                                 First Call for Papers

                         Games in Design and Verification

                                     GDV 2005

                        Workshop co-located with CAV 2005
                            Edinburgh, Scotland, UK
                                 July 18, 2005

    The goal of the GDV 2004 workshop is to bring together researchers
    interested in the application of game theory to system design,
    analysis, and verification. Games provide a model for interaction
    that has found many applications both in the theory of systems
    (semantics of programming languages, semantics of interaction) and
    in the practice of system design (controller synthesis, modular
    verification, security analysis). This workshop aims at covering a
    spectrum from theoretical results to concrete applications.
    The topics of interest include:

      * Games and component-based design and verification
      * Games as models for component interaction
      * Game theory in semantics
      * Games for control and scheduler synthesis
      * Logics for games
      * Algorithms for solving games
      * Games in artificial intelligence and machine learning
      * Game models in the design and verification of distributed systems
      * Games in the design of multi-agent systems
