Revision as of 08:09, 17 February 2010 by Flemming (talk | contribs)

The second annual meeting of the MLQA working group will take place on 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.

The following list of presentations have been confirmed (but titles are tentative):

  • Bernhard Steffen (on performing static analysis by doing model checking)
  • Flemming Nielson (on performing model checking by doing static analysis)
  • Marta Kwiatkowska (on quantitative model checking)
  • Joost-Pieter Katoen (on quantitative model checking)
  • Marsha Chechik / Arie Gurfinkel (on the use of abstraction in model checking)
  • Orna Grumberg (on the use of abstraction in model checking)
  • David Monniaux (on operations research in static analysis and model checking)
  • Michael Huth (on modelling and analysing control of access and risk)

On top of which we will have:

  • MLQA Business Meeting (open to all attendees) about the future of MLQA

It will also be possible for attendees to present their own work, either in a poster session or by short 1-slide presentations; the format has not yet been decided.

Registration for the meeting should be part of registering for FLoC; I am told that the registration fees are likely to be:

  • Early Academic 70.00, Early Student 42.00
  • Regular Academic 100.00, Regular Student 58.00
  • Late Academic 115.00, Late Student 66.00

All prices are in UK Pounds.

The meeting is likely to start at 9am and to finish around 5pm or 6pm.
