Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation: 4th International Conference, VMCAI 2003, New York, NY, USA, January 9-11, 2003, Proceedings: 2575 (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2575) - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

This volume contains the proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Veri?cation, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation (VMCAI 2003), held in New York city, January 9-11, 2003. The purpose of VMCAI was to provide a forum for researchers from three communities-Veri?cation, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation-that will facilitate interaction, cross-fertilization, and the advance of hybrid methods that combine the three areas. With the g- wingneedforformaltoolstoreasonaboutcomplex,in?nite-state,andembedded systems, such hybrid methods are bound to be of great importance. Topics covered by VMCAI include program veri?cation, static analysis te- niques, model checking, program certi?cation, type systems, abstract domains, debugging techniques, compiler optimization, embedded systems, and formal analysis of security protocols. VMCAI 2003 was the fourth VMCAI meeting. The previous three were held as workshops (Port Je?erson 1997, Pisa 1998, and Venice 2002). It is the success of the last meeting, and the wide response it generated, that made it clear the time had come to make it an annual conference.

Reseña del editor

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation, VMCAI 2003, held in New York, NY, USA in January 2003.

The 20 revised full papers presented together with five invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on static analysis, dynamic systems, abstract interpretation, model checking, security protocols, and formal methods.
