11 - 12 December 2024, The 8th International Conference on Future Networks & Distributed Systems (ICFNDS 2024), Marrakech, Morocoo
In the last decade, the growth of the Internet and other web technologies have driven fast developments of various networking technologies that are be coming primary parts of our daily lives. The wealth of existing algorithms and architectures for parallel and distributed computing combined with the proliferation of future wireless technologies and electronic devices resulted in a fast-growing adoption of future networks and highly decentralized systems. Future networks and distributed systems research is an interdisciplinary research field involving academic researchers in computer science, communication engineering, physics and social and behavioral studies, as well as information technology industry consultants and practitioners to support multiservice, multimedia services convergence, service ubiquity and context awareness, mobility, fixed-mobile convergence, variable connectivity, quality of service, spontaneous and autonomic networking and other capabiliti es.
The 2024 International Conference on Future Networks and Distributed Systems (ICFNDS 2024) aims at addressing advances in research on distributed systems and future networks, covering topics ranging from enabling technologies to emerging applications and industrial experiences. ICFNDS aims to encourage both researchers and practitioners to exchange and share their experiences and recent studies in an interactive atmosphere.

11 - 13 June 2025, 17th NASA Formal Methods Symposium (NFM25), Hampton Roads, VA (USA)
The widespread use and increasing complexity of mission-critical and safety-critical systems at NASA and in the aerospace industry requires advanced technologies to address their specification, design, verification, validation, and certification. The NASA Formal Methods Symposium is a forum to foster collaboration between theoreticians and practitioners from NASA, other government agencies, academia, and industry, with the goal of identifying challenges and providing solutions towards achieving assurance for such critical systems. The focus of this symposium is on formal techniques for software and system assurance for applications in space, aviation, robotics, and other NASA-relevant critical systems.
Topics of Interest
* Advances in Formal Methods
* Integration of Formal Methods
* Formal Methods in Practice
There are two categories of submissions:
* Regular papers - Up to 15 pages plus references. Regular papers describe fully developed work and complete results.
* Short papers - Up to 6 pages plus references. Short papers describe either novel and publicly available tools, case studies detailing applications of formal methods, or new emerging ideas in the topics of interest.
All papers should be in English and describe original work that has not been published or submitted elsewhere. Authors should use LNCS style formatting. Authors of accepted papers must present their work in person at the conference.

13 December 2024, Annual VvL Seminar 2024
The Dutch Association for Logic (VvL) will hold an in-person joint seminar organized by Eindhoven University. The event is inspired by the departmental logic seminars that are organized at each university, and aims to unify the universities for a collaborative seminar. Besides hosting a main speaker, the seminar will also be the location of the award ceremony of the VvL MSc Thesis Prize winners, who will give a short presentation of their thesis. This year, we will also have a short VvL General Members Meeting, and an optional dinner will follow the event.
Main speaker: Alexandru Baltag (ILLC),
MSc Thesis Prize winners: Aude Corbeel (UvA), Sterre Lutz (UU), Ruben Mud (RUG) and Valentin Müller (UvA).
9 - 16 May 2025, XXI Brazilian Logic Conference (EBL 2025), Sao Paulo and Serra Negra, Brazil
The Brazilian Logic Conference (EBL) is the main event organized by the Brazilian Logic Society (SBL) and has been occurring since 1979. The EBL congregates logicians from different fields and the meeting is an important moment for the Brazilian and South-American community to come together and engage in a discussion about the state of the art of their subject. The areas of Logic covered span Foundations and Philosophy of Science, Mathematics, Computer Science, Informatics, Linguistics, and Artificial Intelligence. The goal of the EBL meeting is to encourage the dissemination and discussion of research papers in Logic in a broad sense. It is expected to have among the participants several invited speakers from different continents.
In 2025, the 21st edition of EBL will be held from May 12 to May 16 at the city of Serra Negra, São Paulo State, preceded by the Logic School from May 9 to May 11 at São Paulo City.
We cordially invite submissions of contributed talks, in the form of an extended abstract, on the general topics of Logic. Proposals for contributions are of three kinds, all of which may be prepared in English, Portuguese or Spanish:

(B) Poster
(C) Round tables and small workshops
The deadline for all types of submission is December 15, 2024.
