CfP: VECoS 2017
Call for Papers
11th International Conference on Verification and Evaluation of Computer and Communication Systems
August 24-25, 2017 Montreal, Canada | https://vecos.ensta-paristech.fr/2017/
The VECoS conference series is interested in the analysis of computer and communication systems in which functional and extra-functional properties are inter-related. VECoS encourages the cross-fertilization between the various formal verification and evaluation approaches, methods and techniques, and especially those developed for concurrent and distributed hardware/software systems.
Topics of interest to the conference include, but are not limited to:
- -Abstraction techniques
- -Certification standards for real-time systems
- -Compositional verification
- -Correct-by-construction design
- -Dependability assessment techniques
- -Equivalence checking
- -Model-checking
- -Parameterized verification
- -Performance and robustness evaluation
- -Probabilistic verification
- -QoS evaluation, planning and deployment
- -RAMS (Reliability Availability Maintainability Safety) assessment
- -Rigorous system design
- -Security protocols verification
- -Simulation techniques of discrete-event and hybrid systems
- -Supervisory control
- -Verification & validation of IoT
- -Verification & validation of safety-critical systems
- -Worst-case execution time analysis
Application areas of VECoS include: adaptive systems, communication protocols, computer-supported collaborative work systems, cloud computing, cyber-physical systems, high performance computing, internet of things, logistics systems, manufactory of the future, mixed criticality systems, mobile and wireless networking, operations research, programming languages, real-time and embedded operating systems, service oriented systems, telecommunication systems, ubiquitous systems, web services, wireless sensor networks and workflow systems.
