CALL FOR PAPERS
Special Section on Formal Approaches
The IEICE Transactions on Information and Systems announces a
forthcoming special section on Formal Approaches to be published in
August 2020.
Formal methods and techniques play a key role in designing and
developing highly reliable information systems and embedded
systems. The last decades have seen various new techniques and
profound theoretical results using formal methods in surprisingly many
fields such as modeling, requirements analysis, specification,
automatic generation of codes, testing, verification, and
maintenance. They are rapidly extending their application domains as a
result of the recent growth of information and communication
technologies.
The Special Section on Formal Approaches aims at stimulating research
on formal approaches to information systems and embedded systems,
ranging from fundamental theory to practical applications. Our
emphasis is put on the cross-fertilization of related research fields
and encouragement of young researchers.
Topics:
The major topics are listed below, but we solicit submissions in all
areas of formal approaches, i.e., first to formalize information
systems, embedded systems, and their environment, next to analyze
their behavior and to derive their properties rigorously, and then to
solve various problems in designing and managing the systems.
- Theoretical foundations: all aspects of theory related to formal
description and verification for structure and behavior of systems.
- Formal techniques: techniques for mainly describing and analyzing
systems, such as software, hardware and networks.
- Formal tools: tools based on formal methods such as model checkers,
theorem provers, and static and dynamic analyzers.
- Applications: practical experiences of applying formal methods to
information systems, embedded systems, circuits, security, AI systems,
machine learning systems, multi-agent systems, automotive systems, etc.
- Education: education on formal methods.
Submission Instructions:
The deadline for submission is Sep 24, 2019, 23:59 JST(GMT+9).
Manuscripts should be carefully prepared according to the guideline
in the "Information for Authors" (available at
http://www.ieice.org/eng/shiori/mokuji_iss.html). The preferred length
of the manuscript is 8 pages. Only electronic submission through the
web page is accepted.
Submit a complete paper and transfer copyright of the paper using the
IEICE Web site https://review.ieice.org/regist/regist_baseinfo_e.aspx
Authors should choose the [Special FO] Formal Approaches"
as a "Journal/Section" on the online screen.

皆様,
東北大学の松田です.
ICFP併設の国際会議であるHaskell Symposium 2019のfinal CFPをお送りいたします.
〆切(5/10)まで残りわずかとなりましたが,可能でしたらどうぞ投稿をご検討いだけますと幸いです.
投稿の際は今年は軽量double blind reviewingが採用されていることにご注意ください.
================================================================================
ACM SIGPLAN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
Haskell Symposium 2019
Berlin, Germany
22--23 August, 2019
http://www.haskell.org/haskell-symposium/2019/
================================================================================
The ACM SIGPLAN Haskell Symposium 2019 will be co-located with the 2019
International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP).
**NEW THIS YEAR**: We will be using a lightweight double-blind reviewing
process. See further information below.
The Haskell Symposium presents original research on Haskell,
discusses practical experience and future development of the language, and
promotes other forms of declarative programming.
Topics of interest include:
* Language design, with a focus on possible extensions and modifications of
Haskell as well as critical discussions of the status quo;
* Theory, such as formal semantics of the present language or future
extensions, type systems, effects, metatheory, and foundations for
program analysis and transformation;
* Implementations, including program analysis and transformation,
static and dynamic compilation for sequential, parallel, and distributed
architectures, memory management, as well as foreign function and
component interfaces;
* Libraries, that demonstrate new ideas or techniques for functional
programming in Haskell;
* Tools, such as profilers, tracers, debuggers, preprocessors,
and testing tools;
* Applications, to scientific and symbolic computing, databases,
multimedia, telecommunication, the web, and so forth;
* Functional Pearls, being elegant and instructive programming examples;
* Experience Reports, to document general practice and experience in
education, industry, or other contexts;
* System Demonstrations, based on running software rather than novel
research results.
Regular papers should explain their research contributions in both general
and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it
is significant, and relating it to previous work, and to other languages where
appropriate.
Experience reports and functional pearls need not necessarily report
original academic research results. For example, they may instead report reusable
programming idioms, elegant ways to approach a problem, or practical
experience that will be useful to other users, implementers, or researchers. The key
criterion for such a paper is that it makes a contribution from which other
Haskellers can benefit. It is not enough simply to describe a standard
solution to a standard programming problem, or report on experience where you used
Haskell in the standard way and achieved the result you were expecting.
System demonstrations should summarize the system capabilities that would
be demonstrated. The proposals will be judged on whether the ensuing session
is likely to be important and interesting to the Haskell community at large,
whether on grounds academic or industrial, theoretical or practical,
technical, social or artistic. Please contact the program chair with any questions
about the relevance of a proposal.
