SFM 2014 was devoted to executable software models and covered topics such as variability models, automated analysis techniques, deductive verification, and runtime assessment and testing. The papers collected in the two parts (first part: modeling and verification; second part: run-time assessment and testing) of this volume represent the broad range of topics of the school.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Integrated Formal Methods, IFM 2013, held in Turku, Finland, in June 2013.

The 17 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 45 submissions. The papers are organized in topcical sections on model checking rewriting logic components and services algebraic calculi specification, verification and refinenment, and quality of service.

This Festschrift, dedicated to Reiner Hahnle on the occasion of his 60th birthday, contains papers written by many of his closest collaborators.After positions at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and Chalmers University of Technology, since 2011 Reiner has been the chaired professor of Software Engineering at Technische Universitat Darmstadt, where his team focuses on the formal verification of object-oriented software, the formal modeling and specification of highly adaptive software systems, and formal modeling and analysis in domains such as biological systems and railroad operations. His work is characterized by achievements in theory and in practical implementations, significant collaborations include the KeY project and the development of the ABS language. He has served as chair and editor of important related academic conferences, and coauthored almost 200 academic publications. The contributions in this volume reflect Reiner's main research focus: formal methods, in particular applied to software verification.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th IFIP WG 2.14 European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, ESOCC 2017, held in Oslo, Norway, in September 2017. The 6 short and 10 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 37 submissions. The volume also contains one invited talk in full paper length. The contributions were organized in topical sections named: microservices and containers; security; cloud resources; services; internet of things and data streams; and industrial applications of service and cloud computing.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Tests and Proofs, TAP 2017, held as part of STAF 2017, in Marburg, Germany, in July 2017. The 9 full papers and 1 invited paper presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 16 submissions. The TAP conference promotes research in verification and formal methods that targets the interplay of proofs and testing: the advancement of techniques of each kind and their combination, with the ultimate goal of improving software and system dependability.

This open access book constitutes the proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering, FASE 2022, which was held during April 4-5, 2022, in Munich, Germany, as part of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software, ETAPS 2022. The 17 regular papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 64 submissions. The proceedings also contain 3 contributions from the Test-Comp Competition. The papers deal with the foundations on which software engineering is built, including topics like software engineering as an engineering discipline, requirements engineering, software architectures, software quality, model-driven development, software processes, software evolution, AI-based software engineering, and the specification, design, and implementation of particular classes of systems, such as (self-)adaptive, collaborative, AI, embedded, distributed, mobile, pervasive, cyber-physical, or service-oriented applications.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, ESOCC 2016, held in Vienna, Austria, in September 2016. The 16 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on policies and performance, adaptation, SLA-aware services, job placement, compositionality, and fault tolerance.

This Festschrift volume has been published in honor of Frank de Boer, on the occasion of his 60th birthday. Frank S. de Boer is a prominent member of the research community in formal methods and theoretical computer science. A brief look at his lengthy publication list reveals a broad area of interest and a versatile modus operandi with: logic and constraint programming; deductive proof systems, soundness, and completeness; semantics, compositionality, and full abstraction; process algebra and decidability; multithreading and actor-based concurrency; agent programming, ontologies, and modal logic; real-time systems, timed automata, and schedulability; enterprise architectures, choreography, and coordination; testing and runtime monitoring; and cloud computing and service-level agreements. For a while, he also liked failures, especially in semantics, and optimistically concluded with the failure of failures. In fact, Frank has an opportunistic approach to research. Rather than seeing obstacles, he finds opportunities.

This book presents 5 tutorial lectures given by leading researchers at the 15th edition of the International School on Formal Methods for the Design of Computer, Communication and Software Systems, SFM 2015, held in Bertinoro, Italy, in June 2015. SFM 2015 was devoted to multicore programming and covered topics such as concurrency and coordination mechanisms, architecture and memory models and type systems.
