FSCD 2027: International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation
and Deduction
Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands
23-26 August 2027
https://fscd-conference.org/2027
CALL FOR PAPERS
- FSCD (https://fscd-conference.org/) covers all aspects of formal
structures for computation and deduction, from theoretical foundations to
applications. Building on two communities, RTA (Rewriting Techniques and
Applications) and TLCA (Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications), FSCD
embraces their core topics and broadens their scope to closely related
areas in logic, models of computation, semantics and verification in new
challenging areas.
- IMPORTANT DATES
All deadlines are midnight anywhere-on-earth (AoE); late submissions
will not be considered.
Abstract: Apr 19, 2027
Submission: Apr 26, 2027
Author Response: Jun 08, 2027
Notification: Jun 28, 2027
Final Version: Jul 10, 2027For a complete list of topics please visit
the online CFP.
- PUBLICATION
The proceedings will be published as an electronic volume in the Leibniz
International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) of Schloss Dagstuhl. All
LIPIcs proceedings are open access.
- SPECIAL ISSUE
There will be a special issue of Logical Methods in Computer Science of
selected papers. More details will be provided later.
- SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
The submission site is: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fscd2027
Submissions must be formatted using the LIPIcs style files and submitted
via EasyChair.
Submissions can be made in two categories:
- Regular research papers are limited to 15 pages, excluding references
and appendices. They must present original research which is unpublished
and not submitted elsewhere.
- System descriptions are limited to 15 pages, excluding references.
Shorter papers are welcome and will be given equal
consideration. A system
description must present new software tools, or significantly
new versions
of such tools, in which FSCD topics play an important role. An archive of
the code with instructions on how to install and run the tool must be
submitted. In addition, a webpage where the system can be
experimented with
should be provided.
Submissions must be unpublished and not submitted for publication
elsewhere. They will be judged on relevance, significance, originality,
correctness, and readability. Reviewers may consider material provided in
appendices, but submissions must be self-contained within the page limit.
If software or data is relevant to a paper, a link that provides access to
the software/data must be provided to enable reproduction of results.
One author of each accepted paper is expected to register and present
the work in person at the conference. In case this is not possible, online
presentation will be arranged, but in-person registration will still be
required.
- BEST PAPER AWARD BY JUNIOR RESEARCHERS
The programme committee will select a paper in which at least one author
is a junior researcher, i.e. either a student or someone whose PhD award
date is less than three years from the first day of the meeting. When
submitting the paper, other authors should declare to the PC Chair that at
least 50% of the contribution is made by the junior researcher(s).
- CONTACT
All questions about submissions should be emailed to:
- Daniele Nantes-Sobrinho (dnantes 'at' unb.br)
- Mariangiola Dezani-Ciancaglini (dezani 'at' di.unito.it)
