QBF 2021: Call for papers

von HUBERT MING CHEN

CALL FOR PAPERS QBF 2021 -------- International Workshop on Quantified Boolean Formulas and Beyond To be held virtually as a 1/2-day event, during SAT 2021 (July 5-9, 2021) https://www.ac.tuwien.ac.at/qbf2021 Affiliated to and co-located with: Int. Conf. on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2021) July 5-9, 2021 ------------------------------------------------------------- Quantified Boolean formulas (QBF) are an extension of propositional logic which allows for explicit quantification over propositional variables. The decision problem of QBF is PSPACE-complete, compared to the NP-completeness of the decision problem of propositional logic (SAT). Many problems from application domains such as model checking, formal verification or synthesis are PSPACE-complete, and hence could be encoded in QBF in a natural way. Considerable progress has been made in QBF solving throughout the past years. However, in contrast to SAT, QBF is not yet widely applied to practical problems in academic or industrial settings. For example, the extraction and validation of models of (un)satisfiability of QBFs has turned out to be challenging, given that state-of-the-art solvers implement different solving paradigms. The goal of the International Workshop on Quantified Boolean Formulas (QBF Workshop) is to bring together researchers working on theoretical and practical aspects of QBF solving. In addition to that, it addresses (potential) users of QBF in order to reflect on the state-of-the-art and to consolidate on immediate and long-term research challenges. The workshop also welcomes work on reasoning with quantifiers in related problems, such as dependency QBF (DQBF), quantified constraint satisfaction problems (QCSP), and satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) with quantifiers. =============== IMPORTANT DATES =============== May 31: Submission June 7: Notification of acceptance June 21: Final versions of accepted papers due July 5-9: Workshop (actual date depends on SAT Conference schedule) Please see the workshop webpage for any updates: https://www.ac.tuwien.ac.at/qbf2021 ====================== CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS ====================== The workshop is concerned with all aspects of current research on all formalisms enriched by quantifiers, and in particular QBF. The topics of interest include (but are not limited to): Applications, encodings and benchmarks with quantifiers QBF Proof theory and complexity results Experimental evaluations of solvers or related tools Case studies illustrating the power of quantifiers Certificates and proofs for QBF, QCSP, SMT with quantifiers, etc. Formats of proofs and certificates Implementations of proof checkers and verifiers Decision procedures Calculi and their relationships Data structures, implementation details and heuristics Pre- and inprocessing techniques Structural reasoning ========== SUBMISSION ========== Submissions of extended abstracts are invited and will be managed via Easychair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=qbf2021 In particular, we invite the submission of extended abstracts on work that has been published already, novel unpublished work, or work in progress. The following forms of submissions are solicited: - Proposals for short tutorial presentations on topics related to the workshop. Tutorial proposals will be reviewed by the PC. The number of accepted tutorials depends on the overall number of accepted papers and talks, with the aim to set up a balanced workshop program. - Talk abstracts reporting on already published work. Such an abstract should include an outline of the planned talk, and pointers to relevant bibliography. - Talk proposals presenting work that is unpublished or in progress. - Submissions which describe novel applications of QBF or related formalisms in various domains are particularly welcome. Additionally, this call comprises known applications which have been shown to be hard for QBF solvers in the past as well as new applications for which present QBF solvers might lack certain features still to be identified. Each submission should have an overall length of 1-4 pages in LNCS format. Authors may decide to include an appendix with additional material. Appendices will be considered at the reviewers' discretion. The accepted extended abstracts will be published on the workshop webpage. The workshop does not have formal proceedings. Authors of accepted contributions are expected to give a talk at the workshop. ======= CONTACT ======= qbf2021(a)easychair.org ================= PROGRAM COMMITTEE ================= Hubie Chen, Birkbeck, University of London Florian Lonsing, Stanford University Martina Seidl, JKU Linz Friedrich Slivovsky, TU Wien

