(Please refer https://persons.iis.nsk.su/en/pssv2020 for more information 
about speakers and abstracts.) 

In addition to academic invited talks (already announced on this page), 
there will be one invited industrial talk from Leading Research Center for 
Blockchain Technology of Innopolis University, which will be presented by 
Leonid Merkin.

PSSV-2020 will host a panel discussion on (experimental and industrial) 
contemporary programming languages. Andrey Breslav (JetBrains), Aleksei 
Nedoria (Huawei), Antony Polukhin (Yandex), Alexey Nezvanov (The Hight 
School of Economics) and Evgene Zouev, Alexey Kanatov and Nikolai Kudasov 
(Innopolis University) have confirmed their participation as panelists.

All accepted papers will be published before the workshop (format and 
venue TBD) Selected revised and extended papers have been published after 
the workshop in Russian peer-review journal Modeling and Analysis of 
Information Systems (https://www.mais-journal.ru). We expect (as it was in 
the previous years of the PSSV) that English translations of some of these 
selected papers will appear next year in Automatic Control and Computer 
Sciences(http://www.springer.com/computer/hardware/journal/11950) (indexed 
by WoS and Scopus).

Forthcoming important dates:
* short submissions (abstracts of work in progress, position papers and posters) - October 12(start)-19(end), 2020;
* notification for ALL submissions - October 26, 2020;
* final versions of regular research submissions (for pre-proceedings) - October 31, 2020;
* worksop - November 3-4, 2020;
* invitations of selected talks to post proceedings - November 5, 2020;
* papers for the post-proceeding - November 15, 2020;
* notification for the post-proceedings papers - soon after November 15, 2020.
