This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the First Combined International Workshops on Formal Approaches to Software Testing, FATES 2006, and on Runtime Verification, RV 2006, held within the scope of FLoC 2006, the Federated Logic Conference in Seattle, WA, USA in August 2006. Coverage discusses formal approaches to test and analyze programs and monitor and guide their executions by using various techniques.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 2010 Runtime Veri?cation conf- ence (RV 2010), which was held in St. Julians, Malta on November 1–4, 2010. The conference program included a mix of invited talks and peer reviewed p- sentations, tutorials, and tool demonstrations. The 2010 Runtime Veri?cation conference was a forum for researchers and industrial practitioners to present theories and tools for monitoring and anal- ing system(softwareandhardware)executions,aswell asa forumfor presenting applications of such tools to practical problems. The ?eld of runtime veri?cation is often referred to under di?erent names, including dynamic analysis, runtime analysis, and runtime monitoring, to mention a few. Runtime veri?cation can be applied during the development of a system for the purpose of program - derstanding, debugging, and testing, or it can be applied as part of a running system, for example for security or safety policy monitoring, and can furth- more be part of a fault protection framework. A number of sub-?elds of runtime veri?cation have emerged over time, such as speci?cation languages and logics for execution analysis, dynamic analysis algorithms, program instrumentation, security monitoring, fault protection, speci?cation mining, and dynamic system visualization. Runtime veri?cationhas strong connections to other ?elds of c- puter science research, such as combinations of static and dynamic analysis, aspect-oriented programming, and model-based testing. Runtime Veri?cation events started with a workshop in 2001 and continued as an annual workshop series through 2009.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Symposium on NASA Formal Methods, NFM 2011, held in Pasadena, CA, USA, in April 2011. The 26 revised full papers presented together with 12 tool papers, 3 invited talks, and 2 invited tutorials were carefully reviewed and selected from 141 submissions. The topics covered by NFM 2011 included but were not limited to: theorem proving, logic model checking, automated testing and simulation, model-based engineering, real-time and stochastic systems, SAT and SMT solvers, symbolic execution, abstraction and abstraction refinement, compositional verification techniques; static and dynamic analysis techniques, fault protection, cyber security, specification formalisms, requirements analysis, and applications of formal techniques.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on NASA Formal Methods, NFM 2015, held in Pasadena, CA, USA, in April 2015. The 24 revised regular papers presented together with 9 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 108 submissions. The topics include model checking, theorem proving; SAT and SMT solving; symbolic execution; static analysis; runtime verification; systematic testing; program refinement; compositional verification; security and intrusion detection; modeling and specification formalisms; model-based development; model-based testing; requirement engineering; formal approaches to fault tolerance; and applications of formal methods.

The SPIN workshop is a forum for researchers interested in the subject of automata-based, explicit-state model checking technologies for the analysis and veri?cation of asynchronous concurrent and distributed systems. The SPIN - del checker (http://netlib.bell-labs.com/netlib/spin/whatispin.html), developed by Gerard Holzmann, is one of the best known systems of this kind, and has attracted a large user community. This can likely be attributed to its e?cient state exploration algorithms. The fact that SPIN’s modeling language, Promela, resembles a programming language has probably also contributed to its success. Traditionally, the SPIN workshops present papers on extensions and uses of SPIN. As an experiment, this year’s workshop was broadened to have a slightly wider focus than previous workshops in that papers on software veri?cation were encouraged. Consequently, a small collection of papers describe attempts to analyze and verify programs written in conventional programming languages. Solutions include translations from source code to Promela, as well as specially designed model checkers that accept source code. We believe that this is an - teresting research direction for the formal methods community, and that it will result in a new set of challenges and solutions. Of course, abstraction becomes the key solution to deal with very large state spaces. However, we also see - tential for integrating model checking with techniques such as static program analysis and testing. Papers on these issues have therefore been included in the proceedings.

SPIN Model Checking and Software Verification

Jens Palsberg

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International SPIN workshop on Model Checking Software, SPIN 2008, held in Los Angeles, CA, USA, in August 2008. The 17 revised full papers presented together with 1 tool paper and 4 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 41 submissions. The main focus of the workshop series is software systems, including models and programs. The papers cover theoretical and algorithmic foundations as well as tools for software model checking and foster interactions and exchanges of ideas with related areas in software engineering, such as static analysis, dynamic analysis, and testing.
