SLAGICS 2013: ALGI and SLACS join forces
RIMS, Kyoto University
2013/9/24 (Tue) -- 2013/9/26 (Thu)
https://sites.google.com/site/slagics2013/
ALGI and SLACS are two series of workshops in Japan whose
interests range widely from formal logic and semantics to
algebraic geometric, and categorical methods, with emphases on
computer science. This year the two series join forces and
hold a joint workshop in Kyoto.
Though many talks will be in Japanese, your contributed talks
in English are most welcome and appreciated. See
https://sites.google.com/site/slagics2013/practical-in-english
for some practical information. (There will be travel support by
courtesy of RIMS, Kyoto University). The registration deadlines are:
- *** Fri 16 Aug *** if you'd like travel support or a room
at the RIMS accommodation (but do it ASAP since these are
first come, first served);
- *** Fri 13 Sep *** otherwise.
Looking forward to seeing you in Kyoto!

1st International Workshop on Argument for Agreement and Assurance (AAA
2013)
Kanagawa, Japan
October 27-28, 2013
http://www.panda.sys.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/kido/AAA2013/
=================================================================
OVERVIEW:
----------------
Submissions are invited for the 1st International Workshop on Argument for
Agreement and Assurance (AAA 2013). The workshop will be held in Keio
University Hiyoshi Campus, Kanagawa, Japan, on October 27-28, 2013, as part
of the Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence international symposia
on AI (JSAI-isAI) 2013.
Argumentation has now become an interdisciplinary challenging research area
in AI aiming at formalizing various aspects of human or/and computer
software argument in terms of computation, and applying those knowledge to
various fields. Scope of argumentation in AI includes human arguments
appeared in television, newspapers, WWW, etc. and also artificial arguments
constructed from structured knowledge with logical language and inference
rules. Results of argumentation in AI are widely applicable to various
fields such as consensus building, agreement formation, multiagent systems,
semantic web, recommendation systems, argument mining, learning, belief
revisions, chance discovery, safety engineering, etc.
In particular, safety engineering is a research area that is interested in
the use of an evidence-based argument often called a safety case, assurance
case or dependability case. Nowadays, it is becoming necessary for
certification bodies to issue a license to developing and operating bodies,
for system stakeholders to make agreement, for system administrators to
achieve accountability, etc. AAA 2013 contributes to deepen mutual
understanding between researchers working on argumentation theory in AI and
researchers working on agreement and assurance technologies through
arguments.
AAA 2013 solicits contributions from broad range of researchers related to
argumentation in AI and especially welcomes contributions across
argumentation and systems assurance. AAA 2013 seeks high-quality original
submission of full papers limited to 14 pages including figures,
references, etc. All submissions will be rigorously peer reviewed with
double blind. Selected papers will be included in JSAI-isAI 2013
post-proceedings as a volume of LNAI published by Springer Verlag.
AIMS AND SCOPE:
--------------------------
AAA 2013 aims to deepen mutual understanding between researchers working on
argumentation theory in AI and researchers working on agreement and
assurance technologies through arguments, and to share current limitations
and problems of argumentation in AI in terms of both theory and practice.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
- Abstract and structured argumentation systems including studies of
frameworks, proof-theories, semantics, complexity, etc.
- Dialogue systems for persuasion, negotiation, deliberation, eristic,
information-seeking dialogues, etc.
- Applications of argumentation and dialogue systems to various fields such
as agreement technologies, systems assurance, safety engineering,
multi-agent systems, practical reasoning, belief revision, learning,
semantic web, etc.
- Agreement and assurance technologies through arguments including safety
cases, assurance cases and dependability cases, etc.
- Tools for argumentation systems, dialogue systems, argument-based
stakeholders' agreement, argument-based accountability achievement,
argument-based open systems dependability, argument-based verification and
validation, etc.
IMPORTANT DATES:
----------------------------
- Workshop Submission Deadline: August 10, 2013
- Workshop Author Notification: September 15, 2013
- Workshop Camera-ready: September 30, 2013
- Workshop Date: October 27-28, 2013
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS:
------------------------------------------
We welcome and encourage the submission of high quality, original papers,
which are not simultaneously submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers
should be written in English, formatted according to the Springer Verlag
LNCS style in a pdf form, which can be obtained from Springer Online, and
not exceed 14 pages including figures, references, etc. If you use a word
file, please follow the instruction of the format, and then convert it into
a pdf form. Here is the submission page.
https://www.easychair.org/account/signin.cgi?conf=aaa2013
If a paper is accepted, at least one author of the paper must register the
workshop and present it.
PROCEEDINGS:
----------------------
A printed volume of the proceedings will be available at the workshop.
Springer Verlag has agreed to publish selected papers of the workshop in
the JSAI-isAI 2013 post-proceedings as a volume of LNAI. Thus, the authors
of papers presented at the workshop will be asked to extend their
contributions, possibly incorporating the results of the workshop
discussion, to be included in the workshop post-proceedings, after another
round of refereeing.

Title: HENKIN CONTINUITY OF MULTIVALUED FUNCTIONS
(joint work with Arno Pauly)
Abstract:
A type-2 computable real function is necessarily continuous;
and this remains true for relative, i.e. oracle-based, computations.
Conversely, by the Weierstrass Approximation Theorem, every continuous
$f:[0;1]\to\mathbb{R}$ is computable relative to some oracle.
In their search for a similar topological characterization of
relatively computable \emph{multi-}valued functions
$f:[0;1]\rightrightarrows\mathbb{R}$ (aka multi-functions or relations),
Brattka and Hertling (1994) have considered
two notions: weak continuity (which is weaker than relative computability)
and strong continuity (which is stronger than relative computability).
Observing that \emph{uniform} continuity plays a crucial role
in the Weierstrass Theorem, we propose and compare several notions
of uniform continuity for relations. Here, due to the additional
quantification over values $y\in f(x)$, new ways arise of (linearly)
ordering quantifiers---yet none turns out as satisfactory.
We are thus led to a concept of uniform continuity based on
the \textsf{Henkin quantifier}; and prove it necessary
for relative computability of compact real relations.
In fact iterating this condition
yields a strict hierarchy of notions each necessary ---
and the $\omega$-th level also sufficient ---
for relative computability. A refined, quantitative analysis
exhibits a similar topological characterization of
relative polynomial-time computability.
