GSW 26: Grammar Systems Workshop Trier University, 30-31 July, 2026 Trier, Germany, July 30-31, 2026 |
The workshop GSW focuses on new theoretical developments and expanded applications of Grammar Systems, a computational framework composed of multiple cooperating grammars or automata, in a generalized sense, providing a powerful and elegant means of capturing distributed, interactive, and parallel processes. Over the years, they have become an established theoretical tool for modelling multi-component and multiagent scenarios, where coordination, communication, and distribution of language generation and recognition play essential roles. As AI tools and biologically inspired or unconventional computing paradigms increasingly emphasize modularity, interaction, and distributed processing, grammar systems offer a powerful theoretical foundation for better understanding the underlying processes.
We are proud to have Erzsébet Csuhaj-Varjú (Budapest, Hungary), as an invited speaker. She is one of the founders of the area.
Submission Guidelines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome.
- full research papers (12–16 pages),
- position papers (up to 8 pages), or
- short papers (up to 4 pages).
We expect papers to be submitted in LNCS format, including all content except the optional appendices (which the Program Committee will evaluate at its discretion); alternatively, please include a link to the arXiv version. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee. Accepted Papers will be collected in Workshop Proceedings available online [link to be provided before the Workshop]. Selected papers are intended to be published in a journal undergoing its usual reviewing process.
