Description:
To enhance software quality, the software production process requires rigorous methods, firmly grounded on scientifically justified techniques. Fundamental approaches are sought, specially integrating so-called formal and informal aspects, providing the bridge between theory and practice and aimed at producing engineering methods and tools for the various phases of software development. FASE is intended to provide a forum where fundamental approaches are presented, compared and discussed.

Contributions are especially welcome on the following topics:

Methods for the production of provably correct software, its verification and evolution Formalisation of monotonic and non monotonic programs derivations and transformations Integration of informal and formal methods Methods combining programming in the small and programming in the large Formal approaches for reverse engineering and design of software architectures Case studies of applications of formal and semiformal methods Reports evaluating industrial experiences Rigorous experimental studies of effectiveness and applicability of formal methods
