About

The Applied Mathematics Department at UCLouvain and the Computer Science Department at ULB jointly organize the 13th International Conference on Reachability Problems (RP'19). The event will take place in the Brussels city center.

Papers presenting original contributions related to reachability problems in different computational models and systems are being sought.

This will also be the occasion to review recent breakthroughs by renowned invited experts and survey emerging trends and emphasize on key open challenges. Participants are kindly encouraged to discuss core scientific issues that need to be further tackled.

Conference proceedings will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).

A selection of articles among the contributed papers will be invited to a special issue of a journal (tba).

Topics

The conference is specifically aimed at gathering together scholars from diverse disciplines and backgrounds interested in reachability problems that appear in

  • ●  Algebraic structures
  • ●  Automata Theory and Formal Languages
  • ●  Computational Game Theory
  • ●  Concurrency and Distributed Computation
  • ●  Decision Procedures in Computational Models
  • ●  Hybrid Dynamical Systems
  • ●  Logic and Model Checking
  • ●  Verification of Finite and Infinite-State Systems

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): reachability problems in infinite-state systems, rewriting systems, dynamical and hybrid systems; reachability problems in logic and verification; reachability analysis in different computational models, counter timed/ cellular/ communicating automata; Petri nets; computational and combinatorial aspects of algebraic structures (semigroups, groups and rings); frontiers between decidable and undecidable reachability problems; predictability in iterative maps and new computational paradigms.

Venue

The conference will be held in the beautiful city center of Brussels, at the University Foundation.
