  Final Call for Talks and Papers
   WiL 2019: 3rd Women in Logic Workshop
 Vancouver, Canada
   23 June 2019
https://sites.google.com/site/womeninlogic2019/home


** New dates including extended submission deadline: 21 April 2019

Affiliated with the Thirty-Fourth Annual ACM/IEEE Symposium on Logic in
Computer Science (LICS), 24-27 June 2019 (https://lics.siglog.org/lics19/).

We are holding the third Women in Logic Workshop (WiL 2019) as a LICS
associated workshop on 23 June 2019. The workshop follows the pattern
of meetings such as Women in Machine Learning (WiML,
wimlworkshop.org/) or Women in Engineering (WIE,
www.ieee-ras.org/membership/women-in-engineering) that have been
taking place for quite a few years.

Women are chronically underrepresented in the LiCS community. The
workshop will provide an opportunity for women in the field to
increase awareness of one another and one another’s work, to combat
the feeling of isolation. It will also provide an environment where
women can present to an audience comprising mostly women, replicating
the experience that most men have at most LiCS meetings, and lowering
the stress of the occasion; we hope that this will be particularly
attractive to early-career women.

Previous versions of Women in Logic (Reykjavik, Iceland 2017 and
Oxford, UK 2018) were very successful in showcasing women's work and
as catalysts for recognition of the need for change in the
community. Our extended program committee tries to cover most areas of
Logic in Computer Science.  These include but are not limited to the
usual Logic in Computer Science (LICS) topics. These are: automata
theory, automated deduction, categorical models and logics,
concurrency and distributed computation, constraint programming,
constructive mathematics, database theory, decision procedures,
description logics, domain theory, finite model theory, formal aspects
of program analysis, formal methods, foundations of computability,
games and logic, higher-order logic, lambda and combinatory calculi,
linear logic, logic in artificial intelligence, logic programming,
logical aspects of bioinformatics, logical aspects of computational
complexity, logical aspects of quantum computation, logical
frameworks, logics of programs, modal and temporal logics, model
checking, probabilistic systems, process calculi, programming language
semantics, proof theory, real-time systems, reasoning about security
and privacy, rewriting, type systems and type theory, and
verification.

AIMS AND SCOPE  

 Since its introduction in the late 1980s, Answer Set Programming (ASP) has 
been widely applied to 
 various knowledge-intensive tasks and combinatorial search problems. ASP was 
found to be
 closely related to SAT, which led to a new method of computing answer sets 
using SAT solvers and
 techniques adapted from SAT. This has been a much studied relationship, and is 
currently extended
 towards satisfiability modulo theories (SMT). The relationship of ASP to other 
computing paradigms,
 such as constraint satisfaction, quantified Boolean formulas (QBF), Constraint 
Logic Programming
 (CLP), first-order logic (FOL), and FO(ID) is also the subject of active 
research. Consequently, new
 methods of computing answer sets are being developed based on relationships to 
these formalisms.

 Furthermore, the practical applications of ASP also foster work on 
multi-paradigm problem-solving, 
 and in particular language and solver integration. The most prominent examples 
in this area
 currently are the integration of ASP with description logics (in the realm of 
the Semantic Web) and
 constraint satisfaction (which recently led to the Constraint Answer Set 
Programming (CASP)
 research direction).

 A large body of general results regarding ASP is available and several 
efficient ASP solvers have
 been implemented. However, there are still significant challenges in applying 
ASP to real life
 applications, and more interest in relating ASP to other computing paradigms 
is emerging. This 
 workshop will provide opportunities for researchers to identify these 
challenges and to exchange
 ideas for overcoming them.   

TOPICS  
 Topics of interests include (but are not limited to):  
 - ASP and classical logic formalisms (SAT/FOL/QBF/SMT/DL). 
 - ASP and constraint programming.  
 - ASP and other logic programming paradigms, e.g., FO(ID). 
 - ASP and other nonmonotonic languages, e.g., action languages.
 - ASP and external means of computation.   
 - ASP and probabilistic reasoning. 
 - ASP and knowledge compilation.   
 - ASP and machine learning.
 - New methods of computing answer sets using algorithms or systems of  
   other paradigms. 
 - Language extensions to ASP.  
 - ASP and multi-agent systems. 
 - ASP and multi-context systems.

