WST 2022 - Call for Papers

by Cynthia Kop

====================================================================== WST 2022 - Call for Papers 18th International Workshop on Termination https://sws.cs.ru.nl/WST2022 August 11-12, 2022, Haifa, Israel Co-located with IJCAR-11 at FLoC 2022 ====================================================================== The Workshop on Termination (WST) traditionally brings together, in an informal setting, researchers interested in all aspects of termination, whether this interest be practical or theoretical, primary or derived. The workshop also provides a ground for cross-fertilization of ideas from the different communities interested in termination (e.g., working on computational mechanisms, programming languages, software engineering, constraint solving, etc.). The friendly atmosphere enables fruitful exchanges leading to joint research and subsequent publications. IMPORTANT DATES: * submission deadline: May 3, 2022 * notification: June 8, 2022 * final version due: June 22, 2022 * workshop: August 11-12, 2022 INVITED SPEAKERS: TBA TOPICS: The 18th International Workshop on Termination welcomes contributions on all aspects of termination. In particular, papers investigating applications of termination (for example in complexity analysis, program analysis and transformation, theorem proving, program correctness, modeling computational systems, etc.) are very welcome. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * abstraction methods in termination analysis * certification of termination and complexity proofs * challenging termination problems * comparison and classification of termination methods * complexity analysis in any domain * implementation of termination analysis methods * non-termination analysis and loop detection * normalization and infinitary normalization * operational termination of logic-based systems * ordinal notation and subrecursive hierarchies * SAT, SMT, and constraint solving for (non-)termination analysis * scalability and modularity of termination methods * termination analysis in any domain (lambda calculus, declarative programming, rewriting, transition systems, probabilistic programs, etc.) * well-founded relations and well-quasi-orders SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: Submissions are short papers/extended abstracts which should not exceed 5 pages. There will be no formal reviewing. In particular, we welcome short versions of recently published articles and papers submitted elsewhere. The program committee checks relevance and provides additional feedback for each submission. The accepted papers will be made available electronically before the workshop. Papers should be submitted electronically via the submission page: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wst22 Please, use LaTeX and the LIPIcs style file https://submission.dagstuhl.de/styles/download-tag/lipics/v2021.1.2/authors… to prepare your submission. PROGRAM COMMITTEE: * Jose Divasón - U. de La Rioja * Florian Frohn - AbsInt GmbH * Jera Hensel - RWTH Aachen * Dieter Hofbauer - ASW Saarland * Sebastiaan Joosten - Dartmouth College * Cynthia Kop (chair) - Radboud U. Nijmegen * Akihisa Yamada - AIST, Japan * Hans Zantema - Eindhoven U. of Technology

(Apologies for multiple copies of this announcement. Please circulate.) ======================================================================= Updated information on: invited speakers, affiliated workshops ======================================================================= CALL FOR PAPERS Seventh International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2022) August 2 - 5, 2022, Haifa, Israel https://fscd2022.github.io In-cooperation with ACM SIGLOG and SIGPLAN IMPORTANT DATES --------------- All deadlines are midnight anywhere-on-earth (AoE); late submissions will not be considered. Abstract: February 8, 2022 Submission: February 11, 2022 Rebuttal: March 29-April 1, 2022 Notification: April 15, 2022 Final version: April 30, 2022 INVITED SPEAKERS ---------------- - Cynthia Kop, Radboud University Nijmegen (FSCD Invited Speaker) - Alwen Tiu, The Australian National University (FSCD Invited Speaker) - Orna Kupferman, Hebrew University (FLoC Plenary Speaker) - Catuscia Palamidessi, INRIA Saclay and LIX (FLoC Keynote Speaker) AFFILIATED WORKSHOPS -------------------- - IFIP-WG1.6: Annual Meeting of the IFIP Working Group 1.6 on Term Rewriting (July 31, only invited talks) - HoTT/UF: 7th Workshop on Homotopy Type Theory/Univalent Foundations (July 31-August 1) - IWC: 11th International Workshop on Confluence (August 1) - LFMTP: International Workshop on Logical Frameworks and Meta-Languages: Theory and Practice (August 1) - Linearity-TLLA: 3rd Joint International Workshop (July 31-August 1) - TERMGRAPH: 12th International Workshop on Computing with Terms and Graphs (August 1) - WiL: 6th Workshop on Women in Logic (July 31) - WPTE: 9th International Workshop on Rewriting Techniques for Program Transformations and Evaluation (July 31) OVERVIEW -------- FSCD (http://fscd-conference.org/) covers all aspects of formal structures for computation and deduction from theoretical foundations to applications. Building on two communities, RTA (Rewriting Techniques and Applications) and TLCA (Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications), FSCD embraces their core topics and broadens their scope to closely related areas in logics, models of computation, semantics and verification in new challenging areas. The suggested, but not exclusive, list of topics for submission is: 1. Calculi: - Rewriting systems (string, term, higher-order, graph, conditional, modulo, infinitary, etc.); - Lambda calculus; - Logics (first-order, higher-order, equational, modal, linear, classical, constructive, etc.); - Proof theory (natural deduction, sequent calculus, proof nets, etc.); - Type theory and logical frameworks; - Homotopy type theory; - Quantum calculi. 2. Methods in Computation and Deduction: - Type systems (polymorphism, dependent, recursive, intersection, session, etc.); - Induction, coinduction; - Matching, unification, completion, orderings; - Strategies (normalization, completeness, etc.); - Tree automata; - Model building and model checking; - Proof search and theorem proving; - Constraint solving and decision procedures. 3. Semantics: - Operational semantics and abstract machines; - Game Semantics and applications; - Domain theory and categorical models; - Quantitative models (timing, probabilities, etc.); - Quantum computation and emerging models in computation. 4. Algorithmic Analysis and Transformations of Formal Systems: - Type Inference and type checking; - Abstract Interpretation; - Complexity analysis and implicit computational complexity; - Checking termination, confluence, derivational complexity and related properties; - Symbolic computation. 5. Tools and Applications: - Programming and proof environments; - Verification tools; - Proof assistants and interactive theorem provers; - Applications in industry; - Applications of formal systems in other sciences. 6. Semantics and Verification in new challenging areas: - Certification; - Security; - Blockchain protocols; - Data Bases; - Deep learning and machine learning algorithms; - Planning. PUBLICATION ----------- The proceedings will be published as an electronic volume in the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) of Schloss Dagstuhl. All LIPIcs proceedings are open access. SPECIAL ISSUE ------------- Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version to a special issue of Logical Methods in Computer Science. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES --------------------- The submission site is: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fscd2022 Submissions must be formatted using the LIPIcs style files (https://submission.dagstuhl.de/series/details/5#author). Submissions can be made in two categories. Regular research papers are limited to 15 pages, excluding references and appendices. They must present original research which is unpublished and not submitted elsewhere. System descriptions are limited to 15 pages, excluding references. They must present new software tools, or significantly new versions of such tools, in which FSCD topics play an important role. An archive of the code with instructions on how to install and run the tool must be submitted. In addition, a webpage where the system can be experimented with should be provided. One author of an accepted paper is expected to present it at the (physical) conference, unless Covid restrictions prevent travel. BEST PAPER AWARD BY JUNIOR RESEARCHERS -------------------------------------- The program committee will select a paper in which at least one author is a junior researcher, i.e. either a student or whose PhD award date is less than three years from the first day of the meeting. Other authors should declare to the PC Chair that at least 50% of contribution is made by the junior researcher(s).
