The High Integrity Language Technology (HILT) 2016 Workshop is focused on the synergy between Model-Based Development and Contract-Based Programming, producing a formal model-driven approach to the development of high-assurance software-intensive systems.

Important Dates:

June 30: Papers or Extended abstracts due
July 31: Notification of submissions accepted for presentation
Sep 15: Final submissions due
Oct 6&7: Workshop as part of ESWEEK

Keynote:
* Phil Koopman, CMU

We encourage papers and extended abstracts relating to:
* Architecture-level and requirements-oriented modeling with systems such as AADL, SysML, and ArgoSim
* Component-level modeling with systems such as UML/OCL, Simulink, and SCADE
* Automated analysis and code generation targeting verification-oriented tools and/or programming language subsets such as Coq, PVS, ACL2, Why, SPARK/Ada, Frama C/ACSL, MISRA C, JML, and CompCert C.
* Other contributions linking modeling and contracts to the topics associated with the co-located EMSOFT conference:
o Formal modeling and verification
o Testing, validation, and certification
o Model- and component-based software design and analysis
o Software technologies for safety-critical and mixed-critical systems
o Robust implementation of control systems
o Embedded software security

Workshop Co-Chairs
* Julien Delange, Software Engineering Institute
