General Information
 
The 32nd International Colloquium On Structural Information and Communication Complexity (SIROCCO 2025) will take place on June 2-4, 2025, in Delphi, Greece. See the Call for Papers for more information about the scope and submission instructions.
 
About SIROCCO
 
SIROCCO is devoted to the study of the interplay between structural knowledge, communication, and computing in decentralized systems of multiple communicating entities. Special emphasis is given to innovative methodological and solution approaches leading to a better understanding of the relationship between computing and communication.
 
Keynote Speakers
 
 
  • Hagit Attiya, Technion, Israel
  • Joseph Y. Halpern, Cornell University, USA
  • Christos Papadimitriou, Columbia University, USA, and Archimedes, Athena Research Center, Greece
will present their view of the future of scientific research in their fields, particularly the challenges and threats posed by recent developments in computer science, engineering, and academic research and education. 
 
Venue
 
SIROCCO 2025 will take place in the historic town of Delphi, Greece, at the European Cultural Centre of Delphi. This UNESCO World Heritage site, once home to the oracle of Apollo and the omphalos, the 'navel of the world', is renowned for its profound blend of natural beauty and sacred history. Known as the seat of the high priestess Pythia of the Temple of Apollo, Delphi was considered the center of the world by the ancient Greeks, primarily due to the Oracle of Delphi where the priestess dispensed prophecies. Conveniently located just a few hours’ drive from Athens, Delphi is easily accessible for international attendees. Participants will enjoy breathtaking views of the Amphissa Olive Grove and the Itea Bay from the Centre’s guest rooms, which are equipped with modern amenities. Additionally, Delphi hosts the renowned Delphi Archaeological Museum, one of Greece’s most visited cultural treasures.
