The 26. International Conference on Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems (TACAS) 2020
Topics
- specification and verification techniques;
- software and hardware verification;
- analytical techniques for real-time, hybrid, or stochastic systems;
- analytical techniques for safety, security, or dependability;
- SAT and SMT solving;
- theorem proving;
- model checking;
- static and dynamic program analysis;
- testing;
- abstraction techniques for modeling and verification;
- compositional and refinement-based methodologies;
- system construction and transformation techniques;
- machine-learning techniques for synthesis and verification;
- tool environments and tool architectures;
- applications and case studies.
Submissions
The four conferences of ETAPS 2020 solicit contributions of the following types. All page limits are given excluding bibliography:
- ESOP: regular research papers of max 25 pp
- FASE: regular research papers and empirical evaluation papers of max 18 pp, tool demonstration papers of max 6 pp + mandatory appendix of max 6 pp
- FoSSaCS: regular research papers of max 18 pp
- TACAS: regular research papers, case study papers and regular tool papers of max 16 pp, tool demonstration papers of max 6 pp
For definitions of the different paper types and specific instructions, where they are present, see the webpages of the individual conferences.
The rationale for exempting the bibliography from the page limit is to remove the possibility to win space for the body of paper by cutting the bibliography, a practice that has a negative effect on our competitiveness as a community.
All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings and have presentations during the conference. A condition of submission is that, if the submission is accepted, one of the authors attends the conference to give the presentation.
Submitted papers must be in English presenting original research. They must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. In particular, simultaneous submission of the same contribution to multiple ETAPS conferences is forbidden.
Submissions must follow the formatting guidelines of Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science and be submitted electronically in pdf through the Easychair author interface of the respective conference. Submissions not adhering to the specified format and length may be rejected immediately.
FASE will use double-blind reviewing. Authors are asked to omit their names and institutions; refer to prior work in the third person, just as prior work by others; not to include acknowledgements that might identify them.
Regular tool paper and tool demonstration paper submissions to TACAS must be accompanied by an artifact. The artifact will be evaluated and the outcome will be taken into account in the acceptance decision of the paper. For research paper and case study paper submissions, concurrent submission of an artifact is optional; if an artifact is submitted at this stage, it will be handled like described in the previous sentence. Alternatively, authors of accepted papers of these categories may submit an artifact after notification.
ESOP and FoSSaCS will use an author rebuttal phase. TACAS will use rebuttal for selected submissions.
