Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems: 10th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference, FMOODS 2008, Oslo, Norway, June 4-6, 2008 Proceed [Paperback]

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems, FMOODS 2008, held in Oslo, Norway, in June 2008. The 14 revised full papers presented together with 1 invited lecture were carefully reviewed and selected from 35 submissions. The papers cover topcics such as semantics of object-oriented programming; formal techniques for specification, analysis, and refinement; model checking; theorem proving and deductive verification; type systems and behavioral typing; formal methods for service-oriented computing; integration of quality of service requirements into formal models; formal approaches to component-based design; and applications of formal methods.Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems.- Guiding Distributed Systems Synthesis with Language-Based Security Policies.- Termination Analysis of Java Bytecode.- Sessions and Pipelines for Structured Service Programming.- Modular Preservation of Safety Properties by Cookie-Based DoS-Protection Wrappers.- Behavioural Theory at Work: Program Transformations in a Service-Centred Calculus.- Mechanizing a Correctness Proof for a Lock-Free Concurrent Stack.- Symbolic Step Encodings for Object Based Communicating State Machines.- Modeling and Model Checking Software Product Lines.- Semantic Foundations and Inference of Non-null Annotations.- Redesign of the LMST Wireless Sensor Protocol through Formal Modeling and Statistical Model Checking.- A Minimal Set of Refactoring Rules for Object-Z.- Formal Modeling of a Generic Middleware to Ensure Invariant Properties.- CoBoxes: Unifying Active Objects and Structured Heaps.- VeriCool: An Automatic Verifier for a Concurrent Object-Oriented Language.- A Caller-Side Inline Reference Monitor for an Object-Oriented Intermediate Language.
