23rd International Conference on Concurrency Theory
3rd to 8th September 2012, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom
http://conferences.ncl.ac.uk/concur-2012/
CONCUR 2012 is an official event of The Alan Turing Year
http://www.mathcomp.leeds.ac.uk/turing2012/
The purpose of the CONCUR conferences is to bring together researchers, developers, and students in order to advance the theory of concurrency, and promote its applications.
===================================
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 and Petri nets;
- Logics for concurrency such as modal logics, probabilistic and stochastic logics, temporal logics, and resource logics;
- Models of specialized systems such as biology-inspired systems, circuits, hybrid systems, mobile and collaborative systems, multi-core processors, probabilistic systems, real-time systems, service-oriented computing, and synchronous systems;
- 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, and type systems;
- Related programming models such as distributed, component-based, object-oriented, and web services.

PAPER SUBMISSION
CONCUR 2012 solicits high quality papers reporting research results and/or experience reports related to the topics mentioned above. All papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Contributions should be submitted electronically as PDF, using the Springer LNCS style. Papers should not exceed 15 pages in length.
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 programme committee.
Papers should be submitted electronically using EasyChair online submission system:
