[Our apologies if you receive multiple copies] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- WRS06 The Sixth International Workshop on Reduction Strategies in Rewriting and Programming http://www.cs.pdx.edu/~antoy/wrs06/ The Seattle Sheraton Hotel and Towers, Seattle, Washington, August 11, 2006 Scope The workshop intends to promote and stimulate international research and collaboration in the area of evaluation strategies. It encourages the presentation of new directions,developments and results as well as surveys and tutorials on existing knowledge in this area. Reduction strategies study which subexpression(s) of an expression should be selected for evaluation and which rule(s) should be applied. These choices affect fundamental properties of a computation such as laziness, strictness, completeness and need to name a few. For this reason some programming languages, e.g., Elan, Maude, *OBJ* and Stratego, allow the explicit definition of the evaluation strategy, whereas other languages,e.g., Clean, Curry, and Haskell, allow its modification. Strategies pose challenging theoretical problems and play an important role in practical tools such as theorem provers, model checkers and programming languages. In implementations of languages, strategies bridge the gap between operational principles, e.g., graph and term rewriting,narrowing and lambda-calculus, and semantics, e.g., normalization, computation of values and head-normalization. The previous editions of the workshop were: WRS 2001 (Utrecht, The Netherlands),WRS 2002 (Copenhagen, Denmark), WRS 2003 (Valencia, Spain), WRS 2004 (Aachen, Germany), and WRS 2005 (Nara, Japan).

CFP: MVLP06, Intl. Workshop on Multi-Valued Logic Programming and Applications
by Ajay Mallya 06 Apr '06

06 Apr '06

CALL FOR PAPERS ICLP'2006 Workshop on Multi-Valued Logic Programming and Applications MVLPA'2006 Seattle, Washington, Aug. 21st, 2006 URL: http://www.utdallas.edu/~axm011500/mvlpa06.html 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 newdirections for researchers to pursue and showcase the considerable amount of research thathas 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 Logic Programming 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 The MVLPA workshop will take place in Seattle, USA and will be collocated with the 2006 Federated Logic Conference (FLOC '06), http://research.microsoft.com/floc06/. The duration of the workshop is one day (21st August, 2006). Submission Information: ----------------------- We invite submissions in Springer-Verlag LNCS style.

CFP: Workshop on Verification and Debugging
by vandd2006 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

CALL FOR PAPERS 1st Workshop on VERIFICATION AND DEBUGGING Associated with CAV 2006 Knowing that a design violates its specification is only the first step towards a correct system. The violation may be caused by a fault in the design, but also by an error in the specification or in the environment constraints. A designer needs to understand the violation and to locate and correct the fault that causes it. Industrial experience shows that fault localization and rectification take much more time, effort, and expense than fault detection. Also, debugging often takes place late in the design cycle, which makes it a high-risk activity that may, if not done quickly and correctly, delay the release of a product. The workshop addresses the technologies and methodologies that need to be employed after verification has detected the presence of a bug. It aims to combine the efforts of the computer-aided verification and software engineering communities, attracting work in the areas of algorithms, tools, and methodologies for failure analysis. We welcome submissions addressing debugging of software, circuit designs, or combinations of the two. Topics of interest include * explanation and simplification of error traces, * fault localization, * rectification of the design, the specification, or the environment description, * test case generation for debugging, * debugging techniques, * methodologies that facilitate debugging, * overviews that provide a novel view of the state of the art and stimulate discussion and further research, and * empirical studies on debugging. Papers should contain original research, and sufficient detail to assess the merits and relevance of the contribution. For papers reporting experimental results, authors are strongly encouraged to make their data available with their submission. Simultaneous submission to other conferences with proceedings or submission of material that has already been published elsewhere is not allowed. Accepted papers will be published in a special issue of Elsevier's Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science. Papers should be at most 19 pages long in ENTCS format. Important Dates * Paper submission deadline: 24 April 2006 * Notice of acceptance/rejection: 22 May 2006 * Final version due: 19 June 2006 * CAV conference: 16-20 August * V&D Workshop 21 August '06 The 2006 conference on Computer-Aided Verification will be a part of the Federated Logic Conference in Seattle. The workshop will be held the day after CAV. Further info See http://www.ist.tugraz.at/vandd.html. The program committee can be reached at vandd2006(a)ist.tu-graz.ac.at.

