****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
