FMOODS 07
9th IFIP International Conference on
Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems
|
The goal
of the FMOODS series of conferences is to bring together researchers and practitioners whose work
encompasses three important and related fields:
-
formal
methods
-
distributed
systems,
-
object-based
technology.
Established
in 1996, the FMOODS series of conferences aims to provide
an integrated forum for research on formal aspects of Open Object-based
Distributed Systems. The conference will especially welcome novel
contributions reflecting recent developments in the area, in particular
component- and model-based design, service-oriented computing and
software quality. Areas of interest include but are not limited to:
-
Semantics
and implementation of object-oriented programming and (visual) modelling languages
-
Formal
techniques for specification, design, analysis, verification, validation and testing
-
Model
checking, theorem proving and deductive verification
-
Type
systems and behavioural typing
-
Formal
methods for service-oriented computing
-
Formal
techniques for security and trust in global computing
-
Formalization
of runtime system evolution (e.g. dynamic updates, reconfiguration)
-
Multiple
viewpoint modelling and consistency between different views
-
Model
transformations and refactorings
-
Integration
of quality of service requirements into formal models
-
Formal
approaches to component-based design
-
Applications
of formal methods (e.g. web services, multimedia, telecommunications)
-
Experience
reports on best practices and tools
The 9th
IFIP International Conference on Formal Methods for Open Object-based Distributed Systems (FMOODS) is
part of the federated conferences DisCoTec (Distributed Computing Techniques), together with the
9th International Conference on Coordination Models and Languages (COORDINATION) and the 7th IFIP
International Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems (DAIS). It will
be organised by the Department of Computer Science of the University of Cyprus.
