Technical Symposium
A selection of five invited talks and 23 outstanding research papers provides
the opportunity to learn about the newest developments in the theory and
application of formal methods. The program (detailed below) covers a wide range of topics,
including real-time and concurrency, design, verification, communication,
runtime monitoring and analysis, constraint analysis, programming language
analysis, formal methods practice, and grand challenge problems.
The best paper award has been won by Annabelle McIver, Carroll Morgan and Carlos Gonzalía for their paper
"Proofs and refutations for probabilistic systems". You can see here a scan of their diploma.
