====== CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
==================================================
24th International Conference on Computer Aided Verification (CAV 2012)
July 7-13, 2012 Berkeley, California, USA
Program Chairs: Madhusudan Parathasarathy and Sanjit A. Seshia
Website: http://cav12.cs.illinois.edu/
Aims and Scope
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The conference on Computer Aided Verification (CAV), 2012, is the 24th in a
series dedicated to the advancement of the theory and practice of
computer-aided
formal analysis methods for hardware and software systems. CAV considers it
vital to continue spurring advances in hardware and software verification
while
expanding to new domains such as biological systems and computer security.
The
conference covers the spectrum from theoretical results to concrete
applications, with an emphasis on practical verification tools and the
algorithms and techniques that are needed for their implementation. The
proceedings of the conference will be published in the Springer-Verlag
Lecture
Notes in Computer Science series. A selection of papers will be invited to a
special issue of Formal Methods in System Design and the Journal of the ACM.
** NEW in 2012 **

CAV will have *special tracks* in the following four areas:
1. Hardware Verification (track chair: Andreas Kuehlmann)
