Preface
This volume contains the papers presentedat the 7th International Symposium
onAutomatedTechnologyforVerificationandAnalysisheldduringOctober13-
16 in Macao SAR, China. The primary objective of the ATVA conferences re-
mainsthesame:toexchangeandpromotethelatestadvancesofstate-of-the-art
researchontheoreticalandpracticalaspectsofautomatedanalysis,verification,
and synthesis.
Among 74 researchpapers and 10 tool papers submitted to ATVA 2009,the
ProgramCommittee accepted 23 as regular papers and 3 as tool papers. In all,
33 experts from 17 countries worked hard to make sure that every submission
received a rigorousand fair evaluation. In addition, the programincluded three
excellenttutorialsandkeynotetalksbyMarkGreenstreet(U.BritishColumbia),
Orna Grumberg (Technion), and Bill Roscoe (Oxford University). The confer-
ence organizers were truly grateful to have such distinguished researchers as
keynote speakers.
Many worked hard and offered their valuable time so generously to make
ATVA 2009 successful. First of all, the conference organizers thank all 229 re-
searchers who worked hard to complete and submit papers to the conference.
ThePCmembers,reviewers,andSteeringCommitteemembersalsodeservespe-
cial recognition. Without them, a competitive and peer-reviewed international
symposium simply cannot take place.
Many organizations sponsored the symposium. They include: The United
NationsUniversity,InternationalInstitute ofSoftwareTechnology(UNU-IIST);
MacaoPolytechnicInstitute(MPI);MacaoPOST;andFormalMethodsEurope
(FME). The conference organizers thank them for their generous support and
assistance.
Many individuals offered their enthusiastic help to the conference. We are
grateful to Lei Heong Iok, President of MPI, Cheang Mio Han, Head of the
Academic Affairs Department of MPI, and Hau Veng San, Head of the Division
for PedagogicalAffairs of MPI, for their support. We would like to thank Chris
George, the Conference Chair, Antonio Cerone, the Local Organization Chair,
and Jun Pang, the Publicity Chair, for their hard work; Wang Zhen for writing
the online registration program; Charles Morisset for his help in managing the
proceedings and the program;and last, but not least, the generalstaff of UNU-
IIST, Wendy Hoi, Kitty Chan, Michelle Ho, Sandy Lee, and Kyle Au, for their
help with the local organization.
We sincerelyhope that the readersfind the proceedingsofATVA2009infor-
mative and rewarding.