(CFP) Workshop on Logic-based Methods in Programming Environments
by Wim Vanhoof 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

[Apologies for multiple postings] ----------------------------------------------------------- WLPE' 06 - CALL FOR PAPERS Workshop on Logic-based Methods in Programming Environments (satellite workshop of ICLP’06) August 16, 2006 Seattle (Washington), USA http://lml.ls.fi.upm.es/~susana/Conferences/WLPE06/ ----------------------------------------------------------- Aim and Scope ------------- The 16th Workshop on Logic-based methods in Programming Environments will take place in Seattle (Washington), USA, as a satellite workshop of ICLP'06, the 22th International Conference on Logic Programming. This workshop will continue the series of successful international workshops on logic programming environments held in Ohio, USA (1989), Eilat, Israel (1990), Paris, France (1991), Washington, USA (1992), Vancouver, Canada (1993), Santa Margherita Ligure, Italy (1994), Portland, USA (1995), Leuven, Belgium and Port Jefferson, USA (1997), Las Cruces, USA (1999), Paphos, Cyprus (2001), Copenhagen, Denmark (2002), Mumbai, India (2003), Saint Malo, France (2004) and Sitges, Spain (2005). The workshop aims at providing an informal meeting for the researchers working on logic-based tools for development and analysis of programs. This year we want to emphasize two aspects: on one hand we want to discuss the presentation, pragmatics and experiences of such tools; on the other one, we want to shift the traditional focus on environment tools for logic programming to logic-based environmental tools for programming in general. Specific topic areas relevant to the workshop include, but are not limited to: * tools for debugging and testing * tools for static and dynamic analysis * systems for program verification and validation * code generation from specifications * termination and non-termination analyzers * reasoners on occurs-check freeness and determinacy * profilers and performance analyzers * systems for types and modes analyzes * module systems * optimization tools. In addition to papers describing more conceptual work on environmental tools, we solicit papers describing the implementation of and experimentation with such tools. Submission guidelines --------------------- Length of papers can range from 2 to 17 pages, preferably in LNCS format. Authors are requested to submit their paper using the submission webpage at http://vampire.cs.man.ac.uk/WLPE-06/ Alternatively, authors can send a copy of their paper (in pdf or ps format) to the workshop coordinator (wva(a)info.fundp.ac.be). An informal proceedings will be published as a technical report of the University of Namur and distributed at the workshop. After the workshop, the proceedings will be publicly available on-line in the Computing Research Repository (CoRR).

