ProCoS 2015 - 2015 ProCoS Workshop on Provably Correct Systems

The ProCoS I/II projects and the associated ProCoS-US initiative ran from 1989-1995, followed by the ProCoS-WG Working Group of 25 partners. The projects aimed to perform research in the fundamental technical aspects of a development process for critical embedded systems, from the original capture of requirements all the way down to the computers and special purpose hardware on which the programs run. The projects were significant in their contributions to provably correct systems, and led directly to a better general understanding of the relationship between a range of theories, and how their combination can be used in the planning and development of critical software tasks. This event marks these 20th and 25th anniversaries of ProCoS to look back at its achievements and to identify key research that will contribute to the next generation of provably correct systems, with invited talks by leading international computer science researchers, many directly involved with the original ProCoS projects.
