1st Call for Papers

SoCS 2025

The 18th International Symposium on Combinatorial Search

https://socs25.search-conference.org/


August 12-15, 2025

University of Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom 

co-located with CP and SAT

Paper submission deadline: March 19, 2025


You are cordially invited to submit your new research findings to the 18th Symposium of Combinatorial Search (SoCS 2025), jointly organized with SAT 2025 and CP 2025 in Glasgow, UK, from August 12 to August 15, 2024. The joint conference already starts on August 10th, with the first two days devoted to CP and SAT workshops and doctoral consortiums only. The SoCS Doctoral Consortium will be organized during the SoCS conference days as usual.

Heuristic search and other forms of combinatorial search and optimization are very active areas of research in artificial intelligence, robotics, planning, constraint programming, meta-reasoning, navigation, bioinformatics, and other areas of computer science and operations research. The International Symposium on Combinatorial Search is meant to bring researchers in such areas together to exchange their ideas and cross-fertilize the field. We especially invite submissions presenting real-world applications of heuristic search.

With CP 2025 and SAT 2025 co-located this year, we particularly welcome papers that explore the intersections between our research topics and the problems studied by these communities.

All accepted papers will be included in the proceedings published by AAAI Press as usual.
