NASSLLI 2020 @ Brandeis University

von NASSLLI 2020

North American Summer School in Logic, Language and Information NASSLLI 2020 July 12-17 2020 Brandeis University, Waltham, MA nasslli2020.brandeis.edu The ninth North American Summer School for Logic, Language, and Information (NASSLLI) will be hosted from July 12-July 17, 2020, by Brandeis University in Waltham, MA (in the Boston area). The summer school is aimed at graduate students and advanced undergraduates in the fields of Linguistics, Computer Science, Cognitive Science, Logic, Philosophy, AI, and other related areas. NASSLLI brings these disciplines together with the goal of producing excellence in the study of how minds and machines represent, communicate, manipulate and reason with information. NASSLLI 2020 will consist of a series of courses and workshops, most running daily from Monday July 13 - Friday July 17. In addition, there will be intensive mini-courses the day prior to the start of courses (Sunday July 12). The 2020 NASSLLI will also have a theme - Formal and Computational Pragmatics and Models of Dialogue. Call for Course and Workshop Proposals: - Proposal submission deadline: September 30, 2019 - Notification: December 1, 2019 We invite proposals for courses and workshops that address topics of relevance to NASSLLI's central goal. Appropriate areas for courses include but are not limited to: semantics; pragmatics; computational linguistics; cognitive science; formal methodologies for the study of language and information; methods for data collection and analysis; logic and its applications; game and decision theory and their applications; philosophy of language; philosophy of mind. We particularly encourage submissions which address the theme (Formal and Computational Pragmatics and Models of Dialogue), and those representing cross-disciplinary approaches, especially courses showing the applicability of computational methods to theoretical work, and the use of theoretical work in practical applications. Courses involving a hands-on component (e.g., actual experience with NLP tools, coding, or machine learning algorithms) will be very welcome. NASSLLI welcomes a variety of approaches and methodologies (logics, cognitive and computational modeling, formal semantics/pragmatics, machine learning, experimental approaches) as long as the material is relevant to language, information or communication. Each course and workshop will consist of five 90 minute sessions, offered daily (Monday-Friday) during the week of the summer school. Sunday mini-courses will run for 3 to 5 hours. We encourage potential attendees and instructors to check out previous NASSLLI programs at: * Carnegie Mellon University 2018: www.cmu.edu/nasslli2018/ * Rutgers University, New Brunswick 2016: nasslli2016.rutgers.edu/ * University of Maryland, College Park 2014: www.nasslli2014.com/ * University of Texas, Austin 2012: www.nasslli2012.com/ * Indiana University 2010: www.indiana.edu/~nasslli/ * UCLA 2004: linguistics.ucla.edu/nasslli04/program.html <https://web.archive.org/web/20051018151057/http://www.linguistics.ucla.edu/…> * Indiana University 2003: indiana.edu/~nasslli/2003/program.html * Stanford University 2002: web.stanford.edu/group/nasslli/ Courses and workshops should aim to be accessible to an interdisciplinary, graduate level audience. Courses may bridge multiple areas, or focus on a single area, in which case instructors should include introductory background, try to avoid specialized notation that cannot be applied more broadly, and spend some time discussing how the topic is relevant to other fields. Workshop schedules are identical to course schedules, but usually consist of a series of presentations by different researchers; they may also include panel discussions. A workshop will be more accessible if its program is bracketed by broader-audience talks that introduce and summarize the week's presentations. Please note that NASSLLI cannot provide reimbursement for travel and accommodation for workshop presenters. Workshop proposals must include information about how the organizers expect these expenses to be covered. Course and workshop proposals from women and underrepresented minorities are particularly encouraged. PROPOSAL GUIDELINES/SUBMISSION DETAILS Proposals should be submitted in PDF format using EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=nasslli2020 and should indicate the following: 1. person(s) in charge of the course/workshop and affiliation(s) 2. type of event (Sunday mini-course, one week course, or workshop) - For mini-courses, specify how many hours you’d like them to be 3. course/workshop title 4. motivation, description, and an outline of the course/workshop up to 500 words, plus appropriate references 5. special equipment (if any) needed to teach the course 6. a statement about the instructor's experience in teaching (including in interdisciplinary settings) 7. anticipated travel costs: workshop proposals must include (a) acknowledgement of the organizers’ understanding that NASSLLI will not provide reimbursement for invited participants and (b) an explanation of how these costs will be covered. FINANCIAL AND PRACTICAL DETAILS Course instructors and workshop organizers All instructional and organizational work at NASSLLI is performed completely on a voluntary basis, so as to keep participation fees to a minimum. However, organizers and instructors have their registration fees waived, and are reimbursed for travel expenses up to a level to be determined and communicated with the proposal notification, for at most one instructor per course, and at most one organizer per workshop, and cannot guarantee full reimbursement of travel costs for lecturers or organizers from outside of the US. In addition, we will make available appropriate accommodation for participating faculty, and will aim to cover the accommodation costs for instructors/organizers utilizing this accommodation, subject to the limit of two persons per course/workshop. We encourage all instructors/workshop organizers to fund their own travel and accommodation if this is feasible, since this will allow us to use more of our funding for student scholarships and for reimbursement to instructors without funding sources. Due to federal mandates, we can only reimburse air travel booked on US-based airlines. Additional information for workshop organizers NASSLLI 2020 cannot reimburse travel, accommodation or registration expenses for lecturers/speakers invited by workshop organizers. Registration for these invitees will be at reduced cost. Workshop proposals should include a plan to obtain funding for reimbursement of invitees, or should state that all invitees will fund their own travel and accommodation. PROGRAM COMMITTEE Co-Chairs: Sophia Malamud (Brandeis University) smalamud(a)brandeis.edu James Pustejovsky (Brandeis University) jamesp(a)brandeis.edu CONTACT INFORMATION For questions relating to proposals and proposal submission, please email nasslli2020(a)easychair.org For questions relating to local organization, please email nasslli(a)brandeis.edu More information to come on our website http://nasslli2020.brandeis.edu

