*** SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO FEBRUARY 2nd 2009 *** *** Note that only a short abstract is required *** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GaLoP IV: 4th Workshop on Games for Logic and Programming Languages (satellite event of ETAPS 2009) *** CALL FOR PAPERS *** York, United Kingdom 28-29 March 2009 http://web.comlab.ox.ac.uk/galop09/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GaLoP is an annual international workshop on game-semantic models for logics and programming languages and their applications. This is an informal workshop that welcomes work in progress, overviews of more extensive work, programmatic or position papers and tutorials as well as contributed papers. Accordingly, we ask for submission of both short abstracts outlining what will be presented at the workshop and longer papers describing completed work, either published or unpublished. The fourth GaLoP will be held in York (UK) between March 28 and 29 and will be part of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software (ETAPS 2009). Contributions are invited on all pertinent subjects. Typical (but not exclusive) areas are: - games and categorical semantics, - algorithmic aspects of games, - programming languages and full abstraction, - semantics of logics and proof systems, - proof search, - program verification and model checking, - program analysis, - theories of concurrency. There will be no formal proceedings. In previous years, a special issue of the Annals of Pure and Applied Logic has been produced, and this possibility will be pursued again this year. * Submission Link http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=galop09 * Important Dates Submission deadline: February 2nd (extended!)
