We solicit submissions to the Doctoral Track of FACS 2018, in the form of
abstracts (3 pages max, LNCS format) describing PhD-work-in-progress,
related
theme, context, research questions, envisaged contributions, and partial
results related to the topics of FACS. All accepted abstracts will appear
in the Doctoral Track proceedings of FACS 2018.
Paper submission will be done electronically via
EasyChair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=facs2018
OVERVIEW AND SCOPE
FACS 2018 is concerned with how formal methods can be applied to
component-based software and system development. Formal methods have
provided foundations for component-based software through research on
mathematical models for components, composition and adaptation, and
rigorous approaches to verification, deployment, testing, and
certification.
The conference seeks to address the application of
formal methods in all aspects of software components and
services. Specific topics include, but are not limited to:
* formal models for software components and their interaction;
* formal aspects of services, service-oriented architectures, business
processes, cloud computing, cyber-physical systems, Internet of
Things, and similar artifacts;
* design and verification methods for software components and services;
* composition and deployment: models, calculi, languages;
* formal methods and modeling languages for components and services;
* models for QoS and other extra-functional properties (e.g., trust,
compliance, security) of components and services;
* components for real-time, safety-critical, secure, and/or embedded
systems;
* components for the Internet of things and cyber-physical systems;
* probabilistic techniques for modeling and verification of
component-based systems;
* model-based testing of components and services;
* case studies and experience reports;
* tools supporting formal methods for components and services.
