SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
The aim of 4PAD is to foster interaction between the formal methods communities and systems researchers working on topics in modern parallel, distributed, and network-based processing systems (e.g., autonomous computing systems, cloud computing systems, service-oriented systems and parallel computing architectures).
4PAD Topics include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Rigorous software engineering approaches and their tool support; - Model-based approaches, including model-driven development; - Service- and component-based approaches; - Semantics, types and logics; - Formal specification and verification; - Performance analysis based on formal approaches; - Formal aspects of programming paradigms and languages; - Formal approaches to parallel architectures and weak memory models; - Formal approaches to deployment, run-time analysis, adaptation/evolution, reconfiguration, and monitoring; - Case studies developed/analyzed with formal approaches; - Formal stochastic models and analysis; - Formal methods for large-scale distributed systems; - Statistical analysis techniques based on formal approaches.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSIONS
You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on above and other topics related to Formal Approaches to Parallel and Distributed Systems. Submitted paper must not have been published or simultaneously submitted elsewhere until it appears in HPCS proceedings, in the case of acceptance, or notified otherwise. For Regular papers, please submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript, not to exceed 8 double-column formatted pages per template, and include up to 6 keywords and an abstract of no more than 400 words. Additional pages will be charged additional fee. Submission should include a cover page with authors' names, affiliation addresses, fax numbers, phone numbers, and all authors email addresses. Please, indicate clearly the corresponding author(s) although all authors are equally responsible for the manuscript. Short papers (up to 4 pages), poster papers and posters (please refer to http://hpcs2019.cisedu.info/1-call-for-papers-and-participation/call-for-pos... http://hpcs2019.cisedu.info/1-call-for-papers-and-participation/call-for-posters for posters submission details) will also be considered. Please specify the type of submission you have. Please include page numbers on all preliminary submissions to make it easier for reviewers to provide helpful comments.

Proceedings
Accepted papers will be published in the Conference proceedings. Instructions for final manuscript format and requirements will be posted on the HPCS 2019 Conference web site. It is our intent to have the proceedings formally published in hard and soft copies and be available at the time of the conference. The proceedings is projected to be included in the IEEE or ACM Digital Library and indexed in all major indexing services accordingly.
SPECIAL ISSUE
Plans are underway to have the best papers, in extended version, selected for possible publication in a reputable journal as special issue. Detailed information will soon be announced and will be made available on the conference website.
Furthermore, it is confirmed that after the 4PAD symposium, authors of selected papers will be invited to submitted extended version of their papers for possible publication in a special issue of the Journal of Logical and Algebraic Methods in Programming (JLAMP, https://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-logical-and-algebraic-methods-i... https://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-logical-and-algebraic-methods-in-programming).
If you have any questions about paper submission or the symposium, please contact the symposium organizers.
