GENERAL INFORMATION
---------------------

The large amount of applications in industrial sectors (e.g. telecom,
medical, and energy) has many mission critical issues (e.g. security,
reliability). The competence of industry applications to ensure the
critical missions determines the competitive strengths in the
market. On one hand, industrial companies have introduced and
developed testing technologies and tools in industrial contexts, and
applied them in these applications. On the other hand, academic
researchers have produced and performed theoretical or experimental
research for the similar topics. This workshop aims to increase
scientific interaction and cooperation between academic researchers
and industrial practitioners in the area of critical industry
applications. It provides an excellent platform for the exchange of
ideas, discussion, cross-fertilization, inspiration, and
co-operation. Both researchers and practitioners will present their
results and experience to a broader audience.


Scope of the Workshop
---------------------
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
· Methods, techniques and tools to support testing
· Different aspects of testing including functional, performance,
  security, etc.
· System specification and validation
· Application of model checking in testing
· Model based testing
· Testing processes in industry
· Theoretical foundations in testing
· Case studies and experience reports on critical industrial
  applications
