We solicit talks about ongoing research in the area of systems verification. We are broadly interested in most topics in this space, but for some examples, take a look at the schedule from the workshops in 2017 and 2018.
Concretely, to propose a talk, send an email to Adam and Nickolai with one paragraph describing:
Full consideration will be given to proposals received by September 1st.
