27 Mar '24

Dear all, The next talk in the IARCS Verification Seminar Series will be given by Azadeh Farzan, a Professor in the Computer Science Department of University of Toronto. The talk is scheduled on Tuesday, April 02, at 1900 hrs IST (add to Google calendar <https://calendar.google.com/calendar/event?action=TEMPLATE&tmeid=NGxmbmFvYX…> ). The details of the talk can be found on our webpage ( https://fmindia.cmi.ac.in/vss/) and also appended to the body of this email. The Verification Seminar Series, an initiative by the Indian Association for Research in Computing Science (IARCS), is a monthly, online talk-series, broadly in the area of Formal Methods and Programming Languages, with applications in Verification and Synthesis. The aim of this talk-series is to provide a platform for Formal Methods researchers to interact regularly. In addition, we hope that it will make it easier for researchers to explore newer problems/areas and collaborate on them, and for younger researchers to start working in these areas. All are welcome to join. Best regards, Akash, Deepak, Madhukar, Srivathsan ============================================================= Title: Coarser Equivalences for Causal Concurrency Meeting Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89164094870?pwd=eUFNRWp0bHYxRVpwVVNoVUdHU0djQT09 (Meeting ID: 891 6409 4870, Passcode: 082194) Abstract: In this talk, I will discuss relaxations of trace equivalence with the goal of maintaining its algorithmic advantages. Specifically, for the problem of checking, in a streaming setting, if two arbitrary steps of a concurrent program run are causally concurrent (i.e. they can be reordered in an equivalent run) or causally ordered (i.e. they always appear in the same order in all equivalent runs), trace equivalence yields constant-space algorithms. I will discuss how certain relaxations, provably, do not yield similar efficient algorithms. Then, I will introduce a new commutativity-based notion of equivalence called grain equivalence that is strictly more relaxed than trace equivalence, and yet yields a constant space algorithm for the same problem. This notion of equivalence uses commutativity of grains, which are sequences of atomic steps, in addition to the standard commutativity from trace theory. I will discuss two distinct cases when the grains are contiguous subwords of the input program run and when they are not, formulate the precise definition of causal concurrency in each case, and show that they can be decided in constant space, despite being strict relaxations of the notion of causal concurrency based on trace equivalence. Bio: Azadeh Farzan is a Professor in the Computer Science Department of University of Toronto. She received her PhD from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Her interests are in Software Verification, Programming Languages, Formal Methods, and Security, with an emphasis on concurrency-related issues.

