FoSSaCS 2025

28th International Conference on Foundations of Software Science and Computation Structures

General Information

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. The specific topics covered by the conference include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • categorical models and logics;
  • language theory, automata, and games;
  • modal, spatial, and temporal logics;
  • type theory and proof theory;
  • concurrency theory and process calculi;
  • rewriting theory;
  • semantics of programming languages;
  • program analysis, correctness, transformation, and verification;
  • logics of programming;
  • software specification and refinement;
  • models of concurrent, reactive, stochastic, distributed, hybrid, and mobile systems;
  • emerging models of computation;
  • logical aspects of computational complexity;
  • models of software security;
  • logical foundations of data bases

Paper Submission

Submit paper

FoSSaCS solicits just a single paper category—research papers. The page limit is 18 pp excluding references, respecting the 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.

PC submissions are not allowed.

The important dates are available in the Joint Call for Papers.

The papers can be submitted here.

Artifact Evaluation

FoSSaCS 2025 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.

For more information about FoSSaCS artifact evaluation, please contact Ondřej Lengál.

Detailed information can be found here.
