SPIN 2014 - 21st International SPIN Symposium on Model Checking of Software

21st International Symposium on Model Checking Software - SPIN 2014
San Jose, CA, USA, July 21-23, 2014
http://spin2014.org/
SPIN 2014 is co-located with International Symposium on Software Testing and Analysis (ISSTA 2014). SPIN and ISSTA will hold joint sessions on July 23rd and ISSTA will continue until July 25. Reduced registration will be available for those attending all or part of both symposiums.
Aim and Scope:
The SPIN Symposium is a forum for practitioners and researchers interested in software verification and engineering. There are two tracks for paper submissions.
Software Verification Track: Theoretical techniques, novel algorithms and empirical evaluation for state-space exploration based techniques. We welcome submissions describing the development and application of state space exploration techniques in testing and verifying embedded software, mobile platforms, security-critical software, enterprise and web applications, and other interesting software platforms.
Software Engineering Track: Techniques and approaches that extend or leverage existing state-space exploration based techniques such as model checking and symbolic execution to assist in automating software engineering tasks such as design, implementation, analysis, testing, and maintenance of software systems.
Submission Guidelines:
SPIN 2014 invites high quality contributions describing significant, original, and unpublished results for submission in two categories:
Research papers describing fully developed work and complete results (10 pages)
Short papers describing tools, experience reports, descriptions of new ideas, or work in progress with preliminary results (4 pages)
The submitted papers should be in the ACM format. All accepted papers will be included in the proceedings and will appear in the ACM digital library. At least one author of each accepted paper must attend the symposium and present the paper.
Papers submitted to SPIN 2014 should not have been previously published and must not be under review for publication elsewhere. All papers that conform to submission guidelines will be peer-reviewed by members of the program committee. Submissions will be evaluated on the basis of originality, importance of contribution, soundness, evaluation, quality of presentation, and appropriate comparison to related work.
