Structure meets Power 2022: deadline soon

von Anuj Dawar

**************************************** * STRUCTURE MEETS POWER 2022 * * (an ICALP workshop) * * * * Call for Contributions * **************************************** Workshop dates: 4 July 2022 (Paris and online) https://www.cst.cam.ac.uk/conference/structure-meets-power-2022 Scope ----- There is a remarkable divide in the field of logic in Computer Science, between two distinct strands: one focusing on semantics and compositionality (“Structure”), the other on expressiveness and complexity (“Power”). These two fundamental aspects of our field are studied using almost disjoint technical languages and methods, by almost disjoint research communities. We believe that bridging this divide is a major issue in Computer Science, and may hold the key to fundamental advances in the field. The aim this workshop is to attract investigators at the boundary of the two strands, and those on either side of the divide interested on establishing new connections. This is an ICALP 2022 affiliated workshop. This will be a hybrid event, however, on site participation is highly recommended. Important dates --------------- Abstract submission: 27 May 2022 (extended) Author notification: 5 June 2022 Registration: 20 June 2022 Invited speakers ---------------- * Libor Barto (Charles University) * Sandra Kiefer (RWTH Aachen University) * Bartek Klin (University of Oxford) Submissions ----------- Those wishing to speak at the workshop are invited to submit an Extended Abstract of up to three pages (including references) describing the content of the contributed presentation. Submissions should only have a single author -- the speaker. The co-authors are required to be clearly indicated in the abstract and later also in the slides. For submissions please use the EasyChair conference system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=smp2022 We encourage talks of all levels of progress, including novel contributions, already published results, work in progress, as well as survey-type contributions. However, original contributions might be considered for a subsequent special issue, consisting of journal versions of selected extended abstracts. Depending on the number of submissions, contributed talks will be 20-30 minutes long. Registration ------------ There will be two types of participation, online and on-site participation. For online participation it is mandatory to fill in the following form: https://www.cst.cam.ac.uk/conference/structure-meets-power-2022/registratio… For on-site participation one must fill in the ICALP registration form: https://icalp2022.dakini-pco.com/ Note that online participation is free and on-site participation costs 50 euros which includes 2 coffee breaks and lunch.

Third CFP: LogTeach-22 (plain text)

******************************************************************* LogTeach-22: Why and how to tech Logic for CS undergraduates? ******************************************************************* html version attached ===================== Third Call for papers ===================== https://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~janos/LogTeach-22/ https://easychair.org/cfp/LogTeach-22 NEW: This is an in-person meeting. People who want to contribute, but cannot attend, are encouraged to submit a short position paper. If accepted by the PC these papers will be integrated into the panel discussion planned for the workshop. If any form of post-workshop publication will be planned, their authors will be contacted in order to contribute. LogTeach-22: LICS 2022 Workshop (July 31 and August 1, 2022, Haifa) Why and how to tech Logic for CS undergraduates? Scientific justification ------------------------- Logic is one of the pillars of the foundation of Computer Science, together with Algorithmic Mathematics, Information Theory, and Electronics. Consequently various versions of Logic courses used to be part of the undergraduate syllabus of Computer Science. However, as witnessed by the variety of conferences related to Logic present at the FLoC event, the emphasis has moved from the foundation to applications of Logic in Computer Science. Each of these conferences deal with topics suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses, which require some Logic based prerequisite. On the other hand, Logic courses in the undergraduate syllabus have been forced to make place for courses deemed more suitable for the education of future specialists and practitioners working in IT. Many of the top Universities worldwide have dropped foundational Logic courses for undergraduates for more practical oriented courses, turning undergraduate CS programs into programs more suitable for what used to be vocational colleges and professional schools. Time has come to critically reflect upon and reevaluate the role of Logic in the undergraduate syllabus. It seems clear that the classical Logic in CS courses have no place there anymore. They seem to teach and emphasize the wrong narrative of logic as taught by tradition. However, it seems also clear that eliminating Logic courses all together is counter productive. The purpose of the workshop is the prepare a proposal for a logic course Logic-2020 which is useful and acceptable for University undergraduates in CS, and which can serve as a prerequisite for the many diverse branches of applied logic. "Logic may be not very useful, if you know it, but very harmful, if you ignore it" (Georg Kreisel) Invited speakers ---------------- + confirmed, * tentative + Moshe Vardi (Rice University, Houston TA, USA) + Matthias Baaz (Technical University, Vienna, Austria) + Reinhold Kahle (Universität Tübingen, Tübingen, Germany) + Arnon Avron (TA University, Tel Aviv, Israel) + Martin Davis (Courant Institute, New York, USA) + Thomas Zeume (Ruhr Universität Bochum, Germany) + Edward Hirsch (Steklov Institute, St. Petersburg, visiting Technion, Haifa) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Georg Gottlob (Oxford University, Oxford, Great Britain) * Samson Abramsky (Oxford University, Oxford, Great Britain) * Jeremy Avigad (Carnegy Mellon University, Pittsburgh PA, USA) To be completed Organisation ------------- The purpose of the workshop is to prepare a joint position paper to be published possibly in the Communications of ACM, or a similar prominent place, with recommendations for the future of teaching Logic for undergraduate CS-students. We plan to have presentations of position papers (30 minutes, including discussion) and invited lectures (60 minutes including discussion), followed by a two hour panel discussion. Workshop organizers and Program Committee ------------------------------------------ J.A. Makowsky (Technion, Haifa, Israel) E.V. Ravve (ORT Braude, Karmiel, Israel) S.N. Artemov (CUNY, New York, USA) S. Szeider (Technical University, Vienna, Austria) Dates and Location ------------------ FLOC is planned to be a conference with physical presence in Haifa.

