Scope

The aim of the <span style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34)">FMICS</span> workshop series is to provide a forum for
researchers who are interested in the development and application of
formal methods in industry. In particular, <span style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34)">FMICS</span> brings together
scientists and engineers that are active in the area of formal
methods and interested in exchanging their experiences in the
industrial usage of these methods. The <span style="background-image:initial;background-color:rgb(255,255,204);color:rgb(34,34,34)">FMICS</span> workshop series also
strives to promote research and development for the improvement of
formal methods and tools for industrial applications.

Workshop Proceedings will be published in Springer&#39;s LNCS series. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

       * Design, specification, code generation and testing based on
         formal methods.

       * Methods, techniques and tools to support automated analysis,
         certification, debugging, learning, optimization and
         transformation of complex, distributed, real-time systems
         and embedded systems.

       * Verification and validation methods that address
         shortcomings of existing methods with respect to their
         industrial applicability (e.g., scalability and usability
         issues).

       * Tools for the development of formal design descriptions.

       * Case studies and experience reports on industrial
         applications of formal methods, focusing on lessons learned
         or identification of new research directions.

       * Impact of the adoption of formal methods on the development
         process and associated costs.

       * Application of formal methods in standardization and
         industrial forums.
