Abstract

The grand challenge that is the focus of this conference targets the development of a practical methodology for software verification: a methodology that can help us to reduce the number of residual defects in software products. Reducing residual defects is of course not in itself the objective of this exercise; the true objective is to reduce the number of failuresin the use of software products. Or in other words: the objective is the development of a methodology for "reliable software systems design."
