   VECoS 2017 - Lecture Notes in Computer Science
   https://vecos.ensta-paristech.fr/2017/

   11th International Conference on Verification and Evaluation of
   Computer and Communication Systems
   August 24-25, 2017

   Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada

===========================================================================
* Submission deadline is April 24, 2017 *
* Accepted papers will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in
  Computer Science (LNCS) series *
* Extended versions of selected papers will be considered for a special
  issue of Springer ISSE : A NASA Journal
===========================================================================

The VECoS conference series is interested in the analysis of computer and
communication systems in which functional and extra-functional properties
are inter-related. VECoS encourages the cross-fertilization between the
various formal verification and evaluation approaches, methods and
techniques, and especially those developed for concurrent and distributed
hardware/software systems.

Topics of interest to the conference include, but are not limited to:
o Abstraction techniques
o Certification standards for real-time systems
o Compositional verification
o Correct-by-construction design
o Dependability assessment techniques
o Equivalence checking
o Model-checking
o Parameterized verification
o Performance and robustness evaluation
o Probabilistic verification
o QoS evaluation, planning and deployment
o RAMS (Reliability Availability Maintainability Safety) assessment
o Rigorous system design
o Security protocols verification
o Simulation techniques of discrete-event and hybrid systems
o Supervisory control
o Verification & validation of IoT
o Verification & validation of safety-critical systems
o Worst-case execution time analysis

Application areas of VECoS include: adaptive systems, communication
protocols, computer-supported collaborative work systems, cloud computing,
cyber-physical systems, high performance computing, internet of things,
logistics systems, manufactory 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.
