Brazilian Workshop on Logical and Semantic Frameworks, with Applications
LSFA'06 - FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
September 17th, 2006,
Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil
(Satellite Event to SBMF'06, the Brazilian Symposium on Formal
Methods, to be held together with the International Conference on
Graph Transformations, ICGT'06)
> Scope
Logical frameworks and semantic frameworks are formal languages used
to represent logics, languages and systems. These frameworks provide
foundations for formal specification of systems and programming
languages,
supporting tool development and reasoning.
The objective of this one-day workshop is to put together
theoreticians and practitioners to promote new techniques and results,
from the theoretical side, and feedback on the implementation and use
of such techniques and results, from the practical side.
Topics of interest to this forum include, but are not limited to:
- Logical frameworks
* Proof theory
* Type theory
* Automated deduction
- Semantic frameworks
* Specification languages and meta-languages
* Formal semantics of languages and systems
* Computational and logical properties of semantic frameworks
- Implementation of logical and/or semantic frameworks
- Applications of logical and/or semantic frameworks
LSFA'06 aims to be a forum for presenting and discussing work in
progress. The proceedings of the symposium are produced only after the
symposium, so that authors can incorporate feedback from the workshop
in the published papers.
