[Caml-list] CAV Call for Papers

Call for Papers
27th International Conference on
Computer Aided Verification (CAV 2015)
July 18-24 2015, San Francisco, California
http://i-cav.org/2015/

Aims and Scope

CAV 2015 is the 27th 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
spurring advances in hardware and software verification while expanding
to new domains such as biological systems and computer security. 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 LNCS
series. A selection of papers will be invited to a special issue of
Formal Methods in System Design and the Journal of the ACM.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Algorithms and tools for verifying models and implementations
* Hardware verification techniques
* Deductive, compositional, and abstraction techniques for verification
* Program analysis and software verification
* Verification methods for parallel and concurrent hardware/software systems
* Testing and run-time analysis based on verification technology
* Applications and case studies in verification
* Decision procedures and solvers for verification
* Mathematical and logical foundations of practical verification tools
* Verification in industrial practice
* Algorithms and tools for system synthesis
* Hybrid systems and embedded systems verification
* Verification techniques for security
* Formal models and methods for biological systems

Paper Submission

Submissions should contain original research and sufficient detail to
assess the merits and relevance of the contribution. We welcome papers
on theory, case studies and comparisons with existing experimental
research, tool papers, as well as combinations of new theory with
experimental evaluation. Similar to last year, we welcome both long tool
papers and short papers of any kind.

Tool papers should describe system and implementation aspects of a tool
with a large (potential) user base (experiments not required, rehash of
theory strongly discouraged). Papers describing tools that have already
been presented (in any conference) will be accepted only if significant
and clear enhancements to the tool are reported and implemented.

Submissions reporting on case studies in an industrial context are
strongly invited, and should describe details, weaknesses, and strengths
in sufficient depth. Papers reproducing and comparing existing results
experimentally do not require new theoretical insights. Examples of
contributions of such papers are evaluations of existing results in a
superior experimental setting and comparisons of methods that have not
previously been thoroughly experimentally compared.

Papers can be submitted in either a regular or a short format.

* Regular Papers should not exceed 15 pages in LNCS format, not
counting references.

* Short Papers should not exceed 6 pages, not counting references.
Short papers are encouraged for any subject that can be described within
the page limit, and in particular for novel ideas without an extensive
experimental evaluation. Accepted short papers will be accompanied by
short presentations.

An appendix can provide additional material such as details on proofs or
experiments. The appendix is not guaranteed to be read or taken into
account by the reviewers and it should not contain information necessary
for the understanding and the evaluation of the presented work. Papers
will be accepted or rejected in the category in which they were
submitted, there will be no demotions from a regular to a short paper.

Simultaneous submission to other conferences with proceedings or
submission of material that has already been published elsewhere is not
allowed.

The review process will include a feedback/rebuttal period where authors
will have the option to respond to reviewer comments. The PC chairs may
solicit further reviews after the rebuttal period.

Papers must be submitted in PDF format. Submission is done via EasyChair.

Deadlines

Deadlines are anywhere on earth

* Abstract submission: January 30 2015
* Paper submission (firm): February 6 2015
* Author feedback/rebuttal period: March 23-26 2015

CALL FOR PAPERS

26th SYMPOSIUM ON IMPLEMENTATION AND APPLICATION OF FUNCTIONAL LANGUAGES - IFL 2014

NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY/BOSTON, USA

OCTOBER 1-3, 2014

http://ifl2014.github.io

We are pleased to announce that the 26th edition of the IFL series
will be held at Northeastern University in Boston, USA. The symposium
will be held from 1st to 3rd of October 2014.

Scope
-----

The goal of the IFL symposia is to bring together researchers actively
engaged in the implementation and application of functional and
function-based programming languages. IFL 2014 will be a venue for
researchers to present and discuss new ideas and concepts, work in
progress, and publication-ripe results related to the implementation
and application of functional languages and function-based
programming.

Following the IFL tradition, IFL 2014 will use a post-symposium review
process to produce the formal proceedings. All participants of IFL
2014 are invited to submit either a draft paper or an extended
abstract describing work to be presented at the symposium. At no time
may work submitted to IFL be simultaneously submitted to other venues;
submissions must adhere to ACM SIGPLAN's republication policy:

http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication

The submissions will be screened by the program committee chair to
make sure they are within the scope of IFL, and will appear in the
draft proceedings distributed at the symposium. Submissions appearing
in the draft proceedings are not peer-reviewed publications. Hence,
publications that appear only in the draft proceedings do not count as
publication for the ACM SIGPLAN republication policy. After the
symposium, authors will be given the opportunity to incorporate the
feedback from discussions at the symposium and will be invited to
submit a revised full article for the formal review process. From the
revised submissions, the program committee will select papers for the
formal proceedings considering their correctness, novelty,
originality, relevance, significance, and clarity.

Submission Details
------------------

Submission deadline draft papers: September 8
Notification of acceptance for presentation: September 10
Early registration deadline: September 11
