How do I use this calendar?

You can click on an event to display further information about it.

The toolbar above the calendar has buttons to view different events. Use the left and right arrow icons to view events in the past and future. The button inbetween returns you to today's view. The button to the right of this shows a mini-calendar to let you quickly jump to any date.

The dropdown box on the right allows you to see a different view of the calendar, such as an agenda or a termly view.

If this calendar has tags, you can use the labelled checkboxes at the top of the page to select just the tags you wish to view, and then click "Show selected". The calendar will be redisplayed with just the events related to these tags, making it easier to find what you're looking for.

Title: Verifying Probabilistic Programs: Three Easy Pieces

Abstract: I will discuss some recent work on automated verification of probabilistic programs and randomised algorithms, using a simple procedural probabilistic programming language for which we have built an equivalence checker, called APEX. I will illustrate our approach with three non-trivial case studies: (i) Herman's self-stabilisation algorithm; (ii) an analysis of the average shape of binary search trees obtained by sequences of random insertions and deletions; and (iii) the problem of anonymity in the Dining Cryptographers protocol.

This is joint with Andrzej Murawski, James Worrell, and Axel Legay.
