• Design and development of innovative testing tools to be applied in real V&V scenarios;
• Description of strategies and challenges about the effort needed for the adoption of a V&V approach;
• Description of working prototypes about research techniques, reporting any feedback obtained from practitioners and description of the technical challenges in developing them;
• Description of case studies and/or experiments performed by exploiting the tools in certain contexts. Reporting lessons learned and negative results, if any.

Evaluation:

Submissions will be evaluated based on:

• The relevance and significance of the addressed problem.
• The innovation element of the approach.
