[DMANET] Call for Presentations: Reachability Problems RP2018 - Deadline: 7th August 2018

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 12th International Conference on Reachability Problems (RP'18)
24 - 26 September 2018 | Aix-Marseille University, FR | https://rp2018.lis-lab.fr/

Presentation-Only Track deadline: 7th of August 2018
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The 12th International Conference on Reachability Problems will be hosted at
Aix-Marseille University, organised by the Laboratory of Computer and System Sciences.

The Reachability Problems Conference is specifically aimed at gathering together
scholars from diverse disciplines interested in reachability problems that
appear in algebraic structures, computational models, hybrid systems, logic
and verification.

* * *
* * * In addition to regular papers that will appear in our LNCS proceedings,
* * * we invite researchers to apply to give a presentation at RP'18 without an
* * * accompanying paper. Such presentations can be based on work that has appeared
* * * (or which is going to appear) in the proceedings of another conference, or which
* * * has not yet been submitted. These contributions will be judged solely on the
* * * basis of their attractiveness to the conference. Deadline: 7th of August 2018
* * * https://rp2018.lis-lab.fr/
* * * Please submit a pdf file containing your title, abstract and short paper
* * * (upto 4 pages in LNCS format) by e-mail [rp18@easychair.org] with a subject
* * * "RP2018 Informal Presentation".
* * *

Submissions for Presentation-Only Papers

* Abstracts: 7 August 2018
* Notification: 14 August 2018

Please submit a pdf file containing your title, abstract and short paper (upto 4 pages in LNCS format)
by e-mail [rp18@easychair.org] with a subject "RP2018 Informal Presentation".

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): 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.

We plan also to publish selected works from RP2018 in a special issue of
Fundamenta Informaticae following the regular referee procedure.
