Software Engineering and Formal Methods [electronic resource] : 14th International Conference, SEFM 2016, Held as Part of STAF 2016, Vienna, Austria, July 4-8, 2016, Proceedings /

Abstract

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods, SEFM 2016, held as part of STAF 2016, in Vienna, Austria, in July 2016. The 20 full and 5 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 88 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: concurrency and non-interference; program analysis; model checking; verification; interaction and adaptation; and development methods.Invited Papers -- Abstractions, Semantic Models and Analysis Tools for Concurrent Systems: Progress and Open Problems -- Satisfiability Checking: Theory and Applications -- Concurrency and Non-Interference -- Automatic Derivation of Platform Noninterference Properties -- Linearizability and Causality -- Refinement-based verification of Communicating Unstructured Code -- Guided Dynamic Symbolic Execution Using Subgraph Control-Flow Information (short paper) -- Program Analysis -- Correlating Structured Inputs and Outputs in Functional Specifications -- Combining Predicate Abstraction with Fixpoint Approximations -- Finding Boundary Elements in Ordered Sets with Application to Safety and Requirements Analysis -- Combining Abstract Interpretation with Symbolic Execution for a Static Value Range Analysis of Block Diagrams -- Model Checking -- Program Generation using Simulated Annealing and Model Checking -- LTL Parameter Synthesis of Parametric Timed Automata -- Model checking simulation rules for linearizability -- LTL Model Checking under Fairness in ProB (short paper) -- Verification -- Counterexamples from Proof Failures in SPARK -- Proving Termination of Programs with Bitvector Arithmetic by Symbolic Execution -- SMT-based automatic proof of ASM model refinement -- Coq Implementation of OO Verification Framework VeriJ (short paper) -- Towards a Proof Framework for Information Systems with Weak Consistency (short paper) -- Interaction and Adaptation -- A Cognitive Framework based on Rewriting Logic for the Analysis of Interactive Systems -- Incentive Stackelberg Mean-payoff Games -- Stability-based Adaptation of Asynchronously Communicating Software -- Compliance Checking in the Open Payments Ecosystem (short paper) -- Development Methods -- CoCoSpec: A mode aware contract language -- Modularizing Crosscutting Concerns in Component-Based Systems -- Tightening a Contract Refinement -- BMotionWeb: A Tool for Rapid Creation of Formal Prototypes.This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods, SEFM 2016, held as part of STAF 2016, in Vienna, Austria, in July 2016.
