SynCoP 2016 (ETAPS Satellite Event): Call for Informal Presentations
Call for informal presentations (abstracts)
SynCoP 20163rd International Workshop on the SYNthesis of COmplex Parameters ( SynCoP 2016)
(ETAPS satellite event)
http://lipn.univ-paris13.fr/SynCoP2016/
SynCoP 2016 (ETAPS satellite event) will feature a session for informal presentations where authors can present tools and ongoing or previously published work. These presentations will not be subject to proceedings publication.
We encourage all interested authors to send an abstract to syncop2016@easychair.org before Feb 15.
SynCoP aims at bringing together researchers working on verification and parameter synthesis for systems with discrete or continuous parameters, in which the parameters influence the behavior 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 behavior, or to verify the behavior for a given range of parameter values.
The workshop will take place on Sunday, April 3, 2016, in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, as a satellite event of ETAPS.
The workshop may be able to (at least partially) support the travel and the ETAPS workshop registration fees for one or two PhD or Master student(s).
IMPORTANT DATES
- Informal presentations: February 15, 2016
- Notification: February 22, 2016
- Pre-Proceedings camera ready: March, 7, 2016

TOPICS OF THE WORKSHOP
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
- parametric 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
- interactions between discrete and continuous parameters
- tools and applications to major areas of computer science, biology and control engineering.
SUBMISSION FOR INFORMAL PRESENTATIONS
SynCoP will feature at least one session where authors can present
tools, ongoing work or previously published work of interest to our community.
We encourage all interested authors to send an abstract of their presentation to syncop2016@easychair.org. Selected presentations will be announced on February 22 but will not be subject to proceedings publication.
