[Apologies for multiple postings] Dear Colleagues, Please see below the call for submissions for Workshop on Automata and Games for Synthesis, and note that the submission deadline is extended to *20th November AOE*, as the early-bird registration of FSTTCS'24 has been pushed to 24th November AOE as well. Please distribute the call, consider submitting and encourage your fellow researchers and students to submit their best work of the year! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Call for participation* Workshop on automata and games for synthesis <https://sites.google.com/view/fsttcs2024bworkshop> Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India December 19th, 2024 Co-located with Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS) 2024 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submission of contributed talks at: https://sites.google.com/view/fsttcs2024bworkshop/short-presentation --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =================== About the workshop =================== The first workshop on automata and games for synthesis is an on-site event happening on the 19th of December, 2024, in Gandhinagar, India. It is co-located with Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS) 2024, the premier international computer science conference in India, and takes place each year in December since 1981. Automated synthesis of systems from specifications has been a longstanding goal of computer science. The workshop focuses on various aspects by which automata and game solving are used to tackle problems motivated by synthesis. The workshop has several invited speakers and one session with short-presentations. For the short-presentation, *students, postdocs, and early-career researchers* are encouraged to talk about their research in 10-15 minute sessions (exact length will depend on the number of contributions). The workshop does not have any proceedings, and therefore previously published talks or ongoing work are both encouraged to be presented. Topics for the presentation at the workshop include, but are not limited to, the following: Automata Theory Synthesis Games on Finite and Infinite Graphs Computational aspects of Game Theory Concurrency and Distributed computation Formal Languages Games and Automata for Verification Specification and Verification of Finite and Infinite-state Systems ============================ Important dates and information ============================ Deadline: *November 20th 2024 (AoE) *(Extended from 14th Nov, 2024) Submit your contributions at: https://sites.google.com/view/fsttcs2024bworkshop/short-presentation Notifications: *November 25th 2024* Event: *19th December 2024* ============= Speakers ============= Dmitry Chistikov (University of Warwick) C. Aiswarya (Chennai Mathematical Institute) Youssouf Oualhadj (Université Paris-Est Créteil Val de Marne) and more to be announced. ============= Organisers ============= Sougata Bose Suman Sadhukhan K.
