VMCAI  provides  a  forum  for  researchers from  the  communities  of
Verification,    Model   Checking,   and    Abstract   Interpretation,
facilitating  interaction,  cross-fertilization,  and  advancement  of
hybrid methods. VMCAI'10 is co-located with the POPL'10 conference.

The  program of  VMCAI'10 will  consist of  invited  lectures, invited
tutorials,   refereed  research   papers,  and   tool  demonstrations.
Research contributions can report  new results as well as experimental
evaluations  and comparisons of  existing techniques.  Topics include,
but are not limited to:

 program verification         program certification
 model checking               debugging techniques
 abstract interpretation      abstract domains
 static analysis              type systems
 deductive methods            optimization

Submissions   can   address   any  programming   paradigm,   including
concurrent,    constraint,   functional,   imperative,    logic,   and
