VECoS encourages the cross-fertil- ization between the various formal verification and evaluation approaches, methods and techniques, especially those developed for concurrent and distributed hardware/software systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Abstraction techniques * Compositional verification * Correct-by-construction design * Rigorous system design * Equivalence checking * Model-checking * Parameterized verification * Performance and robustness evaluation * Probabilistic verification * QoS evaluation, planning and deployment * Dependability assessment techniques * RAMS (Reliability-Availability-Maintainability-Safety) assessment * Model-based Security assessment * Security protocols verification * Discrete-event and hybrid systems Modeling and Simulation * Supervisory control * Verification & validation of IoT * Verification & validation of safety-critical systems * Assessment for real-time systems * Worst-case execution time analysis Application areas of interest to VECoS include: adaptive systems, communication protocols, computer-supported collaborative work systems, cloud computing, cyber-physical systems, high-performance computing, internet of things, logistics systems, manufacturing of the future, mixed criticality systems, mobile and wireless networking, operations research, programming languages, real-time and embedded operating systems, service-oriented systems, telecommunication systems, ubiquitous systems, web services, wireless sensor networks and workflow systems.
