SOFTWARE SCIENCE AND COMPUTATION STRUCTURES
Part of the ETAPS International Joint Conferences On Theory and Practice of
Software
https://etaps.org/2026/conferences/fossacs/
April 11-16, 2026
Torino, Italy
CALL FOR PAPERS
- GENERAL
FoSSaCS seeks original papers on foundational research with a clear
significance for software science. The conference invites submissions on
theories and methods to support the analysis, integration, synthesis,
transformation, and verification of programs and software systems.
- TOPICS
For a complete list of topics please visit the website.
- PROCEEDINGS
The FoSSaCS 2026 proceedings will be published in Springer LNCS as gold
open access. In addition, there will be a special issue of the diamond
open-access journal Logical Methods in Computer Science with extended
version of selected papers from the conference.
- SUBMISSIONS
FoSSaCS solicits just a single paper category: research papers. The page
limit is 18 pages excluding references, respecting Springer’s LNCS format
at the submission time. Additional material (no page limit) can be placed
in a clearly marked appendix, at the end of the paper. The papers can be
submitted at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fossacs2026
FoSSaCS 2026 will adopt a double-blind reviewing process, in line with
the other ETAPS conferences. PC members will be allowed to submit up to one
paper. These submissions will be held to a higher standard -- for example,
PC submissions will not be part of the final vote.
- ARTIFACT EVALUATION
FoSSaCS 2026 will have a post-paper-acceptance voluntary artifact
evaluation. Authors will be encouraged to submit artifacts for evaluation
after paper notification. The outcome will not alter the paper’s acceptance
decision. Guillermo Alberto Perez (University of Antwerp) will act as the
FoSSaCS artifact evaluation chair. Detailed information will appear at
https://etaps.org/2026/conferences/ae-esop-fase-fossacs

WoLLIC 2026: 32nd Workshop on Logic, Language, Information and Computation
3-6 August 2026, Lima, Peru
Universidad de Ingenieria y Tecnologia, Lima, Peru
Center of Informatics, Federal University of Pernambuco, Brazil
https://wollic.org/wollic2026 [wollic.org]
CALL FOR PAPERS
- WoLLIC is an annual international forum on interdisciplinary research
involving formal logic, computing and programming theory, and natural
language and reasoning. Each meeting includes invited talks and tutorials
as well as contributed papers. The thirty-second WoLLIC will be held at
Universidad de Ingenieria y Tecnologia, Lima, Peru, August 3 to 6 2026.
- SCOPE
Contributions are invited on all pertinent subjects, with particular
interest in cross-disciplinary topics. Typical but not exclusive areas of
interest are: non-classical logics; foundations of computing, programming
and Artificial Intelligence (AI); novel computation models and paradigms;
broad notions of proof and belief; proof mining, type theory, effective
learnability and explainable AI; formal methods in software and hardware
development; logical approach to natural language and reasoning; logics of
programs, actions and resources; foundational aspects of information
organization, search, flow, sharing and protection; foundations of
mathematics; philosophical logic; philosophy of language.
- PAPER SUBMISSION
Proposed contributions should be in English, and consist of a scholarly
exposition accessible to the non-specialist, including motivation,
background, and comparison with related works. Articles should be written
in the LaTeX format of LNCS by Springer (see author's instructions at
https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines
They
must not exceed 12 pages, with up to 5 additional pages for references and
technical appendices. The paper's main results must not be published or
submitted for publication in refereed venues, including journals and other
scientific meetings. It is expected that each accepted paper be presented
at the meeting by one of its authors in person. (At least one author is
required to pay a full, on-site registration fee before granting that the
paper will be published in the proceedings.) Papers must be submitted
electronically at the WoLLIC 2026 EasyChair website
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wollic2026 [easychair.org].
- PROCEEDINGS
The proceedings of WoLLIC 2026, including both invited and contributed
papers, will be published in advance of the meeting as a volume in
Springer's LNCS series. In addition, abstracts will be published in the
Conference Report section of the Logic Journal of the IGPL, and selected
contributions will be published (after a new round of reviewing) as a
special post-conference WoLLIC 2026 issue of a scientific journal (tba).
