Preface
Thisvolumecontainsthetechnicalpaperspresentedinthefivehigh-qualityworkshops
associatedtoSEFM2014(12thInternationalConferenceonSoftwareEngineeringand
FormalMethods,heldinGrenoble,September1–5,2014).SEFM2014wasorganized
by Inria and supported by Grenoble INP, Joseph Fourier University, LIG, and CNRS.
SEFM2014broughttogetherpractitionersandresearchersfromacademia,industry,
and government to advance the state of the art in formal methods, to facilitate their
uptake in the software industry, and to encourage their integration with practical
engineering methods. Satellite workshops provided further opportunities for collabo-
rating and exchanging ideas about specific topics of Formal Methods and Software
Engineering, from conceptual to practical aspects.
The workshops focused on specific topics in the Software Engineering and Formal
Methods related domains: the First Workshop on Human-Oriented Formal Methods –
FromReadabilitytoAutomation(HOFM2014),theThirdInternationalSymposiumon
Modeling and Knowledge Management Applications – Systems and Domains
(MoKMaSD 2014), the Eighth International Workshop on Foundations and Tech-
niquesforOpenSourceSoftwareCertification(OpenCert2014),theFirstWorkshopon
Safety and Formal Methods (SaFoMe 2014), and the Fourth Workshop on Formal
Methods in the Development of Software (WS-FMDS 2014). The review and the
selectionprocesswasperformedrigorously,witheachpaperbeingreviewedbyatleast
three Program Committee (PC) members. A brief description of each workshop
follows, written by their organizers.
For each of the workshops at SEFM 2014, we thank the organizers for these
interesting topics and resulting talks. We also thank the paper contributors to
these workshops and those who attended them. We would like to extend our thanks
toallkeynotespeakersfortheirsupportandexcellentpresentations,andalso,members
of each workshop’s Program Committee.

HOFM Organizers’ Message
While designing and applying formal methods, computer scientists have dominantly
focusedontwofactorsonly:first,amethodmustbepreciseandsound,andsecondly,
itmustbemathematically concise and aesthetic.Other importantcharacteristicssuch
as simplicity, learnability, readability, memorability, ease of use and communication
or, even support for integrating tools into larger development tool chains are ignored
toooften.Thesenonfunctionalproperties,however,arekeyattributesofusabilityand
user satisfaction. If usability is compromised, methods are not fit for the purpose of
documenting, reproducing, and communicating key design and realization decisions,
or analysis results, especially when these need to communicate or mediate between
expertise in different disciplines, different tool chains, or across technological or
organizationalboundaries.Forthesereasons,manyengineersandpractitionerslargely
reject formal methods and formal specification languages as “too hard to understand
and use in practice” while admitting that they are powerful and precise.
With increasing computing power and its consequent automation capabilities, the
research and development community, however, is slowly but definitely focusing on
usability in combination with automation. Moreover, practitioners across numerous
domains are increasingly interested in formal domain-specific modeling, simulation,
and validation, whether in application areas of energy, robotics, health, biology,
climate,andsustainabledevelopment,or,forspecifictechnologiesofimportancesuch
asdataanalyticsanduserinterfacespecificationforanexponentiallygrowingnumber
of handheld or wearable devices. While there are many applications of formal
methods to analyze human-machine interaction and to construct user interfaces, the
fieldofapplicationofhumanfactorstotheanalysisandtotheoptimizationofformal
methods area is almost unexplored.
The HOFM workshop was held on September 1, 2014 in Grenoble, France. This
internationalworkshopwasaffiliatedtothe12thInternationalConferenceonSoftware
Engineering and Formal Methods (SEFM). The goal of the HOFM (Human-Oriented
Formal Methods) workshop was to bring together researchers, engineers, and
practitioners from academia and industry to baseline the state of the art in this
increasinglyimportantdomain.Everysubmittedpaperwasreviewedbyatleastthree
Program Committee members, four regular papers were accepted for presentation at
HOFM 2014. An introduction to the first HOFM workshop was given by Maria
Spichkova on “Human-Oriented Formal Methods: Human Factors + Formal
Methods.” The program of the workshop was enriched by two keynote talks:
– Arkady Zaslavsky, CSIRO, Australia, “Internet of Things: New Dimensions of
Modelling, Usability and Human-Computer Interaction”
– MartinGlinz,UniversityofZurich,Switzerland,“AdvantagesandPitfallsofFormal
or Formalizable Graphic Requirements Models”
The HOFM 2014 pre-proceedings, which include all papers presented at the
workshop, are available online at the workshop site http://hofm2014.wordpress.com.

We would like to thank all authors who contributed to HOFM 2014 as well as all
attendeesto the workshop. We hope that the attendeesfound the program relevantto
theirinterestsandinspiring.WealsothanktheProgramCommitteemembersfortheir
supportand considered reviews,and the SEFM workshop chairs and local organizers
for their help.

SaFoMe Organizers’ Message
Theenhancementofqualityofservice(QoS)andthereductionoftheriskoffatalities
andinjuriesofstrategicindustrialproductsisarealneedinmanydomains,including
for instance automotive, avionics, and rail. To achieve this, there is a need for cost-
efficient processes and methods supporting the development and operation of safety
enabling embedded systems.
Among several approaches, Component-Based Development (CBD) has emerged
as suitable to improve both the reuse and maintainability of systems. Many CBD
techniquesusetheconceptofacontract,whichdescribeswhatacomponentinterface
provides and what it expects from other components. During system composition
contracts are compared to determine system compatibility. The majority of these
works has concentrated on the functional properties of systems. Much less work has
been devoted to apply CBD while dealing with nonfunctional properties, including
dependability properties such as safety, reliability, performance, and availability.
Formal methods have traditionally been advocated for improving the reliability of
safety-relevant systems. The First International Workshop on Safety and Formal
Methods, SaFoMe2014,whichwasheldinGrenoble,France,onSeptember1,2014,
aimed at providing a forum for people from academia and industry to communicate
theirlatestresultsontheoreticaladvances,industrialcasestudies,andlessonslearned
in the application of formal methods to safety certification, verification, and/or
validation in (but not limited to) component-based systems.
Papers submitted to SaFoMe 2014 were carefully reviewed by at least three
membersoftheProgramCommittee.Fromninesubmissions,fivepaperswerefinally
selectedtodiscussthefollowingtopics:survivability,diagnosis,verificationofsafety
contracts,andformalizationofbehavioralpatternsandsharedresources.Prof.Dr.Jan
Jürgens from TU Dortmund and Fraunhofer ISST gave an invited talk on Security
CertificationinthePresenceofEvolution:Modelsvs.Code.ARoundTablewasheld
at the end of the workshop where current challenges in industrial application of
FormalMethodsinthesafetycontextwereactivelydiscussedbytheattendees,which
consistedofpeoplebothfromacademiaandindustry.Theconclusionwasthatweare
still far from applying formal methods to deal with safety concerns in industrial
contexts,sincetherearetoomanymodelinglanguagesandtoolsthatpartiallyanalyze
safety concerns while considering the evolving requirements.
Several people contributed to the success of SaFoMe 2014. We would like to
express our gratitude to all members of the Program Committee for their efforts and
commitment. The SEFM workshop’s organizers deserve special thanks for their
dedicationandgoodwork,whichclearlymadeourorganizationtaskseasier.Wealso
thank the nSafeCer project (EU ARTEMIS Joint Undertaking under grant agreement
no. 295373) for their support. Finally, thanks to the authors and attendees for their
passion and interest.
