Computer Science Logic (CSL) is the annual conference of the European
Association for Computer Science Logic (EACSL), see https://www.eacsl.org/. 

It is an interdisciplinary conference, spanning across both basic and 
application oriented research in mathematical logic and computer science.  

CSL'22 will be held on February 14 - 19, 2022, in Göttingen, Germany. 
Currently, we expect that the conference will be organized in a hybrid way: 
both with an in-presence component and an online component. 

Website: http://csl2022.uni-goettingen.de/

Invited speakers:
-

Annabelle McIver Macquarie (University, Sydney, Australia)
Udi Boker (IDC Herzliya, Israel)
Martin Escardo (University of Birmingham, UK)
Rosalie Iemhoff (Utrecht University, The Netherlands)
Karen Lange (Wellesley College, USA)


Submission guidelines:
--

Submitted papers must be in English and must provide sufficient detail to allow 
the Programme Committee to assess the merits of the paper. Full proofs may 
appear in a clearly marked technical appendix which will be read at the 
reviewers' discretion. Authors are strongly encouraged to include a well 
written introduction which is directed at all members of the PC.

The CSL 2022 conference proceedings will be published in Leibniz International 
Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs), see 
https://submission.dagstuhl.de/documentation/authors. 

Authors are invited to submit contributed papers of no more than 15 pages in 
LIPIcs style (not including references), presenting unpublished work fitting 
the scope of the conference. Papers may not be submitted concurrently to 
another conference with refereed proceedings. The PC chairs should be informed 
of closely related work submitted to a conference or a journal.

Papers authored or co-authored by members of the PC are not allowed.

At least one of the authors of each accepted paper is expected to register for 
the conference and attend it in person or online, in order to present their 
papers.

Submissions should be made via easychair: 
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=csl2022


Helena-Rasiowa-Award:

The Helena Rasiowa Award is the best student paper award for the CSL conference 
series,
starting from CSL 2022. The award will be given to the best paper (as decided 
by the PC) written solely by students or for which students were the main 
contributors. A student in this context is any person who is currently studying 
for a degree or whose PhD award date is less than one year prior to the first 
day of the conference.

CALL FOR TUTORIAL, PANEL, AND DISCUSSION PROPOSALS
ICFP 2020
 25th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming


   August 22 - 27, 2021
  Virtual
https://icfp21.sigplan.org/

The 25th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming
will be held virtually on August 22-27, 2021.
ICFP provides a forum for researchers and developers to hear about the 
latest work on the design, implementations, principles, and uses of 
functional programming.

Proposals are invited for tutorials, lasting approximately 3 hours each,
to be presented during ICFP and its co-located workshops and other
events. These tutorials are the successor to the CUFP tutorials from
previous years, but we also welcome tutorials whose primary audience is
researchers rather than practitioners. Tutorials may focus either on a
concrete technology or on a theoretical or mathematical tool. Ideally,
tutorials will have a concrete result, such as "Learn to do X with Y"
rather than "Learn language Y". 

Just like last year, following the success of the #ShutDownPL event @ ICFP, 
we are also inviting proposals for panels and discussions on topics of 
broader interest to the PL community.

Tutorials, panels, and discussions may occur before or after ICFP, 
co-located with the associated workshops, on August 22 or August 26-27.

Submission details
 Deadline for submission: June 28th, 2020
 Notification of acceptance:  July 5th, 2020

Prospective organizers of tutorials are invited to submit a completed
tutorial proposal form in plain text format to the ICFP 2021 workshop
co-chairs (Leonidas Lampropoulos and Zoe Paraskevopoulou), via email to

 icfp-workshops-2...@googlegroups.com

by June 28th, 2021. Please note that this is a firm deadline.

Organizers will be notified if their event proposal is accepted by
July 5th, 2021.

The proposal form is available at:

CALL FOR PAPERS:  MFPS XXXVII

37th Conference on Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics

August 30 - September 2, 2021

Online or hybrid, from Salzburg

Co-located with CALCO 2021

==

Paper submission:  June 14, 2021  AoE (NEW)

Author notification: August 2, 2021

Final version due:   August 16, 2021

==

We are delighted to announce the 37th Conference on the
Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics (MFPS
2021). MFPS 2021 will be hosted by the University of
Salzburg, Austria, and will take place on  August 30 -
September 2, 2021. Due to the pandemic situation, the
conference will take place online. Should the situation
improve and allow some international travel, we will do our
best to organize a small component of the meeting in
Salzburg for those participants who wish to attend the
meeting in person.

MFPS conferences are dedicated to the areas of mathematics,
logic, and computer science that are related to models of
computation in general, and to semantics of programming
languages in particular. This is a forum where researchers
in mathematics and computer science can meet and exchange
ideas. The participation of researchers in neighbouring
areas is strongly encouraged.

Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
bio-computation; concurrent qualitative and quantitative
distributed systems; constructive mathematics;  domain
theory and categorical models; formal languages; formal
methods; game semantics; lambda calculus; logic;
probabilistic systems; process calculi; programming-language
theory; quantum computation; security; topological models;
type systems; type theory. We also welcome contributions
that address applications of semantics to novel areas such
as complex systems, markets, and networks, for example.

MFPS 2021 is co-located with the 9th Conference on Algebra
and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2021).
