In the last few years we have all become daily users of Internet banking, social networks and cloud services. Preventing malfunctions in these services and protecting the integrity of private data from cyber attack are both current preoccupations of society at large. While modern technologies have dramatically improved the quality of software, the computer science community continues to address the problems of security by developing a theory of formal verification; a body of methodologies, algorithms and software tools for finding and eliminating bugs and security hazards. This book presents lectures delivered at the NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) School Marktoberdorf 2015 – ‘Verifi...

Theory and Formal Methods 1993

This volume contains the proceedings of the fIrst workshop held by the Theory and Formal Methods Section ofthe Imperial College Department of Computing. It contains papers from almost every member of the Section, from our long-term academic visitors, and from those who have recently left us. The papers fall into four broad areas: • semantics • concurrency • logic • specification with some papers spanning a number of disciplines. The subject material varies from work on mathematical foundations to practical applications of this theory, expressing the Section's commitment to both the foundations of computer science, and the application of theory to real computing problems. In preparing...

Semantics for Concurrency

The semantics of concurrent systems is one of the most vigorous areas of research in theoretical computer science, but suffers from disagree ment due to different, and often incompatible, attitudes towards abstracting non-sequential behaviour. When confronted with process algebras, which give rise to very elegant, highly abstract and com positional models, traditionally based on the interleaving abstraction, some argue that the wealth of contribution they have made is partially offset by the difficulty in dealing with topics such as faimess. On the other hand, the non-interleaving approaches, based on causality, although easing problems with fairness and confusion, still lack struc ture, com...

This volume contains the proceedings of the International Conference on Computer Aided Veri?cation (CAV), held in Edinburgh, Scotland, July 6–10, 2005. CAV 2005 was the seventeenth in a series of conferences dedicated to the advancement of the theory and practice of computer-assisted formal an- ysis methods for software and hardware systems. The conference covered the spectrum from theoretical results to concrete applications, with an emphasis on practical veri?cation tools and the algorithms and techniques that are needed for their implementation. We received 123 submissions for regular papers and 32 submissions for tool papers.Ofthesesubmissions,theProgramCommitteeselected32regularpapers...

The refereed proceedings of the 10th International Symposium on Static Analysis, SAS 2003, held in San Diego, CA, USA in June 2003 as part of FCRC 2003. The 25 revised full papers presented together with two invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 82 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on static analysis of object-oriented languages, static analysis of concurrent languages, static analysis of functional languages, static analysis of procedural languages, static data analysis, static linear relation analysis, static analysis based program transformation, and static heap analysis.

Verifying Cyber-Physical Systems

  • Publisher: MIT Press

A graduate-level textbook that presents a unified mathematical framework for modeling and analyzing cyber-physical systems, with a strong focus on verification. Verification aims to establish whether a system meets a set of requirements. For such cyber-physical systems as driverless cars, autonomous spacecraft, and air-traffic management systems, verification is key to building safe systems with high levels of assurance. This graduate-level textbook presents a unified mathematical framework for modeling and analyzing cyber-physical systems, with a strong focus on verification. It distills the ideas and algorithms that have emerged from more than three decades of research and have led to the creation of industrial-scale modeling and verification techniques for cyber-physical systems.

  • Publisher: Springer

This tutorial volume presents a coherent and well-balanced introduction to the validation of stochastic systems; it is based on a GI/Dagstuhl research seminar. Supervised by the seminar organizers and volume editors, established researchers in the area as well as graduate students put together a collection of articles competently covering all relevant issues in the area. The lectures are organized in topical sections on: modeling stochastic systems, model checking of stochastic systems, representing large state spaces, deductive verification of stochastic systems.

VMCAI 2003

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation, VMCAI 2003, held in New York, NY, USA in January 2003. The 20 revised full papers presented together with five invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on static analysis, dynamic systems, abstract interpretation, model checking, security protocols, and formal methods.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Veri?cation, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation (VMCAI 2003), held in New York city, January 9–11, 2003. The purpose of VMCAI was to provide a forum for researchers from three communities—Veri?cation, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation—that will facilitate interaction, cross-fertilization, and the advance of hybrid methods that combine the three areas. With the g- wingneedforformaltoolstoreasonaboutcomplex,in?nite-state,andembedded systems, such hybrid methods are bound to be of great importance. Topics covered by VMCAI include program veri?cation, static analysis te- niques, model checking, program certi?cation, type systems, abstract domains, debugging techniques, compiler optimization, embedded systems, and formal analysis of security protocols. VMCAI 2003 was the fourth VMCAI meeting. The previous three were held as workshops (Port Je?erson 1997, Pisa 1998, and Venice 2002). It is the success of the last meeting, and the wide response it generated, that made it clear the time had come to make it an annual conference.
