CALL FOR PAPERS
************************

SEFM aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and government, to advance the state of the art in formal methods, to facilitate their uptake in the software industry, and to encourage their integration within practical software engineering methods and tools.

*** TRACKS AND TOPICS OF INTEREST ***

The topics of interest for submission include, but are not limited to, the following aspects of software engineering and formal methods:

- Software Development Methods: Formal modelling, specification, and design; Software evolution, maintenance, re-engineering, and reuse
- Design Principles: Programming languages; Domain-specific languages; Type theory; Abstraction and refinement
- Software Testing, Validation, and Verification: Model checking, theorem proving, and decision procedures; Testing and runtime verification; Statistical and probabilistic analysis; Synthesis; Performance estimation and analysis of other non-functional properties; Other light-weight and scalable formal methods
- Security and Safety: Security, privacy, and trust; Safety-critical, fault-tolerant, and secure systems; Software certification
- Applications and Technology Transfer: Service-oriented and cloud computing systems, Internet of Things; Component, object, multi-agent and self-adaptive systems; Real-time, hybrid, and cyber-physical systems; Intelligent systems and machine learning; Quantum systems; HCI, interactive systems, and human error analysis; Education
- Case studies, best practices, and experience reports

Authors are invited to submit:
- Regular papers (not exceeding 16 pages excluding bibliography of at most two pages) describing original research results, case studies, or surveys
- Short papers (not exceeding 8 pages excluding bibliography of at most one page) describing original research results or case studies, maybe in an incubation phase
- Tool papers (not exceeding 8 pages) that describe an operational tool and its contributions

Papers must be formatted according to the guidelines for Springer LNCS papers (https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs). All submissions must be original, unpublished, and not submitted concurrently for publication elsewhere.
Papers can be submitted through Microsoft CMT: https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/SEFM2025
All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of the conference that will be published as a volume in Springer’s LNCS series.
