CALCO Young Researchers Workshop
August 29, 2011
News
The post-proceedings of CALCO-Jnr are now published as a University of Southampton ePrint.
The CALCO Young Researchers Workshop, CALCO-Jnr, is a CALCO satellite workshop dedicated to presentations by PhD students and young researchers. Attendance at the workshop is open to all - it is anticipated that many CALCO conference participants will want to attend the CALCO-jnr workshop (and vice versa).
Topics of Interest
The CALCO Young Researchers Workshop invites submissions on the same topics as the CALCO conference: reporting results of theoretical work on the mathematics of algebras and coalgebras, the way these results can support methods and techniques for software development, as well as experience with the transfer of the resulting technologies into industrial practice. In particular, the workshop will encourage submissions related to the topics listed below.
- ABSTRACT MODELS AND LOGICS
Automata and languages, Categorical semantics, Modal logics, Relational systems, Graph transformation, Term rewriting, Adhesive categories. - SPECIALISED MODELS AND CALCULI
Hybrid, probabilistic, and timed systems, Calculi and models of concurrent, distributed, mobile, and context-aware computing, General systems theory and computational models (chemical, biological, etc). - ALGEBRAIC AND COALGEBRAIC SEMANTICS
Abstract data types, Inductive and coinductive methods, Re-engineering
techniques (program transformation), Semantics of conceptual modelling methods and techniques, Semantics of programming languages. - SYSTEM SPECIFICATION AND VERIFICATION
Algebraic and coalgebraic specification, Formal testing and quality assurance, Validation and verification, Generative programming and model-driven development, Models, correctness and (re)configuration of hardware/middleware/architectures, Process algebra.
Submission
CALCO-Jnr presentations will be selected according to originality, significance, and general interest, on the basis of submitted 2-page abstracts. A booklet with the abstracts of the accepted presentations will be available at the workshop.
Submissions are handled via the EasyChair system. The use of LNCS style is strongly encouraged.
After the workshop, the author(s) of each presentation will be invited to submit a full 10-15 page paper on the same topic. They will also be asked to write (anonymous) reviews of papers submitted by other authors on related topics. Additional reviewing and the final selection of papers will be carried out by the CALCO-Jnr PC.
