OVERVIEW AND SCOPE

Component-based software development proposes sound engineering
principles and techniques to cope with the complexity of
present-day software systems. However, many challenging conceptual and
technological issues remain in component-based software development
theory and practice. Furthermore, the advent of service-oriented and
cloud computing, cyber-physical systems, and the Internet of Things
has brought to the fore new dimensions, such as quality of service and
robustness to withstand faults, which require revisiting established
concepts and developing new ones.

FACS 2018 is concerned with how formal methods can be applied to
component-based software and system development. Formal methods have
provided foundations for component-based software through research on
mathematical models for components, composition and adaptation, and
rigorous approaches to verification, deployment, testing, and certification.

The conference seeks to address the application of
formal methods in all aspects of software components and
services. Specific topics include, but are not limited to:

* formal models for software components and their interaction;
* formal aspects of services, service-oriented architectures, business
processes, cloud computing, cyber-physical systems, Internet of
Things, and similar artifacts;
* design and verification methods for software components and services;
* composition and deployment: models, calculi, languages;
* formal methods and modeling languages for components and services;
* models for QoS and other extra-functional properties (e.g., trust,
compliance, security) of components and services;
* components for real-time, safety-critical, secure, and/or embedded
systems;
* components for the Internet of things and cyber-physical systems;
* probabilistic techniques for modeling and verification of
component-based systems;
* model-based testing of components and services;
* case studies and experience reports;
* tools supporting formal methods for components and services.

PAPER SUBMISSION

We solicit submissions, related to the topics mentioned
above, in the following categories:

A) original research contributions (18 pages max);
B) applications and experiences (18 pages max);
C) surveys, comparisons, and state-of-the-art reports (18 pages max);
D) tool papers (6 pages max).

All submissions must be original, unpublished, and not submitted
concurrently for publication elsewhere. Paper submission is done
via EasyChair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=facs2018.
Papers must be formatted according to the guidelines for Springer LNCS
papers (see http://www.springer.com/lncs).

In addition, we solicit submissions to the Doctoral Track of FACS
2018, in the form of abstracts (3 pages max) concisely capturing work
in progress, research questions, envisaged contributions, and/or
partial results.

Doctoral Track submission deadline: August 5, 2018 (AoE)
Doctoral Track notification: August 15, 2018


PUBLICATION

All accepted papers in the categories A-D above will appear in the
proceedings of the conference that will be published as a volume
in Springer’s LNCS series.

The authors of a selected subset of accepted papers will be invited to
submit extended versions of their papers to a special issue of the
Science of Computer Programming journal.
