GENERAL INFORMATION 

Since 1997, ICFEM has been serving as an international forum for
researchers and practitioners who have been seriously applying formal
methods to practical applications. Researchers and practitioners, from
industry, academia, and government, are encouraged to attend, present
their research, and 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 and
tangible benefit. ICFEM 2015 is organised and sponsored by the
University Paris-Sud and CNAM Paris.

SCOPE OF THE CONFERENCE

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

 - Abstraction and refinement
 - Formal specification and modeling
 - Program analysis
 - Software verification
 - Software model checking
 - Formal approaches to software testing
 - Formal methods for self-adaptive systems, for object and component
    systems, concurrent and real-time systems, for cloud computing and
    cyber-physical systems, for software safety, security, reliability
    and dependability
 - Tool development, integration and experiments involving verified
    systems
 - Formal methods used in certifying products under international
    standards
 - Formal model-based development and code generation


This year, ICFEM will have special tracks on application of formal
methods in three areas:
 
 - Computer security
 - Aeronautics
 - Train control systems

Submissions in these topics are especially encouraged. Papers in these
areas will be subject to the same rigorous review process as other
papers. Accepted special track papers will be organised into special
sessions.


INVITED SPEAKERS 
 - Ana Cavalcanti, University of York, UK
   http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~alcc/

 - Sava Krstic, Intel corporation, USA


TYPES OF CONTRIBUTIONS

 - Research papers (max. 16 pages) describing results of theoretical
    or experimental research, which must be original, significant, and
    sound. Submissions to the conference must not have been published or
    be concurrently considered for publication elsewhere.

- Tool papers (max. 6 pages) describing new tools or new features of
   existing tools, without necessary giving the theoretical background
   details. Benchmarks or experiences are strongly encouraged. The tools
   must be available for use by the reviewers.

SUBMISSIONS AND PUBLICATION 

All contributions to ICFEM'15 have to be submitted electronically in
PDF format via easy chair. All submissions have to follow the Springer
LNCS paper format. Simultaneous submission to other conferences with
proceedings or submission of papers that have already been published
elsewhere is not allowed.
