        3rd IEEE^1  International Symposium on
              Leveraging Applications
of Formal Methods, Verification and Validation

13-16 October 2008 - Porto Sani Resort, Kassandra (Greece)

          http://www.cs.uni-potsdam.de/isola2008

ISoLA is a forum for developers, users, and researchers to discuss
issues related to the adoption and use of rigorous tools for the
specification analysis, verification, certification, construction, test,
and maintenance of systems from the point of view of their different
application domains.
To bridge the gap between designers and developers of (formal
methods based) rigorous tools, and users in engineering and in
other disciplines, it fosters and exploits synergetic relationships
among scientists, engineers, software developers, decision makers, and
other critical thinkers.
In particular, by providing a venue for the discussion of common
problems, requirements, algorithms, methodologies, and practices,
ISoLA aims at supporting researchers in their quest to
improve the utility, reliability, flexibility and efficiency of tools
for building systems and users in their search of adequate solutions to
their problems. Applications and case studies with a conceptual message
and experience papers with a clear link to tool construction are all
encouraged.
