IMPORTANT DATES

ABOUT
VerifyThis 2019 is a program verification competition taking place as part of 
the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software (ETAPS 2019) 
on April 6-7, 2019 in Prague, Czech Republic.
It is the 8th 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.

2019. The application should include:
    - your name

    - the verification system(s) you plan to use at the competition

the tools you'll be using)
    - a short letter of motivation explaining your involvement with formal
