ReacTS'24

International Workshop on Reconfigurable Transition Systems:
Semantics, Logics and Applications
==================================================
2nd Call for Papers

https://reacts2024.github.io/

Tuesday, 5 November 2024, Aveiro, Portugal

Satellite event of SEFM 2024 (https://sefm-conference.github.io/sefm2024)

==================================================
OVERVIEW
==================================================

Reconfigurable Transition Systems (RTS) are dynamic relational structures
(graphs) that evolve along its execution, in the sense that their
accessibility relation, their set of nodes or their labelling change when
their edges are crossed. These structures have proven to be suitable to
compactly represent complex reactive and reconfigurable behaviours. Namely,
the ability of reacting or readapting under the influence of certain events
is a very distinctive feature of many diverse situations and objects. An
autonomous vehicle that changes its route due to a new strike occurring,
the behaviour of a software component after a memory disposal, or a DNA
mutation as the result of a viral infection, are different examples that
witness the importance of modelling about changes in a determined
situation. Practical user cases have aroused the interest of the logic
community in the study of variants of RTS, by developing formal methods to
properly reason about such situations.

This workshop aims to bring together the whole community of researchers
working on different ways to model reconfigurable and reactive systems from
a formal perspective. This includes theoretical approaches (like hybrid
logics, reactive frames, model-update logics), or formalisms designed for
specific purposes (like separation logic in software verification, dynamic
epistemic logic in AI planning, and others). Also, our goal is to devise
novel approaches and potential applications, and share a common perspective
on the discipline.

==================================================
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
==================================================

Authors are invited to submit, via EasyChair research contributions or
experience reports (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=reacts2024).

All papers should be written in English and prepared using the specific
LNCS templates available at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.

There are two categories of submissions

FULL PAPERS up to 12 pages excluding reference,   – to present
original research and the analysis, interpretation and validation of the
research findings.

SHORT PRESENTATIONS up to 4 pages,  – to present work in progress and
preliminary results.

Both kinds of submissions allow system descriptions,  to present a new
tool, a new tool component or novel extensions to an existing tool aiming
at supporting open community approaches, or the use/customisation of an
existing tool in the context of RTS.

Accepted Full Papers will be included in the workshop programme and will
appear in the workshop LNCS proceedings.

Accepted Short presentations  will be included in the pre-proceeding
(available online before the Workshop) but not published in the LNCS
proceedings.
