Call for papers
International Symposium on Logic-Based Program Synthesis and Transformation
LOPSTR 2007
22-24 August 2007, Kongens Lyngby, Denmark
(co-located with SAS 2007)
url: http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/events/conf/2007/lopstr/
email: lopstr-2007(a)kent.ac.uk
Objectives:
The aim of the LOPSTR series is to stimulate and promote international
research and collaboration on logic-based program development. LOPSTR is open
to contributions in logic-based program development in any language paradigm.
LOPSTR has a reputation for being a lively, friendly forum for presenting and
discussing work in progress. Formal proceedings are produced only after the
symposium, so authors can incorporate this feedback in the published papers.
Topics:
Topics of interest cover all aspects of logic-based program development, all
stages of the software life cycle, and issues of both programming-in-the-small
and programming-in-the-large. Papers describing applications in these areas are
especially welcome. Contributions are welcome on all aspects of logic-based
program development, including, but not limited to:
specification synthesis
verification transformation
analysis optimisation
composition security
reuse applications and tools
component-based software development software architectures
agent-based software development program refinement
Survey papers, that present some aspect of the above topics from a new
perspective, and application papers, that describe experience with industrial
applications, are also welcome. Papers must describe original work, be written
and presented in English, and must not substantially overlap with papers that
have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
conference with refereed proceedings.
Submission information and Special Issue:
Submissions can either be (short) extended abstracts or (full) papers whose
length should not exceed 9 and 15 pages respectively. Submissions must be
formatted in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science style (excluding bibliography
and well-marked appendices not intended for publication). Referees are not
required to read the appendices, and thus papers should be intelligible without
them. Short papers may describe work-in-progress or tool demonstrations.
Both accepted short and full papers will appear in the pre-proceedings. The full
papers will automatically appear in the formal proceedings that will be
published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. In
addition, after the symposium, the programme committee will select those short
papers to be considered for formal publication. These authors will be invited
to revise and extend their submissions in the light of the feedback solicited at
the meeting. Then after another round of reviewing, these revised papers will be
also published in the formal proceedings.
The very best papers will additionally be invited to submit for a special issue
or special track of the journal Higher-Order and Symbolic Computation, provided
there are sufficient high-quality submissions.
Papers should be submitted either in PostScript or PDF format and they should be
interpretable by Ghostscript or Acrobat Reader.

International Conference on Logic Programming
Third Doctoral Consortium
Porto, Portugal
September 8-13, 2007
http://www.cs.nmsu.edu/~epontell/DC2007
-----------
The 2007 ICLP Doctoral Consortium (DC) is the third international
doctoral consortium to be offered as part of the International
Conference on Logic Programming. The DC will take place during ICLP
2007 in Porto, Portugal. The Doctoral Consortium is designed for
doctoral students working in areas related to logic programming, as
well as Master's students interested in pursuing doctoral degrees in
the field of logic programming.
The Doctoral Consortium aims to provide students with an opportunity
to present and discuss their research directions and to obtain
feedbacks from peers as well as world-renown experts in the field.
The Doctoral Consortium will also offer invited speakers and panels
discussions.
------------
The Doctoral Consortium is held the during the regular activities of
the ICLP 2007 Conference. The aims of the Doctoral Consortium are:
* To provide doctoral students working in the field of logic and
constraint programming with a friendly and open forum to present
their research ideas, listen to ongoing work from peer students,
and receive constructive feedback
* To provide students with relevant information about important
issues for doctoral candidates and future academics
* To develop a supportive community of scholars and a spirit of
collaborative research.
* To support a new generation of researchers with information and
advice on academic, research, industrial, and non-traditional
career paths.
The Consortium is designed for students currently enrolled in a Ph.D.
program, though we are also open to exceptions (e.g., students
currently in a Masters program and interested in doctoral studies).
The Consortium is for students at any stage of their doctoral studies
are welcome to apply. Applicants are expected to be conducting
research in the field of Logic Programming; topics of interest include
(but are not limited to):
* Theoretical Foundations of Logic and Constraint Logic Programming
* Sequential and Parallel Implementation Technology
* Static and Dynamic Analysis, Abstract Interpretation, Compilation
Technology, Verification
* Logic-based Paradigms (e.g., Answer Set Programming, Concurrent
Logic Programming, Inductive Logic Programming)
* Innovative Applications of Logic Programming
The Consortium allows participants to interact with established
researchers and with other students, through presentations, question-
answer sessions, panel discussions, and invited presentations. The
Doctoral Consortium will provide the possibility to reflect - through
short activities, information sessions, and discussions - on the
process and lessons of research and life in academia. Each participant
will give a short, critiqued, research presentation.
The Doctoral Consortium will be held on a date to be determined, in
parallel with the regular activities of the ICLP 2007 conference; the
ICLP conference will run from September 8th to September 13th, 2007.
Doctoral Consortium participants will be offered the opportunity to
have their abstracts published in the ICLP 2007 conference
proceedings.
Discussants:
Several renowned faculty members and researchers in the field of Logic
Programming will join in evaluating the submission packets and will
participate in the Doctoral Consortium, providing feedback to the
presenters. The list of the discussants will be published at a later
date.
