ABOUT
VerifyThis 2022 is a program verification competition taking place as part of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software (ETAPS 2022) on April 2-3, 2022 in Munich, Germany.
It is the 10th event in the VerifyThis competition series.

The competition will offer a number of challenges presented in natural language and pseudo code.
Participants have to formalize the requirements, implement a solution, and formally verify the implementation for adherence to the specification.

There are no restrictions on the programming language and verification technology used.
The correctness properties posed in problems will have the input-output behaviour of programs in focus. Solutions will be judged for correctness, completeness, and elegance.

PARTICIPATION
Participation is open for anybody interested.
Teams of up to two people are allowed.
Registration for ETAPS workshops and physical presence on site is required.

We particularly encourage participation of:
    - student teams (this includes PhD students)
    - non-developer teams using a tool someone else developed
    - several teams using the same tool

TRAVEL GRANTS
The competition has funds for a limited number of travel grants.
A grant covers the incurred travel and accommodation costs up to a certain limit. The expected limit is EUR 350 for those coming from Europe and EUR 600 for those coming from outside Europe.

To apply for a travel grant, send an email to verifythis at googlegroups.com by March 7, 2022. The application should include:
    - your name
    - your affiliation
    - the verification system(s) you plan to use at the competition
    - the planned composition of your team (and whether you are developers of the tools you'll be using)
    - a short letter of motivation explaining your involvement with formal verification so far
    - if you are a student, please state the academic degree you are seeking and have your supervisor send a brief letter of support to verifythis at googlegroups.com
