Formal Methods Europe Symposium 1997

Formal Methods:
Their Industrial Application and
Strengthened Foundations

The FME'97 symposium will be held at the Technical University of Graz, Austria from 15-19 September, 1997. This will be the fourth international FME symposium (the eighth counting the preceding VDM symposia) in an increasingly valuable series. The event is organised by Formal Methods Europe, an advisory panel of the Commission of the European Communities. Local arrangements are made by the Institute of Software Technology of the Technical University Graz.

Previous VDM and FME symposia have been notably successful in bringing together users, researchers and developers of precise mathematical methods for software development. Symposium contributions will report advances in the field from developments in applicable theory to experiences in commercial application.


Dates and Venue

The tutorials will take place on Monday, 15 and Tuesday, 16 September, 1997. The symposium is held from Wednesday, 17 to Friday, 19 September 1997.

Tutorials and symposium will use the facilities of the Institute of Experimental Physics (For details of the locations, look at this map). The Technical University is situated in the very center of the economic region of Graz, thus making a focal point for the teaching of engineering and research in the south of Austria.


Social Events

On Wednesday, 17th September, there will be an official welcome at the Graz City Hall arranged by the mayor of Graz.

On Thursday, 18th September we are pleased to welcome all participants to a Symposium Banquet at the Grand Hotel "Erzherzog Johann".
