CALL FOR PAPERS
===============

16th International Symposium on Automated Technology for Verification
and Analysis (ATVA 2018)

October 7-10, 2018, Los Angeles, California, USA.

http://atva-conference.org/


Scope
-----

ATVA 2018 is the 16th in a series of symposia dedicated to the
promotion of research on theoretical and practical aspects of
automated analysis, verification and synthesis by providing a
forum for interaction between local and international research
communities and industry in the field. Previous events were
held in Taiwan (2003-2005), Beijing (2006), Tokyo (2007),
Seoul (2008), Macao (2009), Singapore (2010), Taiwan (2011),
Thiruvananthapuram (2012), Hanoi (2013), Sydney (2014),
Shanghai (2015), Chiba (2016), and Pune (2017).

As in the previous years, the proceedings will be published in
Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.

ATVA 2018 solicits high quality submissions on, but not limited
to, the following topics:

* Formalisms for modeling hardware, software and embedded systems
* Specification and verification of finite- and infinite-state systems
* Program analysis, symbolic execution, and software verification
* Verification of hardware, systems-on-chip and embedded systems
* Analysis of real-time, hybrid, and probabilistic systems
* Deductive, algorithmic, or compositional analysis and verification
* Analytical techniques for safety, security, and dependability
* Testing and runtime analysis based on verification technology
* Analysis and verification of parallel and concurrent systems
* Verification in industrial practice
* Synthesis for hardware and software systems
* Applications and case studies
* Automated tool support


Submissions
-----------

ATVA invites submissions in two categories:

* Regular research papers (16 pages, including references)
* Tool papers (6 pages, including references)

Submissions must be in Springer's LNCS format. Additional material
may be placed in an appendix, to be read at the discretion of the
reviewers and to be omitted in the final version. Formatting style
files and further guidelines for formatting can be found at the
Springer website.

Tool papers must include information about a URL from where the tool
can be downloaded or accessed on-line for evaluation. The URL must
also contain a set of examples, and a user manual that describes
usage of the tool through examples. In case the tool needs to be
downloaded and installed, the URL must contain instructions for
installation of the tool on Linux/Windows/MacOS.

Papers must be submitted to the EasyChair site at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=atva2018

Accepted papers in both categories will be published in Springer's
LNCS series.

At least one author of each accepted paper is expected to register and
present the paper at the conference.
