International Conference on Concurrency Theory

The International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR) is an academic conference in the field of computer science, with focus on the theory of concurrency and its applications. It is the flagship conference for concurrency theory according to the International Federation for Information Processing Working Group on Concurrency Theory (WP 1.8).[1] The conference is organised annually since 1988. Since 2015, papers presented at CONCUR are published in the LIPIcs–Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics, a "series of high-quality conference proceedings across all fields in informatics established in cooperation with Schloss Dagstuhl –Leibniz Center for Informatics".[2][3] Before, CONCUR papers were published in the series Lecture Notes in Computer Science.[4]

Test-of-Time Award

edit

In 2020, the International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR) and the IFIP Working Group 1.8 on Concurrency Theory established the CONCUR Test-of-Time Award. The goal of the Award is to recognize important achievements in concurrency theory that have stood the test of time, and were published at CONCUR since its first edition in 1990.[15]

Starting with CONCUR 2024, an award event will take place every other year, and recognize one or two papers presented at CONCUR in the 4-year period from 20 to 17 years earlier. From 2020 to 2023 two such award events are combined each year, in order to also recognize achievements that appeared in the early editions of CONCUR.[16]
