Call for Papers

4th Workshop on Reversible Computation
(RC 2012)

July 2nd-3rd, 2012, Copenhagen, Denmark
Abstract Submission: March 2nd, 2012
Submission Deadline: March 9th, 2012

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

Reversible computation has a growing number of promising application
areas such as low power design, coding/decoding, program debugging,
testing, database recovery, discrete event simulation, reversible
algorithms, reversible specification formalisms, reversible
programming languages, process algebras, and the modeling of
biochemical systems. Furthermore, reversible logic provides a basis
for quantum computation with its applications, for example, in
cryptography and in the development of highly efficient algorithms.
First reversible circuits and quantum circuits have been implemented
recently and are seen as promising alternatives to conventional CMOS
technology.

The workshop will bring together researchers from computer science,
mathematics, and physics to discuss new developments and directions
for future research in Reversible Computation. This particularly
includes applications of reversibility in quantum computation.
Research papers, tutorials, tool demonstrations, and work-in-progress
reports are within the scope of the workshop. Contributions on the
following topics in Reversible Computation are welcome:

* Applications
* Architectures
* Algorithms
* Circuit Design
* Debugging
* Fault Tolerance and Error Correction
* Hardware
* Information Theory
* Physical Realizations
* Programming Languages
* Quantum Computation
* Software
* Synthesis
* Theoretical Results
* Testing
* Verification
