We are glad to announce that TU Vienna will award an honorary doctorate to Ed Clarke. Edmund M. Clarke is among the leading computer scientists of our times. As a professor at Harvard, and, since 1982, at Carnegie Mellon University, he and his group have not only laid the theoretical and logical foundations of model [...]

The Vienna Center for Logic and Algorithms is an initiative of the Faculty of Informatics and funded by a three-year competitive grant of Vienna University of Technology. Embedded into the primary research area Computational Intelligence and the funding priority Computational Logic of the Faculty, the center is promoting international scientific collaboration in logic and algorithms.

The FORSYTE team is wishing our friends, colleagues and students a Happy New Year!

The Austrian Society for Rigorous Systems Engineering (ARiSE) and the Vienna Center for Logic and Algorithms (VCLA) are organizing a joint winter school on verification at Vienna University of Technology from 6-10 February 2012. Apart from ARiSE/VCLA students, the school will be open to outside students. Details are available from the VCLA website.

From October 3–7 2011 PUMA and ARiSE held a joint workshop in Traunkirchen. Further information is available from the workshop’s website. Photos by Damien Zufferey (full gallery):

The Austrian Society for Rigorous Systems Engineering (ARiSE) was founded in 2010 to further the research in formal methods for the design of correct computer systems. It brings together top researchers in formal methods in Austria in order to foster collaboration and a common research platform.

The annual Workshop on Exploiting Concurrency Efficiently and Correctly (EC2) is a forum that brings together researchers working on formal methods for concurrency, and those working on advanced parallel applications. Its goal is to stimulate incubation of ideas leading to future concurrent system design an verification tools that are essential in the multi-core era.
