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 (timed) 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.
