                       CONCUR 2013 - Call for Papers

             24th International Conference on Concurrency Theory

                August 27 - 30, 2013, Buenos Aires Argentina

                  http://concur-conferences.org/concur2013

============================================================================

The purpose of the CONCUR conferences is to bring together researchers,
developers, and students in order to advance the theory of concurrency,
and promote its applications.

                      ================================
                              INVITED SPEAKERS
                      ================================


- Lorenzo Alvisi (University of Texas Austin, USA)
- Joost-Pieter Katoen (RWTH Aachen University, Germany)
- Philippe Schnoebelen (LSV, CNRS & ENS de Cachan, France)
- Reinhard Wilhelm (Saarland University, Germany)

                      ================================
                                   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 and Petri nets;

- Logics for concurrency such as modal logics, probabilistic and
  stochastic logics, temporal logics, and resource logics;

- Models of specialized systems such as biology-inspired systems,
  circuits, hybrid systems, mobile and collaborative systems,
  multi-core processors, probabilistic systems, real-time systems,
  service-oriented computing, and synchronous systems;

- 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, and type systems;

- Related programming models such as distributed, component-based,
  object-oriented, and web services.


                      ================================
                             CO-LOCATED EVENTS
                      ================================

10th Intl. Conference on Quantitative Evaluation of SysTems (QEST 2013)
11th Intl. Conf. on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems (FORMATS 2013)
8th Intl. Symposium on Trustworthy Global Computing (TGC 2013)

                      ================================
                              PAPER SUBMISSION
                      ================================

CONCUR 2013 solicits high quality papers reporting research results
and/or experience reports related to the topics mentioned above. All
papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted for publication
elsewhere.  Contributions should be submitted electronically as PDF,
using the Springer LNCS style. Papers should not exceed 15 pages in
length.

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.

Papers should be submitted electronically using EasyChair online
submission system: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=concur2013

The CONCUR 2013 proceedings will be published by Springer in the
ArCoSS subseries of LNCS.  The proceedings will be available at
the conference.
