Call for Papers

Aim:
The aim of the INFINITY workshop is to provide a forum for researchers interested in the development of formal methods and algorithmic techniques for the analysis of systems with infinitely many states, and their application in automated verification of complex hardware and software systems.

Topics:
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

  • Infinite-state models of hardware/software systems
  • Abstraction techniques for infinite-state systems
  • Data structures for representing infinite state spaces, symbolic analysis techniques
  • Preorder/equivalence-checking, model-checking, and control synthesis for infinite-state systems
  • Parameterized networks of parallel processes, dynamic networks, mobile systems
  • Systems with dynamic memory, infinite data domains
  • Probabilistic and timed systems
  • Verification techniques for security properties

Important Dates:
Submission deadline: June 11, 2007
Notification: July 10, 2007
Final version: July 17, 2007

Paper submission and publication:
Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract presenting unpublished work in the areas relevant for the scope of INFINITY. The submissions will be evaluated by the program committee and accepted papers will be published in a volume of Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science. By submitting you agree that, in case of acceptance, at least one (co-)author will register and present the paper at the workshop.

Contributions should not exceed 10 pages and ENTCS format of the submission is highly recommended.

Submission instructions:
There are two ways to submit:

  • The prefered way is by web through Easychair. Login to http://www.easychair.org/INFINITY2007/   to submit.

  • If you have problems submitting using the above method, mail your paper in PDF/PS format to madhu at cs dot uiuc dot edu.
