CALL FOR PAPERS
5th International Colloquium on Theoretical Aspects of Computing (ICTAC
2008)
============================================================================
=
1-3 September 2008 The Marmara, Istanbul, Turkey
(Tutorials & Workshops 30-31 August 2008, Sabanci University, Istanbul)

The ICTAC series, founded by the United Nations University's International
Institute of Software Technology (UNU-IIST), brings together practitioners
and researchers from academia, industry and government to present research
and to exchange ideas and experience addressing challenges in both
theoretical aspects of computing and in the exploitation of theory through
methods and tools for system development. A further aim is to promote
cooperation in research and education between participants and
institutions from developing and industrial countries, as in the United
Nations University's mandate. The previous four ICTAC events were held in
Guiyang, China (2004), Hanoi, Vietnam (2005), Tunis, Tunisia (2006) and
Macau (2007).
In 2008, topics include, but are not limited to:
- software specification, refinement, verification and testing
- model checking and theorem proving
- software architectures
- coordination and feature interaction
- integration of theories, formal and engineering methods and tools
- models of concurrency, security, and mobility
- parallel, distributed, and internet-based (grid) computing
- real-time, embedded and hybrid systems
- automata theory and formal languages
- principles and semantics of languages
- logics and their applications
- type and category theory in computer science
- case studies, theories, tools and experiments of verified systems
- service-oriented architectures: models and development methods
- domain modelling and domain-specific technology: examples, frameworks and
experience
We particularly welcome submissions for a special track on Tool Support
for Formal Methods of System Development: from the foundations of tools,
through their design to application and evaluation.
Paper Submissions
-----------------
Submissions to the conference must not have been published or be
concurrently considered for publication elsewhere. All submissions will be
judged on the basis of originality, contribution to the field, technical
and presentation quality, and relevance to the conference. Papers should
be in English and should not exceed 15 pages LNCS format (see
<http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html>
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for details). Submission
constitutes a commitment to attend and present a paper, if accepted.
Proceedings of the previous ICTAC colloquia were published by Springer in
the LNCS series. We plan to do the same this year.
