This is a high-level, bi-annual conference formed by joining the forces and reputations of CMCS (the International Workshop on Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science), and WADT (the Workshop on Algebraic Development Techniques). The first and second CALCO conferences took place 2005 in Swansea, Wales (http://www.cs.swan.ac.uk/calco/index.php), and 2007 in Bergen, Norway (http://www.ii.uib.no/calco07/). The second event will take place September 2009 in Udine, Italy. CALCO 2009 will be preceded by two events on September 6, 2009. * CALCO-jnr - a CALCO Young Researchers Workshop dedicated to presentations by PhD students and by those who completed their doctoral studies within the past few years. * CALCO Tools Day - providing the opportunity to give system demonstrations. See below for more information. There are separate submission procedures for the CALCO main conference, CALCO-jnr and CALCO Tools Day, respectively. Topics of Interest ------------------ We invite submissions of technical papers that report results of theoretical work on the mathematics of algebras and coalgebras, the way these results can support methods and techniques for software development, as well as experience with the transfer of resulting technologies into industrial practice. We encourage submissions in topics included or related to those in the lists below. * Abstract models and logics - Automata and languages, - Categorical semantics, - Modal logics, - Relational systems, - Graph transformation, - Term rewriting, - Adhesive categories * Specialised models and calculi - Hybrid, probabilistic, and timed systems, - Calculi and models of concurrent, distributed, mobile, and context-aware computing, - General systems theory and computational models (chemical, biological, etc) * Algebraic and coalgebraic semantics - Abstract data types, - Inductive and coinductive methods, - Re-engineering techniques (program transformation), - Semantics of conceptual modelling methods and techniques, - Semantics of programming languages * System specification and verification - Algebraic and coalgebraic specification, - Formal testing and quality assurance, - Validation and verification, - Generative programming and model-driven development, - Models, correctness and (re)configuration of hardware/middleware/architectures, - Process algebra Submission Guidelines --------------------- Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers in English presenting original research. Submitted papers must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Experience papers are welcome, but they must clearly present general lessons learned that would be of interest and benefit to a broad audience of both researchers and practitioners. As in 2005 and 2007, it is planned to publish the proceedings in the Springer LNCS series. Final papers will be no more than 15 pages long in the format specified by Springer. It is recommended that submissions adhere to that format and length (see http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). Submissions that are clearly too long may be rejected immediately. Proofs omitted due to space limitations may be included in a clearly marked appendix. Both an abstract and the full paper must be submitted by their respective submission deadlines. A special issue of the new high-quality open access journal Logical Methods in Computer Science (http://www.lmcs-online.org), consisting of extended versions of selected papers will be produced after the conference if there are enough good papers that can be extended and revised to the standards of this journal.

Located between the Adriatic sea and the Alps, close to Venice, Austria and Slovenia, Udine is a city of Roman origins, funded by Emperor Otto in 983. Rich of historical sites, Udine is also famous for its outstanding wine and culinary traditions. CALCO Tools Day --------------- A special day at CALCO'09 is dedicated to tools based on algebraic and coalgebraic principles. These include systems/prototypes/tools developed specifically for design, checking, execution, and verification of (co)algebraic specifications, but also tools targeting different application domains but making core or interesting use of (co)algebraic techniques. Tool submissions should be no longer than 5 pages in the LNCS format; the accepted tool papers will be included in the final LNCS proceedings of the conference. The tools should be available on the web for download and evaluation. Each submission will be evaluated by at least three reviewers; one or more of the reviewers will be asked to download and run the tool. At least one of the authors of each tool paper must attend the conference to demo the tool. Submissions by e-mail to grosu@cs.uiuc.edu.
