SCOPE AND MISSION

    The International Conference on Theory and Applications of
    Satisfiability Testing SAT is the primary annual meeting for
    researchers studying the propositional satisfiability problem. SAT
    2010 is the thirteenth SAT conference. SAT 2010 features the SAT
    Race, the Pseudo-Boolean evaluation, and the MAX-SAT evaluation.

    Many hard combinatorial problems can be encoded into SAT. Therefore
    improvements on heuristics on the practical side, as well as
    theoretical insights into SAT, apply to a large range of real-world
    problems. More specifically, many important practical verification
    problems can be rephrased as SAT problems. This applies to
    verification problems in hardware and software. Thus SAT is becoming
    one of the most important core technologies to verify secure and
    dependable systems. The topics of the conference span practical and
    theoretical research on SAT and its applications, and include, but
    are not limited to:

    * Proof Systems and Proof Complexity
    * Search Algorithms and Heuristics
    * Analysis of Algorithms
    * Combinatorial Theory of Satisfiability
    * Random Instances vs Structured Instances
    * Problem Encodings
    * Industrial Applications
    * Applications to Combinatorics
    * Solvers, Simplifiers and Tools
    * Case Studies and Empirical Results
    * Exact and Parameterized Algorithms

    SAT is interpreted in a rather broad sense: besides propositional
    satisfiability, it includes the domain of quantified boolean
    formulae (QBF), constraints programming techniques (CSP) for
    word-level problems and their propositional encoding and
    particularly satisfiability modulo theories (SMT).

SUBMISSIONS

    Paper submissions should contain original material and can either be
    regular research papers up to 14 pages or short papers up to 6
    pages. Submitted papers may include a technical appendix in addition
    to the page restriction; however, the paper must be intelligible
    without the appendix and PC members are not required to read the
    appendix.  Regular papers may be accepted as short papers, by
    decision of the program committee.  Double submissions including
    submissions as short and long papers will be rejected.  Submissions
    should use the Springer LNCS style (see
    www.springer.com/comp/lncs/Authors.html).  All tables, figures and
    the bibliography must fit into the page limit. Appendices that the
    author considers as part of the final submission should fit in the
    page limit as well.  Submissions deviating from these requirements
    may be rejected without review.  All accepted papers including short
    papers will be published in the proceedings of the conference, which
    are expected to be published in Springer's LNCS series.  The
    submission page is www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sat10.
    Papers have to be submitted electronically as PDF files.