[Hol-info] 6th Workshop on Proof eXchange for Theorem Proving (PxTP) - CFP

2019-04-03 Thread geoff
[My apologies if you receive this in duplicate]

Call for Papers, PxTP 2019

The Sixth International Workshop on
 Proof eXchange for Theorem Proving (PxTP)

   http://pxtp.gforge.inria.fr/2019/

   25-26 August 2019, Natal, Brazil

   associated with the CADE-27 conference


## Background

  The PxTP workshop brings together researchers working on various aspects of
  communication, integration, and cooperation between reasoning systems and
  formalisms.

  The progress in computer-aided reasoning, both automatic and interactive,
  during the past decades, has made it possible to build deduction tools that
  are increasingly more applicable to a wider range of problems and are able to
  tackle larger problems progressively faster. In recent years, cooperation of
  such tools in larger verification environments has demonstrated the potential
  to reduce the amount of manual intervention.  Examples include the
  Sledgehammer tool providing an interface between Isabelle and (untrusted)
  automated provers, and collaboration of the HOL Light and Isabelle systems in
  the formal proof of the Kepler conjecture.

  Cooperation between reasoning systems relies on availability of theoretical
  formalisms and practical tools for exchanging problems, proofs, and
  models. The PxTP workshop strives to encourage such cooperation by inviting
  contributions on suitable integration, translation, and communication methods,
  standards, protocols, and programming interfaces. The workshop welcomes
  developers of automated and interactive theorem proving tools, developers of
  combined systems, developers and users of translation tools and interfaces,
  and producers of standards and protocols.  We are interested both in success
  stories and descriptions of current bottlenecks and proposals for improvement.

## Topics

  Topics of interest for this workshop include all aspects of cooperation
  between reasoning tools, whether automatic or interactive. More specifically,
  some suggested topics are:

  * applications that integrate reasoning tools (ideally with certification of
the result);
  * interoperability of reasoning systems;
  * translations between logics, proof systems, models;
  * distribution of proof obligations among heterogeneous reasoning tools;
  * algorithms and tools for checking and importing (replaying, reconstructing)
proofs;
  * proposed formats for expressing problems and solutions for different classes
of logic solvers (SAT, SMT, QBF, first-order logic, higher-order logic,
typed logic, rewriting, etc.);
  * meta-languages, logical frameworks, communication methods, standards,
protocols, and APIs related to problems, proofs, and models;
  * comparison, refactoring, transformation, migration, compression and
optimization of proofs;
  * data structures and algorithms for improved proof production in
solvers (e.g., efficient proof representations);
  * (universal) libraries, corpora and benchmarks of proofs and theories;
  * alignment of diverse logics, concepts and theories across systems and
libraries;
  * engineering aspects of proofs
(e.g., granularity, flexiformality, persistence over time);
  * proof certificates;
  * proof checking;
  * mining of (mathematical) information from proofs
(e.g., quantifier instantiations, unsat cores, interpolants, ...);
  * reverse engineering and understanding of formal proofs;
  * universality of proofs
(i.e. interoperability of proofs between different proof calculi);
  * origins and kinds of proofs
(e.g., (in)formal, automatically generated, interactive, ...)
  * Hilbert's 24th Problem (i.e. what makes a proof better than another?);
  * social aspects (e.g., community-wide initiatives related to proofs,
cooperation between communities, the future of (formal) proofs);
  * applications relying on importing proofs from automatic theorem provers,
such as certified static analysis, proof-carrying code, or certified
compilation;
  * application-oriented proof theory;
  * practical experiences, case studies, feasibility studies.

## Submissions

  Researchers interested in participating are invited to submit either an
  extended abstract (up to 8 pages) or a regular paper (up to 15 pages).
  Submissions will be refereed by the program committee, which will select a
  balanced program of high-quality contributions. Short submissions that could
  stimulate fruitful discussion at the workshop are particularly welcome. We
  expect that one author of every accepted paper will present their work at the
  workshop.

  Submitted papers should describe previously unpublished work, and must
  be prepared using the LaTeX EPTCS class (http://style.eptcs.org/).
  Papers will be submitted via EasyChair, at the PxTP'2019 workshop page
  (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pxtp2019).
  Accepted regular papers will appear in an EPTCS volume.

ICLP 2019 Sister Conferences and Journal Presentation Track - Call for Papers

The program committee of the 35th International Conference on Logic Programming 
(ICLP) invites submissions of published journal papers and papers presented at 
related conferences for the Sister Conferences and Journal Presentation Track.
The track is designed to provide a forum to discuss important results related 
to logic programming that appeared since 2017 in selective journals or were 
presented recently at related conferences but, but that have not been 
previously presented at ICLP.
The goal of this track is twofold:

  *   To provide authors an opportunity to present at the conference important 
results published in journals that might otherwise not be submitted to the 
conference due to their length and complexity. Papers that differ from 
traditional ICLP format and topics are welcome.
  *   To broaden the program with lines of work at the intersection between 
logic programming and related fields such as for example constraint 
programming, operations research, control, knowledge representation and 
reasoning, machine learning, multi-agent systems, robotics, computer games, and 
cognitive science. Papers that use logic programming in some innovative way are 
welcome.

