CONCUR 2026: 1st Call for Papers

When: 1 – 4 September, 2026
Where: Liverpool, UK
Web: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://confest-2026.github.io/concur__;!!IBzWLUs!V4ROYb9JFLf2EDnDxOYQkTD7883C1pjoSDJEYjShu6XKGqVZ8Uyy2_tovvWpV2-_ve_JcMGr53YfsSjGBa9eqxP3XOvgXARhRY6CaFPs$ 

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

The International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR) brings
together researchers, developers, and students in order to advance the
theory of concurrency and promote its applications. CONCUR solicits high
quality papers reporting research results and/or experience related to
semantics, logics, verification and analysis of concurrent systems.

The 2026 edition will be co-located with QEST+FORMATS, FMICS and a
number of workshops under the joint name CONFEST 2026, which will take
place September 1-5, 2026 at the University of Liverpool, UK.

Topics

Submissions are solicited in the theory and practice of concurrent
systems. The principal topics include (but are not limited to):

-   Basic models of concurrency such as abstract machines,
    domain-theoretic models, categorical and coalgebraic models,
    game-theoretic models, parametric models, process algebras, graph
    transformation systems, Petri nets, hybrid systems, mobile and
    collaborative systems, probabilistic systems, real-time systems,
    quantum systems, biology-inspired systems, and synchronous systems;

-   Logics for concurrency such as modal logics, program logics,
    probabilistic and stochastic logics, temporal logics, multi-agent
    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/parallel algorithms and concurrent data structures:
    design, analysis, complexity, correctness, fault tolerance,
    reliability, availability, consistency, self-organization,
    self-stabilization, commitment schemes, communication protocols;

-   Theoretical foundations, tools, and empirical evaluations of
    architectures, execution environments, and software development for
    concurrent systems such as geo-replicated systems, distributed
    ledgers, communication networks, multiprocessor and multi-core
    architectures, quantum computing, quantum communication, 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

-   All papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted for
    publication elsewhere.
-   Each paper will undergo a thorough review process.
-   Papers must be submitted electronically as PDF files via EasyChair
    (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://easychair.org/conferences?conf=concur2026__;!!IBzWLUs!V4ROYb9JFLf2EDnDxOYQkTD7883C1pjoSDJEYjShu6XKGqVZ8Uyy2_tovvWpV2-_ve_JcMGr53YfsSjGBa9eqxP3XOvgXARhRST2VEbT$ ).
-   Proceedings will be published by LIPIcs, please use their style
    files (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://drops.dagstuhl.de/entities/series/LIPIcs*author__;Iw!!IBzWLUs!V4ROYb9JFLf2EDnDxOYQkTD7883C1pjoSDJEYjShu6XKGqVZ8Uyy2_tovvWpV2-_ve_JcMGr53YfsSjGBa9eqxP3XOvgXARhRWk248fv$ ) when
    preparing your submission.
-   Submissions follow a single blind review process.
-   Papers must not exceed 15 pages (excluding references and
    appendices, LIPIcs style)
-   An appendix may provide additional material and proofs, but cannot
    be expected to be scrutinized by the reviewers and will not be
    published in the proceedings.
