2nd Call for papers ============================================== 25th Annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing Software Verification and Testing Track March 22 - 26, 2010, Sierre, Switzerland http://www.acm.org/conferences/sac/sac2010/ Important dates * Sep 8th 2009: Submission deadline (strict) * Oct 19th 2009: Notification of acceptance/rejection * Nov 2nd 2009: Camera-ready versions due ACM Symposium on Applied Computing The ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC) has gathered scientists from different areas of computing over the past twenty-four years. The forum represents an opportunity to interact with different communities sharing an interest in applied computing. SAC 2010 is sponsored by SIGAPP and will be hosted by the University of Applied Sciences, Western Switzerland in Sierre, and École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Lausanne. Software Verification and Testing Track We invite authors to submit new results in formal verification and testing, as well as development of technologies to improve the usability of formal methods in software engineering. Also welcome are detailed descriptions of applications of mechanical verification to large scale software. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: - tools and techniques for verification of large scale software systems - real world applications and case studies applying software verification - static and run-time analysis - abstract interpretation - model checking - theorem proving - correct by construction development - model-based testing - verification-based testing - symbolic execution - analysis methods for dependable systems - software certification and proof carrying code Submissions guidelines Paper submissions must be original, unpublished work. Submissions should be in electronic format, via the eCMS site: http://sac.cs.iupui.edu/SAC2010/. Author(s) name(s) and address(es) must not appear in the body of the paper, and self-reference should be avoided and made in the third person. Submitted paper will undergo a blind review process. Authors of accepted papers should submit an editorial revision of their papers that fits within five two-column pages (an extra three pages, to a total of eight pages, may be available at a charge) following the ACM proceedings format reported here: http://www.acm.org/conferences/sac/sac2010/2010_SAC_Word_Template.pdf. Please comply to this page limitation already at submission time. Publication of accepted articles requires the commitment of one of the authors to register for the conference and present the paper. Accepted papers will be published in the ACM SAC 2010 proceedings.
