These symposia have been notably successful in bringing together a community of users, researchers, and developers of precise mathematical methods for software development. In 2002 the symposium will be held in conjunction with the third Federated Logic Conference (FLoC'02) in Copenhagen, Denmark. The theme of FME 2002 is Formal Methods: Getting IT Right. The double meaning is intentional. On the one hand, the theme acknowledges the significant contribution formal methods can make to Information Technology, by enabling computer systems to be described precisely and reasoned about with rigour. On the other hand, it recognises that current formal methods are not perfect, and further research and practice are required to improve their foundations, applicability and effectiveness. FME seeks papers in all aspects of formal methods for computer systems, including the following: * theoretical foundations * practical use and case studies * specification and modelling techniques * software development and refinement * tool support and software engineering environments for formal methods * verification and validation * hidden formal methods, and making benefits available to non-experts * reusable domain theories * method integration * hardware verification In addition to presentations of submitted papers, the symposium will offer tutorials, workshops, invited speakers, and tool demonstrations. PAPERS Full papers should be submitted in Postscript or PDF format by e-mail to reach the Program Co-chairs by 15 January 2002. Papers will be refereed by the Program Committee and must be original research papers that have not been submitted elsewhere for publication. Accepted papers will be published in the symposium proceedings. Papers should not exceed twenty pages, although longer papers will be considered if their content justifies it. LNCS format should be used: see http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for details. Please include a short list of keywords on a separate line at the end of the abstract, beginning with the word "Keyword:" in boldface. OTHER SYMPOSIUM ACTIVITIES Tutorials and workshops will be held on 20-21 July 2002. Each tutorial will last one-half or one day. Proposals are welcome, and should be directed to the Program Co-chairs by 15 January 2002; more details will appear on the web-site above. Tool demonstrations will also take place during the symposium, with the opportunity for presentations to be made about each tool. Proposals for tool demonstrations should be made to the Tool Demonstration Coordinator, with whom provison of necessary computing facilities should be discussed.
