We are delighted to welcome Jaco van de Pol, Professor of Computer Science in Aarhus University, with a talk entitled "Explainable Verification of Safety and Security of Software Systems". Verification of safety-critical (software) systems is essential, but requires automation to be applied full scale. The first half of the presentation will mention contributions that pushed the scalability of verification, in particular symbolic and parallel…

Thus argumentation means that arguments are compared, evaluated in some respect and judged in order to establish whether any of them are warranted. The field of artificial argumentation is emerging as an…

His presentation will be in English and is entitled "Playing puzzles on complicated surfaces". Abstract: This talk will be about a project aiming to illustrate geometry through puzzles. The puzzles, played following simple rules on square-tiled surfaces, have natural configuration graphs with a geometry of their own. These graphs are not…
