These events are free to anyone who wishes to attend and have attracted high-quality speakers. Speaker: Annabelle McIver (Macquarie University) *Probabilistic Datatypes: automating verification for abstract probabilistic reasoning* Abstract: Datatypes - in which data is encapsulated together with methods that access it - play an important role in the organisation of large software projects. Correctness of datatypes has traditionally been carried out using simulation relations to simplify the verification by separating concerns: the datatype can be verified independently from the programs that use it, whilst those programs themselves can be verified using the specifications of the datatype's methods. Use of these principles enables complex programs to be brought within reach of automated proof. When probabilistic choice is included, however, it turns out that obtaining similar simplifications of the verification problem will require distinguishing between "hidden" and "observable" probabilistic behaviour - if demonic choice is allowed in the surrounding program. And that is not required in the non-probabilistic setting: the crucial issue is the potential interaction of probabilistic- and demonic choice. In the main part of this talk I will use examples to explain why the interaction is problematic, and I will suggest how extension of existing pGCL-based automated reasoning-tools, will by taking that interaction into account, enable automated probabilistic abstract reasoning about "hard to crack" probabilistic programs. Registration: *To attend remotely via Zoom, please complete the registration form here* . You will receive the link to the meeting upon registration, as well as an automated reminder email sent 24 hours before the event is scheduled to start.

The research touches on the fields of distributed systems, software engineering, access/usage control, and (domain-specific) programming languages. Please consider this vacancy or forward it to people who may be interested. A short summary can be found below. The full vacancy can be found here: PhD Position in Accountable Usage Control for Distributed Data Processing Systems Functiedetails | UvA. Kind regards, dr. Thomas van Binsbergen Assistant Professor Informatics Institute University of Amsterdam The Complex-Cyber Infrastructure (CCI) group of the UvA brings together research on several topics to advance the state of the art in data exchange systems – such as privacy, security, usage control, software languages, legal compliance, and normative (software) systems. By combining advancements in these areas, the CCI group proposes novel data exchange solutions in which organisations retain control over the data assets they offer, and the risk of data exchange is reduced through, for example, compliance with (privacy) regulations and security requirements. These solutions are brought into practice with industrial and societal partners within the Amsterdam Data Exchange (AMdEX) consortium. The goal of this PhD position is to conduct fundamental research into novel distributed usage control models with high degrees of accountability, transparency, and human involvement (human-in-the-loop), whilst satisfying (other) legal requirements such as the handling of legal obligations and pre- and post-conditions on the usage of data assets. A particular challenge follows from the distributed nature of the studied systems – information required to make and justify access and usage decisions may be highly dispersed across the system and some of this information might itself be sensitive. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

From data types to development techniques and specification formalisms, both theoreticians and practitioners have benefited from the large body of research proposed and implemented since the pioneering works of the 1960s. CALCO aims to bring together researchers and practitioners with interests in both foundational and applicative uses of algebra and coalgebra in computer science, traditional as well as emerging ones. CALCO is a high-level, bi-annual conference formed by joining the forces and reputations of CMCS (the International Workshop on Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science) and WADT (the Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques). Previous CALCO editions took place in Bloomington, Indiana (US, 2023), Salzburg (Austria, 2021), London (UK, 2019), Ljubljana (Slovenia,2017), Nijmegen (the Netherlands, 2015), Warsaw (Poland, 2013), Winchester (UK, 2011), Udine (Italy, 2009), Bergen (Norway, 2007), Swansea (Wales, 2005). The 11th edition will be held in Glasgow, UK, co-located with MFPS XLI. It is planned as a physical, in-person event. Submission Categories --------------------- CALCO invites papers relating to all aspects of algebraic and coalgebraic theory and applications, and distinguishes between four categories of submissions. Regular papers that report * results on theoretical foundations, * novel methods and techniques for software development, * experiences with technology transfer to industry. (Co)Algebraic Pearls papers that * present possibly known material in a novel and enlightening way. Early ideas abstracts that lead to * presentations of work in progress, * proposals for original venues of research. Tool presentation papers that * report on the features and uses of algebraic/coalgebraic tools. Topics of Interest ------------------ All topics relating to algebraic and coalgebraic theory and applications are of interest for CALCO, and among them * Models and logics - Automata and languages - Graph transformations and term rewriting - Modal logics - Proof systems - Relational systems - Behavioural