The 51th ToPS [June 21]
by Kazuyuki ASADA 11 Jun '11

11 Jun '11

[Apologies for multiple copies] I am pleased to announce the 51th Tokyo Programming Seminar, which will be held at NII on June 21 (Tue). Shin-ya Katsumata from Kyoto University will give a talk about a categorical approach to attribute grammars and Kazuyuki Asada from National Institute of Informatics will give a talk about bialgebraic semantics for multi-rooted graph algebra. The programme is attached below. I'm looking forward to meeting you at ToPS. Best regards, Kazuyuki Asada ---- The 51th ToPS http://www.ipl.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~tops/upcoming_seminar.html Time: June 21th (Tue) 2011, 15:00--17:00 Place: Rm. 1208, 12F, National Institute of Informatics Speaker: (1) Kazuyuki Asada (National Institute of Informatics) Title: Many-sorted Bialgebraic Semantics for a Multi-rooted Graph Algebra and a CBV Calculus Abstract: In this talk, bialgebraic semantics for the graph algebra introduced by Buneman et al. is given. The graph algebra is a graph representation for some kind of multi-rooted graph, which is the same as Kripke model. First I give a bijective correspondence between graph algebras and terms in (the first-order part of) a call-by-value calculus equipped with output, non-termination, non-determinism, and iteration operator. Then I induce an equational theory for graph algebra from the standard one for the CBV calculus including (modified) uniformity for the iteration operator. Then, after reveiwing coalgebraic semantics for Kripke model, we see that those final coalgebras form a relative monad, and the graph algebra can be formulated as many-sorted algebra. Then I give many-sorted bialgebraic semantics for the graph algebra and the graph. Time permitting, I will explain three future works: Completeness of the equational theory, full-abstractness, and generalization. (2) Shin-ya Katsumata (Kyoto University) Title: A Categorical Approach to Attribute Grammars Abstract: Attribute grammars (AGs) are a mechanism to assign computations with bidirectional information flow to trees. We introduce a categorical formulation of AGs called monoidal AGs, and demonstrate that they subsume existing formulations of AGs, such as domain-theoretic, graph-theoretic, and relational ones, and also a special class of syntactic AGs called SSUR-ACs. Using this categorical formulation, we give a syntax-free account of the descriptional composition, which is a method to fuse two term transformation algorithms described by SSUR-ACs into one.

CFP: SAC 2012 track on Service Oriented Architectures and Programming (SOAP)
by Koji Hasebe 04 Jun '11

