MEMOCODE 2025

MEMCODE 2025 – 23rd ACM/IEEE International Symposium on Formal Methods and Models for System Design (FMCPS)
Part of ESWEEK 2025
October 02-03, 2025, TAIPEI, TAIWAN

MEMOCODE, originally a forum on methods and models for hardware-software codesign, has become a privileged forum to discuss on formal methods and models for the design of cyber-physical system and the verification of its safety and security requirements (FMCPS).

MEMOCODE’25 is a part of ESWEEK 2025, which will take place in Taipei, Taiwan. Registered attendees can attend sessions in any of the online events, including the conferences (CASES, CODES+ISSS, EMSOFT), symposia, tutorials, workshops, and education classes.

Topics of interest
MEMOCODE solicits research papers on formal methods in system design that address the foundations, engineering methods, tools, or experimental case studies. Research areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Modeling Languages, Methods, and Tools
• Formal Methods and Tools
• Models and Methods for Developing Critical Systems
• Quantitative/Qualitative Reasoning
• Formal Methods/Models in Practice
• AI/LLM Assisted Formal Verification/testing

Important Dates
Abstract submission deadline: April 28, 2025
Paper submission deadline: May 5, 2025
Notification of acceptance: Jul 8, 2025
 Final version of papers: August 11, 2025

Submissions
MEMOCODE’25 calls for three kinds of submissions: regular papers, late-breaking results, and tool presentations. All papers must be written in English and formatted according to the ACM Sigconf style conference template. A double-blind review process will be enforced. Authors must not reveal their identity directly or indirectly. Submission of papers is handled via HotCRP.

• Regular papers are no longer than ten (10) pages, excluding bibliography and appendices. They should describe original work that does not overlap with another publication or a submission under review or accepted for publication by any other conference or journal. Reviewers will check regular papers for the soundness and novelty of the proposed solutions.
• Tool papers are no longer than eight (8) pages, excluding bibliography and appendices. They should describe an existing and publicly available tool that implements relevant methods. The methods might have been published before, but the tool should not have been described in a tool paper previously. In addition to reviewing the paper, reviewers will assess the tool itself using inputs and a user’s manual provided by the authors on the tool’s web page.
• Late-breaking Results (LB) papers are no longer than four (4) pages, excluding bibliography and appendices. They should describe a promising and novel idea with a potential to get breakthrough in the field. Reviewers will judge the novelty of the idea, but do not yet expect proofs for the envisioned results.

For questions regarding technical submissions, feel free to contact one of the program committee co-chairs. All accepted papers (regular papers, late-breaking results, and tool papers) will be submitted for inclusion in ACM Digital Library. Publication in the proceedings is contingent on one author registering for and presenting the paper at the conference.

Outstanding Paper Award
A selection of papers will be recognized as outstanding papers and will be highlighted on the symposium website.

Special Edition for Journal
Selected accepted papers will be invited to extend their accepted papers (at least 30% extension over the accepted version) for a special edition in a journal such as the ACM Transactions on Embedded Computing Systems (ACM TECS) or Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems (LITES). Kindly follow the call for submissions for the special edition to check the relevant deadlines and timeline of the review process. Note that the extended version of the paper will go through a separate review process in the journal.