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 ** - Radu Mardare University of Strathclyde, UK - José Meseguer University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, US - José Nuno Oliveira Universidade do Minho, PT - Peter Selinger Dalhousie University, CA ** Contributed talks ** see http://wadt2022.web.ua.pt ** Workshop format and location ** WADT'22 is planned to be realised in a family-owned guesthouse with panoramic views to lagoon Pateira de Fermentelos, 20 minutes from the centre of Aveiro. The registration fees, that includes the event registration, accommodations and meals, will be around EUR 500 for standard and EUR 300 for student participants. Instructions will be available soon 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. ** 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 * Erika Abraham (RWTH Aachen, NL) Luis S.

LAMAS & SR 2022 - 2nd Call for Contributions

von Fabio Mogavero

[Apologies for multiple cross-posting] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd Call for Contributions 2nd International Workshop on Logical Aspects in Multi-Agent Systems and Strategic Reasoning (LAMAS&SR) 2022 25-26 August 2022, Rennes, France URL: https://lamassr.github.io/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Objectives ---------- Logics and strategic reasoning play a central role in multi-agent systems. Logics can be used, for instance, to express the agents’ abilities, knowledge, and objectives. Strategic reasoning refers to algorithmic methods that allow for developing good behaviour for the agents of the system. At the intersection, we find logics that can express existence of strategies or equilibria, and can be used to reason about them. The LAMAS&SR workshop merges two international workshops: LAMAS (Logical Aspects of Multi-Agent Systems), which focuses on all kinds of logical aspects of multi-agent systems from the perspectives of artificial intelligence, computer science, and game theory, and SR (Strategic Reasoning), devoted to all aspects of strategic reasoning in formal methods and artificial intelligence. List of Topics -------------- The topics covered by the workshop include, but are not limited to: * Logical systems for specification, analysis, and reasoning about multi-agent systems * Logic-based modelling of multi-agent systems * Dynamical multi-agent systems * Deductive systems and decision procedures for logics for multi-agent systems * Development and implementation of methods for verification in multi-agent systems * Logic-based tools for multi-agent systems * Logics for reasoning about strategic abilities * Logics for multi-agent mechanism design, verification, and synthesis * Logical foundations of decision theory for multi-agent systems * Strategic reasoning in formal verification * Automata theory for strategy synthesis * Applications and tools for cooperative and adversarial reasoning * Robust planning and optimisation in multi-agent systems * Risk and uncertainty in multi-agent systems * Quantitative aspects in strategic reasoning Invited Speakers ---------------- * Rineke Verbrugge, University of Groningen Co-Located Event ---------------- LAMAS&SR 2022 will be an event co-located with the 14th International Conference on Advances In Modal Logic (AiML 2022, 22-25 August). About COVID-19 -------------- Local organizers are following closely the evolution of the pandemic situation. Our preference is for a full in-person event, but we will employ an online or hybrid format according to the situation. Important Dates --------------- * Paper submission: May 23 (AoE) * Author notification: June 30 (AoE) * Camera ready: July 15 (AoE) * Workshop: August 25-26, 2022 Contribution Submission ----------------------- Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts of 2 pages, plus 1 page for references only, in the AAMAS 2022 format. Both published and unpublished works are welcome. Submissions are subject to a single-blind review process, thus, submissions should not be anonymous, must be in PDF format, and will be handled via EasyChair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lamassr22 Although there will be no formal proceedings, accepted extended abstracts will be made available on the workshop website. Extensions of selected original contributions will be then invited to a special issue of Games, an MDPI open-access journal, with a special arrangement.

DaLí 2022 - Call for Papers - ** Extended Deadline **

von Carlos Areces

DaLí 2022 - Call for Papers - ** Extended Deadline ** http://dali2022.campus.ciencias.ulisboa.pt/ -- Online participation will be ensured. -- ***Important Dates*** - Abstract submission deadline: 18 May 2022 (Extended!) - Full paper submission deadline: 25 May 2022 (Extended!) - Author notifications: 15 June 2022 - Workshop final program online: 15 June 2022 ****Invited Speakers**** Marta Bílková (Institute of Computer Science, Czech Academy of Sciences, CZ) Nina Gierasimczuk (Technical University of Denmark, DK) Elaine Pimentel (University College London, UK) Fernando Velázquez Quesada (University of Bergen, NO) ****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 behavior 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=dal2022 Papers will be published in a Lecture Notes in Computer Science Volume, Springer. We are planning a special issue of a journal for selected contributions. Extended abstracts with preliminary results and work in progress (2-5 pag) are also welcomed for short presentations. ****Program Committee Chairs**** Carlos Areces (FaMAF, Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, AR) Diana Costa (LASIGE, FCUL, University of Lisbon, PT) ****Program Commitee**** Thomas Ågotnes (U.
