Call for Papers

The aim of the GandALF 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 2019 edition of the symposium is the tenth edition. It is organized in the city of Bordeaux by the LABRI laboratory.

The symposium covers a large number of research subjects, ranging from theory to applications, and stimulate cross-fertilization. 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
• Probabilistic Models (Markov Decision processes)
• Program Analysis and Software Verification
• Reinforcement Learning
• Run-time Verification and Testing
• Specification and Verification of Finite and Infinite-state Systems
• Synthesis

Publications

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 a special issue of Information and Computation. The previous editions of GandALF already led to special issues of the International Journal of Foundations of Computer Science (GandALF 2010), Theoretical Computer Science (GandALF 2011 and 2012), Information and Computation (GandALF 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, and 2018; the latter two still in progress), and Acta Informatica (GandALF 2015).

Submissions

Submitted papers should not exceed fourteen (14) pages excluding references using EPTCS format (please use the LaTeX style provided at http://style.eptcs.org), be unpublished and contain original research. The paper may be provided with a clearly marked appendix, which will be reviewed at the discretion of the program committee. 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.
