SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
LSFA 2018
13th Workshop on Logical and Semantic Frameworks, with Applications
26-28 September 2018, Fortaleza, Brazil
http://lia.ufc.br/~lsfa2018/
https://easychair.org/cfp/LSFA2018

Logical and semantic frameworks are formal languages used to represent
logics, languages and systems. These frameworks provide foundations for the
formal specification of systems and programming languages, supporting tool
development and reasoning.

Previous editions took place in Brasília (2017, collocated with
Tableaux+FroCoS+ITP), Porto (2016), Natal (2015), Brasília (2014), São
Paulo (2013), Rio de Janeiro (2012), Belo Horizonte (2011), Natal (2010),
Brasília (2009), Salvador (2008), Ouro Preto (2007), and Natal (2006). See
http://lsfa.cic.unb.br for more information.

TOPICS OF INTEREST

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

 * Automated deduction
 * Applications of logical and/or semantic frameworks
 * Computational and logical properties of semantic frameworks
 * Formal semantics of languages and systems
 * Implementation of logical and/or semantic frameworks
 * Lambda and combinatory calculi
 * Logical aspects of computational complexity
 * Logical frameworks
 * Process calculi
 * Proof theory
 * Semantic frameworks
 * Specification languages and meta-languages
 * Type theory

SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION

Contributions should be written in English and submitted in the form of
full papers with a maximum of 13 pages (including references)  in the new
ENTCS format (http://www.entcs.org/generic.zip). Beyond full regular
papers, we encourage submissions such as proof pearls, rough diamonds,
original surveys, or overviews of research projects, where the focus is
more on elegance and dissemination than on novelty. Papers belonging to
this second category are expected to be short, that is, of a maximum of 6
pages including references, unless they also contain some novel results.

For both paper categories, additional technical material can be provided in
a clearly marked appendix which will be read by reviewers at their
discretion. Contributions must also be unpublished and not submitted
simultaneously for publication elsewhere.

Papers should be prepared in LaTeX using the generic ENTCS package (
http://www.entcs.org/generic.zip). The submission should be in the form of
a PDF file uploaded to Easychair:

          https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lsfa2018

The workshop pre-proceedings, containing the reviewed extended abstracts,
will be handed-out at workshop registration. After the workshop the authors
of both full and short papers will be invited to submit full versions of
their works for the post-proceedings to be published in ENTCS. At least one
of the authors should register for the conference.

For the reviewing process, the traditional system will be enriched with the
possibility for the reviewers to interact with the authors via an anonymous
forum associated to each paper.

IMPORTANT DATES:
 * Submission: June 10
 * Notification: July 25
 * Camera ready version: August 12
 * LSFA 2018: September 26-28

After the publication of the ENTCS proceedings, the authors of selected
papers will be invited to submit revised papers for a special issue.
Previous LSFA special issues have been published in journals such as J.
IGPL and TCS (see http://lsfa.cic.unb.br).
