The 9. International Conference on Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems (TACAS) 2003
Topics
- Specification and verification techniques
- Theorem-proving and model-checking
- System construction and transformation techniques
- Static and run-time analysis
- Compositional and refinement-based methodologies
- Testing and test-case generation
- Analytical techniques for real-time, hybrid and safety-critical systems
- Tool environments and tool architectures
- Applications and case studies
Submissions
As with other ETAPS conferences, TACAS accepts two types of contributions:
- Research papers (up to 15 pages) cover one or more of the topics above, including tool development and case studies from a perspective of scientific research. Research papers are evaluated by the TACAS Program Committee. See http://www.cis.ksu.edu/tacas03 for submission details.
- Tool demonstration papers (up to 4 pages) present tools based on aforementioned technologies (e.g., theorem-proving, model-checking, static analysis, or other formal methods) or fall into the above application areas (e.g., system construction and transformation, testing, analysis of real-time and hybrid systems, etc.). Tool demonstration papers are evaluated by the TACAS Tool User:Curator 83air with the help of the Program Committee. See http://vasy.inria.fr/tacas03/tool.html for submission details.
Both types of contributions will appear in the proceedings and be allocated thirty-minute slots during the conference.
In brief, submitted papers must:
- be in English
- present original research which is unpublished and not submitted elsewhere
- use the Springer-Verlag LNCS style (see http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html)
- be submitted electronically in Postscript/PDF format
Submissions deviating from these instructions may be rejected without review. Any question regarding this policy should be directed to the Conference Co-chairs prior to submission.
