Workshop on Counting and Sampling 2022

Purpose

The International Workshop on Counting and Sampling aims to provide a venue for researchers working on model counting such as model counting (mc), weighted model counting/sum of products (wmc), projected model counting (pmc) as well as sampling models within the realm but not restricting to Boolean satisfiability (SAT), satisfiability modulo theories (SMT), Answer set programming (ASP), and constraint programming (CP). It encourages to meet, communicate, and discuss the latest theoretical and practical results, in particular results on novel solvers, related solver technologies, new theoretical advances, practical academic and industrial applications as well as the linking theory and practice. The workshop is also the place for developers of model counters to present their solvers and the presentation of detailed results on the model counting competition.

Venue

We refer to the SAT 2022 Website and FLoC 2022 Website.

Registration

Please, register on the FLoC 2022 Webpage.

Program

The workshop will take place on August 11, 2022. See Detailed Program of the Workshop

Timeline

  • May 1, 2022: Submission Deadline
  • June 1, 2022: Notification of Acceptance
  • August 11, 2022: Workshop

Format

You present your best work related to counting and sampling, be it published elsewhere or yet unpublished.

Agenda / Talks

  • 20min (Talk) + 10min (Q&A)
  • 5min break

Submissions

Submission: We place no format requirement. We expect that you provide a reasonable description in txt or pdf-format and upload this on Easychair.

Procedures for selecting papers: All submissions will be reviewed by 1-2 program committee members and papers will be selected based on their recommendations.

Plans for dissemination: There will be no proceedings, we will make the abstract and slides video publicly available at the website. If authors additionally pre-record a video, it will be distributed among the participants.

Out of Scope

Papers claiming to resolve a major long-standing open theoretical question in Mathematics or Computer Science are outside the scope of the workshop.
