***************************************************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS - GandALF 2015 ***************************************************************************************************** The Sixth International Symposium on Games, Automata, Logics and Formal Verification will take place in Genoa, Italy, from September 21 to 23. Web page: http://gandalf2015.dibris.unige.it [1] The aim of the symposium is to bring together researchers from academia and industry which are actively working in the fields of Games, Automata, Logics, and Formal Verification. The symposium covers an ample spectrum of themes, ranging from theory to applications, and encourages cross-fertilization. Papers focused on formal methods are especially welcome. Authors are invited to submit original research or tool papers on all relevant topics in these areas. Papers discussing new ideas that are at an early stage of development are also welcome. Topics of Interest The topics covered by the conference include, but are not limited to, the following: Automata Theory Automated Deduction Computational aspects of Game Theory Concurrency and Distributed computation Decision Procedures Deductive, Compositional, and Abstraction Techniques for Verification Finite Model Theory First-order and Higher-order Logics Formal Languages Formal Methods for Systems Biology, Hybrid, Embedded, and Mobile Systems Games and Automata for Verification Game Semantics Logical aspects of Computational Complexity Logics of Programs Modal and Temporal Logics Model Checking Models of Reactive and Real-Time Systems Program Analysis and Software Verification Run-time Verification and Testing Specification and Verification of Finite and Infinite-state Systems Synthesis Proceedings The proceedings will be published by Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science. Authors of the best papers will be invited to submit a revised version of their work to an special issue of Acta Informatica. Selected papers from previous editions appeared in special issues of the International Journal of Foundation of Computer Science (GandALF 2010), Theoretical Computer Science (GandALF 2011 and 2012), and Information and Computation (GandALF 2013 and 2014). Invited Speakers To be announced Submissions Submitted papers should not exceed fourteen (14) pages using EPTCS format (please use the LaTeX style provided athttp://style.eptcs.org [2]), be unpublished and contain original research. For papers reporting experimental results, authors are encouraged to make their data available with their submission. Submissions must be in PDF or PS format and will be handled via EasyChair Conference system at the following address: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=gandalf2015 [3] Important dates Abstract submission: May 22 Paper submission: May 29 Notification: July 3 Camera-ready: July 31 Program Committee Parosh Aziz Abdulla, Univ. of Uppsala Sweden Ahmed Bouajjani, LIAFA France Thomas Brihaye, Mons University, Belgium Pavol Cerny, University of Colorado Boulder USA Krishnendu Chatterjee, Inst. of Science and Tech Austria Giorgio Delzanno, University of Genoa Italy Laurent Doyen, LSV France Javier Esparza TU, Munich, Germany (co-chair) Bernd Finkbeiner, Saarbrücken Germany Pierre Ganty, IMDEA, Spain Antonin Kucera, Masaryk University (Brno), Czech Republic K.