QEST+FORMATS: Final Call for Papers
by Patrick Totzke 25 Mar '24

25 Mar '24

======================================================== FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS ======================================================== The joint event for the International Conferences on Quantitative Evaluation of SysTems (QEST) and on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems (FORMATS) 9-13 September 2024, Calgary, Canada, as part of the CONFEST 2024 umbrella conference https://www.qest-formats.org/ IMPORTANT DATES (UPDATED) Abstract deadline: 10 April 2024 (Anytime on Earth) Paper deadline: 15 April 2024 (Anytime on Earth) Author notification: 31 May 2024 Camera ready submission: 17 June 2024 Conference: 9-13 September 2024 SCOPE AND TOPICS The two flagship conferences of QEST (International Conference on Quantitative Evaluation of SysTems) and FORMATS (International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems) are pursuing a strategic process of joining forces and sparking a new joint conference for quantitative modelling, analysis, and verification. This year, the two conferences form the QEST+FORMATS joint conference in 2024, which will be held on 9-13 September 2024 in Calgary, Canada, as part of the CONFEST 2024 umbrella conference. The joint conference is the leading forum for the quantitative evaluation and verification of systems, which aims to promote the study of fundamental and practical aspects of systems with quantitative nature (such as probability, timing, and cost), and brings together researchers from different disciplines that share interests in the modelling, design and analysis of computational systems. Systems of interest include biological and chemical systems; computer networks; cyber-physical systems; critical infrastructures; data-driven AI systems; energy systems; hardware and software systems; industrial systems; and mobility networks. The QEST+FORMATS joint conference also aims to attract researchers interested in real-time issues in hardware design, performance analysis, real-time software, scheduling, semantics and verification of timed, hybrid and probabilistic systems. Topics and scientific areas of interest include: - Models and metrics for the correctness, performance, reliability, safety, and security of systems (stochastic, probabilistic, and non-deterministic models including Markov chains, Markov decision processes, automata, Petri nets, process algebra, max-plus algebra, and their variations); - Languages and methods for the specification of quantitative properties of systems; - Techniques, algorithms, and data structures for analysis, evaluation, and verification of the models mentioned above, e.g., for model checking, testing, constraint solving, scheduling, optimization, and worst-case execution time analysis; - Quantitative and probabilistic aspects of programming; - Data-driven and machine-learning techniques for the analysis, prediction, and verification of quantitative properties of systems; - Case studies that highlight the role of quantitative specification, modelling, and evaluation in the design and analysis of systems, with emphasis on emerging problems and technologies; - Novel software tools to support the practical application of research results in all of the above areas; The joint QEST+FORMATS conference is open to theoretical, experimental, and applicative research and will set up an artifact evaluation process. Papers may advance the state of the art on empirical approaches, simulation methods, analysis techniques, and applications to industrially relevant case studies. The joint conference will have two tracks associated with QEST and FORMATS. The authors are required to select one of these tracks when submitting their papers. This is only used to facilitate the review process. This year, QEST+FORMATS will incorporate a special session on: - Data-driven verification and synthesis of cyber-physical systems. We encourage the submission of papers on all data-driven approaches related to the formal analysis, verification, and synthesis of cyber-physical systems, including learning techniques for safety-critical systems and safe learning of such systems. SUBMISSIONS QEST+FORMATS 2024 considers three types of papers (authors will be able to specify the type of contribution upon submission): - Research papers: Theoretical, methodological, and application-based contributions that advance the understanding on a topic or issue, describe the development of new analysis processes and techniques, or apply quantitative methods to relevant case studies. - Tool papers: New tools and the formalisms they support. focusing on the software architecture and practical implementation and use. Tool papers must be accompanied by an artifact in the Artifact Evaluation. - Work-in-progress papers: We offer an opportunity to present preliminary results and receive feedback from the community. Work-in-progress contributions are not required to be fully worked-out approaches, for example regarding validation or technical depth; however the presented ideas should be mature enough to appreciate soundness and how they advance our knowledge. Research and tool papers can be regular or short: - Regular papers must not exceed 14 pages, excluding references. - Short papers should be limited to 7 pages, also excluding references. All papers can have an appendix containing supporting material. Note that reviewers are not required to read the appendix to fully assess the merits of the paper. Work-in-progress papers must not exceed 4 pages including references. All papers must be submitted in Springer’s LNCS format. All submitted papers must be unpublished and not be submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers should be submitted electronically using EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=qestformats2024 Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. Authors should consult Springer’s authors’ guidelines and use Springer’s LaTeX templates for the preparation of their papers. Submitted papers not complying with the above guidelines may be rejected without undergoing review. The top two best papers of the conference will be selected for the QEST Award and the FORMATS Oded Maler Award. PUBLICATIONS All accepted papers will be presented and discussed at the conference by one of the authors. The QEST+FORMATS 2024 proceedings will be published in the Springer LNCS series and indexed by ISI Web of Science, Scopus, ACM Digital Library, dblp, Google Scholar. All submitted papers will be evaluated by at least three reviewers on the basis of their originality, technical quality, scientific or practical contribution to the state of the art, methodology, clarity, and adequacy of references. ARTIFACT EVALUATION Reproducibility of experimental results is crucial to foster an atmosphere of trustworthy, open, and reusable research. To improve and reward reproducibility, QEST+FORMATS 2024 includes a dedicated Artifact Evaluation (AE). Submission of an artifact is mandatory for tool papers (both regular and short), and optional but encouraged for research papers where it can support the results presented in the paper. Artifacts will be reviewed concurrently with the paper review process, and accepted papers with a successfully evaluated artifact will receive a badge to be shown on the published paper's title page. Detailed guidelines for preparation and submission of artifacts will be available on the conference website. Exceptions to the submission guidelines may be granted by the PC chairs in cases where the tool cannot in any reasonable way be run by the AE committee. SPECIAL ISSUES A selection of the best papers (excluding work-in-progress papers) will be invited to submit an extended version of their work to special issues in the International Journal on Software Tools for Technology Transfer (STTT) and the Performance Evaluation (PEVA) journals.

Meeting Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89164094870?pwd=eUFNRWp0bHYxRVpwVVNoVUdHU0djQT09 (Meeting ID: 891 6409 4870, Passcode: 082194) Abstract: In a two-player zero-sum graph game, the players move a token throughout the game, producing an infinite play, which determines the winner of the game. Bidding games are graph games in which in each turn, a bidding (auction) determines which player moves the token: the players have budgets, and in each turn, both players simultaneously submit the bids that do not exceed the available budgets. The higher bidder moves the token, and pays the bid to the lower bidder (called Richman bidding). The standard solution concept of interest in bidding games are threshold budgets: the necessary and sufficient budget for winning the game. In this survey talk, on the theoretical side, we will explore discrete bidding games, where the keyword discrete stands for the bids having a fixed granularity. We obtain membership in NP ∩ coNP for solving parity bidding games with exponentially succinct representation. This will be followed by our newly proposed application of bidding games to a decentralized synthesis problem for multi-objective decision making. Here, synthesized policies express their scheduling urgency via bids and a bounded budget guarantees long-run fairness. Moreover, our proposed solution framework is modular, in the sense that if one objective changes, we may still combine the policy for the other objective without having the need to recompute it from scratch. These works have been in collaboration with Guy Avni and Kaushik Mallik. Bio: Suman Sadhukhan is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Haifa, primarily working with Guy Avni on Bidding Games on Graphs. He obtained his PhD in 2022 from Inria Rennes where he was advised by Nathalie Bertrand, Nicolas Markey and Ocan Sankur, and worked on dynamic network congestion games from a verification perspective. He is interested in, but not restricted to, Games on Graphs, studying different game theoretic models from formal verification and reactive synthesis viewpoint. Prior to his PhD training, he was a student at Chennai Mathematical Institute where he studied Theoretical Computer Science and Mathematics.
