This is the first *Call for Participants* for CPA 2017.

CPA 2017 remains open for further proposals for workshops and fringe
presentations -- see:

CPA is concerned with concurrency at all scales.  It aims to bridge the
gap between the mathematical theory of concurrency and its practical
application to the design, implementation and validation of parallel
applications for embedded, multicore and distributed computing systems.
Further information on the themes for CPA can be found in the Call for
Papers (now closed):
