NFM 2012 PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENDED

Fourth NASA Formal Methods Symposium

Norfolk, Virginia, USA

April 3 - 5, 2012

--------------------------------------------------

Theme of Conference:

--------------------------------------------------

The NASA Formal Methods Symposium is a forum for theoreticians and

practitioners from academia, industry, and government, with the goals of

identifying challenges and providing solutions to achieving assurance

in mission- and safety-critical systems. Within NASA, for example, such

systems include autonomous robots, separation assurance algorithms for

aircraft, Next Generation Air Transportation (NextGen), and autonomous

rendezvous and docking for spacecraft. Moreover, emerging paradigms such

as code generation and safety cases are bringing with them new challenges

and opportunities. The focus of the symposium will be on formal

techniques, their theory, current capabilities, and limitations, as

well as their application to aerospace, robotics, and other

safety-critical systems.

--------------------------------------------------

Topics of Interest:

--------------------------------------------------

* Formal verification, including theorem proving, model checking,

and static analysis

* Automated test generation and testing techniques for safety-critical
systems

* Model-based development

* Techniques and algorithms for scaling formal methods, such as abstraction

and symbolic methods, compositional techniques, as well as parallel and

distributed techniques

* Monitoring and runtime verification

* Code generation from formally verified models

* Significant applications of formal methods to aerospace systems

* Modeling and verification aspects of cyber-physical systems

* Safety cases

* Accident/safety analysis

* Formal approaches to fault tolerance

* Theoretical advances and empirical evaluations of formal methods

* Techniques for safety-critical systems, including hybrid and embedded
systems

* Formal methods in systems engineering

--------------------------------------------------

Submissions:

--------------------------------------------------

There are two categories of submissions:

* Regular papers describing fully developed work and complete

results (15 pages/30 minute talks)

* Short papers describing tools, experience reports, or descriptions of
work

in progress or?preliminary results (6 pages/15 minute talks)

All papers should be in English and describe original work that has not
been

published or submitted elsewhere. All submissions will be fully reviewed by

members of the program committee. Papers must use the LNCS style and be put

in PDF format in anticipation that we will publish accepted papers
(including

regular papers and short papers) in a formal proceedings. Papers should be

submitted through the following link:
