VMCAI 2009
The Tenth International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation
Savannah, GA, USA, January 18-20, 2009
Conference website: http://cs.uni-muenster.de/vmcai09
===============================================================================
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. VMCAI'09 is co-located with the POPL'09 conference.
The program of VMCAI'09 will consist of invited lectures, tutorials, refereed research papers, and tool demonstrations. 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 program certification model checking debugging techniques abstract interpretation abstract domains static analysis type systems deductive methods optimization
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 substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with refereed proceedings. The proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.
The page limit for submissions is 15 pages in Springer's LNCS format. Additional material may be placed in an appendix, to be read at the discretion of the reviewers. Formatting style files and further guidelines for formatting can be found at:
