CALL FOR PAPERS COMPUTER AIDED VERIFICATION CAV 20007 19th International Conference July 3-7, 2007, Berlin, Germany http://www.cav2007.org
Aims and Scope:
CAV'07 is the 19th in a series dedicated to the advancement of the theory and practice of computer-aided formal analysis methods for hardware and software systems. CAV considers it vital to continue its leadership in hardware verification, and maintain its recent momentum in software verification. The conference covers the spectrum from theoretical results to concrete applications, with an emphasis on practical verification tools and the algorithms and techniques that are needed for their implementation. The proceedings of the conference will be published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. A selection of papers will be invited to a special issue of the International Journal on Formal Methods and System Design.
Topics of interest include:
- Algorithms and tools for verifying models and implementations - Hardware verification techniques - Hybrid systems and embedded systems verification - Program analysis and software verification - Modeling and specification formalisms - Deductive, compositional, and abstraction techniques for verification - Testing and runtime analysis based on verification technology - Applications and case studies - Verification in industrial practice
Paper submission:
There are two categories of submissions:
A. Regular papers. Submissions, not exceeding thirteen (13) pages using Springer's LNCS format, should contain original research, and sufficient detail to assess the merits and relevance of the contribution. For papers reporting experimental results, authors are strongly encouraged to make their data available with their submission. Submissions reporting on case studies in an industrial context are strongly invited, and should describe details, weaknesses and strength in sufficient depth. Simultaneous submission to other conferences with proceedings or submission of material that has already been published elsewhere is not allowed.
B. Tool presentations. Submissions, not exceeding four (4) pages using Springer's LNCS format, should describe the implemented tool and its novel features. A demonstration is expected to accompany a tool presentation. Papers describing tools that have already been presented in this conference before will be accepted only if significant and clear enhancements to the tool are reported and implemented.
Information concerning the procedure for submissions will be available on the conference home page:
Submissions will be evaluated by the program committee for inclusion in the proceedings, which will be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series. Papers exceeding the stated maximum length or submitted after January 28, 2007 run the risk of rejection without review.
On an experimental basis for this year, authors will be granted access to the text content of their reviews during the review process. Authors will be given a short time period in which to submit feedback, which may (at the PC's discretion) be taken into account in the decision process. Strict guidelines on length and content of feedback will be provided to the authors.
Important dates:
Paper submission (firm): January 28, 2007 Author feedback period: March 9-11, 2007 Notification of acceptance: March 23, 2007 Final version due: April 20, 2007