VEST 2021 Last Call for Talks (deadline in 3 weeks)

von Ornela Dardha

********************************************************************* VEST 2021: 2nd Workshop on Verification of Session Types Online on July 12, 2021, co-located with ICALP 2021 https://sites.google.com/view/vest21/home <https://sites.google.com/view/vest21/home> Submission: Monday, 24th May 2021 Submission Link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vest21 <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vest21> Call for Talks ********************************************************************* * Presentation The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and build and strengthen a community working on verification of session types using various theorem provers such as Agda, Coq, Isabelle or any other. Session types are abstract representations of the sequences of operations that computational entities (such as channels or objects) must perform. Stateful entities offer services in a non-uniform way (one cannot pop from an empty stack); traditional type systems cannot guarantee that operations are only invoked when the entity is in the right state. Large-scale software systems rely on message-passing protocols: their correctness largely depends on sound protocol implementations. Session types can help in the specification of correct-by-construction systems, and in verifying that programs respect their intended protocols. Recent years have seen a steady stream of research on behavioural types: their foundations and their transfer to several programming languages. This has led to highly-cited papers in conferences such as POPL and journals such as TOPLAS. Research projects on behavioural types have advanced the theory and applications of behavioural types. Although the foundations of session types are now well established, and new works build on approaches that have become standard, there is still a lack of reusable libraries, namely machine-verified ones. As on one hand the basis of most works is common, and on the other hand the complexity of the formal systems is considerable and may lead to errors in the proofs of the soundness results, machine verifying the type systems proposed is vital. Libraries, or at least clear formalisations of common approaches, is crucial to avoid not only to repeat work but also to increase the confidence in the knowledge base. Moreover, as many of these systems have a goal to do static analysis to ensure some safety or liveness property, machine verification of these approaches leads to certified software for program analysis. The goal of the VEST workshop is to gather the researchers working on mechanisations of behavioural types using various theorem provers, such as Agda, Coq, Isabelle or any other. The workshop will be a platform to present both the now well-established efforts and the ongoing works the community has put on verification. The workshop will also be a forum to discuss strengths and weaknesses of existing approaches, potential obstacles and to foster collaboration. * Types of Contributions We request two types of research contributions. Type 1: Short presentations (1 page) of work published elsewhere; Type 2: Presentations (2-5 pages) of ongoing original work. Submissions of Type 1 will consist of 1 page papers presenting the work, the publication venue and the significance of the results; the PC will select the submissions with a ranking system. Submissions of Type 2 will consist of 2 - 5 page papers submitted to a light reviewing process. There will be no proceedings of VEST'21, but rather the aim is to strengthen and further expand our community. * Important Dates AoE (UTC-12h) Submission: Monday, 24 May 2021 Notification: Monday, 21st June 2021 Final Version: Monday, 5th July 2021 Workshop: Monday, 12th July 2021 * Submission Link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vest21 <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vest21> * Invited Speakers: - Jesper Bengtson (IT University of Copenhagen, Denmark) - Andreia Mordido (University of Lisbon, Portugal) *Tutorial, jointly delivered by: - David Castro-Perez (University of Kent, UK) - Francisco Ferreira-Ruiz (Imperial College, UK) - Lorenzo Gheri (Imperial College, UK) * Program Committee: - Robert Atkey, University of Strathclyde, UK - Laura Bocchi, University of Kent, UK - Ornela Dardha, University of Glasgow, UK (Co-chair) - Cinzia Di Giusto, Université Côte d'Azur, CNRS, I3S, France - Wen Kokke, The University of Edinburgh, UK - Robbert Krebbers, Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands - Luca Padovani , Università di Torino, Italy - Kirstin Peters, TU Darmstadt, Germany - António Ravara, NOVA University of Lisbon, Portugal (Co-chair) - Ivan Scagnetto, University of Udine, Italy - Peter Thiemann, Universität Freiburg, Germany