04 Jun '11

（重複して受け取られた場合はご容赦下さい。）来年3月にTrentoにて開催されるACM SACのトラック"Service Oriented Architectures and Programming (SOAP)"のCFPをお送り致します。多数の投稿をお待ちしております。長谷部浩二＠筑波大学コンピュータサイエンス専攻 ============================================== Call for Papers 27th Annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC) http://www.acm.org/conferences/sac/sac2012/ Track on Service-Oriented Architectures and Programming (SOAP) Riva del Garda (Trento), Italy March 25-29, 2012 http://www.itu.dk/acmsac2012-soap/ ============================================== ACM SAC 2012 For the past twenty-seven years, the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing has been a primary gathering forum for applied computer scientists, computer engineers, software engineers, and application developers from around the world. SAC 2012 is sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Applied Computing (SIGAPP), and is hosted by The Microsoft Research - University of Trento Centre for Computational and Systems Biology, Trento, Italy. SOAP TRACK: CALL FOR PAPERS Service-Oriented Programming (SOP) is quickly changing our vision of the Web, bringing a paradigmatic shift in the methodologies followed by programmers when designing and implementing distributed systems. Originally, the Web was mainly seen as a means of presenting information to a wide spectrum of people, but SOP is triggering a radical transformation of the Web towards a computational fabric where loosely coupled services interact publishing their interfaces inside dedicated repositories, where they can be discovered by other services and then invoked, abstracting from their actual implementation. Research on SOP is giving strong impetus to the development of new technologies and tools for creating and deploying distributed software. In the context of this modern paradigm we have to cope with an old challenge, like in the early days of Object-Oriented Programming when, until key features like encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism, and proper design methodologies were defined, consistency in the programming model definition was not achieved. The complex scenario of SOP needs to be clarified on many aspects, both from the engineering and from the foundational points of view. From the engineering point of view, there are open issues at many levels. Among others, at the system design level, both traditional approaches based on UML and approaches taking inspiration from business process modelling, e.g. BPMN, are used. At the composition level, although WS-BPEL is a de-facto industrial standard, other approaches are appearing, and both the orchestration and choreography views have their supporters. At the description and discovery level there are two separate communities pushing respectively the semantic approach (ontologies, OWL, ...) and the syntactic one (WSDL, ...). In particular, the role of discovery engines and protocols is not clear. In this respect we still lack adopted standards: UDDI looked to be a good candidate, but it is no longer pushed by the main corporations, and its wide adoption seems difficult. Furthermore, a new different implementation platform, the so-called REST services, is emerging and competing with classic Web Services. Finally, features like Quality of Service, security and dependability need to be taken seriously into account, and this investigation should lead to standard proposals. From the foundational point of view, formalists have discussed widely in the last years, and many attempts to use formal methods for specification and verification in this setting have been made. Session correlation, service types, contract theories and communication patterns are only a few examples of the aspects that have been investigated. Moreover, several formal models based upon automata, Petri nets and algebraic approaches have been developed. However most of these approaches concentrate only on a few features of Service-Oriented Systems in isolation, and a comprehensive approach is still far from being achieved. The Service-Oriented Architectures and Programming track aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners having the common objective of transforming SOP into a mature discipline with both solid scientific foundations and mature software engineering development methodologies supported by dedicated tools. In particular, we will encourage works and discussions about what SOP still needs in order to achieve its original goal. Major topics of interest will include: - Formal methods for specification of Web Services - Notations and models for Service Oriented Computing - Methodologies and tools for Service Oriented application design - Service Oriented Middlewares - Service Oriented Programming languages - Test methodologies for Service Oriented applications - Analysis techniques and tools - Service systems performance analysis - Industrial deployment of tools and methodologies - Standards for Service Oriented Programming - Service application case studies - Dependability and Web Services - Quality of Service - Security issues in Service Oriented Computing - Comparisons between different approaches to Services - Exception handling in composition languages - Trust and Web Services - Sustainability and Web Services, Green Computing - Adaptable Web Services - Software Product Lines for Services - Artificial Intelligence Techniques for Service-Oriented Computing IMPORTANT DATES (strict) August 31, 2011: Paper submissions October 12, 2011: Author notification November 2, 2011: Camera-Ready Copy March 25-29, 2012: Conference SUBMISSIONS Authors are invited to submit original unpublished papers. Submission of the same paper to multiple tracks is not allowed. Peer groups with expertise in the track focus area will double-blindly review submissions. Accepted papers will be published in the annual conference proceedings. SOAP track chairs will not submit to the track. Submissions from SOAP PC members and from PC members and track chairs of other SAC tracks are welcome. Submission guidelines can be found on SAC 2012 Website: http://www.acm.org/conferences/sac/sac2012/ Prospective papers should be submitted to the track using the provided automated submission system. Please pay attention to ensure anonimity of your submitted manuscript as detailed in the submission page so to allow for double-blind review. Papers not satisfying this constraint will be automatically rejected. The maximum length for papers is 8 pages.

