DaLí 2022 - Call for Papers

von Carlos Areces

DaLí 2022 - Call for Papers http://dali2022.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt ***Important Dates*** - Abstract submission deadline: 03 May 2022 - Full paper submission deadline: 10 May 2022 - Author notifications: 15 June 2022 ************ ****Overview***** Dynamic logic (DL), a generalization of the logic of Floyd-Hoare introduced in the 70s by Pratt, is a well-known and particularly powerful way of combining propositions, for capturing static properties of program states, and structured actions, responsible for transitions from a state to another (and typically combined through a Kleene algebra to express sequential, non-deterministic, iterative behaviour of systems), into a formal framework to reason about, and verify, classic imperative programs. Over time Dynamic logic grew to encompass a family of logics increasingly popular in the verification of computational systems, and able to evolve and adapt to new, and complex validation challenges. In particular, the dynamic logic community is interested in the study of operators that can modify the structure in which they are being evaluated. Examples include dynamic logics tailored to specific programming problems or paradigms (e.g., separation logics to model the evolution of a program heap); languages to reason and represent evolving information (e.g., dynamic epistemic logics); and formalism that aim to model new computing domains, including probabilistic, continuous and quantum computation. Dynamic logic is not only theoretically relevant, but it also shows enormous practical potential and it is indeed a topic of interest in several scientific venues, from wide-scope software engineering conferences to modal logic specific events. That being said, DaLí is the only event exclusively dedicated to this topic. It is our aim to once again bring together in a single place the heterogeneous community of colleagues which share an interest in Dynamic logic - from Academia to Industry, from Mathematics to Computer Science, - to promote their works, to foster great discussions and new collaborations. Previous editions of DaLí took place in Brasília (2017) and Porto (2019), and an online edition (2020). ****List of Topics**** Submissions are invited on the general field of dynamic logic, its variants and applications, including, but not restricted to: - Dynamic logic, foundations and applications - Logics with regular modalities - Modal/temporal/epistemic logics - Kleene and action algebras and their variants - Quantum dynamic logic - Coalgebraic modal/dynamic logics - Graded and fuzzy dynamic logics - Dynamic logics for cyber-physical systems - Dynamic epistemic logic - Complexity and decidability of variants of dynamic logics and temporal logics - Model checking, model generation and theorem proving for dynamic logics ****Submission and Proceedings**** Submissions of original papers (unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere), up to 15 pages in LNCS style, are invited through https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dali2020 A post-proceedings volume and a special issue of a journal are planned. ****Invited Speakers**** TBA ****Program Committee Chairs**** Carlos Areces (FaMAF, Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, AR) Diana Costa (LASIGE, FCUL, University of Lisbon, PT) ****Program Commitee**** Thomas Ågotnes (U.

