CALL FOR PAPERS Reed-Muller 2027

A Workshop on Function Representations and their Application

09:00 – 12:00 May 31, 2027

Bergseminar Building

University of South-Eastern Norway

Kongsberg, Norway

Preceding the International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic

The goal of the Reed-Muller Workshop is to provide a forum for researchers to exchange and discuss research ideas in the following and related areas:

• Spectral representation of switching functions
• Graph-based representations of switching functions: BDD, MDD, BMD, EVBDD, etc.
• EXOR-based representations
• Applications of the Reed-Muller transform, including circuit design, processing, etc.
• Implementation in silicon (ASICs, SoCs, FPGAs, PIC, QPIC)
• Representations and design methods related to emerging technologies: quantum informatics, reversible computing, nano-technology, molecular scale computing etc.
• Cryptographically-significant functions, PQC, and other applications in cybersecurity
• Non-linear functions: properties, classes, bent functions, etc.

Important Dates

• Full paper submission: February 1, 2027
• Notification of acceptance: March 15, 2027
• Camera ready paper due: May 1, 2027