A postdoc position in Algorithmic Game Theory at Warwick

von Jurdzinski, Marcin

A Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in the area of the Algorithmic Game Theory is available for one year. The start date can be negotiated for the right candidate. The position is in connection with an EPSRC research grant of Dr Marcin Jurdzinski (https://www.dcs.warwick.ac.uk/~mju/) and Prof Ranko Lazic on Solving Parity Games in Theory and Practice. Parity games are an intriguing problem class, because they are simple to state and have proven to be resistant to countless attempts to classify their complexity. At the same time, algorithms for solving parity games play a paramount role in model checking, satisfiability checking, and synthesis. The main objective of the post is to pursue cutting-edge research on algorithms and solvers for parity games, as well as mean payoff, discounted payoff, and simple stochastic games. You will have a strong background in Theoretical Computer Science, with a specialisation in Algorithmic Game Theory, Automata Theory or Model Checking. You will have (or expect to obtain shortly) a PhD in the relevant area. You should provide with your application form a CV, including a list of publications, a research statement, and a short statement highlighting your suitability for this post. You will be formally based in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Warwick, and you will be associated with the Centre for Discrete Mathematics and its Applications (DIMAP, http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/dimap) and the Division of Theory and Foundations (https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/dcs/research/focs/people/) at the University of Warwick. The project will be collaborative with Prof Sven Schewe, Dr John Fearnley and Dr Dominik Wojtczak at the University of Liverpool. The closing date for applying is 30 June 2019.

Haskell Brooks Curry (1900-1982) now on-line

von jean-yves beziau

The entry by Jonathan Seldin "Haskell Brooks Curry (1900-1982)" has been posted on the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy (IEP) https://www.iep.utm.edu/curry/ Curry was one of the most important logicians of the 20th century. He did his PhD in Göttingen with Hilbert. This PhD was written in German and has been recently published in a bilingual edition: "Foundations of Combinatory Logics (Grundlagen der kombinatorischen Logik)", Haskell Curry translated and presented by Fairouz Kamareddine and Jonathan Seldin in the book series Logic PhDs http://www.collegepublications.co.uk/lphd/?00001 Curry is the originator of the expression "algebraic logic" that he used in his book written in French "Leçons de logique algébrique" (1952) The introduction and the two first chapters of this book have been translated in English by Jonathan Seldin and published with a presentation entitled "Logical Algebras as formal systems: H.B.Curry's approach to algebraic logic" in the book "Universal Logic: An Anthology" https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783034601443 Seldin wrote in the IEP entry: "He (Curry) was always willing to listen to anybody who wanted to talk to him, to discuss their ideas, and to give whatever encouragement he could. His office door was always open." Kripke indeed told me that when he was a teenager he wrote to Curry and he was the first to recognize the importance of his work on the semantics for modal logic.

