Concerning COVID-19
The Program Chairs and the Steering Committee of SEFM 2020 are fully aware
that the COVID-19 crisis may require the organisation of alternatives to
the scheduled physical conference events, following the recommendations
of relevant national and international bodies, such as the World Health
Organization. Such possible alternative scenarios include the possibility
of remote paper presentations or a full electronic organisation of the
conference.
Any measures taken will be communicated via the SEFM website and via emails
to the authors and the PC.
OVERVIEW AND SCOPE
SEFM aims to bring together leading researchers and practitioners
from academia, industry, and government, to advance the state of
the art in formal methods, to facilitate their uptake in the
software industry, and to encourage their integration within
practical software engineering methods and tools.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following
aspects of software engineering and formal methods:
# Software Development Methods
- Formal modeling, specification, and design
- Software evolution, maintenance, re-engineering, and reuse
# Design Principles
- Programming languages
- Domain-specific languages
- Type theory
- Abstraction and refinement
# Software Testing, Validation, and Verification
- Model checking, theorem proving, and decision procedures
- Testing and runtime verification
- Statistical and probabilistic analysis
- Synthesis
- Performance estimation and analysis of other non-functional
properties
- Other light-weight and scalable formal methods
# Security and Safety
- Security, privacy, and trust
- Safety-critical, fault-tolerant, and secure systems
- Software certification
# Applications and Technology Transfer
- Service-oriented and cloud computing systems, Internet of Things
- Component, object, multi-agent and self-adaptive systems
- Real-time, hybrid, and cyber-physical systems
- Intelligent systems and machine learning
- HCI, interactive systems, and human error analysis
- Education
# Case studies, best practices, and experience reports
PAPER SUBMISSION
We solicit two categories of papers:
- Regular papers describing original research results, case studies,
or surveys. Regular papers should not exceed 15 pages, excluding
bibliography.
- Tool papers that describe an operational tool and its
contributions. Tool papers should not exceed 6 pages (including
bibliography) and should include the URL of the tool.
All submissions must be original, unpublished, and not submitted
concurrently for publication elsewhere. Paper submission is done
via EasyChair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sefm2020
Papers must be formatted according to the guidelines for Springer
LNCS papers (see http://www.springer.com/lncs).
PUBLICATION
All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of the conference
that will be published as a volume in the Formal Methods sublime of
the Springer's LNCS series.
The authors of a selected subset of accepted papers will be invited
to submit extended versions of their papers to a journal special
issue.