CALL FOR PAPERS: CICLOPS 2006
by Enrico Pontelli 09 Mar '06

09 Mar '06

======================================================================= Call For Papers CICLOPS 2006 Colloquium on Implementation of Constraint LOgic Programming Systems http://www.cs.nmsu.edu/lldap/CICLOPS06 August 21, 2006 To be held in conjunction with 22nd International Conference on Logic Programming Seattle, Washington ======================================================================= Workshop Motivation ==================== The last years have witnessed continuous progress in the technology available both for academic and commercial computing environments. Examples include more processor performance, increased memory capacity and bandwidth, faster networking technology, and operating system support for cluster computing. These improvements, combined with recent advances in compilation and implementation technologies, are causing high-level languages to be regarded as good candidates for programming complex, real world applications. Techniques aiming at achieving flexibility in the language design make powerful extensions easier to implement; on the other hand, implementations which reach good performance in terms of speed and memory consumption make declarative languages and systems amenable to develop non-trivial applications. Logic Programming and Constraint Programming, in particular, seem to offer one of the best options, as they couple a high level of abstraction and a declarative nature with an extreme flexibility in the design of their implementations and extensions and of their execution model. This adaptability is key to, for example, the implicit exploitation of alternative execution strategies tailored for different applications (e.g., for domain-specific languages) without unnecessarily jeopardizing efficiency. This workshop continues a tradition of successful workshops on Implementations of Logic Programming Systems, previously held with in Budapest (1993) and Ithaca (1994), the Compulog Net workshops on Parallelism and Implementation Technologies held in Madrid (1993 and 1994), Utrecht (1995) and Bonn (1996), the Workshop on Parallelism and Implementation Technology for (Constraint) Logic Programming Languages (ParImp) held in Port Jefferson (1997), Manchester (1998), Las Cruces (1999), and London (2000), and more recently the Colloquium on Implementation of Constraint and LOgic Programming Systems (CICLOPS) in Paphos (Cyprus, 2001), Copenhagen (2002), Mumbai (2003), Saint-Malo (France, 2004), and Sitges (Spain, 2005), and the CoLogNet Workshops on Implementation Technology for Computational Logic Systems held in Madrid (2002), Pisa (2003) and Saint-Malo (France, 2004). Workshop Description ==================== The workshop aims at discussing and exchanging experience on the design, implementation, and optimization of logic and constraint (logic) programming systems, or systems intimately related to logic as a means to express computations. Preference will be given to the analysis and description of implemented (or under implementation) systems and their associated techniques, problems found in their development or design, and steps taken towards the solutions. The workshop topics include, but are not limited to: - Implementation of standard/alternative sequential models (generalization and modification of the WAM, translation to lower-level and/or general-purpose languages, etc.); - Implementation of parallel/concurrent models; - Interaction between high-level optimizations/transformations and lower- level issues; - Compile-time analysis and its application to code generation; - Balance between compile-time effort and run-time machinery; - Memory management, indexing, and garbage collection issues; - Profiling tools and performance evaluation; - Implementation techniques for declarative programming paradigms with basis on, or extending, logic and constraint programming, such as non-monotonic reasoning, inductive logic programming, natural language processing systems, etc; - Software desing with and for (C)LP systems: components, patterns, etc.; - Design and implementation of programming environments; - Experiences from using systems in real-life applications. Workshop Format =============== The workshop will emphasize discussion and cross-fertilization, so presentations will be balanced with discussion time. In this direction, the workshop is seeking high quality papers that address cutting-edge research in this field, and that can contribute to the discussion. The agenda will include paper presentations, a panel discussion, and possibly an invited speaker. At least one author of each accepted submission is expected to attend the workshop. Important Dates =============== Submission Deadline: June 1st, 2006 (strict) Notifications to Authors: July 1st, 2006 Final Version Deadline: July 20th, 2006 CICLOPS 2006 Workshop: August 21st, 2006 Submission Guidelines ===================== Participants should submit a paper (maximum 15 pages, PDF format), describing their work in topics relevant to the workshop. Accepted papers will be presented during the workshop. At least one author of an accepted contribution is expected to register for the workshop, and present the paper. All submissions should include the author's name(s), affiliation, complete mailing address, and email address. Authors are requested to prepare their submissions, following the LNCS/LNAI Springer format. Please see: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for further details. The submission should be submitted through the electronic submission site, accessible via the workshop web page. The deadline for receipt of submissions is June 1, 2006.

Saving a file using the top level shell(ciosh)
by CFS383150＠aol.com 17 Feb '06

17 Feb '06

Dear support staff, I recently acquired a book Introduction to Prolog by Ramahandran Bharath(1986, TAB Books) I have loaded ciao-1.10p5Win32 on my window 95 system and have been reading the manual. I am going through the examples in the first chapter on using the 'assertz' statement to build a data base. If I exit out of ciao top level shell and then restart it I lose the definitions I have just entered. Is there a way to save this work in a file and load it with the Module/1 or the default file that is loaded each time the top level shell is started. Thanks...Chuck Skelly(registered as 'skellyc(a)us.ibm.com)
