CAV 2007 is the 19th Computer-Aided Verification conference. It will be held at the Park Inn Hotel, Alexanderplatz, Berlin, Germany, July 3-7, 2007. The conference will start with one day of tutorials (July 3rd), followed by 4 days of the main conference (July 4-7th). Seven affiliated workshops will be held in the two days before and the day after CAV (July 1st-2nd and July 8th).You can find the program for CAV 2007, links to affiliated workshops, and information on how to register for CAV and the workshops at the conference web site: http://www.cav2007.org IMPORTANT: The number of available hotel rooms is getting low. Please check availability of rooms before registering. The CAV conference is dedicated to the advancement of the theory and practice of computer-aided formal analysis methods for hardware and software systems. CAV considers it vital to continue its leadership in hardware verification, and maintain its recent momentum in software verification. The conference covers the spectrum from theoretical results to concrete applications, with an emphasis on practical verification tools and the algorithms and techniques that are needed for their implementation. The proceedings of the conference will be published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. A selection of papers will be invited to a special issue of the International Journal on Formal Methods and System Design. INVITED TALKS: ============== * Byron Cook (Microsoft Research): "Automatically Proving Program Termination" * David Russinoff (AMD): "A Mathematical Approach to RTL Verification" * Thomas Kropf (Robert Bosch AG): "Software Bugs seen from an Industrial Perspective; or: Can Formal Methods help on Automotive Software Development?"
