Location: Cyprus, Greece
The 14th Overture Workshop
7 November 2016 | Cyprus, Greece | http://overturetool.org/workshops/14th-Overture-Workshop.html
co-located with The Formal Methods Europe Symposium 2016
INTRODUCTION
This workshop is of interest to those working in the filed of Cyber-Physical systems and/or formal modelling. It is the 14th in a series of workshops on the Vienna Development Method (VDM) seen in the open-source Overture setting. Although VDM is one of the oldest formal methods to have enjoyed a level of industry use, it nevertheless has a lively and youthful research community, which has grown up around the development of the Overture open tools platform. On top of the Overture platform the Crescendo and Symphony tools from respectively the DESTECS and COMPASS projects. Currently the Overture tools are being further extended inside the INTO-CPS project (see http://into-cps.au.dk/) as well as in the TEMPO experiment (see http://tempoproject.eu/) supported by the CPSE-Labs project (see http://www.cpse-labs.eu/). The platform provides a vehicle for activity in modelling and analysis technology including static analysis, interpreters, test generation and execution support and model checking. The growth of this community has been greatly assisted by the Overture workshop series.
The workshop aims to provide a forum for discussing and advancing the state of the art in formal modelling and analysis using VDM and its family of associated formalisms including extensions for distributed and real-time systems. We strongly welcome contributions on the development of tools for VDM, cyber physical systems, as well as developments in foundations and reports of practical experience. The page limit is 15 pages.
The scope of the workshop includes, but is not restricted to:
- Reports of applications of VDM technology, especially reports of industrial use.
- Papers describing requirements, designs, implementations and case studies of support tools for VDM, whether or not implemented on the Overture open tools platform.
- Papers on the foundations and methodology associated with VDM and its extensions, including the description of real-time and distributed systems.
- Papers combining VDM with other notations and tools.
- Position papers on VDM and its promotion in industry practice.
- Papers on extensions of Overture including Crescendo, Symphony and VDMPad.
SUBMISSIONS are limited to 15 pages. Accepted papers will be published as a technical report from Aarhus University. Submissions must be unpublished original work and should not be under review or submitted elsewhere while being under consideration. PC members will review all submissions. Papers will be judged on the basis of their clarity, relevance, originality, and contribution to the field. Submissions must be in English and in PDF format through online upload to the workshop submission website at the following URL: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=overture14
IMPORTANT DATES are:
- 1 September 2016: submission deadline for workshop papers
- 1 October 2015: notification to workshop paper authors
- 1 November 2015: final version of workshop papers due
OC/PC CHAIRS are Nico Plat (Thanos, The Netherlands) and Peter Gorm Larsen (Aarhus University, Denmark). We can be reached via e-mail at workshop-oc@overturetool.org. If you intend to submit a paper you are invited to inform us in advance.
