==  FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS ==

1st International Workshop on Formal to Practical Software Verification and 
Composition (VeryComp 2016)

Co-located event of STAF 2016 (http://staf2016.conf.tuwien.ac.at/) 
Wien, Austria - July 4th 2016

Web site: verycomp2016.disim.univaq.it

== IMPORTANT DATES ==

Paper submissions: April 18, 2016
Notification of authors: May 25, 2016
Camera-ready copies: June 20, 2016

== THEMES AND OBJECTIVES ==

Nowadays, modern applications are increasingly realized as distributed systems 
composing existing pieces of software that autonomically cooperates to achieve 
a common goal. As a matter of fact, this calls for new software composition 
paradigms, and patterns, modeling and verification methods that are practical 
and usable on one hand and formal on the other. Despite the great interest in 
practical Software Composition and Formal Verification in their isolation, no 
common and integrated approaches have been established yet. VeryComp promotes 
contributions related to the subject at different levels: from modelling and 
verification to analysis, from componentization to composition. Foundational 
contributions as well as concrete application experiments are sought.

VeryComp 2016 welcomes research papers, experience papers and tool 
presentations; nevertheless, papers describing novel research contributions and 
innovative applications are of particular interest. Details on workshop goals 
and themes can be found at: http://verycomp2016.disim.univaq.it

All accepted papers will be published as part of a Springer LNCS Proceedings 
Volume (Lecture Notes in Computer Science): http://www.springer.com/lncs

Furthermore, selected participants will be invited to submit an extended 
version of their papers after the workshop to a Thematic Series of the Springer 
JISA journal on Verification and Composition for the Internet of Services and 
Things (to appear soon on Springer).

Each submitted paper will undergo a formal peer review process by at least 3 PC 
members. Contributions can be:

- Regular papers (maximum 12 pages): In this category fall those contributions 
which propose novel research contributions, address challenging problems with 
innovative ideas, or offer practical contributions in the application of FM and 
SE approaches for building FI applications via software composition. Regular 
papers should clearly describe the situation or problem tackled, the relevant 
state of the art, the position or solution suggested and the potential benefits 
of the contribution.

- Short papers (maximum 8 pages): This category includes tool demonstrations, 
position papers, industrial experiences and case-studies, and visionary papers. 
Authors of papers reporting industrial experiences are encouraged to make their 
experimental results available for use by reviewers. Similarly, authors of tool 
demonstration papers should make their tool available for use by reviewers.
