OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE:

Established in 1996, the FMOODS series of conferences aims to provide 
an integrated forum for research on formal aspects of Open Object-based
Distributed Systems. The conference will especially welcome novel
contributions reflecting recent developments in the area, in particular
component- and model-based design, service-oriented computing and 
software quality. Areas of interest include but are not limited to:
  
  - Semantics and implementation of object-oriented programming and
    (visual) modelling languages
  - Formal techniques for specification, design, analysis, verification,
    validation and testing
  - Model checking, theorem proving and deductive verification
  - Type systems and behavioural typing
  - Formal methods for service-oriented computing
  - Formal techniques for security and trust in global computing
  - Formalization of runtime system evolution (e.g. dynamic updates, 
    reconfiguration)
  - Multiple viewpoint modelling and consistency between different views
  - Model transformations and refactorings
  - Integration of quality of service requirements into formal models
  - Formal approaches to component-based design
  - Applications of formal methods (e.g. web services, multimedia, 
    telecommunications)
  - Experience reports on best practices and tools
