This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the First International Symposium on Leveraging Applications of Formal Methods, ISoLA 2004, held in Paphos, Cyprus in October/November 2004.
The 12 revised full papers discuss issues related to the adoption and use of rigorous tools and methods for the specification, analysis, verification, certification, construction, test, and maintenance of systems.
Interaction and Coordination of Tools for Structured Data.- Modelling Coordination in Biological Systems.- A Rule Markup Language and Its Application to UML.- Using XML Transformations for Enterprise Architectures.- Classification and Utilization of Abstractions for Optimization.- On the Correctness of Transformations in Compiler Back-Ends.- Accurate Theorem Proving for Program Verification.- Designing Safe, Reliable Systems Using Scade.- Decreasing Maintenance Costs by Introducing Formal Analysis of Real-Time Behavior in Industrial Settings.- Static Timing Analysis of Real-Time Operating System Code.- A Case Study in Domain-Customized Model Checking for Real-Time Component Software.- Models for Contract Conformance.
From the reviews:
"The practical applications of formal methods are increasing. This book contains the main proceedings of an international symposium on leveraging applications of formal methods (IsoLA). It consists of 12 papers. ... I find the papers highly informative; they exemplify ways to leverage applications of formal methods. I recommend that practitioners explore such applications." (S. V. Nagaraj, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (8), August, 2008)

Bernhard Steffen studierte Mathematik an der Christian-Albrechts Universität zu Kiel, wo er anschließend auch in der Informatik promovierte. Nach Forschungsaufenthalten am Laboratory for Foundations in Computer Science in Edinburgh und an der Universität Aarhus, wurde er 1990 an die RWTH Aachen berufen, von wo er 1993 an die Universität Passau auf den Lehrstuhl für Programmiersysteme wechselte. Seit 1997 leitet er den Lehrstuhl für Programmiersysteme und Compilerbau an der TU-Dortmund. Bernhard Steffen ist Gründer der internationalen Konferenz über Tools and Algorithm for the Conbstruction and Analysis of Systems (TACAS) und des internationalen Journals über Software Tools for Technology Transfer (STTT).
