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 … [View More]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: Pulse: Proof-oriented Programming with Concurrent Separation Logic in F* Meeting Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89164094870?pwd=eUFNRWp0bHYxRVpwVVNoVUdHU0djQT09 (Meeting ID: 891 6409 4870, Passcode: 082194) Abstract: F* is a dependently typed programming language. It has been used to develop more than a million lines of verified code and proofs, for artifacts ranging from cryptographic libraries to networking components. Some of this verified software runs in widely used production systems, ranging from the Windows kernel to the Python standard library. However, most of this corpus of verified code is purely sequential. Pulse is a new extension of F* enabling programming and proving imperative programs with shared-memory concurrency. Proofs in Pulse are conducted in a new program logic called PulseCore, a concurrent separation logic with state-of-the-art features, including higher-order ghost state and impredicative invariants, backed by a foundational semantics developed within F* itself. Programs are verified in Pulse using a custom checker with a combination of tactics and SMT solving. Once proven, programs in Pulse can be extracted to OCaml, C, or Rust, depending on the libraries and features used. Pulse is being used in a number of new projects, including in the development of verified firmware, in new libraries for secure data formatting, and for verified CPU/GPU programs. I will provide some background on F* and concurrent separation logic, and then introduce Pulse by way of examples and a tool demonstration. Bio: Nikhil Swamy is a researcher at Microsoft Research in Redmond, working in the Research in Software Engineering (RiSE) group. He is interested in type systems, program logics, functional programming, program verification and interactive theorem proving, and also in the use of these techniques to build provably secure programs, including web applications, web browsers, crypto protocol implementations, and low-level systems code.

The first goal of the ALFA project was to share our experience as teachers among Aracne members. We proposed: (1) the preparation of a metabook (with hypertext version), (2) the design of an on-line dictionary of logic terms, (3) the investigation of the existing software for the teaching of logic, (4) the translation of both elementary and interdisciplinary texts and software, (5) to help potential authors to write lecture notes, (6) the dissemination of our project both within our academic community and outside it (high school), thus bolstering a good image of Logic and (7) to support women’s participation in higher education. The network we created was interdisciplinary and included professors and researchers from philosophy, mathematics, computer science, and linguistics. Some of the results of the project can be consulted on the Aracne website (aracne.usal.es.) and others in the Summa Logicae digital library (logicae.usal.es) Speaker Bio: María Gracia Manzano Arjona is a Spanish philosopher specializing in mathematical logic and model theory. Manzano earned her Ph.D. in 1977 from the University of Barcelona. Her dissertation, Sistemas generales de la lógica de segundo orden [General systems of second-order logic], was supervised by Jesús Mosterín. She is a professor of logic and the philosophy of science at the University of Salamanca.

Both Regular and Tool & Case Study papers must use the IEEE Transactions format on letter-size paper with a 10-point font size; preferably, use the FMCAD template for papers. Papers in both categories can be either 8 pages (long) or 4 pages (short) in length excluding references. Short papers that describe emerging results, practical experiences, or original ideas that can be described succinctly are encouraged. Authors will be required to select an appropriate paper category at abstract submission time. Submissions may contain an optional appendix, which will not appear in the final version of the paper. The reviewers should be able to assess the quality and the relevance of the results in the paper without reading the appendix. Submissions in all categories must contain original research that has not been previously published, nor is concurrently submitted for publication. Any partial overlap with published or concurrently submitted papers must be clearly indicated. FMCAD employs a rigorous peer-review process and each submission will be reviewed by at least four members of the program committee. The review process is single-blind. The review process will incorporate a feedback and rebuttal period during which authors will have the opportunity to formally respond to reviewer comments. **New - Artifact Evaluation:**FMCAD 2025 introduces optional artifact evaluation to enhance transparency and the usability of research outcomes. Authors reporting experimental results are strongly encouraged to publish their final data in a long-term repository (e.g. zenodo (https://zenodo.org)). With artifacts serving as supplementary evidence, high-quality artifacts can improve the likelihood of paper acceptance. Artifact evaluation will be integrated into the main review process, with one selected program committee member assessing the quality of the artifact alongside the paper. Accepted artifacts require a DOI and will be clearly identified in the published paper. Details are available on the Artifacts Page (https://fmcad.org/FMCAD25/cfa). Accepted papers are published by TU Wien Academic Press under a Creative Commons license (the authors retain the copyright) and distributed through the IEEE XPlore digital library. IEEE CEDA is a technical co-sponsor of FMCAD. There are no publication fees. Authors of accepted contributions will be required to sign the FMCAD copyright transfer form found here: https://fmcad.or.at/pdf/copyright.pdf. For each accepted paper, at least one unique author must register for the conference. Moreover, authors of accepted papers ensure that at least one of them will attend the conference and present the work. ## Student Forum Continuing the tradition of the previous years, FMCAD 2025 will host a Student Forum that provides a platform for graduate students at any career stage to introduce their research to the wider Formal Methods community, and solicit feedback. Submissions for the student forum must be short reports describing research ideas or ongoing work that the student is currently pursuing, and must be within the scope of FMCAD. Work that has been partly published previously might be considered; the novel aspect to be addressed in future work must be clearly described in such cases. All submissions will be reviewed by a selected group of FMCAD student forum committee members. Details are available on the Student Forum Page (https://fmcad.org/FMCAD25/student_forum). ## FMCAD 2025 Committees ### Program Chair Ahmed Irfan, SRI, CA, USA Daniela Kaufmann, TU Wien, Austria ### Program Committee Guy Amir, Cornell University Erika Ábrahám, RWTH Aachen University Kshitij Bansal, Google Haniel Barbosa, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais Per Bjesse, Synopsys Inc.
