TPHOLs is a series of international conferences that started in 1988 and

brings together researchers working in all areas of interactive theorem

proving.  The conference will be held on 17 through 20 August

2009 in Munich.

{\bf Topics}\medskip

The program committee welcomes submissions on all aspects of theorem

proving in higher order logics, on related topics in theorem proving and

verification, and on relevant applications. The topics include, but are not

limited to, the following:

\begin{itemize} 

\item Specification and verification of hardware: microprocessors, memory 

systems, buses, pipelines, etc; formal semantics of hardware design languages;

synthesis; formal design flows. 

\item Specification and verification of software: program verification, 

  refinement, and synthesis for functional, declarative and imperative

  languages; formal semantics of programming languages; proof carrying 

  code.

\item Industrial application of theorem provers. 

\item Formalization of mathematical theories. 

\item Advances in theorem prover technology: proof automation and decision 

  procedures, induction, combination of deductive and algorithmic approaches, 

  incorporation of theorem provers into larger systems, combination of 

  theorem provers with other provers and tools. 

\item Other topics, including: security algorithms, properties, and policies; 

  specification and requirements analysis of systems; user interfaces for 

  theorem provers; development and extension of higher order logics. 

\item Proof Pearls: concise and elegant presentations of interesting examples.

\end{itemize}

Relevant research involving interactive first-order systems, such as ACL2 

and Mizar, is also welcome. All authors are reminded that their work should 

be presented in a way that users of other systems can understand. 

Submission is electronic. Papers should be no more than 16 pages in length

and are to be submitted in PDF format. They must conform to the LNCS style 

preferably using LaTeX2e. The proceedings are to be published as a volume 

in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series and will be available to

participants at the conference.

Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their paper at

the workshop.