Learning and Automata (LearnAut) 2022 -- ICALP 2022 Workshop

von Tobias Kappé

Learning and Automata (LearnAut) -- ICALP 2022 workshop July 4th - Paris, France and virtually Website: https://learnaut22.github.io Learning models defining recursive computations, like automata and formal grammars, are the core of the field called Grammatical Inference (GI). The expressive power of these models and the complexity of the associated computational problems are major research topics within mathematical logic and computer science. Historically, there has been little interaction between the GI and ICALP communities, though recently some important results started to bridge the gap between both worlds, including applications of learning to formal verification and model checking, and (co-)algebraic formulations of automata and grammar learning algorithms. The goal of this workshop is to bring together experts on logic who could benefit from grammatical inference tools, and researchers in grammatical inference who could find in logic and verification new fruitful applications for their methods. We invite submissions of recent work, including preliminary research, related to the theme of the workshop. The Program Committee will select a subset of the abstracts for oral presentation. At least one author of each accepted abstract is expected to represent it at the workshop (in person, or virtually). Note that accepted papers will be made available on the workshop website but will not be part of formal proceedings (i.e., LearnAut is a non-archival workshop). Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): - Computational complexity of learning problems involving automata and formal languages. - Algorithms and frameworks for learning models representing language classes inside and outside the Chomsky hierarchy, including tree and graph grammars. - Learning problems involving models with additional structure, including numeric weights, inputs/outputs such as transducers, register automata, timed automata, Markov reward and decision processes, and semi-hidden Markov models. - Logical and relational aspects of learning and grammatical inference. - Theoretical studies of learnable classes of languages/representations. - Relations between automata or any other models from language theory and deep learning models for sequential data. - Active learning of finite state machines and formal languages. - Methods for estimating probability distributions over strings, trees, graphs, or any data used as input for symbolic models. - Applications of learning to formal verification and (statistical) model checking. - Metrics and other error measures between automata or formal languages. ** Invited speakers ** Jeffrey Heinz (Stony Brook University) Ariadna Quattoni (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya) ** Submission instructions ** Submissions in the form of extended abstracts must be at most 8 single-column pages long at most (plus at most four for bibliography and possible appendixes) and must be submitted in the JMLR/PMLR format. The LaTeX style file is available here: https://ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/jmlr We do accept submissions of work recently published or currently under review. - Submission url: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=learnaut2022 - Submission deadline: March 31st - Notification of acceptance: April 30th - Early registration: TBD ** Program Committee ** TBD ** Organizers ** Remi Eyraud (University of Saint-Étienne) Tobias Kappé (ILLC, University of Amsterdam) Guillaume Rabusseau (Mila & DIRO, Université de Montréal) Matteo Sammartino (Royal Holloway, University of London & University College London)

Call for Nominations: Church Award 2022

von Jagadeesan, Radha

CALL FOR NOMINATIONS The 2022 Alonzo Church Award for Outstanding Contributions to Logic and Computation INTRODUCTION An annual award, called the Alonzo Church Award for Outstanding Contributions to Logic and Computation, was established in 2015 by the ACM Special Interest Group for Logic and Computation (SIGLOG), the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS), the European Association for Computer Science Logic (EACSL), and the Kurt Goedel Society (KGS). The award is for an outstanding contribution represented by a paper or by a small group of papers published within the past 25 years. This time span allows the lasting impact and depth of the contribution to have been established. The award can be given to an individual, or to a group of individuals who have collaborated on the research. For the rules governing this award, see https://siglog.org/alonzo-church-award/, https://www.eatcs.org/index.php/church-award/, and https://www.eacsl.org/alonzo-church-award/ . The 2021 Alonzo Church Award was given jointly to Georg Gottlob, Christoph Koch, Reinhard Pichler, Luc Segoufin and Klaus U. Schulz for their ground-breaking work on logic-based web-data extraction, and querying tree-structured data. Lists containing this and all previous winners can be found through the links above. ELIGIBILITY AND NOMINATIONS The contribution must have appeared in a paper or papers published within the past 25 years. Thus, for the 2022 award, the cut-off date is January 1, 1997. When a paper has appeared in a conference and then in a journal, the date of the journal publication will determine the cut-off date. In addition, the contribution must not yet have received recognition via a major award, such as the Turing Award, the Kanellakis Award, or the Goedel Prize. (The nominee(s) may have received such awards for other contributions.) While the contribution can consist of conference or journal papers, journal papers will be given a preference. Nominations for the 2022 award are now being solicited. The nominating letter must summarize the contribution and make the case that it is fundamental and outstanding. The nominating letter can have multiple co-signers. Self-nominations are excluded. Nominations must include: a proposed citation (up to 25 words); a succinct (100-250 words) description of the contribution; and a detailed statement (not exceeding four pages) to justify the nomination. Nominations may also be accompanied by supporting letters and other evidence of worthiness. Nominations should be submitted to rjagadee(a)depaul.edu by April 2, 2022. PRESENTATION OF THE AWARD The 2022 award will be presented at the Federated Logic Conference 2022, which is scheduled to take place in Haifa, Israel in July/August 2022.

