INTRODUCTION

============

ATVA 2008 is the sixth in the series of symposia on Automated Technology for

Verification and Analysis. The purpose of ATVA is to promote research on

theoretical and practical aspects of automated analysis, verification and

synthesis in East Asia by providing a forum for interaction between the

regional and the international research communities and industry in the
field.

 

ATVA 2008 offers a good opportunity to stay current on the state-of-the-art

research results on the automated technologies for verification and
analysis,

and enjoy unique cultural experience in Korea.
