****************************************************
The Eleventh NASA Formal Methods Symposium
https://robonaut.jsc.nasa.gov/R2/pages/nfm2019.html
7 - 9 May 2019
Rice University, Houston, Texas, USA
****************************************************
*** Hotel Block Closing March 15! ***
Theme of the Symposium:
-----------------------
The widespread use and increasing complexity of mission-critical and
safety-critical systems at NASA and in the aerospace industry require
advanced techniques that address these systems' specification, design,
verification, validation, and certification requirements. The NASA
Formal Methods Symposium (NFM) is a forum to foster collaboration
between theoreticians and practitioners from NASA, academia, and
industry. NFM's goals are to identify challenges and to provide
solutions for achieving assurance for such critical systems.
New developments and emerging applications like autonomous software for
uncrewed deep space human habitats, caretaker robotics, Unmanned Aerial
Systems (UAS), UAS Traffic Management (UTM), and the need for
system-wide fault detection, diagnosis, and prognostics provide new
challenges for system specification, development, and verification
approaches. The focus of these symposiums are on formal techniques and
other approaches for software assurance, including their theory, current
capabilities and limitations, as well as their potential application to
aerospace, robotics, and other NASA-relevant safety-critical systems
during all stages of the software life-cycle.
The NASA Formal Methods Symposium is an annual event organized by the
NASA Formal Methods (NFM) Steering Committee, comprised of researchers
spanning several NASA centers. NFM 2019
(https://robonaut.jsc.nasa.gov/R2/pages/nfm2019.html) is being
co-organized by Rice University and NASA- Johnson Space Center in
Houston, TX.
Location & Cost:
----------------
The symposium will take place in the McMurtry Auditorium, Rice
University, Houston, Texas, USA, May 7--9, 2019. Travel information and
discounted hotel reservations can be found at:
