*********************************** * * * RTA'06 CALL FOR PARTICIPATION * * * *********************************** http://www.easychair.org/FLoC-06/RTA.html Seattle, WA, USA August 12-14, 2006 Affiliated workshops Aug 11 & 15 The 17th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA'06) is organized as part of the Federated Logic Conference (FLoC), collocated with CAV, ICLP, IJCAR, LICS, SAT, and several affiliated workshops. RTA is the major forum for the presentation of research on all aspects of rewriting. Typical areas of interest include (but are not limited to): * Applications: case studies; rule-based (functional and logic) programming; symbolic and algebraic computation; theorem proving; system synthesis and verification; proof checking; reasoning about programming languages and logics; * Foundations: matching and unification; narrowing; completion techniques; strategies; constraint solving; explicit substitutions; tree automata; termination; * Frameworks: string, term, graph, and proof rewriting; lambda-calculus and higher-order rewriting; proof nets; constrained rewriting/deduction; categorical and infinitary rewriting; * Implementation: compilation techniques; parallel execution; rewrite tools; termination checking; * Semantics: equational logic; rewriting logic. INVITED TALKS: * Randy Bryant (jointly with LICS and SAT): Formal Verification of Infinite State Systems using Boolean Methods * Javier Esparza: Rewriting Models of Control-Flow * Juergen Giesl: Automated Termination Analysis for Haskell: From Term Rewriting to Programming Languages The complete program is available at http://www.easychair.org/FLoC-06/RTA-program.html AFFILIATES WORKSHOP * HOR'06: 3rd International Workshop on Higher-Order Rewriting * RULE'06: 7th International Workshop on Rule-Based Programming * UNIF'06: 20th International Workshop on Unification * WG1.6: Annual meeting of the IFIP Working Group 1.6 on Term Rewriting. * WRS'06: 6th International Workshop on Reduction Strategies in Rewriting and Programming * WST'06: 8th International Workshop on Termination Please refer to the RTA'06 web site for further information on the workshops.
