Principles of Model Checking
A comprehensive introduction to the foundations of model checking, a fully automated technique for finding flaws in hardware and software; with extensive examples and both practical and theoretical exercises. Our growing dependence on increasingly complex computer and software systems necessitates the development of formalisms, techniques, and tools for assessing functional properties of these systems. One such technique that has emerged in the last twenty years is model checking, which systematically (and automatically) checks whether a model of a given system satisfies a desired property such as deadlock freedom, invariants, and request-response properties. This automated technique for ver...
Principles of Verification: Cycling the Probabilistic Landscape
This Festschrift is dedicated to Joost-Pieter Katoen in recognition of his outstanding research, teaching, and organizational successes. Joost-Pieter received his Master's and later his Ph.D. from the University of Twente, and his Professional Doctorate in Engineering from Eindhoven University of Technology. He had research positions at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg and Philips Research, and visiting professorships in France, Australia, and the UK. Since 2004 he has been a professor at RWTH Aachen University and is part-time associated with the University of Twente. Joost-Pieter's main areas of research are formal methods, computer-aided verification, concurrency theory, probabilistic...
Foundations of Probabilistic Programming
This book provides an overview of the theoretical underpinnings of modern probabilistic programming and presents applications in e.g., machine learning, security, and approximate computing. Comprehensive survey chapters make the material accessible to graduate students and non-experts. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Lectures on Formal Methods and Performance Analysis
Traditionally, models and methods for the analysis of the functional correctness of reactive systems, and those for the analysis of their performance (and - pendability) aspects, have been studied by di?erent research communities. This has resulted in the development of successful, but distinct and largely unrelated modeling and analysis techniques for both domains. In many modern systems, however, the di?erence between their functional features and their performance properties has become blurred, as relevant functionalities become inextricably linked to performance aspects, e.g. isochronous data transfer for live video tra- mission. During the last decade, this trend has motivated an increa...
Model-Based Testing of Reactive Systems
Testing is the primary hardware and software verification technique used by industry today. Usually, it is ad hoc, error prone, and very expensive. In recent years, however, many attempts have been made to develop more sophisticated formal testing methods. This coherent book provides an in-depth assessment of this emerging field, focusing on formal testing of reactive systems. This book is based on a seminar held in Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, in January 2004. It presents 19 carefully reviewed and revised lectures given at the seminar in a well-balanced way ensuring competent complementary coverage of all relevant aspects. An appendix provides a glossary for model-based testing and basics on finite state machines and on labelled transition systems. The lectures are presented in topical sections on testing of finite state machines, testing of labelled transition systems, model-based test case generation, tools and case studies, standardized test notation and execution architectures, and beyond testing.
Programming Languages and Systems
This proceedings volume of the 17th European Symposium on Programming examines fundamental issues in the specification, analysis and implementation of programming languages and systems, including static analysis, security, concurrency and program verification.
