CfP - Ada Developer Room at FOSDEM 2025, Brussels, Belgium
by Dirk.Craeynest＠cs.kuleuven.be 02 Nov '24

02 Nov '24

----------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Presentations 12th Ada Developer Room at FOSDEM 2025 Sunday 2 February 2025, Brussels, Belgium www.cs.kuleuven.be/~dirk/ada-belgium/events/25/250202-fosdem.html Organized in cooperation with Ada-Belgium and Ada-Europe #AdaFOSDEM #AdaDevRoom #AdaProgramming #FOSDEM2025 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The Ada FOSDEM community is pleased to announce the 12th edition of the Ada DevRoom! This edition will take place on Sunday morning 2nd of February in Belgium, at the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB). This edition of the Ada DevRoom is once more organized in cooperation with Ada-Belgium [1] and Ada-Europe [2]. *** General Information about FOSDEM FOSDEM [3], the Free and Open source Software Developers' European Meeting, is a free and non-commercial two-day weekend event organized early each year in Brussels, Belgium. It is highly developer-oriented and brings together 8000+ participants from all over the world. No registration nor payment is necessary. The goal is to provide open source developers and communities a place to meet with other developers and projects, to be informed about the latest developments in the open source world, to attend interesting talks and presentations on various topics by open source project leaders and committers, and to promote the development and the benefits of open source solutions. *** Ada Programming Language and Technology Ada is a general-purpose programming language originally designed for embedded and mission-critical software engineering, although nowadays it also supports object orientation, contracts and formal verification. It is used extensively in air traffic control, rail transportation, aerospace, nuclear, financial services, medical devices, etc. It is also perfectly suited for open source development with a fully open compiler (part of GCC), a formal verification system and a knowledgeable and vibrant community. Awareness of safety and security issues in software systems is increasing. The NSA recently published [4] a list of programming languages that are recommended for the development of new software due to their memory safety and Ada was one of the list (one of the three compiled non-garbage collected languages!). In that context, it should be no surprise that NVIDIA has started using Ada/SPARK [5, 6] for their highest critical parts in their GPUs! The forums [7] have also seen an uptick of new users since the NSA announcement. Multi-core platforms are now abundant and small, embedded devices are growing exponentially. These are some of the reasons that the Ada programming language and technology attracts more and more attention due to Ada.s support for programming by contract, performant and efficient code, high- and low-level abstractions and support for multi-core targets. The latest Ada language definition, Ada 2022, was approved by ISO as an international standard last year. Work on implementing the new features is ongoing, such as improved support for fine-grained parallelism, which were introduced in the new standard. The Ada-related technology, SPARK, provides a complete solution for the safety and security aspects stated above while being fully open source, making it stand out from other formal verification tools, as Ada/SPARK code is compiled directly into ready-to-run programs, which can even run on embedded systems. More and more tools are available, many are open source, including for small and modern platforms. Interest in Ada keeps increasing, also in the open source community, from which many exciting projects have been started. *** Ada Developer Room FOSDEM is an ideal fit for an Ada Developer Room. On the one hand, it gives the general open source community an opportunity to see what is happening in the Ada community and how Ada can help produce reliable and efficient open source software. On the other hand, it gives open source Ada projects an opportunity to present themselves, get feedback and ideas, and attract participants to their project and collaboration between projects. At previous FOSDEM events, the Ada-Belgium non-profit organization organized successful Ada Developer Rooms, offering a full day program in 2006 [8], a two-day program in 2009 [9], and full day programs in 2012-2016 [10-14], in 2018-2020 [15-17] and 2022 [18]. An important goal is to present exciting Ada technology and projects, including people outside the traditional Ada community. This edition is no different. *** Call for Presentations We would like to schedule technical presentations, tutorials, demos, live performances, project status reports, discussions, etc, in the Ada Developer Room. Do you have a talk you want to give? Do you have a project you would like to present? Would you like to get more people involved with your project? Would you like to share some knowledge and lessons about Ada? The Ada DevRoom organizers call on you to: - discuss and help organize the details, subscribe to the Ada-FOSDEM mailing list [19]; - for bonus points, be a speaker: the Ada-FOSDEM mailing list is the place to be! - don't hesitate to propose a topic that you would like to present to the community, we are eager to know what you have in store for us! We're inviting proposals that are related to Ada software development, and include a technical oriented discussion. You're not limited to slide presentations, of course. Be creative. Propose something fun to share with people so they might feel some of your enthusiasm for Ada! Speaking slots should be around 20 or 50 minutes, plus 5 or 10 minutes for Q&A. However, this schedule is flexible and we will adapt it to other formats. For example, a short technical talk can be transformed into a 10 minutes talk, plus time for Q&A. Depending on interest, we might also have a session with lightning presentations (e.g. 5 minutes each), and/or an informal discussion session. Note that all talks will be streamed live and recorded (audio+video). By submitting a proposal, you agree to being recorded and streamed. You also agree that the contents of your talk will be published under the same license as all FOSDEM content, a Creative Commons (CC-BY) license. *** Submission Guidelines Your proposal must be submitted to the FOSDEM Pretalx system [20]. If you already had an account from previous years, reuse it; if not, create a new account. If, for whatever reason, you cannot use Pretalx, you can also submit your proposal by messaging the Ada-FOSDEM mailing list [15]. If needed, feel free to contact us at the Ada-FOSDEM Mailing list or at <irvise (at) irvise.xyz> (without spaces). Please, fill the information asked by the Pretalx system, which includes: - your name, affiliation, contact info; - the title of your talk (be descriptive and creative); - a short descriptive and attractive abstract; - preferred duration of your talk; - pointers to more information if applicable; - a short bio and photo. See programs of previous Ada DevRooms (URLs below) for presentation examples, as well as for the kind of info we need. Here is the slightly flexible schedule that we will follow: - November 30, 2024: end of the submission period. Remember, we only need the information in the list above. You do not have to submit the entire talk by this date. Try to submit your proposal as early as possible. It is better to submit half of the details early than be late, so do not wait for the last minute. - December 15, 2024: announcement of accepted talks. - January 15, 2025: your slides should be uploaded to the Pretalx platform. - February 2, 2025: Ada-DevRoom day! We look forward to lots of feedback and proposals!

