CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

Recent years have seen an increasing interest in the application of
constraint-solving techniques to testing, verification and analysis of
software systems. The reason for this interest is the dramatic
improvement in efficiency and expressive power of Boolean SAT, SMT and
CP solvers, thus making it considerably easier to build and maintain
these applications. As the solvers become more efficient and expressive,
newer applications are being developed in diverse areas of software
engineering (SE). Moreover, rather than just using solvers as black
boxes, a recent trend in solver-based SE applications is a deeper
integration of solver and application. This can result in more powerful
SE techniques but it necessitates close interaction between solver
developers and users.

The aim of this workshop is to highlight the use of solvers in novel
applications, new solver features, and encourage the use of solvers in
fresh solutions to long-standing SE problems. Furthermore, the workshop
should act as a venue for cross-community interaction between
researchers in constraint solving and in software engineering.

PROGRAM

The program is now on the website
https://ece.uwaterloo.ca/~vganesh/cstva14.html
It features a keynote from Nikolaj Bjorner, co-developer of the Z3 SMT
solver at Microsoft Research, USA and an interesting variety of papers
on novel software engineering applications of constraint solving, uses
of newer solver features and the choice of solver. We are aiming for a
friendly, interactive workshop with plenty of discussion.
