The sixth MEMOCODE conference will gather researchers and
practitioners who design modern hardware/software systems.  MEMOCODE's
mission is to consider new formal and systematic techniques for the
design of dependable hardware/software systems.  Many new languages,
abstractions, refinement, and analysis techniques have already proven
to provide a sound methodological basis for high-level modeling,
design, and development of hardware and software systems, including
the adaptation and re-use of existing components.
