developers, and students in order to advance the theory of concurrency,
and promote its applications.

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papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted for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.
