Dear all,
the final run is ready at: https://termcomp.herokuapp.com/Y2023/
I will start it in 15:30 CET tomorrow, i.e., the first break of WST.
Demonstration categories will be after the competition.

OVERVIEW
--------
FSCD (https://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 logic, 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;
- Process algebras (synchronous, asynchronous, static and dynamic
semantics with and without time, etc.);
- 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;
- Applications of formal systems in education.
6. Formal Systems for 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, or to TheoretiCS.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
---------------------
The submission site is:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fscd2024
Submissions must be formatted using the LIPIcs style files
(https://submission.dagstuhl.de/series/details/5#author) and submitted
via EasyChair.
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. Shorter papers are welcome and will be given equal
consideration.
A system description 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 each accepted paper is expected to register and present
the work in person at the conference. Alternatively to in-person
presentation, also online presentation is possible, but in-person
registration by at least one author will still be required.
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. When submitting
the paper, other authors should declare to the PC Chair that at least
50% of contribution is made by the junior researcher(s).

Dear all,
in August 25th, we plan the "0th" probabilistic termination competition.
It imitates the termination competition in 2003: participants present
examples on whiteboard/screen, and all participants input the examples
to their tools on laptops and report the outputs.
I'm sorry that this announcement is so late.
Best regards,
Akihisa
Dear all,
(sIsEmpty works fine, thanks René)
can CPF/CeTA do "split" for relative termination?
"split" can be used as a notational trick, to avoid unlabeling
split for full termination is: SN(D / R-D) && SN(R-D) => SN(R)
(application: semantic labeling in the first premise)
http://cl2-informatik.uibk.ac.at/rewriting/mercurial.cgi/IsaFoR/file/1f1ecb…
I think I want SN(D / R+S) && SN(R-D / S-D) => SN(R/S)
(cf. Geser "Relative Termination" (UIB 91-03) Section 3.2)
but I cannot get CeTA to accept this,

- Johannes.
Dear all,
I have already started the first run.

We observe already a conflict :) and runscript errors :(
Please analyze.
Best,
Akihisa
Dear all,
for proving relative termination SN(R/S),
a very crude method is to infer it from SN(R \cup S).
Does the CPF format (the CeTA verifier)
have a provision for that?
- Johannes.
NB: crude, but powerful, on current SRS_Relative benchmarks,
see our WST contribution ...