metrics * Algebraic and coalgebraic semantics - Abstract data types - Re-engineering techniques (program transformations) - Semantics of conceptual modelling methods and techniques - Semantics of programming languages * Methodologies in software and systems engineering - Development processes - Method integration - Usage guidelines * Specialised models and calculi - Hybrid, probabilistic, and timed systems - Concurrent, distributed, mobile, cyber-physical, and context-aware computational paradigms - Systems theory and computational models (chemical, biological, etc.) * System specification and verification - Formal testing and quality assurance - Generative programming and model-driven development - Integration of formal specification techniques - Model-driven development - Specification languages, methods, and environments * Tools supporting algebraic and coalgebraic methods for - Advances in automated verification - Model checking - Theorem proving - Testing * String diagrams and network theory - Theory of PROPs and operads - Rewriting problems and higher-dimensional approaches - Automated reasoning with string diagrams - Applications of string diagrams * Quantum computing - Categorical semantics for quantum computing - Quantum calculi and programming languages - Foundational structures for quantum computing - Applications of quantum algebra Submission Guidelines --------------------- All submissions will be handled via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=calco25 The format for all submissions is specified by LIPIcs. Please use the latest version of the style: http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/instructions-for-authors/ It is recommended that submissions adhere to that format and length. Submissions that are clearly too long may be rejected immediately. Proceedings will be published in the Dagstuhl LIPIcs Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics series. A special issue of the open access journal Logical Methods in Computer Science (http://www.lmcs-online.org), containing extended versions of selected papers, is planned. ### Regular papers Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers in English presenting original research. Submitted papers must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Regular papers should be maximum 15 pages long, excluding references. Proofs omitted due to space limitations may be included in a clearly marked appendix. ### (Co)algebraic pearls This is a recent submission category. Explaining a known idea in a new way may make as strong a contribution as inventing a new idea. We encourage the submission of pearls: elegant essays that illustrate an idea in a beautiful or didactically clever way, perhaps by developing an application. Pearls are typically short and concise and so should not be longer than regular papers in the format specified by LIPIcs. Authors who feel they need a bit more space should consult the PC co-chairs. The accepted papers will be included in the final proceedings of the conference. ### Early ideas abstracts Submissions should not exceed 2 pages in the format specified by LIPIcs. The volume of selected abstracts will be made available on arXiv and on the CALCO pages. Authors will retain copyright, and are also encouraged to disseminate the results by subsequent publication elsewhere. ### Tool papers Submissions should not exceed 5 pages in the format specified by LIPIcs. The accepted tool papers will be included in the final proceedings of the conference. The tools should be made available on the web at the time of submission for download and evaluation. Best Paper and Best Presentation Awards --------------------------------------- This edition of CALCO will feature two awards: a Best Paper Award whose recipients will be selected by the PC before the conference and a Best Presentation Award, elected by the participants.

Papers may range from 6 to 12 pages in length and may optionally include 2 further pages of bibliography/appendices. Papers will be reviewed with an understanding that some results do not need 12 full pages and may be fully described in fewer pages. * New ideas/vision papers: These papers may describe new, unconventional software language engineering research positions or approaches that depart from standard practice. They can describe well-defined research ideas that are at an early stage of investigation. They could also provide new evidence to challenge common wisdom, present new unifying theories about existing SLE research that provides novel insight or that can lead to the development of new technologies or approaches, or apply SLE technology to radically new application areas. New ideas/vision papers must not exceed 5 pages and may optionally include 1 further page of bibliography/appendices. * SLE Body of Knowledge: The SLE Body of Knowledge (SLEBoK) is a community-wide effort to provide a unique and comprehensive description of the concepts, best practices, tools, and methods developed by the SLE community. In this respect, the SLE conference will accept surveys, essays, open challenges, empirical observations, and case study papers on the SLE topics. These can focus on, but are not limited to, methods, techniques, best practices, and teaching approaches. Papers in this category can have up to 20 pages, including bibliography/appendices. * Tool papers: These papers focus on the tooling aspects often forgotten or neglected in research papers. A good tool paper focuses on practical insights that will likely be useful to other implementers or users in the future. Any of the SLE topics of interest are appropriate areas for tool demonstrations. Submissions must not exceed 5 pages