Models, Algorithms, Logics and Tools
This Festschrift is published in honor of Kim Guldstrand Larsen, one of the earliest precursors of computer science in Denmark, on the occasion of his 60th birthday. During the last three decades, Kim Guldstrand Larsen has given major contributions across a remarkably wide range of topics, including real-time, concurrent, and probabilistic models of computation, logic in computer science, and model checking. Since 1995, he has been one of the prime movers behind the model checking tool for real-time systems UPPAAL, for which he was a co-recipient of the CAV Award in 2013. The Festschrift contains 32 papers that feature the broad range of Kim Guldstrand Larsen's research topics, such as formal languages and automata theory; logic; verification, model checking and testing; algorithmic game theory and mechanism design; semantics and reasoning; real-time and distributed systems; and modeling and simulation.
Dependable Software Systems Engineering
Cyber-physical systems closely combine and coordinate subsystems consisting of both computational and physical elements. Such systems have become indispensable in the fields of aerospace, automotive and the automation industries, as well as in consumer appliances. Safety, security and reliability are all essential elements of the trustworthiness of these modern cyber-physical systems. Protecting the data within such systems from external attack (security) and protecting the environment from any potential malfunction or misuse of these systems (safety) are subjects traditionally considered separately, but a closer look reveals that techniques for the construction and analysis of the software-...
Formal Methods for the Design of Real-Time Systems
This book presents the revised versions of nine invited lectures presented by leading researchers at the fourth edition of the International School on Formal Methods for the Design of Computer, Communication, and Software Systems, SFT 2004, held in Bertinoro, Italy, September 2004. SFM 2004 is devoted to real-time systems. The lectures presented cover formal models and languages for the specification, modeling, analysis, and verification of time-critical systems, the expressiveness of such models and languages, as well as supporting tools and related applications in different domains. The book offers a unique and comprehensive state-of-the-art survey on real-time systems. Researchers and advanced students will appreciate the book as a valuable source of reference and a systematic guide to the use of formal methods for the specification, analysis, and verification of real-time systems.
Lectures on Concurrency and Petri Nets
This tutorial volume originates from the 4th Advanced Course on Petri Nets, ACPN 2003, held in Eichsttt, Germany in September 2003. In addition to lectures given at ACPN 2003, additional chapters have been commissioned to give a well-balanced presentation of the state of the art in the area. This book will be useful as both a reference for those working in the area as well as a study book for the reader who is interested in an up-to-date overview of research and development in concurrent and distributed systems; of course, readers specifically interested in theoretical or applicational aspects of Petri nets will appreciate the book as well.
Foundations of Software Science and Computation Structures
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Foundations of Software Science and Computation Structures, FOSSACS '99, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands in March 1999 as part of ETAPS'99. The 18 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from a total of 40 submissions. Also included are three invited papers. The central issues of the papers are theories and methods which suport the specification, transformation, verification and analysis of programs and software systems.
Computer Aided Verification
This volume contains the proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Computer Aided Veri?cation (CAV 2000) held in Chicago, Illinois, USA during 15-19 July 2000. The CAV conferences are devoted to the advancement of the theory and practice of formal methods for hardware and software veri?cation. The con- rence covers the spectrum from theoretical foundations to concrete applications, with an emphasis on veri?cation algorithms, methods, and tools together with techniques for their implementation. The conference has traditionally drawn contributions from both researchers and practitioners in academia and industry. This year 91 regular research papers were submitted out of which 35 were...
Theories of Programming and Formal Methods
This Festschrift volume, dedicated to He Jifeng on the occasion of his 70th birthday in September 2013, includes 24 refereed papers by leading researchers, current and former colleagues, who congratulated at a celebratory symposium held in Shanghai, China, in the course of the 10th International Colloquium on Theoretical Aspects of Computing, ICTAC 2013. The papers cover a broad spectrum of subjects, from foundational and theoretical topics to programs and systems issues and to applications, comprising formal methods, software and systems modeling, semantics, laws of programming, specification and verification, as well as logics. He Jifeng is known for his seminal work in the theories of pro...
Formal Methods for Industrial Critical Systems
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 28th International Conference on Formal Methods for Industrial Critical Systems, FMICS 2023, held in Antwerp, Belgium, during September 20–22, 2023. The 14 full papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. The papers focus on development and application of formal methods in industry. FMICS is a platform for scientists and engineers who are active in the area of formal methods and interested in exchanging their experiences in the industrial usage of these methods. FMICS also strives to promote research and development for the improvement of formal methods and tools for industrial applications.
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.
