ANNOUNCEMENT AND PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS
ATVA 2006
Fourth International Symposium on
Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis
Beijing, China, 23-26 October 2006
http://lcs.ios.ac.cn/~atva06/
===================================================
ATVA 2006 is the fourth 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. Submissions reporting original contributions are solicited in all
areas of automated verification and analysis.

SCOPE
The scope of interest is intentionally kept broad; it includes:
(1) 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.
(2) 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.
PUBLICATION
Following ATVA 2004 (LNCS 3299) and ATVA 2005 (LNCS 3707), we are likely
to publish the proceedings in the Springer LNCS series.
We also plan a special issue in an established journal for selected
papers. A special issue of IJFCS (International Journal of Foundations of
Computer Science, http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/~ijfcs/) consisting of invited
papers and selected contributed papers from ATVA 2003 and ATVA 2004
has been organized.
