*Call for Book Chapters * *Book Title:* Guide to Software Verification with Frama-C. Core Components, Usages, and Applications. *Edited book to be published by Springer * *Editors: *Nikolai Kosmatov, Virgile Prevosto, Julien Signoles *Description * This book aims at presenting Frama-C, an open source platform for analyzing C source code. It fosters collaborations between various techniques, by letting individual analyzers exchange information about the properties they can handle. In a similar manner, the platform is meant to be easily extensible, in particular, by third-party developers. Finally, Frama-C is aimed at being usable by software engineers that are not necessarily experts in formal methods. This implies providing as much automation as possible, as well as assessing the performances of the platform on real-world case studies. The purpose of this book is to provide a panorama of the platform, its core components, its usages, and its applications. Frama-C is not a single tool, but a framework that groups together several tools. Each tool is provided as a plug-in. Roughly speaking, the plug-ins distributed with the platform can be decomposed in the following broad categories: * verification plug-ins; * plug-ins supporting the verification process; * plug-ins for better understanding the analyzed code; * plug-ins for simplifying the analyzed code; * plug-ins for extending the expressiveness of other analyzers. Many industries in various domains rely on Frama-C to ensure safety and/or security of their critical applications. The extensibility of the platform allowed industrial engineers and tool developers to abstract from the groundwork of code parsing and data structure design, and to focus on new forms of verification. *Target Audience *This book targets a large audience of readers interested in software verification and validation. They include industrial practitioners interested in verification of specific software products or development of new verification tools. They also include evaluation and certification authorities working on certification of critical software. Finally, this book will provide a helpful source of information to university professors and students taking courses in software analysis and verification. As a preliminary background, the book will assume only a basic knowledge of the C programming language. In particular, the readers will not need to be familiar with Formal Methods. *Information for authors * Authors are invited to submit chapter proposals related to Frama-C on the following (non-exhaustive) list of topics: * core verification techniques, * advanced usages, * combination of analysis techniques, * case studies and industrial applications, * emerging domains. A chapter is expected to contain around 20-30 pages. The chapters will be blind-reviewed. Whenever possible, authors should try to make chapters self-contained. *Submission * The authors will be asked to use the Springer Latex Template. Precise instructions on the Latex template and formatting will be communicated later. *Important dates * * Declaration of intention by the authors with an abstract of a few lines: at your earliest convenience, ideally before July 15, 2021 * Chapter Submission deadline: November 1st, 2021 * Notification: February 1, 2022 * Final submission: September 1, 2022 * Expected publication by Springer: End of 2022 *Contact Information * Email: nikolaikosmatov@gmail.com , virgile.prevosto@cea.fr , julien.signoles@cea.fr
