As software systems become increasingly ubiquitous, issues of dependability become ever more crucial. Given that solutions to these issues must be considered from the very beginning of the design process, it is reasonable that dependability and security are addressed at the architectural level. This book has originated from an effort to bring together the research communities of software architectures, dependability and security.

This state-of-the-art survey contains expanded and peer-reviewed papers based on the carefully selected contributions to two workshops: the Workshop on Architecting Dependable Systems (WADS 2008), organized at the 2008 International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks (DSN 2008), held in Anchorage, Alaska, USA, in June 2008, and the Third International Workshop on Views On Designing Complex Architectures (VODCA 2008) held in Bertinoro, Italy, in August 2008. It also contains invited papers written by recognized experts in the area. The 13 papers are organized in topical sections on dependable service-oriented architectures, fault-tolerance and system evaluation, and architecting security.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Integrated Formal Methods, IFM 2022, held in Lugano, Switzerland, in June 2022. The 14 full papers and 2 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. The papers are categorized into the following topical sub-headings: Invited Papers; Cooperative and Relational Verification; B Method; Time; Probability; learning and Synthesis; Security; Stats Analysis and Testing; PhD Symposium Presentations.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 24th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Coordination Models and Language, COORDINATION 2022, held in Lucca, Italy, in June 2022, as part of the 17th International Federated Conference on Distributed Computing Techniques, DisCoTec 2022. The 11 regular papers and one short paper presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 22 submissions. COORDINATION provides a well-established forum for the growing community of researchers interested in coordination models and languages, architectures, verification and implementation techniques necessary to cope with the complexity induced by the demands of today's software development.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd Symposium on Formal Methods, FM 2019, held in Porto, Portugal, in the form of the Third World Congress on Formal Methods, in October 2019. The 44 full papers presented together with 3 invited presentations were carefully reviewed and selected from 129 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections named: Invited Presentations; Verification; Synthesis Techniques; Concurrency; Model Checking Circus; Model Checking; Analysis Techniques; Specification Languages; Reasoning Techniques; Modelling Languages; Learning-Based Techniques and Applications; Refactoring and Reprogramming; I-Day Presentations.

This volume was published in honor of Stefania Gnesi's 65th birthday. The Festschrift volume contains 32 papers written by close collaborators and friends of Stefania and was presented to her on October 8, 2019 one-day colloquium held in Porto, Portugal, The Festschrift consists of eight sections, seven of which reflect the main research areas to which Stefania has contributed. Following a survey of Stefania's legacy in research and a homage by her thesis supervisor, these seven sections are ordered according to Stefania's life cycle in research, from software engineering to formal methods and tools, and back: Software Engineering; Formal Methods and Tools; Requirements Engineering; Natural Language Processing; Software Product Lines; Formal Verification; and Applications.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 25th International Workshop on Formal Methods for Industrial Critical Systems, FMICS 2020, which was held during September 2-3, 2020. The conference was planned to take place in Vienna, Austria. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic it changed to a virtual event.The 11 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections as follows: Quantitative Analysis and Cyber-Physical Systems, Formal Verification of Industrial Systems, Temporal Logic and Model Checking. The book also contains a lengthy report on a Formal Methods Survey conducted on occasion of the 25th edition of the conference.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Joint 21st International Workshop on Formal Methods for Industrial Critical Systems and the 16th International Workshop on Automated Verification of Critical Systems, FMICS-AVoCS 2016, held in Pisa, Italy, in September 2016.The 11 full papers and 4 short papers presented together with one invited talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. They are organized in the following sections: automated verification techniques; model-based system analysis; and applications and case studies.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Web Services and Formal Methods, WS-FM 2012, held in Tallinn, Estonia, in September 2012. The 9 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 19 submissions. They cover aspects such as the modeling and analysis of web services, service discovery, and service coordination with formal methods like BPEL, CSP, Maude, and Petri nets.
