RV 2016
Date: Sep 23, 2016 12:00 am – Sep 30, 2016 11:00 am
Location: Madrid, Spain
16th International Conference on Runtime Verification (RV 2016)
Scope
Runtime verification is concerned with monitoring and analysis of software and hardware system executions. Runtime verification techniques are crucial for system correctness, reliability, and robustness; they are significantly more powerful and versatile than conventional testing, and more practical than exhaustive formal verification. Runtime verification can be used prior to deployment, for testing, verification, and debugging purposes, and after deployment for ensuring reliability, safety, and security and for providing fault containment and recovery as well as online system repair.
Topics of interest to the conference include:
- specification languages
- specification mining
- program instrumentation
- monitor construction techniques
- logging, recording, and replay
- runtime enforcement, fault detection, localization, containment, recovery and repair
- program steering and adaptation
- metrics and statistical information gathering
- combination of static and dynamic analyses
- program execution visualization
- monitoring techniques for safety/mission-critical systems
- monitoring distributed systems, cloud services, and big data applications
- monitoring security and privacy policies
Application areas of runtime verification include cyber-physical systems, safety/mission-critical systems, enterprise and systems software, autonomous and reactive control systems, health management and diagnosis systems, and system security and privacy.
Invited Speakers
The program of RV 2016 will feature invited talks from:
- Gul Agha (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA)
- Oded Maler (CNRS and University of Grenoble-Alpes, France)
- Fred B. Schneider (Cornell University, USA)
Overview
RV 2016 will be held September 23-30 in Madrid, Spain. RV 2016 will feature the first summer school on Runtime Verification (September 23-25), two workshop days (September 26-25), and three conference days (September 28-30).
General Information on Submissions
All papers and tutorials will appear in the conference proceedings in an LNCS volume. Submitted papers and tutorials must use the LNCS/Springer style. At least one author of each accepted paper and tutorial must attend RV 2016 to present the paper. Papers must be written in English and submitted electronically (in PDF format) using the EasyChair system. The below page limitations include all text and figures, but exclude references. Additional details omitted due to space limitations may be included in a clearly marked appendix that will be reviewed at the discretion of reviewers.
