This workshop will bring together practioners and researchers who are 
concerned with the development and application of automated reasoning for 
mathematics. The workshop will discuss only "really running" systems and 
applications, and not theoretical ideas that have not yet been translated 
into working software. More details are on the WWW page.

Submission of papers for presentation at the workshop, and proposals for 
system and application demonstrations at the workshop, are now invited. 
Submissions will be refereed, and a balanced program of high-quality 
contributions will be selected. The selected contributions will be printed 
as workshop proceedings, and will also be published electronically. The 
submission deadline is 5th May, notification of acceptance is on 13th June, 
and final versions are due 7th July. Submission details are on the WWW page.

We hope that you will submit a paper, and be part of ESARM.

Graph-Based Tools Contest: Call for Cases

Graph-Based Tools Contest: Call for Cases
=========================================
12-13 September, Leicester, UK
Satellite workshop of ICGT 2008
http://www.fots.ua.ac.be/events/grabats2008/

Tools are crucial for the promotion of graph transformation in industry. Currently, a variety of tool
environments exist for different graph transformation approaches. However, for potential users,
working in application domains where graph transformation may be a useful technique, it is difficult to
select the right tool for their purpose. Moreover, even the experience of many existing users does not
extend beyond a few of the available tools. Finally, and maybe most importantly, the tool developers
themselves can also be inspired by a more detailed understanding of related approaches.

The aim of this event is to compare the expressiveness, the usability and the performance of graph
transformation tools along a number of selected case studies. This will enable us to learn about the pros
and cons of each tool
considering different applications. A deeper understanding of the relative merits of different tool
features will help to further improve graph transformation tools and to indicate open problems.

The event is the second of its kind: the first graph-based tool contest took place as part of the AGTIVE 2007
workshop in Kassel, Germany.

Phase 1: Case proposal submission
---------------------------------

In order to facilitate the comparison of graph transformation tools, we are solliciting potential case
studies. Submissions for case study proposals are requested. If you have a suitable case study, please
describe it shortly but as detailed as needed and send it to Pieter Van Gorp (pieter <at> pietervangorp.com)
and to Arend Rensink (rensink <at> cs.utwente.nl) by *May 20, 2008* This includes cases that have already
been carried out using a given tool. A committee will select a small, but representative set of case
studies to be used for the contest.

Please submit at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=grabats2008

Phase 2: Case solution submission
---------------------------------

All those who like to participate in the contest are asked to choose one or more case studies, take their
favourite graph transformation tool and submit their solutions. Each submission should cover the
following issues: a short presentation of the chosen graph transformation tool, a description of the
chosen case study variant if any, a presentation of the chosen solution, including a discussion of design
decisions. More detailed instructions will be given in the case descriptions themselves.

Solutions are to be submitted by July 1, 2008. Depending on the number of submissions, a selection will be
made of solutions to be presented; the other submissions will get a chance for a (non-plenary) tool demo at
the end of the workshop. In addition, it is planned to have a special journal issue where submitters have a
chance to improve and write up their solutions.

Please submit at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=grabats2008

Phase 3: Workshop and live contest
----------------------------------

Besides the presentation and discussion of the solutions, the workshop will include for the first time a
live contest session. During this session, which will take place the afternoon of Friday, September 12,
participants will be handed out a case description which they will be asked to solve within the time
available on Friday. Solutions will be compared and presented on Saturday, September 13, together with
the submitted solutions to the published case studies. In this way we want to compare the usability of the
tools for rapid development.

Important dates:
----------------
May 20, 2008:   Deadline for case study proposals
June 1, 2008:   Selected case studies published
July 1, 2008:   Deadline for solutions
August 1, 2008: Acceptance notice for solutions
