Call for Papers

Reversible computation has a growing number of promising application areas such as low power design, coding/decoding, debugging, testing and verification, database recovery, discrete event simulation, reversible algorithms, reversible specification formalisms, reversible programming languages, process algebras, and the modeling of biochemical systems. Furthermore, reversible logic provides a basis for quantum computation with its applications, for example, in cryptography and in the development of highly efficient algorithms. First reversible circuits and quantum circuits have been implemented and are seen as promising alternatives to conventional CMOS technology.

The conference will bring together researchers from computer science, mathematics, and physics to discuss new developments and directions for future research in Reversible Computation. This includes applications of reversibility in quantum computation. Research papers, tutorials, tool demonstrations, and work-in-progress reports are within the scope of the conference. Invited talks by leading international experts will complete the program. Contributions on the following topics in Reversible Computation are welcome:

in Springer LNCS format. Additional material intended for reviewers but not for publication in the final version---for example, details of proofs---may be placed in a clearly marked appendix that is not included in the page limit. Reviewers are at liberty to ignore appendices and papers must be understandable without them. Contributions must be written in English and report on original, unpublished work, not submitted for publication elsewhere. Submissions not adhering to the specified constraints may be rejected without review. Papers can be submitted electronically in pdf via the RC 2022 interface of the EasyChair system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rc2022

All accepted research papers will be published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).

Special Issue
