Apologies for cross-posting - Please forward to anybody who might be interested ** CALL FOR PAPERS ** The 35th International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP 2019) Applications Track September 20-25, 2019 Las Cruces, New Mexico (USA) https://www.cs.nmsu.edu/ALP/iclp2019/ - Objectives Logic programming (LP) has been widely adopted as a powerful declarative programming paradigm to build a variety of applications from research projects to industrial products, including bioinformatics, natural language understanding, robotics, etc. Motivated by such a wide range of applications, this year ICLP will have a special track dedicated to Applications of LP, to bring together LP researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry communities to share the recent advancement, challenge and insight for LP applications. The goal of the Application Track is two-folded. On the one side, it aims at providing a fresh impulse for the LP community to recast its interests towards solving practical problems and applications. On the other side, its goal is to attract representatives from the wider academia and industrial communities to discuss their challenges related to using LP in practical problems, applications and industrial products and their expectations of the development of theory and tools from LP community. Expected contributions The Applications Track at ICLP 2019 invites submissions of papers on emerging and deployed applications of LP, describing all aspects of the development, deployment, and evaluation of LP systems to solve real-world problems, including interesting case studies and benchmarks, and discussing lessons learned. We welcome LP applications in a wide range of areas, including but not limited to: * industrial applications * commonsense reasoning, knowledge representation * declarative problem solving * education * bioinformatics, computational biology * life sciences, genetics, medicine, pharmacology * cognitive robotics, social robotics, human-robot interactions * intelligent transportation, logistics * computer vision, sensing, internet of things * data analysis, machine learning * creative computing * digital forensics, cybersecurity, blockchain * economics, game theory, social choice * software engineering, intelligent user interfaces * multi-agent systems, argumentation, epistemic reasoning * constraint programming, SAT, SMT * natural language understanding, story telling, question answering * explanation generation, diagnosis * spatial/temporal/probabilistic reasoning * planning and scheduling * databases, ontologies, knowledge bases, Semantic Web Evaluation Criteria In this track, selection process of the highest quality papers will apply the following criteria: * Significance of the real-world problem being addressed * Importance and novelty of using logic programming technologies to solve this problem * Evaluation and applicability of the system in real-world * Reusability of datasets, case studies and benchmarks Important Dates * Abstract registration: April 27, 2019 * Paper submission: May 4, 2019 * Notification: June 19, 2019 * TPLP revision submission: July 3, 2019 * TPLP final notifications: July 17, 2019 * Camera-ready copy: July 31, 2017 * Conference: September 20-25, 2019 Submission Details All submissions must be written in English. * Regular papers (14 pages in TPLP format, including references) must describe original, previously unpublished research, and must not simultaneously be submitted for publication elsewhere. These restrictions do not apply to previously accepted workshop papers with a limited audience and/or without archival proceedings. The accepted regular papers will be published in TPLP, along with the selected ICLP-TPLP papers. The program committee may recommend some regular papers to be published as technical communications (TCs), along with the selected ICLP-TC papers. The authors of the TCs can also elect to convert their submissions into extended abstracts (2 or 3 pages) for inclusion in the OASIcs proceedings. This should allow authors to submit a long version elsewhere. * Short papers (7 pages in OASIcs format, including references) can describe published research. The accepted short papers that describe original and previously unpublished work will be published as TCs, along with the selected ICLP-TC papers. The accepted short papers that describe published research will be made available at the conference webpage, with the permission of the authors. All accepted regular papers and technical communications will be presented during the conference. Authors of accepted papers will, by default, be automatically included in the list of ALP members, who will receive quarterly updat
[Hol-info] CfP: RV2019 - Runtime Verification - EXTENDED DEADLINE
[ Apologize for Multiple Copies ] DEADLINE EXTENSION Abstract deadline May 21, 2019 Submission deadline May 21, 2019 Call for Papers RV 2019 19th International Conference on Runtime Verification Porto, Portugal October 8-11, 2019 NEW IN 2019: Benchmark Papers Track https://www.react.uni-saarland.de/rv2019/ # Scope Runtime verification is concerned with the monitoring and analysis of the runtime behaviour of software and hardware systems. Runtime verification techniques are crucial for system correctness, reliability, and robustness; they provide an additional level of rigor and effectiveness compared to conventional testing, and are generally more practical than exhaustive formal verification. Runtime verification can be used prior to deployment, for testing, verification, and debugging purposes, and after deployment for ensuring reliability, safety, and security and for providing fault containment and recovery as well as online system repair. Topics of interest to the conference include, but are not limited to: * specification languages for monitoring * monitor construction techniques * program instrumentation * logging, recording, and replay * combination of static and dynamic analysis * specification mining and machine learning over runtime traces * monitoring techniques for concurrent and distributed systems * runtime checking of privacy and security policies * metrics and statistical information gathering * program/system execution visualization * fault localization, containment, recovery and repair * dynamic type checking Application areas of runtime verification include cyber-physical systems, safety/mission critical systems, enterprise and systems software, cloud systems, autonomous and reactive control systems, health management and diagnosis systems, and system security and privacy. An overview of previous RV conferences and earlier workshops can be found at: http://www.runtime-verification.org. # Submissions All papers and tutorials will appear in the conference proceedings in an LNCS volume. Submitted papers and tutorials must use the LNCS/Springer style detailed here: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html Papers must be original work and not be submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers must be written in English and submitted electronically (in PDF format) using the EasyChair submission page here: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rv19 The page limitations mentioned below include all text and figures, but exclude references. Additional details omitted due to space limitations may be included in a clearly marked appendix, that will be reviewed at the discretion of reviewers, but not included in the proceedings. At least one author of each accepted paper and tutorial must attend RV 2019 to present. # Papers There are four categories of papers which can be submitted: regular, short, tool demo, and benchmark papers. Papers in each category will be reviewed by at least 3 members of the Program Committee. * Regular Papers (up to 15 pages, not including references) should present original unpublished results. We welcome theoretical papers, system papers, papers describing domain-specific variants of RV, and case studies on runtime verification. * Short Papers (up to 6 pages, not including references) may present novel but not necessarily thoroughly worked out ideas, for example emerging runtime verification techniques and applications, or techniques and applications that establish relationships between runtime verification and other domains. * Tool Demonstration Papers (up to 8 pages, not including references) should present a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to existing tools supporting runtime verification. The paper must include information on tool availability, maturity, selected experimental results and it should provide a link to a website containing the theoretical background and user guide. Furthermore, we strongly encourage authors to make their tools and benchmarks available with their submission. * Benchmark Papers (up to 10 pages, not including references, NEW IN 2019) should describe a benchmark, suite of benchmarks, or benchmark generator useful for evaluating RV tools. Papers will should include information as to what the benchmark consists of and its purpose (what is the domain), how to obtain and use the benchmark, an argument for the usefulness of the benchmark to the broader RV community, and may include any existing results produced using the benchmark. We are interested in both benchmarks pertaining to real-world scenarios and those containing synthetic data designed to achieve interesting properties. Broader definitions of benchmark e.g. for generating specifications from data or diagnosing faults are within scope. Finally, we encourage but do not require benchmarks
