================================================== ReacTS'25 International Workshop on Reconfigurable Transition Systems: Semantics, Logics and Applications ================================================== 1st Call for Papers https://reacts-workshop.github.io/2025/ Tuesday, 10-11 November 2025, Toledo, Spain Satellite event of SEFM 2025 (https://sefm-conference.github.io/sefm2025) ================================================== OVERVIEW ================================================== Reconfigurable Transition Systems (RTS) are dynamic relational structures (graphs) that evolve along its execution, in the sense that their accessibility relation, their set of nodes or their labelling change when their edges are crossed. These structures have proven to be suitable to compactly represent complex reactive and reconfigurable behaviours. Namely, the ability of reacting or readapting under the influence of certain events is a very distinctive feature of many diverse situations and objects. An autonomous vehicle that changes its route due to a new strike occurring, the behaviour of a software component after a memory disposal, or a DNA mutation as the result of a viral infection, are different examples that witness the importance of modelling about changes in a determined situation. Practical user cases have aroused the interest of the logic community in the study of variants of RTS, by developing formal methods to properly reason about such situations. This workshop aims to bring together the whole community of researchers working on different ways to model reconfigurable and reactive systems from a formal perspective. This includes theoretical approaches (like hybrid logics, reactive frames, model-update logics, and topological and algebraic semantics), or formalisms designed for specific purposes (like separation logic in software verification, dynamic epistemic logic in AI planning, and others). Also, our goal is to devise novel approaches and potential applications, and share a common perspective on the discipline. ================================================== SUBMISSION GUIDELINES ================================================== Authors are invited to submit, via CMT, research contributions or experience reports (https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/reacts2025). All papers should be written in English and prepared using the specific LNCS templates available at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. There are two categories of submissions: - FULL PAPERS up to 12 pages (excluding references) – to present original research and the analysis, interpretation and validation of the research findings. - SHORT PRESENTATIONS up to 4 pages (excluding references) – to present work in progress and preliminary results. Both kinds of submissions allow system descriptions, to present a new tool, a new tool component or novel extensions to an existing tool aiming at supporting open community approaches, or the use/customisation of an existing tool in the context of RTS. Accepted full papers will be included in the workshop programme and will appear in the workshop LNCS proceedings. Accepted short presentations will be included in the pre-proceeding (available online before the Workshop) but not published in the LNCS proceedings. ================================================== LIST OF TOPICS ================================================== The scope of the workshop includes (but it is not limited to): - Reconfigurable transitions systems (RTS) * Models for the analysis of reconfigurable systems * Applications of formal models for reconfigurable systems * Computational tools to animate and analyze RTS * Generalizations of RTS - Fuzzy RTS, Paraconsistent RTS, Weighted RTS, - Stochastic RTS, etc. * Featured Transition Systems * Reconfigurable Cyber Physical Systems - Logical Methods * Dynamic Logics, Separation Logics, Dynamic Epistemic Logics for RTS * Bisimulations and general algebraic constructions * Model Checking and Tools * Reactive systems and Process Algebra * Logics for Cyber Physical Systems * Topological an Algebraic Semantics * Applications of AI for RTS ================================================== PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS ================================================== - José Proença, University of Porto (Portugal) - Umberto Rivieccio, Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (Spain) ================================================== PROGRAM COMMITTEE ================================================== - Luis Soares Barbosa, Universidade Do Minho (Portugal) - Benjamin Bedregal, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (Brazil) - Mario Benevides, Universidade Federal Fluminense (Brazil) - Patrick Blackburn, University of Roskilde (Denmark) - Valentin Cassano, Universidad Nacional de Río Cuarto and CONICET (Argentina) - Madalena Chaves, Centre Inria d'Université Côte d'Azur (France) - Gabriel Ciobanu, Institute of Computer Science, Romanian Academy (Romania) - Raul Fervari, Universidad Nacional de Córdoba and CONICET (Argentina) - Daniel Figueiredo, University of Aveiro (Portugal) - Sabine Frittella, Université d'Orleans (France) - Sujata Gosh, Indian Statistical Institute, Chennai (India) - Andreas Herzig, CNRS, Université Paul Sabatier (France) - Juha Kontinen, University of Helsinki (Finland) - Alexandre Madeira, University of Aveiro (Portugal) - Sergio Marcelino, IT & Dep.
