This book constitutes the proceedings of the 12th International Symposium on Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis, ATVA 2014, held in Sydney, Australia, in November 2014. The 29 revised papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 76 submissions. They show current research on theoretical and practical aspects of automated analysis, verification and synthesis by providing an international forum for interaction among the researchers in academia and industry.
Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute, Marktoberdorf, Germany, from 24 July to 5 August 2001
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Static Analysis Symposium, SAS 2002, held in Madrid, Spain in September 2002. The 32 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 86 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on theory, data structure analysis, type inference, analysis of numerical problems, implementation, data flow analysis, compiler optimizations, security analyses, abstract model checking, semantics and abstract verification, and termination analysis.
The name "temporal logic" may sound complex and daunting; but while they describe potentially complex scenarios, temporal logics are often based on a few simple, and fundamental, concepts - highlighted in this book. An Introduction to Practical Formal Methods Using Temporal Logic provides an introduction to formal methods based on temporal logic, for developing and testing complex computational systems. These methods are supported by many well-developed tools, techniques and results that can be applied to a wide range of systems. Fisher begins with a full introduction to the subject, covering the basics of temporal logic and using a variety of examples, exercises and pointers to more advance...
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the First International Conference on Software Engineering Research and Applications, SERA 2003, held in San Francisco, CA, USA in June 2003. The 23 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from 104 initial submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers are organized in topical sections on formal methods; component-based software engineering; software quality, requirements engineering, reengineering, and performance analysis; knowledge discovery and artificial intelligence; and database retrieval and human-computer interaction.
This book consitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Computer Aided Verification, CAV'98, held in Vancouver, BC, Canada, in June/July 1998. The 33 revised full papers and 10 tool papers presented were carefully selected from a total of 117 submissions. Also included are 11 invited contributions. Among the topics covered are modeling and specification formalisms; verification techniques like state-space exploration, model checking, synthesis, and automated deduction; various verification techniques; applications and case studies, and verification in practice.
This volume contains the proceedings of a workshop held in Grenoble in June 1989. This was the first workshop entirely devoted to the verification of finite state systems. The workshop brought together researchers and practitioners interested in the development and use of methods, tools and theories for automatic verification of finite state systems. The goal at the workshop was to compare verification methods and tools to assist the applications designer. The papers in this volume review verification techniques for finite state systems and evaluate their relative advantages. The techniques considered cover various specification formalisms such as process algebras, automata and logics. Most of the papers focus on exploitation of existing results in three application areas: hardware design, communication protocols and real-time systems.
This book is for researchers in computer science, mathematical logic, and philosophical logic. It shows the state of the art in current investigations of process calculi with mainly two major paradigms at work: linear logic and modal logic. The combination of approaches and pointers for further integration also suggests a grander vision for the field.
CHARME’99 is the tenth in a series of working conferences devoted to the dev- opment and use of leading-edge formal techniques and tools for the design and veri?cation of hardware and systems. Previous conferences have been held in Darmstadt (1984), Edinburgh (1985), Grenoble (1986), Glasgow (1988), Leuven (1989), Torino (1991), Arles (1993), Frankfurt (1995) and Montreal (1997). This workshop and conference series has been organized in cooperation with IFIP WG 10. 5. It is now the biannual counterpart of FMCAD, which takes place every even-numbered year in the USA. The 1999 event took place in Bad Her- nalb, a resort village located in the Black Forest close to the city of Karlsruhe. The ...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems, TACAS 2001. The 36 revised full papers presented together with an invited contribution were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 125 submissions. The papers are organized in sections on symbolic verification, infinite state systems - deduction and abstraction, application of model checking techniques, timed and probabilistic systems, hardware - design and verification, software verification, testing - techniques and tools, implementation techniques, semantics and compositional verification, logics and model checking, and ETAPS tool demonstration.
