cav-artifact-evaluationUse when packaging a CAV (Computer Aided Verification) artifact for the Artifact Evaluation Committee (AEC), covering the three badges (Available / Functional / Reusable), the smoke-test and full-review phases, ≥2 AEC reviewers per artifact, DOI-issuing archives, verification-tool packaging (solvers
cav-author-responseUse when drafting a CAV (Computer Aided Verification) author response (rebuttal) for a paper that has passed the two-stage review's first filter, covering how to answer soundness/proof objections, benchmark-fairness challenges, and novelty-delta doubts with verifiable evidence while preserving doubl
cav-camera-readyUse when preparing an accepted CAV (Computer Aided Verification) paper for its Springer LNCS open-access camera-ready, covering de-anonymization for the previously double-blind categories, the LNCS llncs template and Springer metadata (ORCID, author order, running heads), the copyright/open-access f
cav-experimentsUse when designing or auditing a CAV (Computer Aided Verification) empirical evaluation, covering standard benchmark sets (SV-COMP/SMT-COMP/HWMCC/VNN-COMP), fair baseline solvers with pinned versions and equal resource limits, timeout-dominated comparisons, soundness cross-checks and proof witnesses
cav-related-workUse when positioning a CAV (Computer Aided Verification) submission against the verification literature across CAV, TACAS, FMCAD, VMCAI, POPL/PLDI, and the journals (FMSD, JAR, TOCL, STTT), writing delta-first contrast rather than a citation catalog, crediting the right benchmark and tool lineages,
cav-reproducibilityUse when strengthening CAV (Computer Aided Verification) reproducibility, covering benchmark provenance (SV-COMP/SMT-COMP/HWMCC/VNN-COMP set revisions), pinned tool and baseline versions, resource limits and hardware, seeds for randomized/portfolio solvers, checkable proof witnesses/certificates for
cav-review-processUse when reasoning about how a CAV (Computer Aided Verification) submission is evaluated, covering the two-stage reviewing process (two reviews then an early-reject filter, then two more reviews with a rebuttal), the partial double-anonymity by category, the accept/reject outcome, the optional non-c
cav-submissionUse when auditing a CAV (Computer Aided Verification) submission for portal readiness, covering the four submission categories (Regular / Short Tool / Short Application / Industrial Experience & Case Studies), the LNCS page limits, the per-category anonymization matrix, the artifact-intent declarati
cav-supplementaryUse when deciding what belongs in a CAV (Computer Aided Verification) paper body versus its optional appendix and artifact, covering the LNCS page limits, the rule that reviewers are not obliged to read the appendix so decision-critical content stays in the body, where full proofs and benchmark tabl
cav-topic-selectionUse when deciding whether a formal-methods project belongs at CAV (Computer Aided Verification) or should be routed to TACAS, FMCAD, VMCAI, LPAR/IJCAR, POPL/PLDI/OOPSLA, or a journal (FMSD/JAR/TOCL), and when choosing the right CAV category — Regular, Short Tool, Short Application, or Industrial Exp
cav-workflowUse when planning a CAV (Computer Aided Verification) project timeline from venue and category selection through submission, the two-stage review with early reject and rebuttal, artifact evaluation by the AEC, and the LNCS open-access camera-ready, with backward-planning offsets for a verification-t
cav-writing-styleUse when revising a CAV (Computer Aided Verification) paper for a precise verification contribution on the first page, an explicit soundness/completeness statement, theorem-and-proof discipline in the LNCS page budget, fair benchmark claims, honest scope and limits, and double-blind wording for the
