Second call for papers
18th International Symposium on
Principles and Practice of Declarative Programming
PPDP 2016
Special Issue of Science of Computer Programming (SCP)
Edinburgh, UK, September 5-7, 2016
(co-located with LOPSTR and SAS)
http://ppdp16.webs.upv.es/
======================================================================
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: 9 MAY (abstracts) / 16 MAY (papers)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
INVITED SPEAKERS
Elvira Albert, Complutense University of Madrid, Spain
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PPDP 2016 is a forum that brings together researchers from the
declarative programming communities, including those working in the
logic, constraint and functional programming paradigms, but also
embracing languages, database languages, and knowledge representation
languages. The goal is to stimulate research in the use of logical
formalisms and methods for specifying, performing, and analyzing
computations, including mechanisms for mobility, modularity,
concurrency, object-orientation, security, verification and static
analysis. Papers related to the use of declarative paradigms and tools
in industry and education are especially solicited. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to
* Functional programming
* Logic programming
* Answer-set programming
* Functional-logic programming
* Declarative visual languages
* Constraint Handling Rules
* Parallel implementation and concurrency
* Monads, type classes and dependent type systems
* Declarative domain-specific languages
* Termination, resource analysis and the verification of declarative programs
* Transformation and partial evaluation of declarative languages
* Language extensions for security and tabulation
* Probabilistic modeling in a declarative language and modeling reactivity
* Memory management and the implementation of declarative systems
* Practical experiences and industrial application
This year the conference will be co-located with the 26th Int'l Symp.
on Logic-Based Program Synthesis and Transformation (LOPSTR 2016) and
the 23rd Static Analysis Symposium (SAS 2016).
The conference will be held in Edinburgh, UK. Previous symposia were
held at Siena (Italy), Canterbury (UK), Madrid (Spain), Leuven
(Belgium), Odense (Denmark), Hagenberg (Austria), Coimbra (Portugal),
Valencia (Spain), Wroclaw (Poland), Venice (Italy), Lisboa (Portugal),
Verona (Italy), Uppsala (Sweden), Pittsburgh (USA), Florence (Italy),
Montreal (Canada), and Paris (France). You might have a look at the
contents of past PPDP symposia, http://sites.google.com/site/ppdpconf/
Papers must describe original work, be written and presented in
English, and must not substantially overlap with papers that have been
published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal,
conference, or workshop with refereed proceedings. Work that already
appeared in unpublished or informally published workshop proceedings
may be submitted (please contact the PC chair in case of questions).
After the symposium, a selection of the best papers will be invited to
extend their submissions in the light of the feedback solicited at the
symposium. The papers are expected to include at least 30% extra
material over and above the PPDP version. Then, after another round of
reviewing, these revised papers will be published in a special issue
of SCP with a target publication date by Elsevier of 2017.
Important Dates
Abstract submission: 9 May, 2016
Paper submission: 16 May, 2016
Notification: 20 June, 2016
Final version of papers: 17 July, 2016
Symposium: 5-7 September, 2016
Authors should submit an electronic copy of the full paper in
PDF. Papers should be submitted to the submission website for PPDP
2016. Each submission must include on its first page the paper title;
authors and their affiliations; abstract; and three to four
keywords. The keywords will be used to assist the program committee in
selecting appropriate reviewers for the paper. Papers should consist
of the equivalent of 12 pages under the ACM formatting
guidelines. These guidelines are available online, along with
formatting templates or style files. Submitted papers will be judged
on the basis of significance, relevance, correctness, originality, and
clarity. They should include a clear identification of what has been
accomplished and why it is significant. Authors who wish to provide
additional material to the reviewers beyond the 12-page limit can do
so in clearly marked appendices: reviewers are not required to read
such appendices.

- 要旨:
本発表では、名辞・概念・対象の意味論的関係を反映した内包的論理の新しい体系を提示する。提示される体系の意味論では、可能世
界意味論に基づく内包的論理の体系では扱うことができない古典的な意味での内包や外延を定義することができる。また、「2は最小

新しい意味論における完全性定理など、いくつかの結果についても概観される。

題目:Towards a unification of paraconsistent logics
- 概要:
Paraconsistent logics are characterized by the failure of *ex
contradictione quodlibet* (ECQ hereafter). Since the modern birth of
paraconsistency, infinitely many systems of paraconsistent logic
have been
devised and studied based on various motivations. After all, it
seems that
paraconsistent logics are only loosely connected to each other
by a rather
general requirement that ECQ should be invalid. But is it really
impossible
to unify paraconsistent logics? The purpose of the paper is to
explore that
possibility.
The paper aims at the following claim: paraconsistent negations of
the four-valued logic of Nuel Belnap and Michael Dunn and the
three-valued
logic known as the Logic of Paradox, developed by Graham Priest,
are at the
core of paraconsistency. Different systems of paraconsistent
logic can then
be classified by the additional connectives and their semantics.
The first
half of the paper discusses the classification. In the second half of the
paper, we address the question as to whether we can include Jaskowski’s
discussive logic in this picture. We show that there is an affirmative
answer to this question.

題名「語り得ぬもの」のパラドクス
講演要旨
「語
り得ぬもの」という語は古今東西を問わず様々な思想で立ち現れてきた概念である。しかし広く知られているように、この概念は矛盾を惹起する。というのも、
「xは語り得ぬものである」と言ったとき、xは当の「語り得ぬものである」という語によって事実語られてしまうため、「xは語り得ぬものである、かつ、語
り得ぬものではない」が導かれてしまうからだ。このパラドクスを解消して「語り得ぬもの」を無矛盾に使用しようとしてきた人々もあったが、彼らの試みは失
敗に終わっている。その理由として、一つには、彼らはこのパラドクスがなぜ生じるのかということに、すなわちパラドクスのメカニズムにあまり注目してこな
かったことが挙げられよう。本発表は、このパラドクスのメカニズムにフォーカスを当てるものである。

Title: Lambda Calculus for Classical Logic and Bilateralism in
Proof-Theoretic Semantics
- Abstract:
The Curry-Howard isomorphism is a notion which expresses the
correspondence between mathematical proofs and computer programs. It is
also known as "propositions-as-types" or "proofs-as-programs":
propositions
corresponds to types (which are restrictions for programs as Russell used
for his theory in order to overcome the Russell's paradox); proofs
corresponds to programs since some kind of programming language
can be seen
as realizability interpretation models of constructive logic.
Thanks to the
isomorphism, we can clarify what notions are common, and what notions
essentially belong in part of logic or part of computation.
In this talk, two parts will be given. Firstly, I will introduce a
well-known isomorphism, which was originally found by Griffin, between a
lambda calculus (a programming language) and a classical natural
deduction.
Secondly, I will discuss similarities and dissimilarities between such
calculi for classical logic and bilateralism in proof-theoretic semantics.

(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.

Workshop on Williamson’s Philosophy
Call for Papers
6 (Thursday) . 7(Friday) October, 2016
The Program for Logic, Mind and Methodology (LMM),
Department of Philosophy,
National Taiwan University, Taiwan
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.]
