ABZ 2018
6th International ABZ (ASM, Alloy, B, TLA, VDM, Z) Conference
June 5th-8th, 2018
Southampton, UK
www.southampton.ac.uk/abz2018 <http://www.southampton.ac.uk/abz2018>
The ABZ conference is dedicated to the cross-fertilization of six related
state-based and machine-based formal methods, Abstract State Machines (ASM),
Alloy, B, TLA, VDM and Z, that share a common conceptual foundation and are
widely used in both academia and industry for the design and analysis of
hardware and software systems.

ABZ 2018 will have a main conference track, a case study track, tutorials and
workshops.

-----------------------
Call For Papers
-----------------------
Four kinds of contributions are invited:

•    Full Research papers: full papers of not more than 14 pages in LNCS
format, which have to be original, unpublished and not submitted elsewhere.
•    Short presentations of work in progress, and tool demonstrations: This is
an excellent opportunity for Ph.D. students to present and validate their work
in progress. An extended abstract of not more than 4 pages is expected and
will be reviewed.
•    Answers to case study papers: full papers of not more than 14 pages in
LNCS format reporting on the experiments conducted with any of the state based
techniques in the scope of ABZ 2014.
•    Application in industry papers: reporting on work or experiences on the
application of state based formal methods in industry. An extended abstract of
not more than 4 pages is expected and will be reviewed. It is also an
interesting option for industrial practitioners who sometimes face too many
constraints to prepare a full paper.

Accepted papers will appear in the Springer LNCS proceedings. See here
<https://www.southampton.ac.uk/abz2018/call-for-contributions.page?> for
submission details. The deadline for abstract submission is January 29, 2018
and for paper submission is February 5, 2018.

Data entirely hand-typed, one call for papers at a time. There is no scraper behind any of this: I read the announcement and type the dates in, in the gaps between other work, and with the hope it is useful to others. Organisers then move deadlines without telling anyone, calls get edited in place, and now and then the typing is simply wrong. Treat this as a well-meaning notebook rather than an authority, and check the conference’s own page before you submit anything you care about.
