About this book

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Quantitative Evaluation Systems, QEST 2018, held in Beijing, China, in September 2018.

The 24 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 51 submissions. The papers cover topics in the field of quantitative evaluation and verification of computer systems and networks through stochastic models and measurements emphasizing two frontier topics in research: quantitative information flow for security and industrial formal methods.
