Call for Papers FTSCS 2022 8th International Workshop on Formal Techniques for Safety-Critical Systems Auckland, New Zealand, December 7, 2022 (an OOPSLA/SPLASH 2022 workshop) https://2022.splashcon.org/home/ftscs-2022 --------------------------------------------------------------------- *** Submission Deadline: FINAL EXTENSION to September 11 *** *** ACM Digital Library proceedings *** *** Science of Computer Programming special issue *** Aims and Scope: There is an increasing demand for using formal methods to validate and verify safety-critical systems in fields such as power generation and distribution, avionics, automotive systems, medical systems, and autonomous vehicles. In particular, newer standards, such as DO-178C (avionics), ISO 26262 (automotive systems), IEC 62304 (medical devices), and CENELEC EN 50128 (railway systems), emphasize the need for formal methods and model-based development, thereby speeding up the adaptation of such methods in industry. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers who are interested in the application of formal and semi-formal methods to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems. FTSCS strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in industrial applications of formal methods. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: * case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods for analyzing safety-critical systems, including avionics, automotive, medical, railway, and other kinds of safety-critical and QoS-critical systems * methods, techniques and tools to support automated analysis, certification, debugging, etc., of safety/QoS-critical systems * analysis methods that address the limitations of formal methods in industry (usability, scalability, etc.) * formal analysis support for modeling languages used in industry, such as AADL, Ptolemy, SysML, SCADE, Modelica, etc. * code generation from validated models. The workshop will provide a platform for discussions and the exchange of innovative ideas, so submissions on work in progress are encouraged. Submission: We solicit submissions reporting on: A- original research contributions (10 pages max, ACM format); B- applications and experiences (10 pages max, ACM format); C- surveys, comparisons, and state-of-the-art reports (10 pages max, ACM); D- tool papers (5 pages max, ACM format); E- position papers and work in progress (5 pages max, ACM format) related to the topics mentioned above. (The page limits do not include the references.) All submissions must be original, unpublished, and not submitted concurrently for publication elsewhere. Paper submission is done via HotCRP at https://ftscs-2022.hotcrp.com/. Submissions should be prepared in LaTeX, adhering to the ACM format available at https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template using the "sigplan" option. Publication: All accepted papers will appear in the pre-proceedings of FTSCS 2022. Accepted papers in the categories A-D above will appear in the workshop proceedings that will be published as a volume in the ACM Digital Library. The authors of a selected subset of accepted papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers to appear in a special issue of the Science of Computer Programming journal. Important dates: Submission deadline: September 1, 2022, extended to September 11 (final) Notification of acceptance: October 10, 2022 Workshop: December 7, 2022 Venue: Auckland, New Zealand Program chairs: Cyrille Artho KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden Peter Olveczky University of Oslo, Norway Program committee: Etienne Andre University Paris 13, France Cyrille Artho KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden Kyungmin Bae Pohang University of Science and Technology, Korea Armin Biere Albert-Ludwigs-University Freiburg, Germany David Broman KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden Marie Farrell Maynooth University, Ireland Adrian Francalanza University of Malta, Malta Dimitra Giannakopoulou NASA Ames Research Center, USA Rob van Glabbeek University of New South Wales, Australia Sabine Glesner Technical University of Berlin, Germany Lindsay Groves Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand Osman Hasan National University of Sciences & Technology, Pakistan Fuyuki Ishikawa National Institute of Informatics, Japan Robi Malik University of Waikato, New Zealand Frederic Mallet University of Cote d'Azur, France Lina Marsso University of Toronto, Canada Roberto Nardone University of Naples "Parthenope", Italy Thomas Noll RWTH Aachen University, Germany Carlos Olarte University Sorbonne Paris, France Peter Olveczky University of Oslo, Norway Kazuhiro Ogata Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Japan Catuscia Palamidessi Inria, France David Pearce ConsenSys, New Zealand Markus Roggenbach Swansea University, UK Martina Seidl Johannes Kepler University, Austria Elena Sherman Boise State University, USA Jing Sun University of Auckland, New Zealand Sofiene Tahar Concordia University, Canada Carolyn Talcott SRI International, USA Huibiao Zhu East China Normal University, China |
