[TYPES/announce] Multiple Research Positions (3 Doctoral, 5 Post-doctoral) on AI Verification
[ The Types Forum (announcements only), http://lists.seas.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/types-announce ] AI Secure and Explainable by Construction: Multiple Research Positions (3 Doctoral, 5 Post-doctoral) available at Heriot-Watt, Edinburgh and Strathclyde Universities, Scotland, UK. Start date: 1 September 2020; End date: 30 August 2023 Postdoctoral Salary Scale: £31,866 to £40,322 per annum PhD funding: covering PhD fees and stipend for 3.5 years Closing date for Postdoctoral applications: 1 June 2020 We encourage interested applicants to contact us informally ASAP. The project has sufficient flexibility to mitigate the effect of COVID-19, i.e. by accommodating later start date and remote working. The project spans several subjects: type theory, automated and interactive theorem proving, security, AI and machine learning, autonomous systems, natural language processing and generation, legal aspects of AI. It will cover two main application areas: autonomous cars and chatbots, drawing from expertise and infrastructure provided by industrial partners working in these two areas. The project has a significant international span, with 12 partners from Academia and Industry in Europe (France, Germany, Israel, the Netherlands, Norway) and the US. Researchers joining this project will have excellent opportunities to travel to international conferences, organise scientific events, spend time with industrial partners, collaborate with academic leaders in the field, develop their own research profiles as well as gain experience in other AI and CS disciplines.

[TYPES/announce] Off the Beaten Track 2017: Call for Participation
[ The Types Forum (announcements only), http://lists.seas.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/types-announce ] # Call for Participation: Off the Beaten Track 2017 http://conf.researchr.org/track/POPL-2017/OBT-2017 21st January 2017 (co-located with POPL 2017, Paris, France) ## Registration http://popl17.sigplan.org/attending/registration ** Early registration deadline: Saturday 17th Dec 2016 ** ## Invited Speakers - Moa Johansson, Chalmers, Sweden - Alan Blackwell, Cambridge University, UK ## Background Programming language researchers have the principles, tools, algorithms and abstractions to solve all kinds of problems, in all areas of computer science. However, identifying and evaluating new problems, particularly those that lie outside the typical core PL problems we all know and love, can be a significant challenge. This workshop’s goal is to identify and discuss problems that do not often show up in our top conferences, but where programming language research can make a substantial impact. We hope fora like this will increase the diversity of problems that are studied by PL researchers and thus increase our community’s impact on the world. While many workshops associated with POPL have become more like mini-conferences themselves, this is an anti-goal for OBT. The workshop will be informal and structured to encourage discussion. We are at least as interested in problems as in solutions. ## Programme 09:00-10:00 Invited talk: Reasoning about Functional Programs: Exploring, Testing and Inductive Proofs. Moa Johanssen 10:00-10:30 coffee break 10:30-10:55 Can we machine-learn programming language semantics?

While many workshops associated with POPL have become more like mini-conferences themselves, this is an anti-goal for OBT. The workshop will be informal and structured to encourage discussion. We are at least as interested in problems as in solutions. ## Scope A good submission is one that outlines a new problem or an interesting, underrepresented problem domain. Good submissions may also remind the PL community of problems that were once in vogue but have not recently been seen in top PL conferences. Good submissions do not need to propose complete or even partial solutions, though there should be some reason to believe that programming languages researchers have the tools necessary to search for solutions in the area at hand. Submissions that seem likely to stimulate discussion about the direction of programming language research are encouraged. Use your imagination. It's hard to imagine how a paper that discusses programming languages could be considered out of scope. If in doubt, ask the program chair. ## Previous OBTs 2017 marks the sixth year of OBT and its co-location with POPL.

Reviewers may or may not view linked documents; it is up to authors to convince the reviewers to do so. For each accepted submission, one of the authors will give a talk at the workshop. The length of the talk will depend on the submissions received and how the program committee decides to assemble the program. Reviewing of submissions will be very light. Authors should not expect a detailed analysis of their submission by the program committee. Accepted submissions will be posted as is on this web site. By submitting a document, you agree that if it is accepted, it may be posted and you agree that one of the co-authors will attend the workshop and give a talk there.

[TYPES/announce] 6 Month Postdoc Position
[ The Types Forum (announcements only), http://lists.seas.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/types-announce ] 6 Month Postdoc Position Mathematically Structured Programming Group University of Strathclyde Scotland We have the potential to apply for funds for a 6 month post doctoral position. The idea is that the successful candidate would spend those 6 months writing a full scale grant to fund themselves for the next 3 years. The postdoctoral position would be within the Mathematically Structured Programing group at the University of Strathclyde whose research focusses on category theory, type theory and functional programming. Current staff include Neil Ghani, Patricia Johann, Conor McBride, Peter Hancock, Robert Atkey and 6 PhD students. The candidate we are looking for should be highly self motivated and appreciate that without beauty, we are lost. Unfortunately, the deadline is extremely short and so any interested candidates should contact me immediately. I can then tell you more about what we would need to do.
