SynCoP 2024 aims at bringing together researchers working on 
verification and
parameter synthesis for systems with discrete or continuous parameters, in
which the parameters influence the behaviour of the system in ways that are
complex and difficult to predict. Such problems may arise for real-time, 
hybrid
or probabilistic systems in a large variety of application domains. The
parameters can be continuous (e.g. timing, probabilities, costs) or 
discrete
(e.g. number of processes). The goal can be to identify suitable 
parameters to
achieve desired behaviour, or to verify the behaviour for a given range of
parameter values.

Systems composed of a finite but possibly arbitrary number of identical
components occur everywhere from hardware design (e.g. cache coherence
protocols) to distributed applications (e.g. client-server applications).
Parameterised verification is the task of verifying the correctness of this
kind of systems regardless the number of their components.

The scientific subject of the workshop covers (but is not limited to) the
following areas:

* parameter synthesis,
* parametric model checking,
* regular model checking,
* robustness analysis,
* parameterised logics, decidability and complexity issues,
* formalisms such as parametric timed and hybrid automata, parametric 
time(d)
   Petri nets, parametric probabilistic (timed) automata, parametric Markov
   Decision Processes, networks of identical processes,
* specifications in automata and logic, term and graph rewriting, Petri 
nets,
   process algebra, ...
* validation methods via assertional and regular model checking, 
reachability
   and coverability decision procedures, abstractions, theorem proving,
   constraint solving, ...
* interactions between discrete and continuous parameters,
* tools and applications to hardware design, cache coherence protocols,
   security and communication protocols, multithreaded and concurrent 
programs,
   programs with relaxed memory models, mobile and distributed systems, 
database
   languages and systems, biological systems, ...

We thus invite short abstracts that present recently published works, 
ongoing
works, or works under submission.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

SynCoP seeks short abstracts only.

The page limit is *3 pages* (excluding bibliography) in single column. All
accepted abstracts will be made available to the participants of the 
workshop
but they will not result in referenced publications.

Authors of accepted abstracts will be required to give an informal 
presentation
during the workshop.

Submission must be in English and submitted in PDF format via a simple 
email to
syncop24 at lipn.univ-paris13.fr.

IMPORTANT DATES (AoE)

  * Submission: February 4, 2024
  * Notification: February 26, 2024
  * Final version: March 17, 2024
  * Workshop: April 6-7, 2024
