Foundations of Software Science and Computational Structures
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Foundations of Software Science and Computational Structures, FOSSACS 2009, held in York, UK, in March 2009, as part of ETAPS 2009, the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software. The 30 revised full papers presented together with two invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 102 full paper submissions. The topics addressed are semantics, logics and automata, algebras, automata theory, processes and models, security, probabilistic and quantitative models, synthesis, and program analysis and semantics.
Machine Learning Safety
Machine learning algorithms allow computers to learn without being explicitly programmed. Their application is now spreading to highly sophisticated tasks across multiple domains, such as medical diagnostics or fully autonomous vehicles. While this development holds great potential, it also raises new safety concerns, as machine learning has many specificities that make its behaviour prediction and assessment very different from that for explicitly programmed software systems. This book addresses the main safety concerns with regard to machine learning, including its susceptibility to environmental noise and adversarial attacks. Such vulnerabilities have become a major roadblock to the deplo...
Logic-Based Program Synthesis and Transformation
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed postproceedings of the 16th International Symposium on Logic Based Program Synthesis and Transformation, LOPSTR 2006, held in Venice, Italy, July 2006 in conjunction with ICALP 2006, PPDP 2006, and CSFW 2006. The 14 revised full papers cover tools for program development, partial evaluation and program transformation, security and synthesis, debugging and testing, as well as termination and analysis.
Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis, ATVA 2006, held in Beijing, China in October 2006. The 35 revised full papers presented together with abstracts of three keynote papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 137 submissions.
Formal Techniques for Networked and Distributed Systems - FORTE 2006
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 26th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Formal Techniques for Networked and Distributed Systems, FORTE 2006, held in Paris, France, in September 2006. The 26 revised full papers and 4 short papers presented together with 3 invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 177 submissions. The papers focus on the construction of middleware and services using formalised and verified approaches.
Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis
The Automated Technology for Veri?cation and Analysis (ATVA) international symposium series was initiated in 2003, responding to a growing interest in formal veri?cation spurred by the booming IT industry, particularly hardware design and manufacturing in East Asia. Its purpose is to promote research on automated veri?cation and analysis in the region by providing a forum for int- action between the regional and the international research/industrial commu- ties of the ?eld. ATVA 2005, the third of the ATVA series, was held in Taipei, Taiwan, October 4–7, 2005. The main theme of the symposium encompasses - sign, complexities, tools, and applications of automated methods for veri?cation and ...
Foundations of Software Science and Computational Structures
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Foundations of Software Science and computational Structures, FOSSACS 2011, held in Saarbrücken, Germany, March 26—April 3, 2011, as part of ETAPS 2011, the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software. The 30 revised full papers presented together with one full-paper length invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 100 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on coalgebra and computability, type theory, process calculi, automata theory, semantics, binding, security, and program analysis.
Dependable Software Systems Engineering
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...
Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2017, held in Berlin, Germany, in September 2017. The aim of FORMATS is to promote the study of fundamental and practical aspects of timed systems, and to bring together researchers from different disciplines that share interests in modelling and analysis of timed systems and, as a generalization, hybrid systems.
Parity games, separations, and the modal μ-calculus
The topics of this thesis are the modal μ-calculus and parity games. The modal μ-calculus is a common logic for model-checking in computer science. The model-checking problem of the modal μ-calculus is polynomial time equivalent to solving parity games, a 2-player game on labeled directed graphs. We present the first FPT algorithms (fixed-parameter tractable) for the model-checking problem of the modal μ-calculus on restricted classes of graphs, specifically on classes of bounded Kelly-width or bounded DAG-width. In this process we also prove a general decomposition theorem for the modal μ-calculus and define a useful notion of type for this logic. Then, assuming a class of parity games...
