The Second Scottish Combinatorics Meeting will take place at the University
of Glasgow on Tuesday 26th and Wednesday 27th April 2016. Everyone with an
interest in combinatorics and its applications is warmly invited to attend
this meeting.

Attendance at the meeting is free, but for catering purposes participants
are asked to register (at http://scm2016.eventbrite.co.uk) by 30th March.
The exact schedule is still to be confirmed, but talks will not start
before 10:30am and will finish by 5pm, hopefully allowing many participants
to attend as a day trip.

The invited speakers are:

Marthe Bonamy (LaBRI Bordeaux)
Mark Dukes (Strathclyde)
Jessica Enright (Stirling)
Michael Fellows (Bergen)
Jennie Hansen (Heriot Watt)
Sophie Huczynska (St Andrews)
Colin McDiarmid (Oxford)
Frances Rosamond (Bergen)

There will also be an opportunity for research students to give short (15
minute) presentations on their work, and limited funds are available to
assist with the travel expenses of students presenting their work. Please
contact Kitty Meeks for more information.

More information about the event is available at:
http://www.maths.gla.ac.uk/~kmeeks/scm/

This event is supported by the Glasgow Mathematical Journal Trust, the
British Combinatorial Committee, the Scottish Informatics and Computer
Science Alliance and the Edinburgh Mathematical Society.

19 - 21 September 2016, Aalborg, Denmark

Deadline for submissions: 13 May, 2016
http://rp16.cs.aau.dk/
----------------------------------------------------------------

The 10th Workshop on Reachability Problems will be hosted by
Aalborg University, Denmark. This event will take place in Nordkraft,
a recently reconstructed coal power station located at the harbour
front of Aalborg city centre that serves these days as a cultural
and sport centre of Aalborg.

The Reachability Workshop is specifically aimed at gathering
together scholars from diverse disciplines interested in reachability
problems that appear in algebraic structures, computational models,
hybrid systems, logic and verification.

Invited Speakers:

- Alain Finkel, ENS de Cachan, France
- Axel Legay, INRIA, Rennes Cedex, France
- Jaco van de Pol, University of Twente, Netherlands


Submissions:

Authors are invited to submit a draft of a full paper with at most 12 pages
(in LaTeX, formatted according to LNCS guidelines) via the conference web page.
Proofs omitted due to space constraints must be put into an appendix to be read
by the program committee members at their discretion. Submissions deviating
from these guidelines risk rejection. Electronic submissions should be
formatted in pdf. Simultaneous submission to other conferences or workshops
with published proceedings is not allowed.

Submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rp2016

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 aspects of algebraic structures
(semigroups, groups and rings); frontiers between decidable and undecidable
reachability problems; predictability in iterative maps and new computational
paradigms.


Important Dates

- Submission deadline: 13 May 2016
- Notification to authors: 30 June 2016
- Final version: 11 July 2016
- Workshop: 19 - 21 September 2016


Presentation-Only Track

In addition to regular papers that will appear in our LNCS proceedings, we
invite researchers to apply to give a presentation at RP'16 without an
accompanying paper. Such presentations can be based on work that has appeared
(or which is going to appear) in the proceedings of another conference, or
which has not yet been submitted. These contributions will be judged solely on
the basis of their attractiveness to the workshop.

To apply to give such a presentation please submit a PDF file containing a
short abstract (up to two pages) by e-mail [ rp2016@easychair.org ] by
August 1st 2016, with subject "RP2016 Informal Presentations". This abstract
will not be published in the conference proceedings.
Notification for the presentation-only track will be August 8th 2016.


Proceedings

The Conference Proceedings will be published as the volume of the Springer
Verlag LNCS (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) series and distributed at the
Conference. We plan also to publish selected papers in a special issue of a
high quality journal following the regular referee procedure.

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

SPIN 2016

23rd International SPIN Symposium on Model Checking of Software
7--8 April 2016, Eindhoven, The Netherlands
http://www.spin2016.info<http://www.spin2016.info/>
(colocated with ETAPS 2016)
======================================================================

---- ABOUT SPIN ----

The 23rd edition of the SPIN symposium aims at bringing together
practitioners and researchers interested in symbolic and state
space-based techniques for the validation and analysis of software
systems. Techniques and empirical evaluations based
on explicit representations of state spaces, as implemented in
the SPIN model checker or other tools, or techniques based on the
combination of explicit representations with other representations,
are the focus of this symposium.

We particularly welcome papers describing the development and
application of state space exploration techniques in testing and
verifying embedded software, safety-critical software, enterprise
and web applications, and other interesting software platforms. The
symposium aims to encourage interactions and exchanges of ideas with
all related areas in software engineering.

SPIN 2016 will be colocated with the 19th European Joint Conferences on
Theory and Practice of Software (ETAPS 2016). An overview of the previous
SPIN symposia can be found at http://spinroot.com/spin/Workshops.
