Final call for papers AVoCS 2009 Ninth International Workshop on Automated Verification of Critical Systems http://www.cs.swansea.ac.uk/avocs09/ Swansea, UK, 23.9. - 25.9.2009 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The aim of AVoCS 2009 is to contribute to the interaction and exchange of ideas among members of the international research community on tools and techniques for the verification of critical systems. The subject is to be interpreted broadly and inclusively. It covers all aspects of automated verification, including model checking, theorem proving, abstract interpretation, and refinement pertaining to various types of critical systems (safety-critical, security-critical, business-critical, performance-critical, etc.). Contributions that describe different techniques, or industrial case studies are encouraged. The technical programme will consist of invited talks and contributed talks and will also allow for short presentations of ongoing work. The workshop will be relatively informal, with an emphasis on discussion. Previous AVoCS workshops were held at the University of Oxford (2001 and 2007), the University of Birmingham (2002), the University of Southampton (2003), the Royal Society in London (2004), the University of Warwick (2005), LORIA, Nancy (2006) and the University of Glasgow (2008). TOPICS Typical, but not exclusive topics of interest are: - Model Checking, - Automatic and Interactive Theorem Proving, - Abstract Interpretation, - Specification and Refinement, - Requirements Capture and Analysis, - Verification of Software and Hardware, - Verification of Security-Critical Systems, - Probabilistic and Real-Time Systems, - Verified System Development, and - Industrial Applications. INVITED SPEAKERS - Ulrich Berger, Swansea, United Kingdom: Proofs-as-programs in computable analysis. - Christoph Lueth, Bremen, Germany: User Interfaces for Theorem Provers. PUBLICATIONS At the workshop, a draft of the workshop proceedings will be available in the form of a Technical Report of Swansea University; this report will also include the short contributions. After the workshop, the authors of accepted papers will have about one month in order to revise their papers for publication in the workshop proceedings which will appear in the Electronic Communications of the EASST http://eceasst.cs.tu-berlin.de/index.php/eceasst. The authors of a selection of the best papers presented at the workshop will be invited to submit extended versions of their work for publication in a special issue of Elsevier's journal Science of Computer Programming http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/505623/description (Guest editor: Markus Roggenbach).

All submissions will be peer-reviewed and judged on the basis of originality, contribution to the field, technical and presentation quality, and relevance to the workshop. Papers must be written in English and not exceed 15 pages (excluding the title page) in the LaTeX EASST format available at the AVoCS09 website. Submission via easychair is now open under: https://www.easychair.org/login.cgi?iid=11542 SUBMISSION OF SHORT CONTRIBUTIONS AVoCS 2009 encourages the submissions of short contributions in order to stimulate discussions at the workshop. Reports on ongoing work or surveys on work published elsewhere are welcome. The Programme Committee will select short contributions on the basis of submitted abstracts according to significance and general interest. Short contributions must be written in English and not exceed 2 pages (excluding the title page) in the EASST format. Short contributions will be included in the Technical Report available at the conference, however, they will not be part of the Workshop Proceedings published by EASST. Submission will be organized via easychair. LOCATION AND ACCOMMODATION AVoCS 2009 will be organised by Swansea University and held at the conference centre Gregynog. Gregynog is situated six miles north of Newtown in Mid Wales. It is surrounded by the beautiful Montgomeryshire countryside and Gregynog Hall is set in fabulously landscaped gardens that provide extensive grounds for peace and relaxation.