Paper Presentation
All accepted submissions will be presented orally during the conference - at 
least one author is expected to register to ICLP 2019 and to present the paper 
in person. Complete citations and URLs of the original papers (if available 
from the publisher) will be published on the ICLP 2019 web site as a permanent 
reference. A 2-page extended abstract summarizing the line of research leading 
to the presented results can optionally be submitted for presentation in the 
technical communications of ICLP.

Submission Requirements
Submissions must meet the following criteria:

  *   Candidate papers must be published in a journal such as (but not limited 
to) AIJ, ACM TOCL, JAIR, or other leading journals or in the proceedings of 
related conferences such as KR, LPNMR, AAMAS, AAAI, IJCAI, ECAI, ICAPS, SAT, 
ICML, ICDT, PODS, VLDB, WWW, ISWC, ESWC, DL, JELIA.
  *   Candidate papers must have appeared since 2017.
  *   Papers that are in press may be submitted as long as the final 
camera-ready version is available.
  *   Extensions of papers that have been previously presented at ICLP are not 
eligible for this track.

Submission Process
All submissions will be done via EasyChair 
(https://easychair.org/conferences/overview.cgi?a=20693669). The submission 
will be in the following format:

  *   Title of the original journal paper (to be published on the Web);
  *   Complete reference of the original paper (to be published on the Web);
  *   URL where the paper can be downloaded from the publisher (if available) 
(to be published on the Web);
  *   An accompanying letter containing an explanation of why this paper is 
interesting to the logic programming community (in PDF);
  *   A copy of the paper with its final camera-ready contents (in PDF).
  *   A 2-page extended abstract of the paper (in PDF, LNCS format) (optional: 
only if the authors wish to publish such an extended abstract in the technical 
communications of ICLP).

Submissions will go through a selection process. Selection criteria include 
significance of the results and relevance to the logic programming community.

Important Dates

  *   Submission deadline: June 27th, 2019
  *   Notification of acceptance: July 15, 2019

[Apologies for multiple postings]

--  First Call for Papers --

ASYDE 2019: 1st International Workshop on on Automated and verifiable Software 
sYstem DEvelopment, co-located with the 17th International Conference on 
Software Engineering and Formal Methods (SEFM 2019), Oslo, Norway - September 
16, 2019

During the last three decades, automation in software development has gone 
mainstream. Software development teams strive to automate as much of the 
software development activities as possible. Automation helps, in fact, to 
reduce development time and cost, as well as to concentrate knowledge by 
bringing quality into every step of the development process. Realizing 
high-quality software systems requires producing software that is efficient, 
errorfree, cost-effective, and that satisfies customer requirements. Thus, one 
of the most crucial factors impacting software quality concerns not only the 
automation of the development process but also the ability to verify the 
outcomes of each process activity and the goodness of the resulting software 
product as well.

ASYDE 2019 provides a forum for researchers and practitioners to propose and 
discuss on automated software development methods and techniques, compositional 
verification theories, integration architectures, flexible and dynamic 
composition, and automated planning mechanisms. ASYDE 2019 welcomes research 
papers, (industrial) experience papers and case-studies, tool demonstrations 
and visionary papers; nevertheless, papers describing novel research 
contributions and innovative applications are of particular interest. Details 
on workshop goals and themes can be found at: http://asyde2019.disim.univaq.it/

Railway Applications – Cybersecurity:  CENELEC TS 50701
CyberSecurity is a relatively new topic which has become very important, not 
only
for railways, but for all Critical Infrastructures. CENELEC has therefore 
decided
to work on a railway specific adaptation and interpretation of the emerging IACS
CyberSecurity Standard IEC 62443. The upcoming prTS 50701 will be released as
a draft in mid 2019, which will make available a CyberSecurity standard that 
covers
not just Signalling, Rolling Stock, or Fixed Installations, but the whole 
Railway System.
After release of the TS, a good tool for fulfilling the NIS directive, as well 
as the national
transpositions will be made available, due to the participation of ERA and 
ENISA in
the working group.
In the workshop, experts from the working group responsible for TS 50701 will 
present
and discuss various key aspects such as: life cycle, system definition, risk 
analysis and
security, operation and maintenance requirements.
