------ Apologies for multiple copies ------ VSTTE 2010: Workshops on Theories, Tools and Experiments Edinburgh, Scotland, 19th August 2010 (*** only 1 week to go! *****) The Third International Conference on Verified Software: Theories, Tools, and Experiments (VSTTE) is part of the Verified Software Initiative (VSI), a fifteen-year, cooperative, international project directed at the scientific challenges of large-scale software verification. VSTTE will host two workshops: * VS-Theory focuses on theoretical foundations of software verification. Topics range from the difficult and essential study of soundness of delicate proof methods, to the discovery of new specification techniques and proof methods, to dramatic simplification or unification of existing methods, to as yet unknown breakthroughs. * VS-Tools & Experiments focuses on the development of verification tools and their experimental evaluation. Topics include interfaces between tools, tool integration platforms, and case studies. The workshops will provide a forum to present new, possibly unfinished work and will also give the opportunity to propose research challenges, which will help form a research agenda for the Verified Software Initiative. For further details, see the workshop web site: http://www.macs.hw.ac.uk/vstte10/Workshops.html Submissions Papers must be written in English using Springer LNCS style. The page limit is 10 pages for technical papers and 5 pages for proposals of verification challenges. The proceedings will be published as a technical report. Details on the submission process are available at http://www.macs.hw.ac.uk/vstte10/Workshops.html.