and may optionally include 1 further page of bibliography/appendices. They may optionally include an appendix with a demo outline/screenshots and/or a short video/screencast illustrating the tool. Workshops: Workshops will be organised by STAF. Please inform us and contact STAF 2025 organisers if you would like to organise a workshop of interest to the SLE audience. Information on how to submit workshops can be found on the STAF 2025 Website. --------------------------- Submission --------------------------- SLE 2025 has a single submission round for papers, including a mandatory abstract registration and a rebuttal phase, where all authors of research papers will have the possibility of responding to the reviews on their submissions. Authors of accepted research papers will be invited to submit artefacts. --------------------------- Format --------------------------- Submissions have to use the ACM SIGPLAN Conference Format “acmart” ( https://sigplan.org/Resources/Author/#acmart-format); please make sure that you always use the latest ACM SIGPLAN acmart LaTeX template, and that the document class definition is `\documentclass[sigplan,anonymous,review]{acmart}`. Do not make any changes to this format! Ensure that your submission is legible when printed on a black and white printer. In particular, please check that colours remain distinct and font sizes in figures and tables are legible. To increase fairness in reviewing, a double-blind review process has become standard across SIGPLAN conferences. Accordingly, SLE will follow the double-blind process. Author names and institutions must be omitted from submitted papers, and references to the authors’ own related work should be in the third person. No other changes are necessary, and authors will not be penalized if reviewers are able to infer their identities in implicit ways. All submissions must be in PDF format. The submission website is: https://sle25.hotcrp.com --------------------------- Concurrent Submissions --------------------------- Papers must describe unpublished work that is not currently submitted for publication elsewhere as described by SIGPLAN’s Republication Policy ( https://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/). Submitters should also be aware of ACM’s Policy and Procedures on Plagiarism ( https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism-overview). Submissions that violate these policies will be desk-rejected. --------------------------- Policy on Human Participant and Subject Research --------------------------- Authors conducting research involving human participants and subjects must ensure that their research complies with their local governing laws and regulations and the ACM’s general principles, as stated in the ACM’s Publications Policy on Research Involving Human Participants and Subjects ( https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/research-involving-human-participants-and-subjects). If submissions are found to be violating this policy, they will be rejected. --------------------------- Reviewing Process --------------------------- All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. Research papers and tool papers will be evaluated concerning soundness, relevance, novelty, presentation, and replicability. New ideas/vision papers will be evaluated primarily concerning soundness, relevance, novelty, and presentation. SLEBoK papers will be reviewed on their soundness, relevance, originality, and presentation. Tool papers will be evaluated concerning relevance, presentation, and replicability. For fairness reasons, all submitted papers must conform to the above instructions. Submissions that violate these instructions may be rejected without review at the discretion of the PC chairs. For research papers, authors will get a chance to respond to the reviews before a final decision is made. --------------------------- Artefact Evaluation --------------------------- SLE will use an evaluation process to assess the quality of artefacts on which papers are based to foster the culture of experimental reproducibility. Authors of accepted research papers are invited to submit artefacts. --------------------------- Awards --------------------------- * Distinguished paper: Award for the most notable paper, as determined by the PC chairs based on the recommendations of the program committee. * Distinguished artefact: Award for the artefact most significantly exceeding expectations, as determined by the AEC chairs based on the recommendations of the artefact evaluation committee. * Distinguished reviewer: Award for the programme committee member that produced the most useful reviews as assessed by paper authors. * Most Influential Paper: Award for the SLE 2015 paper with the greatest impact, as judged by the SLE Steering Committee. --------------------------- Publication --------------------------- All accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library. **AUTHORS TAKE NOTE**: The official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. --------------------------- Organisation --------------------------- * General chair: Görel Hedin, Lunds Universitet, Sweden * PC co-chair: Regina Hebig, Universität Rostock, Germany * PC co-chair: Vadim Zaytsev, Universiteit Twente, The Netherlands * Publicity chair: Andrei Chiş, feenk gmbh, Switzerland * Local chair: Ralf Lämmel, Universität Koblenz, Germany --------------------------- Contact --------------------------- For additional information, clarification, or answers to any questions, please get in touch with the program co-chairs (regina.hebig at uni-rostock.de and vadim at grammarware.net). -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
