Call for Papers

RV 2019

19th International Conference on Runtime Verification
Porto, Portugal
8-11 October 2019

https://www.react.uni-saarland.de/rv2019/

# Scope

Runtime verification is concerned with the monitoring and analysis of the 
runtime behaviour of software and hardware systems. Runtime verification 
techniques are crucial for system correctness, reliability, and robustness; 
they provide an additional level of rigor and effectiveness compared to 
conventional testing, and are generally 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, but are not limited to:

* specification languages for monitoring
* monitor construction techniques
* program instrumentation
* logging, recording, and replay
* combination of static and dynamic analysis
* specification mining and machine learning over runtime traces
* monitoring techniques for concurrent and distributed systems
* runtime checking of privacy and security policies
* metrics and statistical information gathering
* program/system execution visualization
* fault localization, containment, recovery and repair
* dynamic type checking

Application areas of runtime verification include cyber-physical systems, 
safety/mission critical systems, enterprise and systems software, cloud 
systems, autonomous and reactive control systems, health management and 
diagnosis systems, and system security and privacy.

# Submissions

All papers and tutorials will appear in the conference proceedings in an LNCS 
volume. Submitted papers and tutorials must use the LNCS/Springer style 
detailed here:

http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html

Papers must be original work and not be submitted for publication elsewhere. 
Papers must be written in English and submitted electronically (in PDF format) 
using the EasyChair submission page here:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rv19

The page limitations mentioned below include all text and figures, but exclude 
references. Additional details omitted due to space limitations may be included 
in a clearly marked appendix, that will be reviewed at the discretion of 
reviewers, but not included in the proceedings.

At least one author of each accepted paper and tutorial must attend RV 2018 to 
present.

# Papers

There are three categories of papers which can be submitted: regular, short and 
tool demo papers. Papers in each category will be reviewed by at least 3 
members of the Program Committee.

* Regular Papers (up to 15 pages, not including references)
should present original unpublished results. We welcome theoretical papers, 
system papers, papers describing domain-specific variants of RV, and case 
studies on runtime verification.

* Short Papers (up to 6 pages, not including references)
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.

* Tool Demonstration Papers (up to 8 pages, not including references) 
should present a new tool, a new tool component, or novel extensions to 
existing tools supporting runtime verification. 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. 

The Program Committee of RV 2019 will give a best paper award, and a selection 
of accepted regular papers will be invited to appear in a special journal issue.

# Tutorial Track

Tutorials are two-to-three-hour presentations on a selected topic. 
Additionally, tutorial presenters will be offered to publish a paper of up to 
20 pages in the LNCS conference proceedings.
A proposal for a tutorial must contain the subject of the tutorial, a proposed 
timeline, a note on previous similar tutorials (if applicable) and the 
differences to this incarnation, and a biography of the presenter. The proposal 
must not exceed 2 pages. Tutorial proposals will be reviewed by the Program 
Committee.
