The challenges of software efficiency and correctness are key for the majority of knowledge-intensive industries in modern economy, including IT, financial sector, transportation, medicine, high-tech industries, and many others. The development of new instruments and methods of complex process analysis as well as the modification of existing ones is one of the necessary prerequisites to introduce innovation.
The purpose of the conference is promoting cutting edge innovations in software testing, modeling and analysis.

The program will include, but won’t be limited to, the following topics:

● AI and machine learning in software testing;
● data driven software testing;
● high-load and high-availability systems;
● process mining;
● static program analysis and verification;
● system log analysis;
● testing and analysis of parallel and distributed systems;
● tools for software analysis, testing and verification;
● vizualization of complex data.

*Key Dates*

● 24th August – deadline for papers;
● 30th September – list of accepted papers is published;
● *10th October – deadline for poster applications*;
● 7rd-9th November – TMPA-2019 Conference.
