CALL FOR PAPERS: TACAS 2007 Thirteenth International Conference on Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems www.doc.ic.ac.uk/tacas07/ Part of ETAPS 2007, March 24 - April 1, 2007, Braga, Portugal IMPORTANT DATES * 6 Oct 2006: Submission deadline (strict) for abstracts of research and tool demonstration papers * 13 Oct 2006: Submission deadline (strict) for full versions of research and tool demonstration papers * 8 Dec 2006: Notification of acceptance * 5 Jan 2007: Camera-ready versions due CONFERENCE DESCRIPTION TACAS is a forum for researchers, developers and users interested in rigorously based tools and algorithms for the construction and analysis of systems. The conference serves to bridge the gaps between different communities that share common interests in, and techniques for, tool development and its algorithmic foundations. The research areas covered by such communities include but are not limited to formal methods, software and hardware verification, static analysis, programming languages, software engineering, real-time systems, communications protocols, and biological systems. The TACAS forum provides a venue for such communities at which common problems, heuristics, algorithms, data structures and methodologies can be discussed and explored. In doing so, TACAS aims to support researchers in their quest to improve the utility, reliability, flexibility and efficiency of tools and algorithms for building systems. Tool descriptions and case studies with a conceptual message, as well as theoretical papers with clear relevance for tool construction are all encouraged. The specific topics covered by the conference include, but are not limited to, the following: * Specification and verification techniques for finite and infinite-state systems * Software and hardware verification * Theorem-proving and model-checking * System construction and transformation techniques * Static and run-time analysis * Abstraction techniques for modeling and validation * Compositional and refinement-based methodologies * Testing and test-case generation * Analytical techniques for secure, real-time, hybrid, critical, biological or dependable systems * Integration of formal methods and static analysis in high-level hardware design or software environments * Tool environments and tool architectures * SAT solvers * Applications and case studies As TACAS addresses a heterogeneous audience, potential authors are strongly encouraged to write about their ideas and findings in general and jargon- independent, rather than in application- and domain-specific, terms. Authors reporting on tools or case studies are strongly encouraged to indicate how their experimental results can be reproduced and confirmed independently. PROGRAMME COMMITTEE Christel Baier (U.

Leino (Microsoft Research, USA) SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Papers should be submitted using the TACAS 2007 Conference Service. As with other ETAPS conferences, TACAS accepts two types of contributions: * research papers and * tool demonstration papers. Both types of contributions will appear in the proceedings and have oral presentations during the conference. Research papers: Research papers cover one or more of the topics above, including tool development and case studies from a perspective of scientific research. Research papers are evaluated by the TACAS Program Committee. Submitted research papers must: * be in English and have a maximum of 15 pages (including figures and bibliography) * present original research which is unpublished and not submitted elsewhere (conferences or journals) -- in particular, simultaneous submission of the same contribution to multiple ETAPS conferences is forbidden * use the Springer-LNCS style * be submitted electronically in Postscript or PDF form via the TACAS 2007 Conference Service (abstract no later than 6 October, 2006, and full paper no later than 13 October, 2006) Submissions deviating from these instructions may be rejected without review. Any questions regarding this policy should be directed to the Program Committee Co-Chairs Orna Grumberg (www.cs.technion.ac.il/users/orna/) or Michael Huth (www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~mrh/) prior to submitting. Tool demonstration papers: Tool demonstration papers present tools based on aforementioned technologies (e.g., theorem-proving, model-checking, static analysis, or other formal methods) or fall into the above application areas (e.g., system construction and transformation, testing, analysis of real-time, hybrid or biological systems, etc.). Tool demonstration papers are evaluated by the TACAS Tool Chair, Byron Cook (http://research.microsoft.com/users/bycook/default.htm) with the help of the Programme Committee. Submitted tool demonstration papers must: * be in English and have a maximum of 4 pages * have an appendix (not included in the 4 page count) that provides a detailed description of: - how the oral presentation will be conducted, e.g. illustrated by a number of snapshots - the availability of the tool, the number and types of users, other information which may illustrate the maturity and robustness of the tool - if applicable, a link to a web-page for the tool (The appendix will not be included in the proceedings, but during the evaluation of the tool demonstration papers it will be equally important as the pages submitted for publication in the proceedings.) * use the Springer-Verlag LNCS style * clearly describe the enhancements and novel features of the tool in case that one of its previous versions has already been presented at meetings or published in some form * be submitted electronically in Postscript or PDF form via the TACAS 2007 Conference Service (abstract no later than 6 October, 2006, and full paper no later than 13 October, 2006) Submissions deviating from these instructions may be rejected without review. Any questions regarding this policy should be directed to the Tool Chair Byron Cook. ============================================================================== Message: Address: Action: help majordomo(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Info. on useful commands subscribe ciao-users-request(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Subscribe to this list unsubscribe ciao-users-request(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Unsubscribe from this list <whatever> ciao-users(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Send message to list ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archived messages: http://www.clip.dia.fi.upm.es/Mail/ciao-users/ -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Multi-Valued Logic Programming and App: Extended Deadline
by Gopal Gupta 09 Jun '06

09 Jun '06

[New final deadline: June 10th] ICLP'06 Workshop on Multi-valued Logic and Applications Affliated with FLoC'06 Seattle, Washington August 21 2006 FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS Multi-Valued logics provide powerful mechanisms for reasoning about domains that are incomplete and inconsistent, such as databases, knowledge representation, model checking,asynchronous electronic circuits, etc. It is interesting to study the various semantics of multi-valued logics in general and in particular, logic programming from the perspective of multi-valued logics. The classical semantic formulations of logic programming, such as the minimal Herbrand model semantics, the well-founded semantics, the answer set semantics need to reinterpreted in the multi-valued scenario. Given a solid semantic foundation for a multi-valued logic programming framework, it can then be used as an elegant declarative specification language for the above application domains. Research in this area spans theoretical issues regarding the semantics and the role of negation, to implementation strategies, to practical tools for solving problems in various application domains. The workshop is meant to provide a channel for interaction between researchers working in these areas, by presenting their results and fostering discussion. This will engender new directions for researchers to pursue and showcase the considerable amount of research that has already been performed in the area. Authors are invited to submit original research, survey or tutorial papers in the areas of Multiple-valued Logic and Multi-valued Logic Programming, including, but not restricted to: # Algebraic and formal aspects # Implementation techniques for Multi-Valued LP Languages # Logic synthesis and Optimization # Circuit/ Device Implementation # Multi-Valued Model Checking # Switching functions # Machine Learning/ Data Mining # Biocomputing # Theorem Proving in Multi-Valued Logics # Fault Detection and diagnosis # Reliability # Information retrieval # Knowledge Representation/ Discovery # Automated Reasoning Important Dates: Submission deadline: June 10, 2006 Notification to authors: June 20, 2006 Camera-ready copy due: June 30, 2006 Submissions can be made in PDF or PS format at http://www.easychair.org/MVLPA2006/.
