Generative and generic programming • Grammarware and grammar based systems • Knowledge engineering languages, integration of knowledge engineering and software engineering • Languages and tools for trustworthy computing • Language theory and applications • Language concepts, design and implementation • Markup languages (XML) • Metamodeling and modeling languages • Model-driven engineering languages and systems • Practical experiences with programming languages • Program analysis, optimization and verification • Program generation and transformation • Programming paradigms (aspect-oriented, functional, logic, object-oriented, etc.) • Programming tools and environments • Proof theory for programs • Specification languages • Type systems • Virtual machines and just-in-time compilation • Visual programming languages ZDZISŁAW PAWLAK BEST PAPER AWARD The Professor Zdzisław Pawlak Awards are given in two categories: Best Paper and Best Student Paper. Each award carries a prize of 300 EUR founded by the Mazowsze Chapter of the Polish Information Processing Society. The awards have been originally associated with the International Symposium on Advanced Artificial Intelligence in Applications (AAIA) held every year as a part of FedCSIS. Currently, all papers accepted to FedCSIS are eligible to be considered as the award winners. This award will be awarded independently from awards given by individual FedCSIS events (Tracks and/or Technical Sessions). Past Award winners can be found here: https://fedcsis.org/2021/zp_award PAPER PUBLICATION: • Authors should submit draft papers (as Postscript, PDF or MSWord file). • The total length of a paper should not exceed 10 pages IEEE style (including tables, figures and references). IEEE style templates are available here. • Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and relevance to the workshop. • Preprints containing accepted papers will be published on a USB memory stick provided to the FedCSIS participants. • Only papers presented at the conference will be published in Conference Proceedings and submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore® database. • Conference proceedings will be published in a volume with ISBN, ISSN and DOI numbers and posted at the conference WWW site. • Conference proceedings will be indexed in BazEkon and submitted for indexation in: Thomson Reuters - Conference Proceedings Citation Index, SciVerse Scopus, Inspec, Index Copernicus, DBLP Computer Science Bibliography and Google Scholar • Organizers reserve right to move accepted papers between FedCSIS technical sessions. • Extended versions of selected papers presented during the conference will be published as Special Issue(s). IMPORTANT DATES: + Paper submission (strict deadline): May 24, 2021, 23:59:59 (UCT-12; there will be no extension) + Position paper submission: June 14, 2021 + Author notification: July 5, 2021 + Final paper submission and registration: July 26, 2021 + Conference date: September 2-5, 2021 Please forward this announcement to your colleagues and associates who could be interested in it.

Apologies for multiple copies of this email; please re-distribute as you see fit. DEADLINE EXTENSION We have decided to extend the deadlines for RAMiCS 2021 by *two weeks*, please see below for the new deadlines and the CfP. 19th International Conference on Relational and Algebraic Methods in Computer Science RAMiCS 2021 2 to 5 November 2021, CIRM, Marseille, France https://ramics19.lis-lab.fr/ IMPORTANT DATES: Abstract Submission: 28 May 2021 Paper Submission: 4 June 2021 Author Notification: 23 July 2021 Final Version: 12 August 2021 RAMiCS 2021: 2 to 5 November 2021 INVITED TALKS: Marcelo Frias, Buenos Aires Institute of Technology, Argentina Barbara König, Duisburg-Essen University, Germany Dmitriy Zhuk, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Russia GENERAL INFORMATION: Since 1994, the RAMiCS conference series has been the main venue for research on relation algebras, Kleene algebras and similar algebraic formalisms, and their applications as conceptual and methodological tools in computer science and beyond. RAMiCS 2021 will take place at CIRM, the Centre International de Rencontres Mathématiques at the beautiful Luminy campus close to Marseille. Depending on the Covid-19 situation, it will take the form of a physical conference, a virtual conference, or a hybrid between the two. There will be no registration fees to the conference. A limited number of grants, covering lodging and catering, are supplied by CIRM and the Archimède Institute. TOPICS: We invite submissions in the general fields of algebras relevant to computer science and applications of such algebras. Topics include but are not limited to: * Theory - algebras such as semigroups, residuated lattices, semirings, Kleene algebras, relation algebras and quantales - their connections with program logics and other logics - their use in the theories of automata, concurrency, formal languages, games, networks and programming languages - the development of algebraic, algorithmic, category-theoretic, coalgebraic and proof-theoretic methods for these theories - their formalisation with theorem provers * Applications - tools and techniques for program correctness, specification and verification - quantitative and qualitative models and semantics of computing systems and processes - algorithm design, automated reasoning, network protocol analysis, social choice, optimisation and control - industrial applications SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: Submission is via EasyChair at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ramics2021 All papers will be peer-reviewed by at least three referees. The proceedings will be published in an LNCS volume by Springer, ready at the conference. Submissions must not be published or under review for publication elsewhere. Submissions must be in English using a PDF not exceeding 16 pages in LNCS style. Submissions must provide sufficient information to judge their merits. Additional material may be provided in a clearly marked appendix or by a reference to a manuscript on a web site. Experimental data, software or mathematical components for theorem provers must be available in sufficient detail for referees. Deviation from these requirements may lead to rejection. One author of each accepted paper is expected to present the paper at the conference. Accepted papers must be produced with LaTeX. Formatting instructions and LNCS style files are available at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html As for earlier RAMiCS conferences, we intend to publish a journal special issue with revised and extended versions of a selection of the best papers.
