Turin, November 3rd—4th, 2025
Welcome to our workshop on Task Chains. The workshop is organized in the context of the Italy-Sweden collaboration financed by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation and the Swedish Research Council.
This event brings together leading researchers and practitioners to explore the latest methods for analyzing and optimizing task chains across a variety of domains, mostly in connection with cyber-physical systems. The program is structured around key themes highlighting both foundational theory and applied techniques.

By addressing challenges such as end-to-end latency, determinism, and efficient system design, the workshop aims to provide a comprehensive view of current advances and open questions in this area. With contributions spanning from formal models to practical analysis tools, the sessions are designed to foster in-depth discussion and encourage cross-domain perspectives on how to tackle the complexity of modern real-time systems.
The participation to the workshop is free of charge and based on invitations only. If interested, feel free to contact the organizers.

Social event
As part of our social programme, on November 3 we will visit the Museo Egizio in Turin, the second largest collections of Egyptian antiquities in the world after Cairo’s. We will explore the museum’s galleries together, discovering mummies, papyri, statues, and ancient treasures that trace over four millennia of Egyptian history. After our visit, we’ll all go out to enjoy dinner together, giving us more time to chat, relax, and continue the conversations sparked by the day’s talks.
