Please see the conference website for further details. Paper Submission There are two categories of submissions: A. Regular Papers: Submissions, not exceeding sixteen (16) pages using Springer's LNCS format, should contain original research, and sufficient detail to assess the merits and relevance of the contribution. For papers reporting experimental results, authors are strongly encouraged to make their data available with their submission. Submissions reporting on case studies in an industrial context are strongly invited, and should describe details, weaknesses, and strengths in sufficient depth. Simultaneous submission to other conferences with proceedings or submission of material that has already been published elsewhere is not allowed. B. Tool Presentations: Submissions, not exceeding six (6) pages using Springer's LNCS format, should describe the implemented tool and its novel features. An appendix that will not be part of the published presentation may be added for use in the program committee selection process.

CAV 2012 Workshops will be held before the main conference on July 7 and 8. Workshop proposals will be reviewed by the Workshop chair along with the program chairs and members of the steering committee. Proposals must consist of the following two parts: -- Part I: Technical Information -- A short (about 1 page) scientific justification of the proposed topic, its significance and relevance to CAV, and the particular benefits of the workshop to the verification community, as well as a list of previous or related workshops (if relevant). -- Part II: Organizational Information -- - contact information of the workshop organizers - identifying a main contact for the workshop (i.e. a workshop chair) - the desired length of the workshop, (one or two days) - estimate of the audience size - proposed format and agenda (for example, demo sessions, tutorials, etc.) - potential invited speakers - procedures for selecting papers and participants - plans for dissemination, if any (for example, special issues of journals) - special technical, AV, or USB stick needs - links to a preliminary website of the workshop and call for papers (if possible) - information if workshop has been previously held Important Dates: Proposals are due by Nov 10th, 2011 by email to the Workshop chair. Organizers will be notified by Nov 20th, 2011. The workshop proposals will be reviewed and evaluated on the following criteria: * Potential to advance state of the art in verification technologies, especially ability to break new ground. * Relevance to CAV. * Overlap of topics with other proposed workshops. * Past-successes of the workshop and association with previous CAV conferences. * Organizers' ability and experience to lead a successful workshop. All accepted workshops will be asked to provide a webpage, call for papers, and list of invited speakers. The workshop participants will be required to register for the workshop through the CAV main registration page. The registration rates for workshops will be set by CAV organizers in consultation with the workshop organizers, following rate structures similar to (but not the same as) those followed in the past. The workshop organizers are strongly encouraged to seek external funding and sponsorships.
