==== ACM Symposium on Applied Computing ====

The ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC) has gathered scientists
from different areas of computing over the last thirty years. The forum
gives participants an opportunity to interact with different communities sharing
an interest in applied computing.

SAC 2024 is sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Applied
Computing (SIGAPP), and will take place on April 8-12, 2024 in Avila, Spain.

==== Software Verification and Testing Track (SVT) ====

The Software Verification and Testing track aims to contribute to the
challenge of improving the usability of formal methods in software
engineering. The track covers areas such as formal methods for
verification and testing, based on theorem proving, model checking,
static analysis, and run-time verification. We invite authors to submit
new results in formal verification and testing, as well as development
of technologies to improve the usability of formal methods in software
engineering. We also welcome detailed descriptions of applications of
mechanical verification to large scale software.

==== Topics ====

Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

* model checking
* theorem proving
* correct by construction development
* model-based testing
* software testing
* symbolic execution
* static and dynamic analysis
* abstract interpretation
* analysis methods for dependable systems
* software certification and proof carrying code
* fault diagnosis and debugging
* verification and validation of large scale software systems
* real-world applications and case studies applying software testing
and verification
* benchmarks and data sets for software testing and verification

==== Submission Guidelines ====

Paper submissions must report on original, unpublished work. Submitted
papers will undergo a double-blind review process. Author(s) name(s)
and address(es) must not appear in the body of the paper, and self-
reference should be avoided and made in the third person. We welcome
research papers and posters. Research papers should have at most 8
two-column pages in ACM format (further two pages, to a total of 10
pages, may be available at a charge). The length of a poster is limited
to three pages (one extra page may be available at a charge). Please
comply to this page limit already at submission time.

Furthermore, in the context of the Student Research Competition (SRC)
Program to provide graduate students the opportunity to meet and
exchange ideas with researchers and practitioners in their areas of
interest, graduate students are invited to submit research abstracts
(maximum of 4 pages in ACM camera-ready format) following the
instructions published at the SAC 2024 website.
Last year's example can be found here: https://www.sigapp.org/sac/sac2023/authorkit/ACM_SigConf-SRC2023.pdf.
Submission of the same abstract to multiple tracks is not allowed.

Accepted papers will be published in the ACM SAC 2024 proceedings in the
ACM digital library. Paper registration is required, allowing the
inclusion of the paper/poster in the conference proceedings. An author
or a proxy attending SAC MUST present the paper. This is a requirement
for the paper/poster to be included in the ACM digital library. No-show
of registered papers and posters will result in excluding them from the
ACM digital library.
