Dagstuhl-Seminar — Automated Synthesis: Functional, Reactive and Beyond
21 Apr 2024 - 26 Apr 2024 • Schloss Dagstuhl, Wadern, Germany
Organizer:
Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik
Abstract:
Automated synthesis of systems from specifications has been a longstanding goal of computer science. This problem has been studied by theoreticians and practitioners over decades as witnessed by an extensive and continued stream of articles related to synthesis in top-tier conferences in the field of formal methods. Despite a lot of recent progress, scalability in practical applications is still a concern. Recent advances in SAT/SMT solvers, decision tree learners, and other computational engines present an opportunity for a breakthrough in scalability. These advances have already led to powerful tools in the subarea of functional synthesis, which focuses on the synthesis of functions from relational specifications. However, much work is left to be done in order to translate these successes into scalable algorithms for more comprehensive synthesis problems, such as reactive synthesis, which aims at the automatic construction of circuits, embedded controllers, and other reactive software with complex temporal requirements. This Dagstuhl Seminar seeks to build on the recent momentum in these communities, and aims to bring together researchers in functional synthesis, reactive synthesis, and sister communities to chart the way forward. There are three broad objectives of the seminar.

Trimester Program — Boolean Analysis in Computer Science
09 Sep 2024 - 18 Dec 2024 • Bonn, Germany
Organizer:
Hausdorff Research Institute for Mathematics (HIM)
Abstract:
The trimester program aims to bring together experts, postdocs, and students in computer science and certain areas in mathematics (analysis, probability, and combinatorics) in order to learn about some challenging open problems recently raised in computer science, to use and invent necessary new tools and techniques in mathematics to solve these challenging problems, and vice versa to learn and further extend methods developed in computer science to develop new directions in mathematics motivated by questions in computer science. The core topics of the trimester program would be: learning theory, complexity of classical and quantum algorithms, vector valued functions on the hypercube, complex Hypercontractivity, polynomial inequalities on the hypercube, and discrete approximation theory on the hamming cube.

Dagstuhl-Seminar — Algebraic and Analytic Methods in Computational Complexity
15 Sep 2024 - 20 Sep 2024 • Schloss Dagstuhl, Wadern, Germany
Organizer:
Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik
Abstract:
Computational Complexity is concerned with the resources that are required for algorithms to detect properties of combinatorial objects and structures. It has often proven true that the best way to argue about these combinatorial objects is by establishing a connection (perhaps approximate) to a more well-behaved algebraic setting. Indeed, many of the deepest and most powerful results in Computational Complexity rely on algebraic proof techniques.

Dagstuhl-Seminar — SAT and Interactions
13 Oct 2024 - 18 Oct 2024 • Schloss Dagstuhl, Wadern, Germany
Organizer:
Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik
Abstract:
The problem of deciding whether a propositional formula is satisfiable (SAT) is one of the most fundamental problems in computer science, both theoretically and practically. Due to its practical implications, intensive research has been performed on how to solve SAT problems in an automated fashion, and SAT solving is now a ubiquitous tool to solve many hard problems, both from industry and mathematics. SAT is also increasingly being applied in logics that are not decidable, particularly in the context of first-order theorem proving. Here, fast SAT solvers are used for reasoning sub-tasks and for guiding the theorem provers. The main aim of this Dagstuhl Seminar is to bring together researchers from different areas of activity on SAT and researchers that work in the field of first-order theorem proving so that they can communicate state-of-the-art advances and embark on a systematic interaction that will enhance the synergy between the different areas.
