==== ACM Symposium on Applied Computing ====


The ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC) has gathered scientists

from different areas of computing over the last thirty years. The forum

represents an opportunity to interact with different communities sharing

an interest in applied computing.


SAC 2023 is sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Applied

Computing (SIGAPP), and will take place on March 27-31, 2023 in

Tallinn, Estonia.


==== Software Verification and Testing Track (SVT) ====


The Software Verification and Testing track aims at contributing to the

challenge of improving the usability of formal methods in software

engineering. The track covers areas such as formal methods for

verification and testing, based on theorem proving, model checking,

static analysis, and run-time verification. We invite authors to submit

new results in formal verification and testing, as well as development

of technologies to improve the usability of formal methods in software

engineering. Also are welcome detailed descriptions of applications of

mechanical verification to large scale software.


==== Topics ====


Possible topics include, but are not limited to:


* model checking

* theorem proving

* correct by construction development

* model-based testing

* software testing

* symbolic execution

* static and dynamic analysis

* abstract interpretation

* analysis methods for dependable systems

* software certification and proof carrying code

* fault diagnosis and debugging

* verification and validation of large scale software systems

* real world applications and case studies applying software testing

  and verification

* benchmarks and data sets for software testing and verification


==== Submission Guidelines ====


Paper submissions must report on original, unpublished work. Submitted

papers will undergo a double-blind review process.  Author(s) name(s)

and address(es) must not appear in the body of the paper, and self-

reference should be avoided and made in the third person. We welcome

research papers and posters. Research papers should have at most 8

two-column pages in ACM format (further two pages, to a total of 10

pages, may be available at a charge). The length of a poster is limited

to three pages (one extra page may be available at a charge). Please

comply to this page limitation already at submission time.


Furthermore, in the context of the Student Research Competition (SRC)

Program to provide graduate students the opportunity to meet and

exchange ideas with researchers and practitioners in their areas of

interest, graduate students are invited to submit research abstracts

(maximum of 4 pages in ACM camera-ready format) following the

instructions published at the SAC 2023 website at


https://www.sigapp.org/sac/sac2023/authorkit/ACM_SigConf-SRC2023.pdf


Submission of the same abstract to multiple tracks is not allowed.


Accepted papers will be published in the ACM SAC 2023 proceedings in the

ACM digital library. Paper registration is required, allowing the

inclusion of the paper/poster in the conference proceedings. An author

or a proxy attending SAC MUST present the paper. This is a requirement

for the paper/poster to be included in the ACM digital library. No-show

of registered papers and posters will result in excluding them from the

ACM digital library.


Detailed submission instructions are available on the SAC 2023

website.