CALL FOR PAPERS International Conference on Formal Methods in Computer-Aided Design (FMCAD) STUDENT FORUM San Jose, California, USA, Oct 22 - 25, 2019 https://fmcad.forsyte.at/FMCAD19/student-forum/ IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission: July 26, 2019 Notification: August 16, 2019 All deadlines are 11:59 pm AoE (Anywhere on Earth) FMCAD Tutorial Day: Oct 22, 2019 Regular Program: Oct 23 - 25, 2019 GOALS AND FORMAT Student Forum provides a platform for students at any career stage (undergraduate or graduate) to introduce their research to the wider Formal Methods community and solicit feedback. The event will consist of short presentations by the student authors of each accepted submission and of a poster that will be on display throughout the duration of the conference. All participants of the conference are encouraged to attend the talks and approach the students during the poster presentation. Accepted submissions will be listed in the description of Student Forum in the conference proceedings. The authors will also have the option to upload their poster and presentation to the FMCAD web site. Submissions will not appear in the FMCAD proceedings; thus, the presentation at Student Forum should not interfere with potential future submissions of this research (to FMCAD or elsewhere). TRAVEL AWARDS Most of the applicants will receive up to $1000 of travel reimbursement after the conference. The first author of each contribution will be given priority over other authors. Please make sure you hold on to all receipts for reimbursement. Further instructions on how to apply for travel grants will be on the website. SUBMISSIONS Submissions for the event must be short reports describing research ideas or ongoing work that the student is currently pursuing, and must be within the scope of FMCAD. Work, part of which has been previously published, will be considered; the novel aspect to be addressed in future work must be clearly described in such cases. All submissions will be reviewed by a subgroup of FMCAD program committee members. Submissions should use the IEEE Transactions format on letter-size paper with a 10-point font size and be 2 pages long including all figures and references. Please submit using the EasyChair system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fmcad2019 Advice: Focus on the key idea and try to convey it to the reader in an intuitive way. Provide a clear motivation and emphasize novel concepts/ contributions. Avoid unnecessary notational clutter unless it is a widely used formalism and helps to make the paper more concise and clear. Only describe related work that��s absolutely crucial to your contribution: the limited space available should be used to present your work. CONFERENCE SCOPE FMCAD 2019 is the nineteenth in a series of conferences on the theory and applications of formal methods in hardware and system verification. FMCAD provides a leading forum to researchers in academia and industry for presenting and discussing groundbreaking methods, technologies, theoretical results, and tools for reasoning formally about computing systems. FMCAD covers formal aspects of computer-aided system design including verification, specification, synthesis, and testing. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): - Model checking, theorem proving, equivalence checking, abstraction and reduction, compositional methods, decision procedures at the bit- and word-level, probabilistic methods, combinations of deductive methods and decision procedures. - Synthesis and compilation for computer system descriptions, modeling, specification, and implementation languages, formal semantics of languages and their subsets, model-based design, design derivation and transformation, correct-by-construction methods. - Application of formal and semi-formal methods to functional and non-functional specification and validation of hardware and software, including timing and power modeling, verification of computing systems on all levels of abstraction, system-level design and verification for embedded systems, cyber-physical systems, automotive systems and other safety-critical systems, hardware-software co-design and verification, and transaction-level verification. - Experience with the application of formal and semi-formal methods to industrial-scale designs; tools that represent formal verification enablement, new features, or a substantial improvement in the automation of formal methods. - Application of formal methods to verifying safety, connectivity and security properties of networks, distributed systems, smart contracts, blockchains, and IoT devices.

von Achim D. Brucker

CALL FOR PAPERS 19th International Workshop on OCL and Textual Modeling Co-located with MODELS 2019 ACM/IEEE 22nd International Conference on Model Driven Engineering Languages and System, September 15-20, 2019, Munich, Germany http://oclworkshop.github.io The goal of this workshop is to create a forum where researchers and practitioners interested in building models using OCL or other kinds of textual languages (e.g., OCL, textual MOF, Epsilon, or Alloy) can directly interact, report advances, share results, identify tools for language development, and discuss appropriate standards. In particular, the workshop will encourage discussions for achieving synergy from different modeling language concepts and modeling language use. The close interaction will enable researchers and practitioners to identify common interests and options for potential cooperation. ## Topics of interest Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): - Mappings between textual modeling languages and other languages/formalisms - Mathematical models and/or formal semantics for textual modeling languages - Algorithms, evaluation strategies and optimizations in the context of textual modeling languages for: - validation, verification, and testing, - model transformation and code generation, - meta-modeling and DSLs, and - query and constraint specifications - Alternative graphical/textual notations for textual modeling languages - Evolution, transformation and simplification of textual modeling expressions - Libraries, templates and patterns for textual modeling languages - Tools that support textual modeling languages (e.g., verification of OCL formulae, runtime monitoring of invariants) - Model-driven security using textual modeling languages - Complexity results for textual modeling languages - Quality models and benchmarks for comparing and evaluating textual modeling tools and algorithms - Successful applications of textual modeling languages - Case studies on industrial applications of textual modeling languages - Experience reports: - usage of textual modeling languages and tools in complex domains, - usability of textual modeling languages and tools for end-users - Empirical studies about the benefits and drawbacks of textual modeling languages - Innovative textual modeling tools - Comparison, evaluation and integration of modeling languages - Correlation between modeling languages and modeling tasks We particularly encourage submissions describing applications and case studies of textual modeling as well as test suites and benchmark collections for evaluating textual modeling tools. ## Submissions Four types of submissions will be considered: * Presentation only submission (not included in the workshop proceedings), e.g., for already published work. Authors should submit a short (1 page) abstract of their presentation. * Short papers (between 5 and 7 pages) describing new ideas or position papers. * Tool papers (between 5 and 7 pages) describing tools supporting textual modeling tools * Full papers (between 10 and 14 pages). All submissions should follow the LNCS format guidelines and should be uploaded to [EasyChair](https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ocl2019). Accepted papers will be published online in [CEUR](http://www.ceur-ws.org). ## Important Dates - Submission of papers: 14 Jul 2019 - Notification: 25 Aug 2019 - Pre-Workshop CRC: 9 Sep 2019 - Post-Workshop CRC: 5 Oct 2019 -- Dr. Achim D.
