======================================================================                       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.

/*The submission deadline has been extended by one week.*/

IMPORTANT DATES:

* submission deadline: *May 10, 2022*   * notification: *June 15, 2022*   * final version due: *June 29, 2022*   * workshop:             August 11-12, 2022

INVITED SPEAKER: René Thiemann

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 only informal 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:
