RP 2011: FINAL CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


FINAL CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: RP 2011

The 5th Edition of the Reachability Problems Workshop
September 28 - 30, 2011
Genova, Italy
webpage: http://rp11.disi.unige.it/

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The Reachability Workshop is specifically aimed at gathering together
scholars from diverse disciplines and backgrounds interested in
reachability problems
that appear in Algebraic structures, Computational models, Hybrid
systems, Logic,
and Verification.

Topics of interest include: Reachability problems in infinite state
systems, rewriting systems, dynamical and hybrid systems; reachability
problems in logic
and verification; reachability analysis in different computational
models, counter/ timed/ cellular/
communicating automata; Petri-Nets; computational aspects of algebraic
structures (semigroups, groups and
rings); frontiers between decidable and undecidable reachability
problems; predictability in
iterative maps and new computational paradigms.

Previous RP editions took place in Brno (Czech Republic, 2010),
Palaiseau (France, 2009), Liverpool (UK, 2008),
Turku (Finland, 2007).

The fifth edition will be held in Genova, a historic city in Liguria,
Italy.

ACCOMODATION and TRAVEL INFO

September is a very busy period in Genova (there are several other
conferences and events right before and after RP). We have an option for
a limited number of rooms in the hotels in the city center. Our
University can also offer (a limited number of) accomodations in Casa
Paganini (student residence) at very convenient prices.
Travel information and on-line registration/booking forms are available
under the RP webpage:
