Paper Submission: April 21 (firm deadline)
Paper Notification: June 16
Camera Ready Copy Due: July 7
CONCUR 2017: September 5-8
TOPICS
Submissions are solicited in semantics, logics, verification and analysis
of concurrent systems. The principal topics include (but are not limited
to):
- Basic models of concurrency such as abstract machines,
domain-theoretic models,
game-theoretic models, process algebras, graph transformation
systems, Petri nets,
hybrid systems, mobile and collaborative systems, probabilistic systems,
real-time systems, biology-inspired systems, and synchronous systems;
- Logics for concurrency such as modal logics, probabilistic and
stochastic logics,
temporal logics, and resource logics;
- Verification and analysis techniques for concurrent systems such as
abstract interpretation, atomicity checking, model checking, race
detection, pre-order and equivalence checking, run-time verification,
state-space exploration, static analysis, synthesis, testing, theorem
proving, type systems, and security analysis;
- Distributed algorithms and data structures: design, analysis, complexity,
correctness, fault tolerance, reliability, availability, consistency,
self-organization, self-stabilization, protocols.
- Theoretical foundations of architectures, execution environments, and
software
development for concurrent systems such as geo-replicated systems,
communication
networks, multiprocessor and multi-core architectures, shared and
transactional memory,
resource management and awareness, compilers and tools for concurrent
programming,
programming models such as component-based, object- and service-oriented.
PAPER SUBMISSION
CONCUR 2017 solicits high quality papers reporting research results
and/or experience related to the topics mentioned above. All
papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted for
publication elsewhere.
Each paper will undergo a thorough review process. If necessary, the
paper may be supplemented with a clearly marked appendix, which will
be reviewed at the discretion of the program committee.
The CONCUR 2017 proceedings will be published by LIPIcs.
Papers must be submitted electronically as PDF files via EasyChair
(https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=concur2017).
Papers must not exceed 14 pages (excluding references and clearly marked
appendices) using the LIPIcs style.

Combined 24th International Workshop on Expressiveness in Concurrency
and 14th Workshop on Structural Operational Semantics
*EXPRESS/SOS 2017*
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
September 04, 2017, Berlin (Germany)
Affiliated with CONCUR 2017
https://www.concur2017.tu-berlin.de/express_sos.html
Submission of papers: Friday *June 23*, 2017
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCOPE AND TOPICS:
The EXPRESS workshop series aims at bringing together researchers
interested in the expressiveness of various formal systems and
semantic notions, particularly in the field of concurrency. The SOS
workshop series aims at being a forum for researchers, students and
practitioners interested in new developments, and directions for
future investigation, in the field of structural operational
semantics.
Since 2012, the EXPRESS and SOS communities have joined forces and
organised a combined EXPRESS/SOS workshop on the formal semantics
of systems and programming concepts, and on the expressiveness of
mathematical models of computation.
Topics of interest for this workshop include (but are not limited to):
* expressiveness and comparison of models of computation (process
algebras, event structures, Petri nets, rewrite systems)
* expressiveness and comparison of programming models (distributed,
component-based, object-oriented, service-oriented);
* logics for concurrency (modal logics, probabilistic and stochastic
logics, temporal logics and resource logics);
* analysis techniques for concurrent systems;
* theory of structural operational semantics (meta-theory,
category-theoretic approaches, congruence results);
* comparison of structural operational semantics to other formal
semantics approaches
* applications and case studies of structural operational semantics;
* software tools that automate, or are based on, structural
operational semantics.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:
We solicit two types of submissions:
* Full papers (up to 15 pages).
* Short papers (up to 5 pages, not included in the workshop proceedings)
Simultaneous submission to journals, conferences or other workshops is
only allowed for short papers; full papers must be unpublished.
All submissions should adhere to the EPTCS format (http://www.eptcs.org),
and submission is performed through the EXPRESS/SOS 2017 EasyChair
server (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=expresssos2017).
The final versions of accepted full papers will be published in EPTCS.
