VMCAI 2021 is the 22nd International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation. The conference will be held on January 17-19, 2021, in Copenhagen, Denmark, as a physical, virtual, or hybrid physical/virtual meeting depending on the COVID-19 situation. VMCAI provides a forum for researchers from the communities of Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation, facilitating interaction, cross-fertilization, and advancement of hybrid methods that combine these and related areas.
