Annotation. This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Integrated Formal Methods, IFM 2010, held in Nancy, France, in October 2010. The 20 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 59 submissions. The papers address the spectrum of integrated formal methods, ranging from formal and semiformal notations, semantics, refinement, verification and model transformations to type systems, logics, tools and case studies.

Integrated Formal Methods

Jun Pang

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Formal Engineering Methods, ICFEM 2014, held in Luxembourg, Luxembourg, in November 2014. The 28 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 73 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics in the area of formal methods and software engineering and are devoted to advancing the state of the art of applying formal methods in practice. They focus in particular on combinations of conceptual and methodological aspects with their formal foundation and tool support.

Formal Methods and Software Engineering

Manfred Broy

Katharina Spies

The RPC-memory specification problem was proposed by Broy and Lamport as a case study in the formal design of distributed and concurrent systems. As a realistic example typical for operating systems and hardware design, the RPC-memory problem was used as the basis for comparing various approaches to formal specification, refinement, and verification. Preliminary solutions were discussed during a workshop at Schloss Dagstuhl, Germany, in September 1994. Then an extensive discussion took place between the referees and authors. Finally 15 thoroughly revised papers were accepted for inclusion in this volume in full detail together with the problem statement and a synopsis.

The RPC-Memory Specification Case Study

Formal Systems Specification

Fred Kröger

Temporal logic has developed over the last 30 years into a powerful formal setting for the specification and verification of state-based systems. Based on university lectures given by the authors, this book is a comprehensive, concise, uniform, up-to-date presentation of the theory and applications of linear and branching time temporal logic; TLA (Temporal Logic of Actions); automata theoretical connections; model checking; and related theories. All theoretical details and numerous application examples are elaborated carefully and with full formal rigor, and the book will serve as a basic source and reference for lecturers, graduate students and researchers.

Temporal Logic and State Systems

Nicolas Navet

This title is devoted to presenting some of the most importantconcepts and techniques for describing real-time systems andanalyzing their behavior in order to enable the designer to achieveguarantees of temporal correctness. Topics addressed include mathematical models of real-timesystems and associated formal verification techniques such as modelchecking, probabilistic modeling and verification, programming anddescription languages, and validation approaches based on testing.With contributions from authors who are experts in their respectivefields, this will provide the reader with the state of the art informal verification of real-time systems and an overview ofavailable software tools.

Modeling and Verification of Real-time Systems

Jasmin Christian Blanchette

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving, ITP 2016, held in Nancy, France, in August 2016. The 27 full papers and 5 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The topics range from theoretical foundations to implementation aspects and applications in program verification, security and formalization of mathematical theories.
