About this book

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 22nd International Symposium on Formal Methods, FM 2018, held in Oxford, UK, in July 2018.


The 44 full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 110 submissions. They present formal methods for developing and evaluating systems. Examples include autonomous systems, robots, and cyber-physical systems in general. The papers cover a broad range of topics in the following areas: interdisciplinary formal methods; formal methods in practice; tools for formal methods; role of formal methods in software systems engineering; and theoretical foundations.
