Formal Methods and Tools (FMT)
Head: Maurice Henri ter Beek

Web Site: http://fmt.isti.cnr.it/
The Formal Methods and Tools (FMT) lab has longstanding experience in the development and application of formal notations, methods and software support tools for the specification, design and verification of complex systems. These efforts are typically based on foundational concepts and techniques such as process algebras, temporal, probabilistic, stochastic, and spatial logics, and model checking. The FMT lab is also active in requirements engineering and various branches of software engineering, and in the areas of computer ethics and information technology and society. Important application fields concern the railway domain and, recently, medical image analysis.
The FMT lab has a main role in the association FME (Formal Methods Europe), ERCIM (European Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics), the ERCIM Working Group FMICS (Formal Methods in Industrial Critical Systems), and DITECFER (Distretto Tecnologico Ferroviario della Regione Toscana).
Over the years, the FMT lab has organised numerous conferences on formal methods, requirements engineering and software (product line) engineering, among which FM, FMICS, FORTE, iFM, SEFM, ABZ, AVoCS, REFSQ, VaMoS and SPLC.
