Third International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and
Deduction (FSCD'18)
Oxford, UK, July 9 - 12th, 2018.

Part of The Federated Logic Conference, FLoC 2018,
Oxford, UK, July 6 - 19th, 2018.

==================================================================
TOPICS: FSCD covers all aspects of formal structures for computation and
deduction from theoretical foundations to applications. Building on two
communities, RTA (Rewriting Techniques and Applications) and TLCA (Typed
Lambda Calculi and Applications), FSCD embraces their core topics and
broadens their scope to closely related areas in logics, proof theory and
new emerging models of computation such as quantum computing or homotopy
type theory.
Suggested, but not exclusive, list of topics for submission are:
1. Calculi: Lambda calculus - Concurrent calculi - Logics - Rewriting
systems - Proof theory - Type theory and logical frameworks
2. Methods in Computation and Deduction: Type systems - Induction and
coinduction - Matching, unification, completion, and orderings -
Strategies - Tree automata - Model checking - Proof search and theorem
proving - Constraint solving and decision procedures
3. Semantics: Operational semantics - Abstract machines - Game Semantics -
Domain theory and categorical models - Quantitative models
4. Algorithmic Analysis and Transformations of Formal Systems: Type
Inference and type checking - Abstract Interpretation - Complexity
analysis and implicit computational complexity - Checking termination,
confluence, derivational complexity and related properties - Symbolic
computation
5. Tools and Applications: Programming and proof environments -
Verification tools - Libraries for proof assistants and interactive
theorem provers - Case studies in proof assistants and interactive theorem
provers - Certification - Applications to security, planning, data bases,?
BEST PAPER AWARD BY JUNIOR RESEARCHERS: The program committee will
consider declaring this award to a paper in which at least one author is a
junior researcher, i.e. either a student or whose PhD award date is less
than three years from the first day of the meeting. Other authors should
declare to the PC Chair that at least 50% of contribution is made by the
junior researcher(s).
PUBLICATION : The proceedings will be published as an electronic volume in
the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) of Schloss
Dagstuhl. http://www.dagstuhl.de/publikationen/lipics/
<http://www.dagstuhl.de/publikationen/lipics/> All LIPIcs proceedings are
open access.
SPECIAL ISSUE: Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an
extended version for a special issue of Logical Methods in Computer
Science.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: Submissions can be made in two categories.
- Regular research papers are limited to 15 pages and must present
original research which is unpublished and not submitted elsewhere.
- System descriptions are limited to 6 pages (excluding references) and
must present new software tools in which FSCD topics play an important
role, or significantly new versions of such tools. Please check
http://www.cs.le.ac.uk/events/fscd2018/cfp.html#guidelines
<http://www.cs.le.ac.uk/events/fscd2018/cfp.html#guidelines>, for more
details on what should a system description contain.
Submissions must be formatted using the LIPIcs style files
(http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/instructions-for-authors/)
and submitted via EasyChair
(https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fscd18
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fscd18>).
IMPORTANT DATES: All deadlines are midnight anywhere-on-earth (AoE); late
submissions will not be considered.
