INTRODUCTION
============
ATVA 2008 is the sixth in the series of symposia on Automated Technology
for Verification and Analysis. The purpose of ATVA is to promote research
on theoretical and practical aspects of automated analysis, verification
and synthesis in East Asia by providing a forum for interaction
between the regional and the international research communities
and industry in the field.
The first three ATVA symposia were held in 2003, 2004 and 2005 in Taipei.
ATVA 2006 and 2007 were held in Beijing and Tokyo.
The proceedings of ATVA 2008 will be published by Springer
as a volume in the LNCS series. Submissions reporting original
contributions are solicited in all areas of automated verification
and analysis. Please visit the ATVA 2008 web site for details
not found in this CFP.
SCOPE
=====
The scope of interest is intentionally kept broad; it includes:
Theory useful for providing designers with automated support for
obtaining correct software or hardware systems, including both
functional and non functional aspects, such as: theory on
automata, Petri-nets, concurrency theory, compositionality,
model-checking, automated theorem proving, synthesis,
performance analysis, correctness-by-construction results,
infinite state systems, abstract interpretation,
decidability results, parametric analysis or synthesis.
Applications of theory in engineering methods and particular
domains and handling of practical problems occurring in tools,
such as: analysis and verification tools, synthesis tools,
reducing complexity of verification by abstraction, improved
representations, handling user level notations, such as UML,
practice in industry applications to hardware, software or real-time
and embedded systems. Case studies, illustrating the usefulness
of tools or a particular approach are also welcome.
Theory papers should be motivated by practical problems and
applications should be rooted in sound theory. Of particular interest
are algorithms on one hand and methods and tools for integrating
formal approaches into industrial practice. Special care should
be taken as well to present papers in such a way that they are
accessible not only to specialists, that is, jargon need to be defined
and intuitive interpretation provided for theories.
SUBMISSIONS
===========
A submitted paper must contain original contributions, clearly written
in English, and include comparison with related work. The authors
are advised to prepare their manuscripts using the LNCS style.
Simultaneous submissions to other conferences are not allowed.
From 2008, ATVA accepts two types of contributions: RESEARCH PAPERS
and TOOL DEMONSTRATION PAPERS. Both types of contributions will appear
in the proceedings and have oral presentations during the conference.
Research papers:
Research papers should contain original research, and sufficient detail
to assess the merits and relevance of the contribution. Submissions
reporting on industrial case studies are welcome, and should describe
detailed weaknesses and strength in sufficient depth. Submitted research
papers should be no more than 15 pages long.
Tool demonstration papers:
Tool demonstration papers present tools based on aforementioned
technologies or fall into the above application areas. Tool demonstration
papers allow researchers to stress the technical and practical side,
illustrating how one can apply the theoretic contributions in practice.
Submitted tool demonstration papers should be no more than 6 pages long.
