In recent years, software-based systems have experienced a continuous growth in dimensions, complexity, and significance in a very wide range of fields and applications. Unsurprisingly, this central role of software systems has gone hand in hand with an increase of critical errors and failures that in the worst scenario may lead to data leakage, security holes, and system violation.
In this context, formal methods have been the de facto tool for ensuring the correctness of software with respect to a set of specifications. They enable the validation of complex systems in an automated (or, semiautomated) way reducing manual efforts. Nevertheless, a low percentage of software is proved correct by the
use of formal techniques.
The main goal of these formal methods for the validation of software-based systems. Research contributions can report new results and evidences on the scalability of existing tools to large code base of software, development of new methodologies for program analysis and verification, application of formal methods to new research areas, and industrial tools for proving system correctness.
Topics include, but not limited to:
- Abstract interpretation
- Deductive system
- Model checking
- Program analysis
- Program certification
- Program optimization
- Program synthesis
- Program verification
- Programs and languages specification
- Programming languages and semantics
- Run-time monitoring
- Security of software for cyber-physical systems
- Type systems
