SBMF 2016 is the nineteenth of a series of events devoted to the development, dissemination and use of formal methods for the construction of high–quality computational systems. It is now a well–established event, with an international reputation.<br>SBMF 2016 will take place in Natal, the capital of the state Rio Grande do Norte, that is located in the northeast region in Brazil. Natal is a portal of entry to South America: near to the point closest to Europe and Africa. Natal is a modern and lively town that emerged between a river and the sea; it is adorned by dunes and lots of green areas: a land of colours and flavours, where you find leisure and adventure. In Natal, it is Summer all year round, in a unique coastline of breathtaking beaches, lakes, wilderness, culinary, tours, art and culture, together with the great natural hospitality of its people.<br>Natal is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. It has around 800,000 inhabitants and receives more than 2 million / year tourists from Brazil and abroad. Visitors are dazzled by more than 400 km of Atlantic Coast strolling through beautiful beaches, many of which visited in thrilling buggy rides between sea, dunes and lagoons. It is known as the "Sun City", and is also remembered as "World Buggy Capital" and "Land of Shrimp". Natal is the city where a brazilian dance, called Forró – "For All" – was born.<br>The aim of SBMF is to provide a venue for the presentation and discussion of high–quality work in formal methods. The topics include, but are not limited to, the following:<br>techniques and methodologies, such as method integration; software and hardware co–design; model–driven engineering; formal aspects of popular methodologies; formal design; development methodologies with formal foundations; software evolution based on formal methods;<br>specification and modeling languages, such as well–founded specification and design languages; formal aspects of popular languages; logics and semantics for programming and specification languages; code generation; formal methods and models for objects, aspects, component–based, real–time, hybrid, critical, and service–oriented systems;<br>theoretical foundations, such as domain theory; type systems and category theory; computational complexity of methods and models; computational models; term rewriting; models of concurrency, security and mobility;<br>verification and validation, such as abstraction, modularization and refinement techniques; program and test synthesis; correctness by construction; model checking; theorem proving; static analysis; formal techniques for software testing; software certification; formal techniques for software inspection;<br>education, such as teaching of, for and with formal methods;<br>applications, such as experience reports on the use of formal methods; industrial case studies; tool support.<br>
