(Inst.
of Comp. & Info. Sci., Radboud University), Von Neumann algebras from a
logical / categorical perspective
Many researches at the Nijmegen group involve von Neumann algebras,
which are now important not only in quantum physics but also in the
context of quantum computation and information. I plan to talk about:
1) basics of von Neumann algebras and quantum theory; 2) von Neumann
algebras in effectus theory (a categorical approach to quantum
computation and logic); 3) von Neumann algebras as a (categorical,
denotational) model of the quantum lambda calculus.

2013, Sydney - 2014, and Shanghai - 2015.
Scope
ATVA 2016 solicits high quality submissions in areas related to the
theory and practice of automated analysis and verification of hardware
and software systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Formalisms for modeling hardware, software and embedded systems
* Specification and verification of finite-state, infinite-state and
parameterized system
* Program analysis and software verification
* Analysis and verification of hardware circuits, systems-on-chip and
embedded systems
* Analysis of real-time, hybrid, priced/weighted and probabilistic systems
* Deductive, algorithmic, compositional, and abstraction/refinement
techniques for analysis and verification
* Analytical techniques for safety, security, and dependability
* Testing and runtime analysis based on verification technology
* Analysis and verification of parallel and concurrent hardware/software
systems
* Verification in industrial practice
* Applications and case studies
Theory papers should preferably be motivated by practical problems, and
applications should be based on sound theory and should solve problems
of practical interest.
Submission
ATVA invites research contributions in two categories:
* Regular research papers (with 16 pages page limit, including references)
* Tool papers (with 5 pages page limit, not counting references)
Contributions must be written in English and in LNCS format, and must
present original research that is unpublished and not submitted elsewhere
(conferences or journals). The proceedings of ATVA 2016 will be published
by Springer as a volume in the series of Lecture Notes in Computer Science
(LNCS). For formatting instructions, see:
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html
PDF versions of the papers should be submitted to EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=atva2016
Proofs and details omitted due to space constraints may be put in an
appendix. Any such additional material will be read by reviewers/program
committee members at their discretion. Authors are therefore urged to
include details necessary for evaluation of the technical merit of their
work within the prescribed page limits.
Tool papers must include information about a URL from where the tool
can be downloaded or accessed on-line for evaluation. The URL must also
contain a set of examples, and a user's manual that describes usage
of the tool through examples. In case the tool needs to be downloaded
and installed, the URL must also contain a document clearly giving
instructions for installation of the tool on Linux/Windows/MacOS.
Accepted papers in both categories will be published by Springer as
a LNCS volume. At least one author of each accepted paper must also
register for the conference and present the paper.
Selected papers will be invited for a publication in Formal Methods in
System Design, published by Springer.

http://www.philo.ntu.edu.tw/lmmgroup/
You are cordially invited to submit an abstract of contributed talk to the Workshop on
Williamson's Philosophy, to be held during the Joint Conference of AWPL-TPLC 2016.
Deadline of the submission: 30 April, 2016.
Introduction
This will be a one-day plus workshop on Timothy Williamson’s philosophy, hosted by the
Department of Philosophy, National Taiwan University, during the joint conference of the 3rd
Asian Workshop on Philosophical Logic and the 3rd Taiwan Philosophical Logic Colloquium
(AWPL-TPLC 2016).
In view of the substantial contribution that Professor Timothy Williamson has made in the last
few decades to contemporary philosophy, the organizing committee has set as the ultimate
priority to organize a one-day plus workshop on Williamson’s philosophy during the joint conference.
This project has been approved by Professor Williamson and more importantly he has accepted
our invitation to come and join us on this special occasion.
The Core
Special attention will be paid to themes from Williamson’s five books:
. Identity and Discrimination, 2nd ed. (1st ed. 1990), Oxford: Blackwell, 2013.
. Vagueness, London: Routledge, 1994.
. Knowledge and Its Limits, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2000.
. The Philosophy of Philosophy, Oxford: Blackwell, 2007.
. Modal Logic as Metaphysics, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2013.
Keynote speaker: Timothy Williamson (Oxford University, UK)
Invited speakers
Katalin Farkas (Central European University, Hungary, on themes from Identity and Discrimination.)
Greg Restall (University of Melbourne, Australia, Modal Logic as Metaphysics.)
Nick Smith (University of Sydney, Australia, Vagueness)
Some promising young philosophers from Asia-Pacific area will join us, including
Max Deutsch (Hong Kong University): The Philosophy of Philosophy
Hanti Lin (University of California at Davis, USA): Knowledge and its Limits
Dan Marshall (Lingnan University, Hong Kong): Modal Logic as Metaphysics
and more to come.
The format (The workshop will contain at least 7 sessions)
The workshop will start with a keynote speech by Williamson, followed by four sessions on the 6th of
October, and will be continued, together with a final session for Williamson’s replies on the 7th of October.
. 1st session (90 mins):
(i) A brief introduction (about 5-10 minutes) of Williamson’s contribution in the last
few decades (by the chair)
(ii) A keynote speech (about 60 minutes plus 10-20 minutes for discussion) by Timothy
Williamson
. 2nd - 6th sessions: Each session (90 minutes) focuses on one of Williamson’s five books, and includes 4 parts:
(i) (3-5 minutes) An introduction to the book under discussion (by the chair)
(ii) (60-70 minutes) One talk by an invited speaker, followed by a contributed talk.
(iii) (10-15 minutes) Williamson’s replies.
(iv) (10-15 minutes) Discussion
. 7th session (90 minutes):
. (5-10 minutes) A summary from the chair
. (30-40 minutes) a final response from Williamson (especially to the talks which are
not included in the special workshop)
. (20-30 minutes) discussions.
Submission of Abstracts for Contributed Talks
All researchers who are interested in Williamson’s philosophy are cordially invited to submit their abstracts
by 30 April 2016. Authors should submit an (extended) abstract no less than one page but no more than four
pages (A4 size, single space). Abstracts must be submitted as PDF files and sent to
D.-M. Deng [dmdeng(a)ntu.edu.tw];
S.C.-M. Yang [cmyang(a)ntu.edu.tw]
Memo:
1. Associated with each book, there is at least one session, containing two talks to address some issues
on the themes of that book.
2. Extra contributed talks will be welcome. If the accepted abstracts for contributed talks on Williamson’s
philosophy are more than originally scheduled, the Programme Committee will be very glad to put the extra
ones in some other sessions before the conclusion session so that Williamson may have some comments/replies
to those speakers as well.
3. A full length manuscript of a contributed talk on this workshop should be sent to the organizer by the 15th
of September 2016 in order for Professor Williamson to read it before the workshop.
4. The chair of each session will provide a brief survey of the book (that session focuses on).
5. The organizing committee will try to find some well-known publisher to consider the possibility of publishing
a post-conference proceedings, provided this proposal is approved by Williamson. The details will be announced
when this proposal is also approved by the publisher.
6. A final remark: Professor Williamson has thoughtfully promised to offer young scholars in Taiwan, who contribute
papers to this workshop, a one-on-one tutorial/supervision to discuss their papers before the conference. Tutorial time
will be scheduled in two afternoons before the conference. [The details will be announced in due course.]
