ICFEM 2010 - 12th International Conference on Formal Engineering Methods ICFEM 2010

ICFEM brings together those interested in the application of formal
engineering methods to computer systems. Researchers and
practitioners, from industry, academia, and government, are
encouraged to attend, and to help advance the state of the art. We
are interested in work that has been incorporated into real
production systems, and in theoretical work that promises to bring
practical, tangible benefit.

ICFEM 2010 will be organized by Software Engineering Institute,
East China Normal University. Any inquiries can be sent to
icfem2010-AT-sei.ecnu.edu.cn.

AREA AND TOPICS

Submissions related to the following principal themes are encouraged,
but any topics relevant to the field of formal methods and
their support environments will also be considered:

Formal model-based development and code generation

Abstraction and refinement

Formal specification and modelling

Software verification

Formal approaches to software testing

Software model checking

Formal methods for object and component systems

Analysis and models for concurrency

Formal methods for cloud computing

Tool development and integration

Software safety, security and reliability

Experiments involving verified systems

Applications of formal methods

SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION

Submissions to the conference must not have been published or be
concurrently considered for publication elsewhere. All submissions
will be judged on the basis of originality, contribution to the
field, technical and presentation quality, and relevance to the
conference. The proceedings will be published in the Springer Lecture
Notes in Computer Science series.

Papers should be written in English and not exceed 16 pages in LNCS
format (see http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for
details). A website for uploading papers linked to the conference
webpage (http://www.sei.ecnu.edu.cn/icfem2010/) will be open at the
appropriate time. All queries should be sent to the e-mail address
icfem2010-AT-sei.ecnu.edu.cn.
