=== Preliminary Call for contributions ===
Workshop on Fixed Points in Computer Science
19 & 20 February 2024
https://www.irif.fr/users/saurin/fics2024/index.html
This year, FICS workshop (Workshop on Fixed Points in Computer Science)
will take place in Naples on the 19th and 20th of February, 2024,
affiliated with CSL 2024 (https://csl2024.github.io/Home/).
== About FICS workshop series ==
The goal is to bring together people from different subfields such as
algebra/coalgebra, verification, logic, around the thematic of fixed
points. Fixed points play a fundamental role in several areas of
computer science. They are used to justify (co)recursive definitions and
associated reasoning techniques. The construction and properties of
fixed points have been investigated in many different settings such as:
design and implementation of programming languages, logics,
verification, databases.
== Scope ==
Topics include, but are not restricted to:
fixed points in automated theorem proving, interactive theorem proving
and logic programming
fixed points in finite model theory, descriptive complexity theory,
and databases
fixed points in category theory for logic in computer science
== Important dates ==
== Types of submissions ==
This year, we welcome two categories of submissions, short abstracts as
well as extended abstracts:
short abstracts are abstracts of 3 to 5 pages, references included,
describing the topic of the proposed contributed talk. They may contain
(i) new completed results, (ii) work in progress or (iii) already
(recently) published or submitted works. The submission can refer to a
published paper or a preprint but the description given in the short
abstract should be sufficiently detailed for the PC to judge the
relevance of the proposed talk to the workshop program.
extended abstracts are papers of 6 to 10 pages, references excluded,
describing original results which have not been published nor are
currently submitted elsewhere. The results must be presented in
sufficient details to constitute a scientific publication. An appendix
can provide additional details for the reviewer but will be read at the
discretion of the reviewers. We plan to have formal proceedings for
extended abstract, more details will be posted on FICS website and in
forthcoming calls for contributions.
Both types of submissions will be handled via Easychair and will be
peer-reviewed by the PC.
== Journal publication ==
Depending on the number and quality of submissions, we will plan a
subsequent special issue of a journal, as often done for previous
editions of the workshop.
== Program Committee ==
Alexis Saurin, PC chair
Program committee: to be announced soon
