[DEADLINES EXTENDED] [Apologizes for duplicates] 14th International Conference on Runtime Verification September 22 - 25, 2014 *Toronto, Canada*
http://rv2014.imag.fr/ <http://rv2014.imag.fr/images/CfP.pdf> Scope: Runtime verification is concerned with monitoring and analysis of software and hardware system executions. Runtime verification techniques are crucial for system correctness, reliability, and robustness; they are significantly more powerful and versatile than conventional testing, and more practical than exhaustive formal verification. Runtime verification can be used prior to deployment, for testing, verification, and debugging purposes, and after deployment for ensuring reliability, safety, and security and for providing fault containment and recovery as well as online system repair. Topics of interest to the conference include: - specification languages - specification mining - program instrumentation - monitor construction techniques - logging, recording, and replay - fault detection, localization, containment, recovery and repair - program steering and adaptation - metrics and statistical information gathering - combination of static and dynamic analyses - program execution visualization - monitoring techniques for safety/mission-critical systems - monitoring distributed systems, cloud services, and big data applications - monitoring security and privacy policies Application areas of runtime verification include safety/mission-critical systems, enterprise and systems software, autonomous and reactive control systems, health management and diagnosis systems, and system security and privacy. Technical Research Papers Track: Technical research papers can be submitted in two categories: regular and short papers. Papers in both categories will be reviewed by the conference Program Committee. All accepted technical papers will appear in an LNCS<http://www.springer.com/series/558> volume. Submitted papers must use the LNCS style<http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0>. At least one author of each accepted paper must attend RV'14 to present the paper. Papers must be submitted electronically using the EasyChair<https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rv2014> system. - *Regular papers* (up to 15 pages) should present original unpublished results. Theoretical and experimental papers as well as papers on applications of runtime verification and case studies are all welcome. A non-monetary Best Paper Award will be given. A selection of accepted regular papers will be invited to appear in a special issue of the Springer Journal on Formal Methods in System Design. - *Short papers* (up to 5 pages) may present novel but not necessarily thoroughly worked out ideas, for example emerging runtime verification techniques and applications, or techniques and applications that establish relationships between runtime verification and other domains. Accepted short papers will be presented in special short talk (10 minutes) and poster sessions.

Tool demonstration papers will be reviewed by the Tools Track Program Committee. All accepted tool demonstration papers will appear in the conference proceedings LNCS volume. Submitted papers must use the LNCS style. At least one author of each accepted paper must attend RV'14 to present the paper. Papers must be submitted electronically using the EasyChair<https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rv2014> system. Tool papers should meet the following criteria: - A tool paper should present a new tool, a new tool component or novel extensions to existing tools supporting runtime verification. Each submission should be original and not published previously in a tool paper form. - Each submission must not exceed 8 pages in the LNCS/Springer proceeding format, including all text, references and figures. The paper must be written in English and provided in PDF format. - Each submission must be accompanied at the time of the submission by a short screencast (between 5-10 minutes), with voice and overlay text commentary illustrating the demonstration of the tool (a link to it should be provided in the paper). - The paper must include information on tool availability, maturity, selected experimental results and it should provide a link to a website containing the theoretical background and user guide. Furthermore, we strongly encourage authors to make their tools and benchmarks available with their submission. - Each tool paper must include a script in an appendix (not included in the page count) describing how the demo will be conducted during the conference presentation with screenshots presenting step-by-step the tool's capabilities, highlighting the main characteristics and the usage. Evaluation Each submission will be reviewed by at least four members of the tool demonstration track program committee. The evaluation criteria will include: - the presentation quality - the availability (possibly in a open-source format) of the software. - the relevance for the Runtime Verification audience - the technical soundness of the presented tool - the originality of the underlying ideas Tool Demonstration Committee Ezio Bartocci, (TU-Vienna, Austria), *chair* Alastair Donaldson (Imperial College London, UK) Dawson Engler (Stanford University, USA) Yliès Falcone (Université Joseph Fourier, France) Klaus Havelund (NASA/JPL, USA) Michael Whalen (University of Minnesota, USA) Important Dates: Both research papers and tool demonstration tracks will follow the following timeline: - *Abstract deadline:* April 18, 2014 (extended) - *Full paper deadline:* April 25, 2014 (extended) - *Rebuttal phase:* May 18-20, 2014 - *Acceptance notification:* June 10, 2014 - *Camera ready submission:* June 25, 2014 - *Conference dates:* 22-25 September, 2014
