MLQA 2010

The second annual meeting of the MLQA working group will take place on Friday July 9'th 2010 as part of FLoC 2010 in Edinburgh (Scotland). The theme of the meeting is:

• Static Analysis versus Model Checking: similarities, differences, synergies

The aim is to create a vibrant event consisting mainly of a number of invited talks that will cover some of the historical developments, survey the links established, establish state-of-the-art, identify the problems still worth pursuing and give a perspective on the implications and (novel) applications that can be foreseen.

We would also like to lay the foundations for future research collaborations on challenging research problems. As part of this there will be a poster session, for which we invite submissions. Further details and important dates can be found on Call for Posters for MLQA 2010 (as part of FLoC 2010) page.

Registration for the meeting should be part of registering for FLoC; the early registration ends on the 17th of May, the regular registration goes until the 30th of June and the late registration continues until the start of FLoC.
