WORKSHOP ON LOGIC AND SEARCH - LaSh 2014
Representing and Solving Computational Search Problems

Final Call For Submissions

With Revised Submission Deadline (May 15), Final PC, Confirmed Speakers

Vienna, Austria, July 18, 2014
http://vsl2014.at/lash/

A FLoC 2014 Workshop, Associated with SAT and ICLP

OVERVIEW

The purpose of the LaSh workshops is to foster scientific exchange on
subjects related to languages for representing, and methods for solving,
computationally challenging search problems. The scope includes study of
relevant logics, algorithms, and logic-based systems, and also study of
other languages and systems from the viewpoint of logic, broadly construed.

Hard combinatorial search and optimization problems abound in science,
engineering, and other areas. Examples include planning, scheduling and
configuration problems. Several communities have developed general purpose
solving technologies for such problems, supported by declarative modelling
or specification languages. These include answer set programming (ASP)
from knowledge representation (KR), constraint solvers and modelling languages
from constraint programming (CP), and integer linear programming (ILP) solvers
and algebraic modelling languages from mathematical programming. Other
relevant areas include propositional satisfiability (SAT), satisfiability
modulo theories (SMT), and representation languages based on classical
logic and FO(ID).

Differences in emphasis notwithstanding, these share the same purpose.
Indeed, there are many similarities in solving technologies, and increasing
exchange between the areas both in solving and representational issues.
>From a logical point of view, whether a given language or system is
described in logical terms or not, we have languages which define some
class of structures, and systems whose purpose is to compute structures
in the class. Logic may be seen as an explicit basis for building systems,
as an analytic tool, or as a formal approach to viewing the diversity of
systems more uniformly.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Logics relevant to the study of search and optimization problems
- Languages for specifying or modelling search or optimization problems
- Reasoning about or with specifications of search problems
- Grounding and related language transformation methods
- Expressiveness and complexity of logics and languages
- Ground Solvers and their languages: SAT, ASP, SMT, FlatZinc, etc.
- New or extended ground solver languages: SAT+Cardinality, SAT+TC, etc.
- Design of systems, solvers, and related tools
- Approximation, tractable problem classes, etc.
- Proof systems and inference methods underlying solvers.
- Comparisons of different languages or methods
- Interesting applications, either as case studies or challenges
- Benchmark problems and instance collections

* Camera Ready Version: August 14, 2014

========================================================================

Scope: Organizations are increasingly concerned about the privacy of
information that they manage (several people have filed lawsuits
against organizations violating the privacy of customer's data). Thus,
the management of privacy-sensitive information is very critical and
important for every organization. This poses several challenging
problems, such as how to translate the high-level business goals into
system-level privacy policies, administration of privacy-sensitive
data, privacy data integration and engineering, privacy access control
mechanisms, information-oriented security, and query execution on
privacy-sensitive data for partial answers.

Topics: The aim of this workshop is to discuss and exchange the ideas
related to privacy data management. We invite papers from researchers
and practitioners working in privacy, security, trustworthy data
systems and related areas to submit their original papers in this
workshop. The main topics, but not limited to, include:

* Privacy Information Management
* Privacy Policy-based Infrastructures and Architectures
* Privacy-oriented Access Control Languages and Models
* Privacy in Trust Management
* Privacy in Digital Currencies
* Privacy Data Integration
* Privacy Risk Assessment and Assurance
* Privacy Services
* Cryptography and Cryptanalysis
* Privacy Policy Analysis
* Query Execution over Privacy Sensitive Data
* Privacy Preserving Data Mining
* Hippocratic and Water-marking Databases
* Privacy for Integrity-based Computing
* Privacy Monitoring and Auditing
* Privacy in Social Networks
* Privacy in Ambient Intelligence (AmI) Applications
* Individual Privacy vs. Corporate/National Security
* Privacy in computer networks
* Privacy and RFIDs
* Privacy and Big Data
* Privacy in sensor networks

========================================================================

Submission guidelines: Papers should be at most 15 pages (using
11-point font), excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices.
Committee members are not required to read the appendices, so the
paper should be intelligible without them. All submissions must be
written in English.

Authors must submit their papers by the deadline indicated below,
using the EasyChair web site (at easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dpm2014)
and following the requirements stated there.

The submitted paper (in PDF format) should follow the template
indicated by Springer (see http://springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html).
It must start with a title, a short abstract, names and affiliations
of the authors, and a list of keywords.

All papers will be refereed. Accepted papers should be presented at
the Workshop. At least one author of each accepted paper must register
to the workshop, by the early date indicated by the organizers, and
present the paper.

The proceedings will be published in a volume of Lecture Notes in
Computer Science (Springer-Verlag).

Submissions by PhD students as well as controversial ideas are
encouraged. Case studies (successful or not) are also encouraged.

It is expected that extended and revised version of the best papers
from the workshop will be considered for international journal special

Submission
----------
Papers are to be submitted electronically, following the guidelines on
the conference web page. Submissions must be in English, in .ps or .pdf
format, and begin with a cover page (not a cover letter) including:
(1) title,
(2) authors? names and affiliations,
(3) contact author?s postal and email address,
(4) a short abstract of the paper,
(5) indication of whether this is a regular paper or a brief
announcement, and
(6) indication of whether the paper is eligible for best student paper
award.

A submission for a regular presentation must report on original research
that has not previously appeared, and has not been concurrently
submitted to a journal or conference with published proceedings. Any
overlap with a published or concurrently submitted paper must be clearly
indicated. A regular submission must not exceed 10 single-column pages
using at least 11 point font on letter paper (excluding cover page and
references). Authors are expected to include all the ideas necessary for
an expert to verify the central claims in the paper. If necessary, the
details may appear in a clearly marked appendix, which will be read at
the discretion of the program committee.

A brief announcement submission must not exceed 3 pages in the same
format. It is permissible for the material in brief announcements to be
published in other conferences. Submissions not conforming to these
rules and papers outside of the scope of the conference will be rejected
without consideration. If requested by the authors on the cover page, a
regular submission that is not selected for a regular presentation can
be considered for the brief announcement format. Such a request will not
affect consideration of the paper for a regular presentation.


Publication
-----------
The proceedings will be published as a volume in the ARCoSS Springer
Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Camera-ready versions of
accepted papers must be submitted in the LNCS format.


Awards
------
Awards will be given to the best paper and the best student paper. To be
