Dear colleague, As you may know, FSTTCS 2023 is the 43rd conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science. It is organised by IARCS, the Indian Association for Research in Computing Science in association with ACM India. It is a very visible forum for presenting original results in foundational aspects of Computer Science and Software Technology. This year, co-located with the main FSTTCS conference, IARCS is also organizing the Workshop on Research Highlights in Programming Languages (RHPL@FSTTCS), whose inaugural edition was held in 2020. The focus of the workshop will be on all areas of Programming Languages, including but not limited to Program Analysis and Verification, Applied Formal Methods, and Compilers. The objective of the workshop is to foster interactions between the attendees of the workshop, and more broadly between researchers working on Programming Languages and the traditional FSTTCS community of researchers working on Theoretical Computer Science and Formal Methods. We solicit talk proposals for recent work that has been published in good venues, or is mature in terms of approach and evaluation. More information about the workshop and about submitting talk proposals is available here: https://fmindia.cmi.ac.in/rhpl/index.html We look forward to receiving your talk proposals to this workshop.

IARCS Verification Seminar Series -- Talk by Shaz Qadeer on July 11 at 1900 hrs IST

by VSS IARCS

Dear all, The next talk in the IARCS Verification Seminar Series will be given by Shaz Qadeer, an ACM Fellow, currently employed as a software engineer in the Core Infrastructure department at Meta. The talk is scheduled on Tuesday, July 11, at 1900 hrs IST (add to Google calendar <https://calendar.google.com/calendar/event?action=TEMPLATE&tmeid=MHF2OTJoMm…> ). 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: Verification of Concurrent Programs with Civl Meeting Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89164094870?pwd=eUFNRWp0bHYxRVpwVVNoVUdHU0djQT09 (Meeting ID: 891 6409 4870, Passcode: 082194) Abstract: The Civl verifier <https://civl-verifier.github.io/> introduces layered refinement, a new approach to the construction of verified concurrent programs and their proofs. This approach simplifies and scales (human and automated) reasoning by enabling a concurrent program to be represented and manipulated at multiple layers of abstraction. These abstraction layers are chained together via simple program transformations; each transformation is justified by a collection of automatically-checked verification conditions. Civl proofs are maintainable and reusable, specifically eliminating the need to write complex invariants on the low-level encoding of the concurrent program as a flat transition system. Civl has been used to construct verified low-level implementations of complex systems such as a concurrent garbage collector, a consensus protocol, and shared-memory data structures. Bio: Shaz Qadeer is an ACM Fellow. His research focuses on practical tools for the construction of verified concurrent and distributed systems. He is currently employed as a software engineer in the Core Infrastructure department at Meta.

Organizations are increasingly concerned about the privacy of information that they manage (as witnessed, for example, by lawsuits filed against organizations for violating the privacy of customer's data). Thus, the management of privacy-sensitive information is very critical and important for every organization. This poses several challenging problems, such as how to translate the high-level business goals into system-level privacy policies, administration of privacy-sensitive data, privacy preserving data integration and engineering, privacy preserving access control mechanisms, information-oriented security, and query execution on privacy-sensitive data for partial answers. Starting from these observations, the aim of DPM is to discuss and exchange ideas related to data privacy management. We invite papers from researchers and practitioners working in privacy, security, trustworthy data systems and related areas to submit their original papers in this workshop. Submissions by PhD students as well as controversial ideas are encouraged. Case studies (successful or not) are also encouraged. TOPICS ======== Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Privacy in Machine Learning - Privacy Information Management - Privacy Policy-based Infrastructures and Architectures - Privacy-oriented Access Control Languages and Models - Privacy in Trust Management - Privacy in Cryptocurrencies - Privacy Data Integration - Privacy Risk Assessment and Assurance - Privacy Services - Privacy Policy Analysis - Data Protection Regulations in Practice - Cryptographic Protocols for Privacy - Query Execution over Privacy Sensitive Data - Privacy Preserving Data Mining - Privacy for Integrity-based Computing - Privacy Monitoring and Auditing - Privacy in Social Networks - Privacy in Ambient Intelligence (AmI) Applications - Individual Privacy vs. Corporate/National Security - Privacy in computer networks - Privacy and RFIDs - Privacy and Big Data - Privacy in sensor networks - Privacy in the Internet of Things PAPER SUBMISSIONS =================== Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings.
