Workshop Domains XIII CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

https://andrejbauer.github.io/domains-floc-2018/

Date: 7-8 July 2018
as part of FLoC 2018 - The Federated Logic Colloquium, in Oxford
http://www.floc2018.org


 Fifty years of domain theory

  Fifty years ago, Dana Scott introduced domain theory for the
  purposes of denotational semantics of programming languages when he
  was in Oxford, where he worked with Christopher Strachey. This work
  has had a vast and lasting impact on logic, computer science, and
  mathematics. As part of the Workshop DOMAINS’2018, which will take
  place in Oxford on 7–8 July 2018, we will celebrate 50 years of
  domain theory and Dana Scott’s 85th birthday. The event is
  affiliated with the Federated Logic Conference 2018 and LICS.

We will also commemorate Klaus Keimel, the founder of the workshop
Domains series.

About the Domains Workshop series

  The applications of domain theory include programming logics (LCF),
  design of programming languages, models of the lambda calculus,
  applications to recursion theory (higher-type computability,
  Kleene-Kreisel countable functionals), general topology (injective
  spaces, function spaces, locally compact spaces, Stone duality),
  topological algebra (Lawson semilattices) and analysis (measure,
  integration, dynamical systems). Moreover, these applications are
  related – for example, Stone duality has given rise to a logic of
  observable properties of computational processes.

  The Domains workshop series is aimed at computer scientists and
  mathematicians alike who share an interest in the mathematical
  foundations of computation. The workshop series focuses on domains,
  their applications in mathematics and computer science, and related
  topics. Previous meetings were held in Darmstadt (1994, 1999, 2004),
  Braunschweig (1996), Munich (1997), Siegen (1998), Birmingham
  (2002), Novosibirsk (2007), Brighton (2008), Swansea (2011), Paris
  (2014), and Cork (2015).

Topics of interaction with domain theory for this workshop include,
but are not limited to

  - program semantics
  - program logics
  - probabilistic computation
  - exact computation over the real numbers
  - lambda calculus
  - games
  - models of sequential computation
  - constructive mathematics
  - recursion theory
  - realizability
  - real analysis and computability
  - topology, metric spaces and domains
  - idempotent analysis and domains
  - locale theory
  - category theory
  - topos theory
  - type theory

  - Dana Scott (CMU)

Dear all,

We're a bit short of submissions for GaLoP so we're extending the 
deadline to 3 February.  This is an area with lots of connections to 
different fields, so if you're doing anything related, then please use 
the workshop as an opportunity to share it with the community.  Work in 
progress is very much welcome.


Also I can now confirm our invited speakers: they are Cormac Flanagan of 
the University of California, Santa Cruz, and John Longley of the 
University of Edinburgh.


Best regards,
Paul

11th Workshop on Games for Logic and Programming Languages (GaLoP 2016)

Eindhoven, Netherlands, 2-3 April

http://www.gamesemantics.org

GaLoP is an annual international workshop on game-semantic models for
logics and programming languages and their applications. This is an
informal workshop that welcomes work in progress, overviews of more
extensive work, programmatic or position papers and tutorials.

GaLoP XI will be held in Eindhoven, Netherlands, on 2-3 April 2016 as a 
satellite

workshop of ETAPS (http://www.etaps.org/).

Areas of interest include:
   * Games and other interaction-based denotational and operational 
models;

   * Games-based program analysis and verification;
   * Logics for games and games for logics;
   * Algorithmic aspects of game semantics;
   * Categorical aspects of game semantics;
   * Programming languages and full abstraction;
   * Higher-order automata and Petri nets;
   * Geometry of interaction;
   * Ludics;
   * Epistemic game theory;
   * Logics of dependence and independence;
   * Computational linguistics;
   * Games and multi-valued logics.

There will be no formal proceedings but the possibility of a special
issue in a journal will be considered. (The 2005, 2008, 2011 and 2014
workshops led to special issues in Annals of Pure and Applied Logic.)

// Submission Instructions //

Please submit either a text abstract or a PDF of up to one page, 
excluding bibliography, of your proposed talk on the easychair 
submission page below. Supplementary material may be submitted, and will
