# MFPS XL: Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics

## Call for papers

The 40th Conference on the Mathematical Foundations of Programming
Semantics (MFPS XL) takes place at the University of Oxford, UK, from
19-21 June 2024, where it will be colocated with the 7th International
Conference on Applied Category Theory (ACT 2024).

MFPS conferences are dedicated to the areas of mathematics, logic, and
computer science that are related to models of computation in general,
and to semantics of programming languages in particular. This is a forum
where researchers in computer science and mathematics can meet and
exchange ideas. The participation of researchers in neighbouring areas
is strongly encouraged.

Topics include, but are not limited to, the following: bio-computation;
concurrent qualitative and quantitative distributed systems; process
calculi; probabilistic systems; constructive mathematics; domain theory
and categorical models; formal languages; formal methods; game
semantics; lambda calculus; programming-language theory; quantum
computation; security; topological models; logic; type systems; type
theory. We also welcome contributions that address applications of
semantics to novel areas such as complex systems, markets, and networks,
for example.

## SUBMISSION

### Important dates:

* March 29: paper submission
* May 3: notification of authors
* June 3: conference papers ready
* June 19–21: conference

### Submissions

Submissions should be prepared using the [MFPS
macros](https://mfpsconf.org/?page_id=309<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/u9mOCL7Eg9fxmR5XUgoQ1O?domain=mfpsconf.org>) in the form of a PDF file.
[Submission is via
EasyChair](https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mfps2024<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/jE7iCMwGj8CKRqG9iGn0-f?domain=easychair.org>).

For the first time at MFPS, there are two submission categories:

* regular research contributions,

* early announcements.

Early announcements are a new feature at MFPS XL. They offer a forum for
the early presentation of new scientific contributions without the
accompanying technical justification that is expected in a regular
research contribution.

The page limit for both kinds of submission is 15 pages, excluding
bibliography and appendices. However, it is expected that early
announcements will typically be much shorter, taking only as many pages
as is required to present the announced contribution. Early
announcements will be refereed primarily on their potential
interest-value to the MFPS audience. Early announcements should be
identified by clearly labelling them with "Early Announcement" at the
start of the pdf document.

Early announcements will be given equal presentation time to regular
research contributions at the conference.

### Proceedings

A preliminary proceedings will be distributed at the meeting, containing
both regular research contributions and early announcements.

Final proceedings, containing regular research contributions only, will
be published in Electronic Notes in Theoretical Informatics and Computer
Science (ENTICS https://entics.episciences.org/<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/oU7rCNLJxkiKE019iV84Fx?domain=entics.episciences.org>). This open-access
series is hosted by Episciences.org as an overlay for papers published
by the CORR arXiv or HAL.

It is planned to publish a journal special issue for selected papers
from MFPS XL.
