This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods, SEFM 2011, held in Montevideo, Uruguay, in November 2011. The 22 revised regular papers presented together with 1 short paper, 2 tool papers, and 4 keynote talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 105 initial abstracts and 85 full submissions. Besides the regular session the conference held a special track devoted to "Modeling for Sustainable Development" with 5 accepted papers - selected from 7 submissions - that are also part of this volume. The aim of SEFM is to advance the state of the art in formal methods, to scale up their application in software industry and to encourage their integration with practical engineering methods.

What does a probabilistic program actually compute? How can one formally reason about such probabilistic programs? This valuable guide covers such elementary questions and more. It provides a state-of-the-art overview of the theoretical underpinnings of modern probabilistic programming and their applications in machine learning, security, and other domains, at a level suitable for graduate students and non-experts in the field. In addition, the book treats the connection between probabilistic programs and mathematical logic, security (what is the probability that software leaks confidential information?), and presents three programming languages for different applications: Excel tables, program testing, and approximate computing. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

This book is based on material presented at the international summer school on Applied Semantics that took place in Caminha, Portugal, in September 2000. We aim to present some recent developments in programming language research, both in semantic theory and in implementation, in a series of graduate-level lectures. The school was sponsored by the ESPRIT Working Group 26142 on Applied Semantics(APPSEM),whichoperatedbetweenApril1998andMarch2002.The purpose of this working group was to bring together leading reseachers, both in semantic theory and in implementation, with the speci?c aim of improving the communication between theoreticians and practitioners. TheactivitiesofAPPSEMwerestructuredintonineinterdisciplinarythemes: A: Semantics for object-oriented programming B: Program structuring C: Integration of functional languages and proof assistants D: Veri?cation methods E: Automatic program transformation F: Games, sequentiality, and abstract machines G: Types and type inference in programming H: Semantics-based optimization I: Domain theory and real number computation These themes were identi?ed as promising for pro?table interaction between semantic theory and practice, and were chosen to contribute to the following general topics: – description of existing programming language features; – design of new programming language features; – implementation and analysis of programming languages; – transformation and generation of programs; – veri?cation of programs. The chapters in this volume give examples of recent developments covering a broad range of topics of interest to APPSEM.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Third Symposium on Trustworthy Global Computing, TGC 2007; it moreover contains tutorials from the adjacent Workshop on the Interplay of Programming Languages and Cryptography, both held in Sophia-Antipolis, France, in November 2007. The 19 revised papers presented together with 3 invited papers were carefully selected from 48 submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The TGC 2007 symposium papers focus on providing tools and frameworks for constructing well-behaved applications and for reasoning about their behavior and properties in models of computation that incorporate code and data mobility over distributed networks with highly dynamic topologies and heterogeneous devices. The volume concludes with 3 tutorial papers, presented at the co-located Workshop on the Interplay of Programming Languages and Cryptography.

FOSAD has been one of the foremost educational events established with the goal of disseminating knowledge in the critical area of security in computer systems and networks. Offering a good spectrum of current research in foundations of security, FOSAD also proposes panels dedicated to topical open problems, and giving presentations about ongoing work in the field, in order to favour discussions and novel scientific collaborations. This book presents thoroughly revised versions of ten tutorial lectures given by leading researchers during three International Schools on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design, FOSAD 2007/2008/2009, held in Bertinoro, Italy, in September 2007, August 2008, and August/September 2009. The topics covered in this book include cryptographic protocol analysis, program and resource certification, identity management and electronic voting, access and authorization control, wireless security, mobile code and communications security.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 10th IFIP Working Group 6.1 - ternational Conference on Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems (FMOODS 2008).The conference was part of the Third Federated c- ferences on Distributed Computing Techniques (DisCoTec), together with the 10th International Conference on Coordination Models and Languages (COOR- DINATION 2008) and the 8th IFIP International Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems (DAIS 2008). We are grateful to Frank Eliassen and Einar Broch Johnsen of the University of Oslo for the excellent organization of this event in Olso, Norway, June 4–6, 2008. The goal of the FMOODS conferences is to bring together researchers and practitioners whose work encompasses three important and related ?elds: – Formal methods – Distributed systems – Object-based technology The 14 papers presented at FMOODS 2008 and included in this volume were selected by the Program Committee among 35 submissions. Each submission was reviewed by at least three Program Committee members. They all re?ect thescopeoftheconferenceandcoverthe following topics: semantics of obje- oriented programming; formal techniques for speci?cation, analysis, and re?- ment; model checking; theorem proving and deductive veri?cation;type systems and behavioral typing; formal methods for service-oriented computing; integ- tion of quality of service requirements into formal models; formal approaches to component-based design; and applications of formal methods.
