[Caml-list] SynCoP 2014 (ETAPS satellite) 2nd call for papers

====================================================================
Call for papers

SynCoP 2014
1st International Workshop on the SYNthesis of COntinuous Parameters

http://lipn.univ-paris13.fr/SynCoP2014/
====================================================================


SynCoP aims at bringing together researchers working on parameter
synthesis for
systems with continuous variables, where the parameters consist of a
(usually
dense) set of constant values. Such problems arise for real-time, hybrid or
probabilistic systems where the goal is to identify suitable parameters to
achieve desired behavior, or to verify the behavior for a given range of
parameter values. A parameter could be, e.g., a delay in a real-time
system, or
a reaction rate in a biological cell model.

The workshop will take place on Sunday the 6th of April 2014, in Grenoble,
France, as a satellite of ETAPS 2014.

[Caml-list] Call for participation: APLAS and CPP 2013

=================================================================
FINAL CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

APLAS: 11th Asian Symposium on Programming Languages and Systems
CPP: 3rd International Conference on Certified Programs and Proofs

9-13 December 2013 (APLAS 9-11 December; CPP 11-13 December)
Melbourne, Australia

Early-bird special registration rates end 11 November
=================================================================

==========
Background
==========

APLAS aims to stimulate programming language research by providing a
forum for the presentation of latest results and the exchange of ideas
in programming languages and systems. APLAS is based in Asia, but is
an international forum that serves the worldwide programming language
community.

APLAS is sponsored by the Asian Association for Foundation of Software
(AAFS) founded by Asian researchers in cooperation with many researchers
from Europe and the USA. Past APLAS symposiums were successfully held
in Kyoto ('12), Kenting ('11), Shanghai ('10), Seoul ('09), Bangalore
('08), Singapore ('07), Sydney ('06), Tsukuba ('05), Taipei ('04) and
Beijing ('03) after three informal workshops. Proceedings will be
published in Springer's LNCS series.

CPP is an international forum on theoretical and practical topics in
all areas, including computer science, mathematics, and education,
that consider certification as an essential paradigm for their
work. Certification here means formal, mechanized verification of some
sort, preferably with production of independently checkable
certificates.

The first two CPP conferences were held in Kenting, Taiwan, and Kyoto,
Japan, in December 2011 and 2012, respectively. As with the first
meetings, the proceedings will be published in Springer-Verlag's
Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.


===================
Conference Location
===================

APLAS and CPP will be held at the Rydges on Swanston hotel in Melbourne,
Australia, adjacent to the University of Melbourne.

Melbourne is widely considered to be Australia's financial and arts
capital, and was recently selected by The Economist Intelligence Unit as
the World's Most Livable City. Read more about Melbourne at:

[Caml-list] CiE 2014: Language, Life, Limits. Call for Papers

CALL FOR PAPERS:

CiE 2014: Language, Life, Limits

Budapest, Hungary

June 23 - 27, 2014

http://cie2014.inf.elte.hu


IMPORTANT DATES:

Submission Deadline for LNCS: 10 January 2014
Notification of authors: 3 March 2014
Deadline for final revisions: 31 March 2014


CiE 2014 is the tenth conference organized by CiE (Computability in
Europe), a European association of mathematicians, logicians, computer
scientists, philosophers, physicists and others interested in new
developments in computability and their underlying significance for the
real world. Previous meetings have taken place in Amsterdam (2005),
Swansea (2006), Siena (2007), Athens (2008), Heidelberg (2009), Ponte
Dalgada (2010), Sofia (2011), Cambridge (2012), and Milan (2013).

The motto of CiE 2014 "Language, Life, Limits" intends to put a special
focus on relations between computational linguistics, natural and
biological computing, and more traditional fields of computability theory.

This is to be understood in its broadest sense including computational
aspects of problems in linguistics, studying models of computation and
algorithms inspired by physical and biological approaches as well as
exhibiting limits (and non-limits) of computability when considering
different models of computation arising from such approaches.

As with previous CiE conferences the allover glueing perspective is to
strengthen the mutual benefits of analyzing traditional and new
computational paradigms in their corresponding frameworks both with
respect to practical applications and a deeper theoretical understanding.