Simultaneous submission to other conferences with published proceedings or to journals is not allowed. At least one author of each accepted paper will have to register for the conference. For authors who cannot present their paper in person for a significant reason, the possibility of remote presentation may be offered. *Double-Blind Reviewing* CIAC 2025 will implement a lightweight double-blind reviewing process. Submissions should not reveal the identity of the authors in any way; in particular, authors’ names, affiliations, and email addresses should not appear at the beginning or in the body of the submission. The purpose of the double-blind reviewing is to help PC members and external reviewers come to an initial judgement about the paper without bias, not to make it impossible for them to discover the authors if they were to try. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission or makes the job of reviewing the paper more difficult. Authors should feel free to disseminate their ideas or draft versions of their paper as they normally would (e.g., making early drafts available on their webpage, or through pre-print dissemination websites such as arXiv). When submitting a paper, please indicate Conflict of Interest (CoI) with PC members. *PC Submissions* Submissions authored or co-authored by (non-chair) members of the program committee are allowed. *Proceedings* Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of the symposium. As in previous editions, the proceedings will appear in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series of Springer. Authors of accepted papers will have to sign a copyright form with the submission of the camera-ready version of their accepted paper. *Best Paper Awards* There will be a Best Student Paper Award as well as a Best Paper Award, both sponsored by Springer. In order for a paper to be considered for the Best Student Paper Award, all of its authors are required to be students at the time of submission *Program Committee* -Davide Bilo, University of L’Aquila -Keerti Choudhary, IIT Delhi -Paloma Thome de Lima, IT University of Copenhagen -Adrian Dumitrescu, AlgOrEsEArch -Thomas Erlebach, Durham University -Bruno Escoffier, Sorbonne Universite -Venkata Gandikota, Syracuse University -Loukas Georgiadis, University of Ioannina (chair) -Archontia Giannopoulou, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens -Petr Golovach, University of Bergen -Kristoffer Arnsfelt Hansen, Aarhus University -Shunsuke Inenaga, Kyushu University -Evangelos Kipouridis, Max-Planck-Institut fur Informatik -Jakub Lacki, Google Research -Alexandra Lassota, Eindhoven University of Technology -Wolfgang Mulzer, Freie Universitat Berlin -Yuto Nakashima, Kyushu University -Charis Papadopoulos, University of Ioannina -Anastasios Sidiropoulos, University of Illinois at Chicago -Kostas Tsichlas, University of Patras -Nithin Varma, Max-Planck-Institut fur Informatik -Tony Wirth, University of Sydney -Alexander Wolff, Universitat Wurzburg *Organisation Chair* -Irene Finocchi (Luiss Univ., Italy) *Organising Committee* -Miro Confalone (Luiss Univ., Italy) -Emilio Coppa (Luiss Univ., Italy) -Alessio Martino (Luiss Univ., Italy) -Giacomo Paesani (Sapienza Univ. of Rome, Italy) -Cosimo Poccianti (Luiss Univ., Italy) -Fariba Ranjbar (Luiss Univ., Italy) -Blerina Sinaimeri (Luiss Univ., Italy) *Steering Committee* -Tiziana Calamoneri (Sapienza Univ. of Rome, Italy) -Giuseppe Francesco Italiano (Luiss Univ., Italy) -Pinar Heggernes (Univ. of Bergen, Norway) -Marios Mavronicolas (Cyprus Univ., Greece) *Contact Information* All questions about submissions should be emailed to Loukas Georgiadis at loukas(a)uoi.gr ________________________________________ Alessio Martino, PhD Assistant Professor of Computer Science LUISS Guido Carli University Department of Business and Management Viale Romania 32, 00197 Rome, Italy<https://www.google.com/maps/place/Viale+Romania,+32,+00197+Roma+RM/@41.9250…> (Room 508) Phone: (+39) 06-85225957 E-mail: amartino(a)luiss.it<mailto:amartino@luiss.it> La presente e-mail proviene da Luiss Guido Carli e s'intende inviata per scopi lavorativi.

