SAT/SMT/AR 2024: International Summer School on Satisfiability, 
Satisfiability Modulo Theories, and Automated Reasoning
https://sat-smt-ar-school.gitlab.io/www/2024/index.html
June 26-29, 2024, Nancy, France

Satisfiability (SAT), Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT), and 
Automated Reasoning (AR) continue to make rapid advances and find novel 
uses in a wide variety of applications, both in computer science and 
beyond. The SAT/SMT/AR Summer School aims to bring a select group of 
students up to speed quickly in this exciting research area. The school 
continues the successful line of Summer Schools that ran from 2011 to 2022.

We are pleased to announce that the next edition of the SAT/SMT/AR 
Summer School will take place in Nancy, France from June 26 to June 29, 
2024. The lectures planned this year are detailed on the website and 
include a mix of basic and advanced theory as well as practical sessions.

The school is intended for PhD students, Master students, and industrial 
practitioners who want to get a good understanding of capabilities and 
current research directions in the area of SAT, SMT, and Automated 
Reasoning. Prior knowledge in those areas is not required, but knowledge 
of logic, general problem solving skills, good programming and math 
skills are helpful.

As the number of participants is limited, all prospective participants 
will have to *apply by filling this form*:

https://sondages.inria.fr/index.php/171451?lang=en

including:

- a short CV (at most 3 pages, including publications, if any),
- a letter of motivation written by the applicant (1 page),
- for students, the name of a supervisor from which to ask a supporting 
email (1 paragraph).

The letter should explain the motivation for attending the Summer 
School. Based on the application letters approximately 50 participants 
will be chosen from all qualified applicants. Admitted participants will 
then be provided a link for registration. The registration cost is not 
yet fixed. In the worst case it will be 200€, but depending on pending 
sponsors we hope it will be under 100€. Students that need travel 
support may indicate so in the application form. Students that have a 
paper accepted at IJCAR and plan to attend the conference are encouraged 
to apply for the Woody Bledsoe award 
(https://cadeinc.org/WoodyBledsoeAward). Information on how to apply 
will be available in due time on the IJCAR 2024 webpage ( 
https://merz.gitlabpages.inria.fr/2024-ijcar/ ).

Applications to the SAT/SMT/AR Summer School *close on the 10th of May*.
