_*SAT 2024: Second Call for Papers*_
SAT 2024 is the 27th edition of the International Conference on Theory
and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT). The scope of SAT 2024
includes all aspects of the theory and applications of propositional
satisfiability, broadly construed. This also includes Boolean
optimization, such as MaxSAT and Pseudo-Boolean (PB) constraints,
Quantified Boolean Formulas (QBF), Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT),
Model Counting, and Constraint Programming (CP) for problems with clear
connections to Boolean-level reasoning.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
* Theoretical advances (including algorithms, proof complexity,
parameterized complexity, and other complexity issues)
* Practical search algorithms
* Knowledge compilation
* Implementation-level details of SAT and SMT solving tools and
SAT/SMT-based systems
* Problem encodings and reformulations
* Applications (including novel application domains and
improvements to existing applications)
* Case studies and reports on insightful findings based on rigorous
experimentation
Out of Scope
Papers claiming to resolve a major long-standing open theoretical
question in Mathematics or Computer Science (such as those for which a
Millennium Prize is offered), are outside the scope of the conference
because there is insufficient time in the schedule to referee such
papers; instead, such papers should be submitted to an appropriate
technical journal.
Paper Categories
Submissions to SAT 2024 are invited in the following three categories:
* Long papers (9 to 15 pages, excluding references and appendices)
* Short papers (up to 8 pages, excluding references and appendices)
* Tool papers (up to 8 pages, excluding references and appendices)
Long and short papers should contain original research, with sufficient
detail to assess the merits and relevance of the contribution. For
papers reporting experimental results, authors are strongly encouraged
to make their data and implementation available with the submission.
Submissions on applications and case studies are encouraged. Such papers
should describe details, weaknesses and strengths of the proposed
approaches in sufficient depth, but they are not expected to introduce
novel solving methods.
Long and short papers will be evaluated with the same quality standards,
and are expected to contain a similar contribution per page ratio. The
authors should choose between a long or a short paper depending on the
space they need to fully describe their contribution.The classification
between long and short papers impacts the duration of the presentation
of the work during the conference. It is the responsibility of the
authors to make sure that their paper is self-contained in the chosen
limit of pages. There will be no re-classification of submissions by the
PC.
Tool papers are expected to report on the design and implementation of a
tool, its novel features, strengths, limitations and potential
applications. A "tool" is interpreted in a broad sense, including
descriptions of solvers, pre-processors etc., as well as systems that
exploit SAT and related solvers or their extensions for use in a
relevant problem domain. A demonstration is expected to accompany a tool
presentation. Papers describing tools that have already been presented
previously are expected to contain significant and clear enhancements to
the tool.
Submission
Submissions should not be under review elsewhere nor be submitted
elsewhere while under review for SAT 2024, and should not consist of
previously published material. Submissions not consistent with these
guidelines may be returned without review.
Papers must be formatted in the LIPIcs LaTeX style available at
https://submission.dagstuhl.de/series/details/LIPIcs#author
Submissions must be made electronically in PDF format at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sat2024
The reviewing process for SAT 2024 is single-blind.
Authors may submit a supplement containing detailed proofs, examples,
software, detailed experimental data, or other material related to the
submission, to be consulted at the discretion of the reviewers. The
supplement should not be used as overflow space for the main paper,
which should be self-contained for review purposes. Supplements will be
treated with the same degree of confidentiality as the paper itself. The
supplement must consist of a single file in one of the following
formats: zipped tarball (.tar.gz or .tgz), gzipped file (.gz), or zip
archive (.zip).
One author of each accepted paper is expected to register for the
conference and present it there.

Best Paper Awards
Long and short papers may be considered for a Best Paper Award. If the
main author is a student, both in terms of work and writing, the paper
may be considered for a Best Student Paper Award.
Proceedings
All accepted papers will be published as proceedings of the conference
in the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) as a
free, open, electronic archive with access to all. Authors will retain
full rights over their work. The accepted papers will be published under
a CC-BY license.