東北大学ロジックセミナー(6/3)

27 May '11

皆様，東北大学の堀畑佳宏です．下記の日程でロジックセミナーを行いますので，興味のある方はぜひご参加ください．日時：6月3日(金)，16時から場所：東北大学北青葉山キャンパス理学総合棟1201号室発表者：Sam Sanders　（Ghent university，東北大学大学院）タイトル： Nonstandard Analysis: a new way to compute アブストラクト： The notion of computability (in principle) is central to topics like e.g. Recursion Theory and Erret Bishop's Constructive Analysis. In contrast, the notion of computability has not been studied intensively in the context Nonstandard Analysis. Bishop even notoriously derided Nonstandard Analysis for its `lack of computational content'. Today, we set the historical record straight. We introduce `$\omega$-invariance' a new notion of computability based on Nonstandard Analysis. We show that $\omega$-invariance has the usual properties of computability and even derive several results from Constructive Reverse Mathematics. セミナーの詳細につきましては，下記をご参照ください． https://sites.google.com/site/sendailogichomepage/ 堀畑　佳宏 -- -- 東北大学大学院　理学研究科数学専攻　博士後期課程三年 E-mail: sa6m31(a)math.tohoku.ac.jp E-mail: higurashi3873(a)yahoo.co.jp

CFP: LENLS 8 (Logic and Engineering of Natural Language Semantics 8)
by BEKKI Daisuke 26 May '11

26 May '11

（重複して受け取られた場合はご容赦ください）今年の１２月に高松で開催される LENLS8 国際ワークショップのCFPをお送りします。多数の投稿をお待ちしています。戸次大介（お茶の水女子大学） [Apologies for multiple copies] ================================================================= FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS Logic and Engineering of Natural Language Semantics 8 (LENLS8) Workshop Site : "Sunport Hall Takamatsu", Takamatsu 2-1, Sunport, Takamatsu-shi, Kagawa-ken, Japan Dates : December 1-2, 2011 Contact Person: Alastair Butler Contact Email : lenls8(a)easychair.org Website : http://www.is.ocha.ac.jp/‾bekki/lenls/ ================================================================= Chair: Alastair Butler (JST/Tohoku University) Invited Speaker(s): - Kentaro Inui (Tohoku University) - TBA LENLS is an annual international workshop focusing on formal semantics and pragmatics. It will be held as one of the workshops of JSAI isAI 2011, sponsored by The Japan Society for Artificial Intelligence (JSAI). Call For Papers We invite submissions to this year's workshop on topics in formal semantics and pragmatics, and related fields, including but in no way limited to the following: - Dynamic syntax/semantics/pragmatics of natural language - Categorical/topological/coalgebraic approaches for natural language syntax/semantics/pragmatics - Logic and its relation to natural language and linguistic reasoning (especially dynamic logics) - Type-theoretic approaches to natural language - Formal Philosophy of language - Formal pragmatics (especially game- and utility-theoretic approaches) - Substructural expansion of Lambek Lambda Calculi - Many-valued/Fuzzy and other non-classical logics and natural language This year we especially welcome submissions connected to the theme of "Where is dynamic semantics now?". Flavours of dynamic semantics (world updating, assignment changing, etc.) have been broadly applied to solve problems in linguistics (notably anything related to anaphora) and philosophy (e.g., foundational issues of context, the role of variables) and have prompted the development of a diverse range of frameworks with replicable formal results. However in recent years direct appeals to the dynamic metaphor have been waning, as has the explicit development of novel systems, or even refinements to or mergings of older systems. Has dynamic semantics been so successful in solving its problems that all that remains for discussion are implementational differences among established parameters, or have debates simply shifted to new issues? Either way now seems an apt time to take stock and question where the decades of research have taken us and where we might hope this legacy to send us in the future. Submissions: Abstracts (4-6 pages, including figures, bibliography, possible apendices) must be submitted electronically in PDF format at: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lenls8 When his/her abstract is accepted, the author is expected to submit a full paper (10-14 pages) before the workshop. The proceedings of the workshop will be available at the conference site for registered persons. Important dates: Abstract submission deadline : August 31, 2011 Notification of acceptance : September 30, 2011 Deadline for camera-ready copy : October 15, 2011 Deadline for onsite registration: November 12, 2011 LENLS8: December 01-02, 2011 Organizing Committee: Alastair Butler (Chair) Daisuke Bekki Eric McCready Yoshiki Mori Yasuo Nakayama Katsuhiko Yabushita Tomoyuki Yamada Shunsuke Yatabe Kei Yoshimoto
