SynCoP 2026
11th International Workshop on Synthesis of Complex Parameters
Torino, Sunday 12th April 2026
About
SynCoP (11th International Workshop on Synthesis of Complex Parameters) aims at bringing together researchers working on verification and parameter synthesis for systems with discrete or continuous parameters, in which the parameters influence the behaviour of the system in ways that are complex and difficult to predict. Such problems may arise for real-time, hybrid or probabilistic systems in a large variety of application domains. The parameters can be continuous (e.g., timing, probabilities, costs) or discrete (e.g., number of processes). The goal can be to identify suitable parameters to achieve desired behaviour, or to verify the behaviour for a given range of parameter values. Systems composed of a finite but possibly arbitrary number of identical components occur everywhere from hardware design (e.g., cache coherence protocols) to distributed applications (e.g., client-server applications). Parameterised verification is the task of verifying the correctness of this kind of systems regardless the number of their components.
SynCoP 2026 is an event associated to ETAPS 2026.
