Call for Participation
2nd Workshop on Formal Verification of Physical Systems (FVPS 2019)
                  Colocated with CICM 2019
                    July 8, 2019
              Prague, Czech Republic

=============================================================

======
Theme
======

The objective of the workshop is to gather scientists and engineers
interested
in formal verification techniques for the modeling, analysis, and
verification
of safety and security critical physical systems. We encourage submissions
on
interdisciplinary approaches that bring together formal methods and
techniques
from other knowledge areas such as quantum computing, control theory,
biology,
optimization theory, and artificial intelligence.

==============
Topics of Interest
==============

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
General Topics
Formalization of mathematics and physics theories
Interactive and automated theorem proving for physical systems
Model Checking algorithms and tools for physical systems
Formalization of security and safety of physical systems
Runtime verification of safety and security properties
Combination of formal, semi-formal and informal approaches
Formal verification of numerical algorithms
Refinement based verification of physical systems
Formalization of probability, reliability and statistical metrics
Hybrid systems
Benchmarks for physical systems
Formal requirement specification and validation
Formal verification and International Standards (e.g., ISO 26262, IEC
61508, DO 178)
Formal verification for safety cases
Application Domain
Aerospace and avionics systems
Automotive cyber-physical systems
Robotics
Smart-grids
Smart transportation
Human factor modeling and analysis
Biological and healthcare systems
