Call for Papers
3rd Workshop on Horn Clauses for Verification and Synthesis (HCVS)
Affiliated with ETAPS 2016
April 3, 2016. Eindhoven, The Netherlands
http://hcvs2016.it.uu.se/
Submission deadlines:
- abstract submission: January 25, 2016
- paper submission: February 1, 2016
- paper notification: February 27, 2016
Many Program Verification and Synthesis problems of interest can be
modeled directly using Horn clauses, and many recent advances in the
CLP and CAV communities have centered around efficiently solving
problems presented as Horn clauses.
This workshop aims to bring together researchers working in the two
communities of Constraint/Logic Programming (e.g. ICLP and CP) and
Program Verification community (e.g. CAV, TACAS, and VMCAI) on the
topic of Horn clause based analysis, verification and synthesis.
Horn clauses for verification and synthesis have been advocated by
these two communities in different times and from different
perspectives, and this workshop is organized to stimulate interaction
and a fruitful exchange and integration of experiences.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the use of Horn
clauses, constraints, and related formalisms in the following areas:
- Analysis and verification of programs and systems of various kinds
(e.g., imperative, object-oriented, functional, logic, higher-order,
concurrent)
- Program synthesis
- Program testing
- Program transformation
- Constraint solving
- Type systems
- Case studies and tools
- Challenging problems
We solicit regular papers describing theory and implementation of
Horn-clause based analysis and tool descriptions. We also solicit
extended abstracts describing work-in-progress, as well as
presentations covering previously published results that are of
interest to the workshop.

Submission has to be done in one of the following formats:
- Regular papers (up to 12 pages plus bibliography, typeset in EPTCS
format), which should present previously unpublished work (completed
or in progress), including descriptions of research, tools, and
applications.
- Extended abstracts (up to 3 pages in EPTCS format), which describe
work in progress or aim to initiate discussions.
- Presentation-only papers, i.e., papers already submitted or
presented at a conference or another workshop. Such papers can be
submitted in any format, and will not be included in the workshop
post-proceedings.
All submitted papers will be refereed by the program committee and
will be selected for inclusion in accordance with the referee
reports. Accepted regular papers and extended abstracts will be
published electronically as a volume in the Electronic Proceedings in
Theoretical Computer Science (EPTCS) series, see
http://www.eptcs.org/
Authors of accepted papers are required to ensure that at least one of
them will be present at the workshop. Papers must be submitted
through the EasyChair system using the web page:
