Formal Modeling And Analysis Of Timed Systems

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2016, held in Quebec, QC, Canada, in August 2016. The 14 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 32 initial submissions. They are organized in topical sections entitled: modeling timed phenomena; stochasticity and hybrid control; real-time verification and synthesis; workload analysis.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2008, held in Saint Malo, France, September 2008. The 17 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 37 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on extensions of timed automata and semantics; timed games and logic; case studies; model-checking of probabilistic systems; verification and test; timed petri nets.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2009, held in Budapest, Hungary, September 2009. The 18 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. The aim of FORMATS is to promote the study of fundamental and practical aspects of timed systems, and to bring together researchers from different disciplines that share interests in the modelling and analysis of timed systems.Typical topics include (but are not limited to): – Foundations and Semantics. Theoretical foundations of timed systems and languages; comparison between different models (timed automata, timed Petri nets, hybrid automata, timed process algebra, max-plus algebra, probabilistic models). – Methods and Tools. Techniques, algorithms, data structures, and software tools for analyzing timed systems and resolving temporal constraints (scheduling, worst-case execution time analysis, optimization, model checking, testing, constraint solving, etc.). – Applications. Adaptation and specialization of timing technology in application domains in which timing plays an important role (real-time software, hardware circuits, and problems of scheduling in manufacturing and telecommunication).

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2017, held in Berlin, Germany, in September 2017.​ The aim of FORMATS is to promote the study of fundamental and practical aspects of timed systems, and to bring together researchers from different disciplines that share interests in modelling and analysis of timed systems and, as a generalization, hybrid systems.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2005, held in Uppsala, Sweden in September 2005 in conjunction with ARTIST2 summer school on Component Modelling, Testing and Verification, and Static analysis of embedded systems. The 19 revised full papers presented together with the abstracts of 3 invited talks were carefully selected from 43 submissions. The papers cover work on semantics and modeling of timed systems, formalisms for modeling and verification including timed automata, hybrid automata, and timed petri nets, games for verification and synthesis, model-checking, case studies and issues related to implementation, security and performance analysis.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2011, held in Aalborg, Denmark, in September 2011. The 20 revised full papers presented together with three invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on probabilistic methods, robustness, games, verification and testing, verification, hybrid systems, and applications.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2014, held in Florence, Italy, in September 2014. The 17 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 36 submissions. The papers cover topics of foundations and semantics; comparison between different models, such as timed automata, timed Petri nets, hybrid automata, timed process algebra, max-plus algebra, probabilistic models; methods and tools for analyzing timed systems and resolving temporal constraints; applications in real-time software, hardware circuits, and problems of scheduling in manufacturing and telecommunication.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Formal Modeling and Analysis of Timed Systems, FORMATS 2015, held in Madrid, Spain, in September 2015. The conference was organized under the umbrella of Madrid Meet 2015, a one week event focussing on the areas of formal and quantitative analysis of systems, performance engineering, computer safety, and industrial critical applications. The 19 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 initial submissions.
