We kindly invite researchers, professionals, designers, and industry practitioners to propose and organise workshops in the scope of the 6th International Formal Methods in Architecture Symposium (6FMA).
Workshops should build an insightful discussion on relevant topics of Formal Methods applied to Architecture and Urbanism within the topics of the Symposium.
They are spaces where new research can be shown and tested.
Workshops’ chairs have an opportunity to share their current research and practical development experiences.
For participants, workshops should be an opportunity to obtain theoretical and hands-on experiences on emerging formal methods topics for architecture.

The workshops will be held on May 14 at ETSA-UDC, La Coruña, Galicia.
We expect to accommodate 4 to 6 workshops that will work with small groups.
Workshops can take advantage of ETSA-UDC’s facilities and equipment, which include 3D printers, a laser cutting machine, a numerical control milling machine and a hot wire cutting machine.
