TIMELINE:

Paper submission1st June 2023
Author notification 28th June 2023
Camera ready copy   18th July 2023
Workshop8th Sept 2023

BACKGROUND:

"Functional Software Architecture" refers to methods of construction
and structure of large and long-lived software projects that are
implemented in functional languages and released to real users,
typically in industry.  The goals for the workshop are:

- To assemble a community interested in software architecture
  techniques and technologies specific to functional programming;

- To identify, categorize, and document topics relevant to
  the field of functional software architecture;

- To connect the functional programming community to the software
  architecture community to cross-pollinate between the two.

The workshop follows on from the Functional Software Architecture
open space that was held at ICFP 2022 in Slovenia.

SCOPE:

The workshop seeks submissions in a range of categories:

- You're a member of the FP community and have thought about how
  to support programming in the large, for example by framing
  functional ideas in architectural terms or vice verse, comparing
  different languages in terms of their architectural capabilities,
  clarifying architectural roles played by formal methods, proof
  assistants and DSLs, or observing how functional concepts are
  used in other language and architecture communities.

  Great, submit a research paper!

- You're a member of the architecture community, and have thought
  about how your discipline might help functional programmers, for
  example by applying domain-driven design, implementing hexagonal
  architecture, or designing self-contained systems.

  Excellent, submit a research paper!

- You've worked on a large project using functional programming,
  and it's worked out well, or terribly, or a mix of both; bonus
  points for deriving architectural principles from your experience.

  Wonderful, submit an experience report!

- You know a neat architectural idiom or pattern that may be useful
  to others developing large functional software systems.

  Fabulous, submit an architectural pearl!

- You have something that doesn't fit the above categories, but
  that still relates to functional software architecture, such 
  as something that can be written up, or that could be part of
  the workshop format like a panel debate or a fishbowl.

  Superb, submit to the open category!

Research papers should explain their research contributions in both
general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished,
explaining why it is significant, and relating it to previous work,
and to other languages where appropriate.

Experience reports and architectural pearls need not necessarily
report original research results.  The key criterion for such papers
is that they make a contribution from which others can benefit.
It is not enough simply to describe a large software system, or
to present ideas that are specific to a particular system.

Open category submissions that are not intended for publication 
are not required to follow the formatting guidelines, and can 
submit in PDF, word or plain text format as preferred.

If you are unsure whether your contribution is suitable, or if
you need any kind of help with your submission, please email
the program chairs at .

SUBMISSION:

Papers must be submitted by 1st June 2023 using EasyChair, via the
following link: 
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tinyurl.com/FUNARCH23-submit__;!!IBzWLUs!SNyK-QS5VEg2-LqRRjItlJLn1kJEouG5GI1hbhI9rXak4stZjB3imVncmTLvp9tkq6cTgGOW5XaorRZ-eFgvwpzVn4DIGayNK1IF$
 

Formatting: submissions intended for publication must be in PDF
format and follow the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines, using the
acmart format and the sigplan sub-format.  Please use the review
option, as this enables line numbers for easy reference in reviews.
For further details, see:

* OVERVIEW

HOR is a forum to present work concerning all aspects of higher-order
rewriting.

HOR aims to provide an informal and friendly setting to discuss recent
work and work in progress concerning higher-order rewriting, broadly
construed. This includes rewriting systems that have functional
variables or bound variables, the lambda-calculus and combinatory
logic being paradigmatic examples.

* TOPICS

The following is a non-exhaustive list of topics for the workshop:

 - Applications: proof checking, theorem proving, generic
   programming, declarative programming, program transformation,
   automated termination/confluence/equivalence analysis tools.

 - Foundations: pattern matching, unification, strategies, narrowing,
   termination, syntactic properties, type theory, complexity of
   derivations.

 - Frameworks: term rewriting, conditional rewriting, graph
   rewriting, net rewriting, comparisons of different frameworks.

 - Implementation: explicit substitution, rewriting tools,
   compilation techniques.

 - Semantics: semantics of higher-order rewriting, categorical
   rewriting, higher-order abstract syntax, games and rewriting.

Qualifications:

 - A Ph.D. dissertation on a topic concerning Logic, Language, or
Information is eligible for the Beth Dissertation Prize 2023, if the degree
was awarded  between January 1st and December 31st, 2022.
 - There are no restrictions on the nationality, ethnicity, age, gender or
employment status of the author of the nominated dissertation, nor on the
university, academic department or scientific institution formally
conferring the Ph.D. degree, nor on the language in which the dissertation
has originally been written.
 -  In accordance with the aim of the Beth Foundation to continue and
extend the work of the Dutch logician Evert Willem Beth, nominations are
invited of excellent dissertations on topics in the broad remit of ESSLLI,
including current topics in philosophical and mathematical logic, computer
science logic, philosophy of science, philosophy of language, history of
logic, history of the philosophy of science and scientific philosophy in
general, as well as the current theoretical and foundational developments
in information and computation, language, and cognition. Dissertations with
results more broadly impacting various research areas in their
interdisciplinary investigations are especially solicited.
 -  If a nominated dissertation has originally been written in a language
other than English, its dossier should still contain the required 10 page
English abstract, see below. If the committee decides that a nominated
dissertation in a language other than English requires translation to