Submission Details
==================
Early and Regular Track
-----------------------
The Haskell Symposium uses a two-track submission process so that some
papers can gain early feedback. Strong papers submitted to the early track are
accepted outright, and the others will be given their reviews and invited
to resubmit to the regular track. Papers accepted via the early and regular
tracks are considered of equal value and will not be distinguished in the
proceedings. Although all papers may be submitted to the early track,
authors of functional pearls and experience reports are particularly encouraged to
use this mechanism. The success of these papers depends heavily on the way they
are presented, and submitting early will give the program committee a
chance to provide feedback and help draw out the key ideas.
Formatting
----------
Submitted papers should be in portable document format (PDF), formatted
using the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines. Authors should use the `acmart` format,
with the `sigplan` sub-format for ACM proceedings. For details, see:
http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/#acmart-format
It is recommended to use the `review` option when submitting a paper; this
option enables line numbers for easy reference in reviews.
Functional pearls, experience reports, and demo proposals should be
labelled clearly as such.
Lightweight Double-blind Reviewing
----------------------------------
Haskell Symposium 2019 will use a lightweight double-blind reviewing
process. To facilitate this, submitted papers must adhere to two rules:
1. Author names and institutions must be omitted, and
2. References to authors’ own related work should be in the third person
(e.g., not “We build on our previous work …” but rather “We build on the
work of …”).
The purpose of this process is to help the reviewers come to an initial
judgment about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them
to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the
name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the
paper more difficult (e.g., important background references should not be
omitted or anonymized). In addition, authors should feel free to
disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their paper as they normally would. For
instance, authors may post drafts of their papers on the web or give talks
on their research ideas.
A reviewer will learn the identity of the author(s) of a paper after a
review is submitted.
Page Limits
-----------
The length of submissions should not exceed the following limits:
Regular paper: 12 pages
Functional pearl: 12 pages
Experience report: 6 pages
Demo proposal: 2 pages
There is no requirement that all pages are used. For example, a
functional pearl may be much shorter than 12 pages. In all cases,
the list of references is not counted against these page limits.
Deadlines
---------
Early track:
Submission deadline: 15 March 2019 (Fri)
Notification: 19 April 2019 (Fri)
Regular track and demos:
Submission deadline: 10 May 2019 (Fri)
Notification: 21 June 2019 (Fri)
Camera-ready deadline for accepted papers:
30 June 2019 (Sun)
Deadlines are valid anywhere on Earth.
Submission
----------
Submissions must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy
(http://sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/), and authors
should be aware of ACM's policies on plagiarism
(https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism).
The paper submission deadline and length limitations are firm.
There will be no extensions, and papers violating the length
limitations will be summarily rejected.
Papers should be submitted through HotCRP at:
https://haskell19.hotcrp.com/
Improved versions of a paper may be submitted at any point before the
submission deadline using the same web interface.
Supplementary material: Authors have the option to attach supplementary
material to a submission, on the understanding that reviewers may choose
not to look at it. This supplementary material should not be submitted as part
of the main document; instead, it should be uploaded as a separate PDF
document or tarball.
Supplementary material should be uploaded at submission time, not by
providing a URL in the paper that points to an external repository.
Authors are free to upload both anonymized and non-anonymized supplementary
material. Anonymized supplementary material will be visible to reviewers
immediately; non-anonymized supplementary material will be revealed to
reviewers only after they have submitted their review of the paper and
learned the identity of the author(s).
Resubmitted Papers: Authors who submit a revised version of a paper that
has previously been rejected by another conference have the option to attach an
annotated copy of the reviews of their previous submission(s), explaining
how they have addressed these previous reviews in the present submission. If a
reviewer identifies him/herself as a reviewer of this previous submission
and wishes to see how his/her comments have been addressed, the principal
editor will communicate to this reviewer the annotated copy of his/her previous
review. Otherwise, no reviewer will read the annotated copies of the
previous reviews.
Travel Support
==============
Student attendees with accepted papers can apply for a SIGPLAN PAC grant to
help cover travel expenses. PAC also offers other support, such as for
child-care expenses during the meeting or for travel costs for companions
of SIGPLAN members with physical disabilities, as well as for travel from
locations outside of North America and Europe. For details on the PAC
program, see its web page (http://pac.sigplan.org).
Proceedings
===========
Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Authors must
grant ACM publication rights upon acceptance (http://authors.acm.org/main.html).
Authors are encouraged to publish auxiliary material with their paper
(source code, test data, etc.); they retain copyright of auxiliary material.
Accepted proposals for system demonstrations will be posted on the
symposium website but not formally published in the proceedings.
All accepted papers and proposals will be posted on the conference
website one week before the meeting.
Publication date: The official publication date of accepted papers 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.
