VMCAI 2013 CALL FOR PAPERS

14th International Conference on
Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation (VMCAI)

    http://vmcai13.di.univr.it

January 20-22, 2013, Rome, Italy
Co-located with POPL 2013 (http://popl.mpi-sws.org/2013/)

SCOPE

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 that combine these and
related areas.

The program of VMCAI'13 will consist of refereed research papers and tool
demonstrations, as well as invited lectures and tutorials. 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, model checking, abstract interpretation and abstract
domains, program synthesis, static analysis, type systems, deductive methods,
program certification, debugging techniques, program transformation,
optimization, hybrid and cyberphysical systems.
Submissions can address any programming paradigm, including concurrent,
constraint, functional, imperative, logic and object-oriented programming.

Papers must describe original work, be written and presented in English, and
must not overlap with papers that have been published or that are
simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with refereed
proceedings. Proceedings are published by Springer-Verlag as volumes in the
Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.