QEST 2023: Third Call for Papers with Deadline Extension
20th International Conference on Quantitative Evaluation of SysTems (QEST)
20-22 September 2023, Antwerp, Belgium

Co-located with CONCUR, FMICS, and FORMATS as part of CONFEST 2023

https://www.uantwerpen.be/en/conferences/confest-2023/


Deadlines extended: 

Abstract deadline: 30 April 2023 (extended to May 8)
Paper deadline: 7 May 2023 (extended to May 17)


** Scope and Topics

The International Conference on Quantitative Evaluation of SysTems (QEST) is the leading forum for the quantitative evaluation and verification of systems. Systems of interest include biological and chemical systems; computer networks; cyber-physical systems; critical infrastructures; data-driven AI systems; energy systems; hardware and software systems; industrial systems; and mobility networks.
QEST 2023 is the 20th conference in the series and will be held on 19-22 September 2023 in Antwerp, Belgium, as part of the CONFEST 2023 umbrella conference. 
Topics and scientific areas of interest include:

	• languages and methods for the specification of quantitative properties of systems;
	• quantitative and probabilistic aspects of programming;
	• stochastic, probabilistic, and non-deterministic models and
	• metrics for the correctness,
	  performance, reliability, safety, and security of systems;
	• algorithms for the evaluation and verification of
	• stochastic,
	  probabilistic, and non-deterministic models;
	• data-driven and machine-learning techniques for the
	• analysis, prediction, and verification
	  of quantitative properties of systems;
	• case studies that highlight the role of quantitative
	• specification, modelling,
	  and evaluation in the design and analysis of systems, with
	• emphasis on emerging problems
	  and technologies;
	• novel tools to support the practical application of research
	  results in all of the above areas.

QEST 2023 will set up an artifact evaluation process (details below). QEST 2023 is open to theoretical, experimental, and applicative research. The conference welcomes a diversity of modelling formalisms, programming languages, and methodologies that incorporate quantitative aspects such as probabilities, temporal properties, rewards, and forms of non-determinism. Papers may advance the state of the art on empirical approaches, simulation methods, analysis techniques, and applications to industrially relevant case studies.


** Invited Speakers

QEST 2023 features a list of invited speakers that are partially shared with the other CONFEST 2023 conferences. 

QEST invited speakers: 

Frans A. Oliehoek, TU Delft, Netherlands
David Parker, Oxford University, UK

CONFEST invited speakers: 

Ahmed Bouajjani, Paris Diderot University, France
Joost-Pieter Katoen, RWTH Aachen, Germany
Nicolas Markey, University of Rennes, France
Jaco van de Pol, Aarhus University, Denmark
Anna Slobodova, Intel, USA


** Submissions

QEST 2023 considers three types of papers (authors will be able to specify the type of contribution upon submission):

	• Research papers: Theoretical, methodological, and application-based contributions that advance
			   the understanding on a topic or issue, describe the development of new analysis
			   processes  and techniques, or apply quantitative methods to relevant case studies.
			   
	• Tool papers: New tools and the formalisms they support. focusing on the software architecture and practical
		   implementation and use. Tool papers must be accompanied by an artifact in the Artifact Evaluation.
		   
	• Work-in-progress papers: We offer an opportunity to present preliminary results and receive feedback from
		   the community. Work-in-progress contributions are not required to be fully worked-out approaches,
		   for example regarding validation or technical depth; however the presented ideas should be
		   mature enough to appreciate soundness and how they advance our knowledge.

Research and tool papers can be regular or short:

	• Regular papers must not exceed 14 pages, excluding references.
	• Short papers should be limited to 7 pages, also excluding references.

All papers can have an appendix containing supporting material. Note
that reviewers are not required to read the appendix to fully assess
the merits of the paper. Work-in-progress papers must not exceed 4
pages including references. All papers must be submitted in Springer’s
LNCS format. All submitted papers must be unpublished and not be
submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers should be submitted
electronically using EasyChair via 
https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=qest2023

Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers.
Authors should consult Springer's authors' guidelines and use Springer's LaTeX templates for the preparation of their papers.

The Coq Workshop 2023 is the 14th installment of the Coq Workshop 
series. The workshop brings together users, contributors, and developers 
of the Coq proof assistant.


The Coq Workshop focuses on strengthening the Coq community and 
providing a forum for discussing practical issues, including the future 
of the Coq software, piece of software based on type theory and its 
associated ecosystem of libraries and tools. Thus, rather than serving 
as a venue for traditional research papers, the workshop is organized 
around informal presentations and discussions, supplemented with invited 
talks.
