Published by: IEEE Xplore (in cooperation with IEEE Computer Society)

We believe that the quality of the source code that millions of programmers
write every day could be much higher than it is now. We believe that the
contribution computer science can make to improve this situation is greatly
undervalued. We aim to solve this problem by gathering together
cutting-edge researchers and letting them share their most recent ideas on
static analysis, program verification, bug detection, and software
maintenance.

Due to the pandemic situation, the conference will be held in online mode:
all speakers will present their work remotely over Zoom.

Paper/abstract submission: 18 Dec 2022 (anywhere on Earth)
Author notification: 1 Mar 2023

PUBLICATIONS

We consider the following criteria when evaluating papers. Novelty: The
paper presents new ideas and results and places them appropriately within
the context established by previous research. Importance: The paper
contributes to the advancement of knowledge in the field. We also welcome
papers that diverge from the dominant trajectory of the field. Evidence:
The paper presents sufficient evidence supporting its claims, such as
proofs, implemented systems, experimental results, statistical analyses,
case studies, and anecdotes. Clarity: The paper presents its contributions,
methodology, and results clearly.

Papers will be reviewed by three PC members using a double-blind review
process.

Submissions must be in PDF, printable in black and white on US Letter sized
paper. All submissions must adhere to the ACM Small template (sigplan, two
columns, 11pt font size). Submitted papers must be at least 4 and at most
16 pages long, including bibliographical references and appendices. Please,
submit via EasyChair:

*# Formal Methods Teaching Workshop (FMTea 2023)*

*

6 March 2023 --- Affiliated with Formal Methods 2023


INVITED SPEAKER


Erika Abraham, RWTH Aachen (Title to be announced)


IMPORTANT DATES


 * 11 November 2022 : NEW Deadline for submission of papers
 *

   5 December 2022: Notifications to authors

 *

   5 January 2023: Deadline for camera-ready version

 *

   6 March 2023: FMTea 2023 Workshop


OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE


Formal Methods provide software engineering with tools and techniques 
for rigorously reasoning about the correctness of systems. While in 
recent years formal methods are increasingly being used in industry, 
university curricula are not adapting at the same pace. Some existing 
formal methods classes interest and challenge students, whereas others 
fail to ignite student motivation. It is thus important to develop, 
share, and discuss approaches to effectively teach formal methods to the 
next generations. This discussion is now more important than ever due to 
the challenges and opportunities that arose from the pandemic, which 
forced many educators to adapt and deliver their teaching online. 
Exchange of ideas is critical to making these new online approaches a 
success and having a greater reach.



We envision this event as a one-day combination of keynote and workshop 
presentations, where various models of teaching are presented and 
explored, together with innovative approaches relevant for educators of 
Formal Methods in the 21st century.

TOPICS


We aim to attract papers detailing authors’ experiences with FM 
Teaching. We would like to get papers discussing successes and failures 
of various methods, case studies, tools, etc. As self-learning seems to 
be an important aspect of FM teaching, we appreciate experiences with 
online teaching, including experiences with teaching formal methods via 
MOOCs. A non-exhaustive list of topics of interest for the FMTea23 
workshop is below:



 *

   Experiences and proposals related with “traditional” FM learning and
   teaching

 *

   Experiences and proposals related with online FM learning and teaching

 *

   Integrating/embedding FM teaching/thinking within other computer
   science courses

 *

   Teaching FM for industry

 *

   Student projects on FM, including group projects

 *

   Innovative learning and teaching methods for FM


Computer science is transforming into a rigorous engineering discipline. 
Improved teaching techniques will ensure that FM is at the heart of this 
transformation process.



ORGANIZATION


FMTea 2023 is organized by FME’s Teaching Committee. Our broad aim is to 
support a worldwide improvement in learning Formal Methods, mainly by 
teaching but also via self-learning. To that end, we have already 
gathered a list of FM courses taught worldwide 
(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://fme-teaching.github.io__;!!IBzWLUs!QiuyZjIaQ-BTl2WxuMo-J5gDJvqqBicnFGFWJotTnF-lbnTWAHj_QU-7_7dL95ii-ccC6RRXH-_-4pZGkdfZdbfqdFNJM9kUGRDu3K4BiEk$  ) and plan to collect other resources as 
well, such as FM case studies, FM inspirational papers, etc.


Furthermore, the FME Teaching Committee coordinates a tutorial series, 
held online via zoom. Tutorials are collected on the FME Teaching 
Committee website (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://fme-teaching.github.io/__;!!IBzWLUs!QiuyZjIaQ-BTl2WxuMo-J5gDJvqqBicnFGFWJotTnF-lbnTWAHj_QU-7_7dL95ii-ccC6RRXH-_-4pZGkdfZdbfqdFNJM9kUGRDumtd5nHs$  ).

[TYPES/announce] Postdoc position in automata and concurrency theory, at the University of Warsaw

2022-11-07 Thread Sławomir Lasota
[ The Types Forum (announcements only),
 http://lists.seas.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/types-announce ]

We invite applications of motivated and research-focused individuals to
carry out research on Petri nets and their extensions as part of the NCN
project "Data-enriched models of computation". The project aims at
advancing theoretical foundations at the borderline  between automata
theory, concurrency and formal verification. The successful candidate
will be hosted by the automata theory group at the University of Warsaw,
offering a vibrant working atmosphere, and exciting and challenging
research problems.