WADT'22 1st cfp

von Alexandre Madeira

=================================================================================== WADT'22 - 26th International Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques 2022 ** First call for papers ** http://wadt2022.web.ua.pt Aveiro, 28-30 June, 2022 =================================================================================== ** Aims and Scope ** The algebraic approach to system specification encompasses many aspects of the formal design of software systems. Originally born as a formal method for reasoning about abstract data types, it now covers new specification frameworks and programming paradigms (such as object-oriented, aspect oriented, agent-oriented, logic and higher-order functional programming) as well as a wide range of application areas (including information systems, concurrent, distributed and mobile systems). The workshop will provide an opportunity to present recent and ongoing work, to meet colleagues, and to discuss new ideas and future trends. In 2020 WADT features additionally two special thematic tracks: one in *Algebra for timed and hybrid systems* and another in *Algebraic approaches to quantum computation*. ** Main track ** Typical, but not exclusive topics of interest for the main track are: - Foundations of algebraic specification - Other approaches to formal specification, including process calculi and models of concurrent and distributed systems - Specification languages, methods, and environments - Semantics of conceptual modelling methods and techniques - Integration of formal specification techniques - Formal testing and quality assurance, validation, and verification ** Algebra for timed and hybrid systems ** Track Chair: Renato Neves (UM, PT) The track 'Algebra for timed and hybrid systems' seeks algebraic contributions towards a better understanding of timed and hybrid systems, including their design and verification. A non-exhaustive list of topics includes: - (co)algebraic syntax and semantics, - observational notions of equivalence, - equational reasoning and variants thereof, - distributed and/or concurrent computing; - modal and temporal logic, - (co)algebraic verification tools, - experience reports on the use of (co)algebraic tools. ** Algebraic approaches to quantum computation ** Track Chair: Rui Soares Barbosa (INL, PT) This track seeks contributions on algebraic methods in the context of quantum computing, broadly understood, ranging from foundations to applications and tools. A non-exhaustive list of topics includes: - foundational structures for quantum computing - quantum calculi and logics - quantum programming languages - algebraic and categorical semantics for quantum computing - algebraic approaches to verification of quantum programs - rewriting and automated reasoning with applications to quantum compilation and optimisation - tool support - application of quantum algebra to quantum computing and beyond ** Invited Speakers (to be completed)** - José Meseguer University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, US - Peter Selinger Dalhousie University, Canada ** Workshop format and location ** WADT'22 is planned to be realized in a family-owned guesthouse with panoramic views to lagoon Pateira de Fermentelos, 20 minutes from the centre of Aveiro. Information about accommodation will be available in http://wadt2022.web.ua.pt. Being planned as a physical, in-person event, due the COVID19 current situation, we will provide certain support for remote presence, both for speakers and for other participants who are unable or unwilling to come, depending on the pandemic situation. ** Submissions and Publications ** Presentations will be selected on the basis of submitted abstracts. The abstracts must be up to two pages long including references. If a longer version of the contribution is available, it can be made accessible on the web and referenced in the abstract. The abstracts have to be submitted electronically via the EasyChair link https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wadt2022. WADT 2022 is organised by IFIP WG 1.03. As an IFIP event, post-proceedings will be published by Springer in the LNCS series (requested). The deadline for the submission of full papers to be considered in this volume, to be announced during the workshop, are expected to the end of September 2022. ** Important dates ** April 1 Contributed Abstracts April 17 Notifications about the contributed talks TBA: full papers, for the post-proceeding volume ** Organisation ** * Steering Committee * Andrea Corradini (IT) José Fiadeiro (UK) Rolf Hennicker (GE) Alexander Knapp (GE) Hans-Jörg Kreowski (GE) Till Mossakowski (GE) Fernando Orejas (SP) Leila Ribeiro (BR) Markus Roggenbach (UK) Grigore Roșu (US) * Program Committee (to be completed) * Erika Abraham (RWTH Aachen, NL) Luis S.
