=======================================================================

Call for Participation
13th Conference on Reversible Computation
(RC 2021)

July 7th-8th, 2021, Nagoya, Japan (the conference will be held online)
http://www.reversible-computation.org

Participation is free of charge (but registration is needed)

=======================================================================

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 all areas of Reversible Computation are welcome,
including--but not limited to--the following topics:

* Applications
* Architectures
* Algorithms
* Bidirectional transformations
* Circuit Design
* Debugging
* Fault Tolerance and Error Correction
* Hardware
* Information Theory
* Physical Realizations
* Programming Languages
* Quantum Computation
* Software
* Synthesis
* Theoretical Results
* Testing
* Verification
