2021 New England Systems Verification Zoom Meeting

For 2021, we will hold a smaller-scale Zoom meeting focused on systems verification research in the SOSP/OSDI community.

Each talk slot is 10 minutes of presentation and 10 minutes of audience discussion. We hope that the small scale will encourage lively discussion, so the presentation might be interspersed with questions / discussion.

The meeting will be on October 22, 2021; all times are in the US/Eastern time zone.