The conference schedule comprises a journal track, an industrial track, a work-in-progress track, a vendor exhibition, parallel tutorials, and satellite workshops. - Journal track papers present research advances supported by solid theoretical foundation and thorough evaluation. - Industrial track contributions highlight the practitioners' side of a challenging case study or industrial project. - Work-in-progress track papers illustrate novel research ideas still at an initial stage, between conception and first prototype. - Tutorials guide attenders through a hands-on familiarization with innovative developments or with useful features related to reliable software. - Workshops provide discussion forums on themes related to the conference topics. *** Schedule 20 January 2025: Deadline for submission of journal track papers 24 February 2025: Deadline for submission of industrial track papers, work-in-progress papers, and tutorial and workshop proposals 28 March 2025: First round notification for journal track papers, and notification of acceptance for all other types of submissions 10-13 June 2025: Conference *** Scope and Topics The conference is a leading international forum for providers, practitioners, and researchers in reliable software technologies. The conference presentations will illustrate current work in the theory and practice of the design, development, and maintenance of long-lived, high-quality software systems for a challenging variety of application domains. The program will allow ample time for keynotes, Q&A sessions, discussions, and social events. Participants include practitioners and researchers from industry, academia, and government organizations active in the promotion and development of reliable software technologies. The topics of interest for the conference include but are not limited to (more specific topics are described on the conference web page): - Formal and Model-Based Engineering of Critical Systems; - High-Integrity Systems and Reliability; - AI for High-Integrity Systems Engineering; - Real-Time Systems; - Ada Language; - Applications in relevant domains. More specific topics are described on the conference web page, at www.ada-europe.org/conference2025. *** Call for Journal Track Submissions Following a journal-first model, this edition of the conference includes a journal track, which seeks original and high-quality papers that describe mature research work on the conference topics. Accepted journal track papers will be published in a Special Issue of Elsevier JSA - the Journal of Systems Architecture (Q1 ranked, CiteScore 8.5, impact factor 3.7). Contributions must be submitted by 20 January 2025. JSA has adopted the Virtual Special Issue model to speed up the publication process, where Special Issue (SI) papers are published in regular issues, but marked as SI papers. Acceptance decisions are made on a rolling basis. Therefore, authors are encouraged to submit papers early, and need not wait until the submission deadline. Authors who have successfully passed the first round of review will be invited to present their work at the conference. The abstract of the accepted contributions will be included in the conference booklet. Ada-Europe will waive the Open Access fees for the first four accepted papers (whose authors do not already enjoy Open Access agreements). Subsequent papers will follow JSA regular publishing track. Prospective authors may direct all enquiries regarding this track to the corresponding chairs, Laurent Pautet and Sara Royuela. *** Call for Industrial Track Submissions The conference seeks industrial-practitioner presentations that deliver insight on the challenges of developing reliable software. Especially welcome kinds of submissions are listed on the conference web site. Given their applied nature, such contributions will be subject to a dedicated practitioner peer-review process. Interested authors shall submit a one-to-two pages abstract, by 24 February 2025. The abstracts of the accepted contributions will be included in the conference booklet. The corresponding authors will get a presentation slot in the prime-time technical program of the conference and will also be invited to expand their contributions into full-fledged articles for publication in the Ada User Journal, which will form the proceedings of the industrial track of the Conference. Prospective authors may direct all enquiries regarding this track to its chairs, Daniela Cancila and Laurent Gouzenes. *** Call for Work-in-progress Track Submissions The work-in-progress (WiP) track seeks two kinds of submissions: (a) ongoing research and (b) early-stage ideas. Ongoing research submissions are 4-page papers describing research results that are not mature enough to be submitted to the journal track. Early-stage ideas are 1-page papers that pitch new research directions that fall within the scope of the conference. Both kinds of submissions must be original and shall undergo anonymous peer review. Submissions by recent MSc graduates and PhD students are especially sought. Authors shall submit their work by 24 February 2025. The abstract of the accepted contributions will be included in the conference booklet. The corresponding authors will get a presentation slot in the prime-time technical program of the conference and will also be offered the opportunity to expand their contributions into 4-page articles for publication in the Ada User Journal, which will form the proceedings of the WiP track of the conference. Prospective authors may direct all enquiries regarding this track to the corresponding chairs, Hai Nam Tran and Anish Bhobe. *** Award The Ada-Europe organization will offer an honorary award for the best technical presentation, to be announced in the closing session of the conference. *** Call for Tutorials The conference seeks tutorials in the form of educational seminars on themes falling within the conference scope, with an academic-for-practitioner slant, including hands-on or practical elements. Tutorial proposals shall include a title, an abstract, a description of the topic, an outline of the presentation, the proposed duration (half-day or full-day), the intended level of the contents (introductory, intermediate, or advanced), and a statement motivating attendance. Tutorial proposals shall be submitted at any time but no later than 24 February 2025 to the respective chair, Robert Cholay. The authors of accepted full-day tutorials will receive a complimentary conference registration, halved for half-day tutorials.
