TUTORIAL PROPOSAL FORM

This form is due May 10th, 2019.
NAME OF THE TUTORIAL:
Programming Language Foundations in Agda
PRESENTER(S):
(Please complete the following table for each presenter.)
Name : Philip Wadler
Address : LFCS, School of Informatics, University of Edinbugh
Email : wadler@inf.ed.ac.uk
Phone : +44 131 650 5174 (after 21 July)
Mobile : +55 71 99652 2018 (before 13 July)
+44 7976 507 543 (after 14 July)
ABSTRACT:
This course is in two parts, each three hours long. Part I is an
introduction to formal methods in Agda, covering datatypes,
recursion, structural induction, indexed datatypes, dependent
functions, and induction over evidence; with focus on formal
definitions of naturals, addition, and inequality, and their
properties. Part II is an introduction to formal models of
simply-typed lambda calculus in Agda, including reduction, type
rules, and progress and preservation, and (as a consequence)
evaluation of lambda terms. Part II depends on Part I, but Part I
can be skipped by those already familiar with Agda.
The textbook is freely available online:
Programming Language Foundations in Agda

The books has been used for teaching by me at:
University of Edinburgh (Sep-Dec 2018)
Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio) (Mar-Jul 2019)
University of Padova (Jun 2019)
and by others at
University of Vermont
Google Seattle.
The book is described in a paper (of the same title) at the XXI
Brazilian Symposium on Formal Methods, 28--30 Nov 2018, which is
available here:
http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/wadler/topics/agda.html#sbmf
The paper won the SBMF 2018 Best Paper Award, 1st Place.
REQUIRED PARTICIPANT BACKGROUND:
(What background knowledge and skills will be assumed? Is the
tutorial primarily intended for industrial users of functional
programming, researchers in functional programming, or some other
audience?)
No prerequisites required. Any or all of the following will be
helpful:
* Familiarity with functional programming, particularly
data types, recursion, and pattern matching.
* Familiarity with proof by induction.
* Familiarity with a proof assistant.
* Familiarity with Emacs.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
(What will participants be able to do after the tutorial?)
Part I: Formulate and prove in Agda properties of
operations of naturals (such as addition and multiplication), and
relations on naturals (such as inequality), using structural
induction and induction over evidence of a relation.
Part II: Formulate and prove in Agda formal models of simply-typed
lambda calculus in Agda, including reduction, type rules, and
progress and preservation, and (as a consequence) evaluation of
lambda terms.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
(Does the tutorial need Internet access for the presenter? For the
participants?)
If the participants follow the instructions under 'Participant
Preparation' in advance, then no internet access is required.
SCHEDULING CONSTRAINTS:
(Are there any days on which you cannot hold the tutorial?)
None
PARTICIPANT PREPARATION:
(What preparation is required? Do participants need to bring
laptops? If so, do they need to have any particular software?)
Clone the repository at
https://github.com/plfa/plfa.github.io/
This is the textbook for the course.
Install Agda, the Agda standard library, and configure the
plfa library. This can be done by following the instructions
under the heading
Getting Started with PLFA
at
https://plfa.github.io/GettingStarted/
PLANS FOR PUBLICITY:
(Including, but not limited to, web pages, mailing lists, and
newsgroups.)
I will advertise on my home page and blog, and on the home page for
the textbook, and mail to Types and other standard lists.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
(If there is any additional information that you would like
to make us aware of, please include the details here.
For example, you may wish to indicate a preference for particular
dates, or that the tutorial should not be run in parallel with
certain workshops; in such cases, please also include the
reasons for your preference.)
None.
