Abstract

There is an increasing demand in industry to use formal methods to achieve software–independent verification and validation of safety–critical systems, e.g., in fields such as avionics, automotive, medical, and other cyber–physical systems. Newer standards, such as DO–178C (avionics) and ISO 26262 (automotive), emphasize the need for formal methods and model–based development, speeding up the adaptation of such methods in industry. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers who are interested in the application of formal and semi–formal methods to improve the quality of safety–critical computer systems. In particular, FTSCS strives strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in industrial applications of formal methods. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: * case studies and experience reports on the use of formal methods for analyzing safety–critical systems, including avionics, automotive, medical, and other kinds of safety–critical and QoS–critical systems * methods, techniques and tools to support automated analysis, certification, debugging, etc., of complex safety/QoS–critical systems * analysis methods that address the limitations of formal methods in industry (usability, scalability, etc.) * formal analysis support for modeling languages used in industry, such as AADL, Ptolemy, SysML, SCADE, Modelica, etc. * code generation from validated models.
