Computer Aided Verification: 14th International Conference, CAV 2002 Copenhagen, Denmark, July 27-31, 2002 Proceedings

by Ed Brinksma (Editor), Kim G. Larsen (Editor)

Overview

This volume contains the proceedings of the conference on Computer Aided V- ification (CAV 2002), held in Copenhagen, Denmark on July 27-31, 2002. CAV 2002 was the 14th in a series of conferences dedicated to the advancement of the theory and practice of computer-assisted formal analysis methods for software and hardware systems. The conference covers the spectrum from theoretical - sults to concrete applications, with an emphasis on practical verification tools, including algorithms and techniques needed for their implementation. The coference has traditionally drawn contributions from researchers as well as prac- tioners in both academia and industry. This year we received 94 regular paper submissions out of which 35 were selected. Each submission received an average of 4 referee reviews. In addition, the CAV program contained 11 tool presentations selected from 16 submissions. For each tool presentation, a demo was given at the conference. The large number of tool submissions and presentations testifies to the liveliness of the field and its applied—avor.
