    The Conference on Formal Methods in Computer-Aided Design (FMCAD) is an annual conference on the theory and applications of formal methods in hardware and system verification. FMCAD provides a leading forum to researchers in academia and industry for presenting and discussing groundbreaking methods, technologies, theoretical results, and tools for reasoning formally about computing systems. FMCAD covers formal aspects of computer-aided system design including verification, specification, synthesis, and testing

    This open access two-volume set LNCS 13371 and 13372 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 34rd International Conference on Computer Aided Verification, CAV 2022, which was held in Haifa, Israel, in August 2022. The 40 full papers presented together with 9 tool papers and 2 case studies were carefully reviewed and selected from 209 submissions. The papers were organized in the following topical sections: Part I: Invited papers; formal methods for probabilistic programs; formal methods for neural networks; software Verification and model checking; hyperproperties and security; formal methods for hardware, cyber-physical, and hybrid systems. Part II: Probabilistic techniques; automata and logic; deductive verification and decision procedures; machine learning; synthesis and concurrency. This is an open access book

    Causality Analysis and Fault Ascription in Component-Based Systems

    This article introduces a general framework for fault ascription, which consists in identifying, within a multi-component system, the components whose faulty behavior has caused the failure of said system. Our framework uses configuration structures as a general semantical model to handle truly concurrent executions, partial and distributed observations in a uniform way. We define a set of expected properties for counterfactual analysis, and present a refined analysis that conforms to our requirements. This contrasts with current practice of evaluating definitions of counterfactual causality a posteriori on a set of toy examples. As an early study of the behavior of our analysis under abstraction we establish its monotony under refinement.Cet article introduit un cadre général pour l’attribution de fautes qui consiste à identifier, dans un système à composants, les composants dont le comportement incorrect a causé le dysfonctionnement du système. Nous définissons un ensemble de propriétés attendues de l’analyse contrefactuelle, et nous présentons une analyse raffinée qui satisfait ces besoins. Ceci contraste avec la pratique courante d’évaluer les définitions de causalité contrefactuelle a posteriori sur un ensemble d’exemples jouets. Nous établissons la monotonie de notre analyse sous différentes notions de raffinement
