The 20th Overture Workshop is the latest in a series of workshops around theVienna Development Method (VDM), the open-source project Overture, andrelated tools and formalisms. VDM is one of the best established formalmethods for systems development. A lively community of researchers andpractitioners in academia and industry has grown around the modellinglanguages (VDM-SL, VDM++, VDM-RT) and tools (including VDMTools, Overture,INTO-CPS, ViennaTalk, VDMJ and VDM VSCode). Together, these provide aplatform for work on modelling and analysis technology that includes IDEs, staticand dynamic analysis, test generation, execution support, and model checking.
Previous workshops have been invaluable in encouraging both new andestablished members of the community in their work, and helping to determinepriorities and future directions. Proceedings of former workshops areavailable at https://www.overturetool.org/.
Submission Guidelines
Our workshop provides a forum for discussing and advancing the state of the art in formal modelling and analysis using VDM and its family of associated formalisms including extensions for distributed VDM and real-time systems. We strongly welcome contributions on the development of tools for, as well as developments in, foundations and reports of practical experience. Each paper will be peer-reviewed by at least three members of the PC, must use the Springer LNCS format, and should not exceed 15 pages in length.
The scope of the workshop includes, but is not restricted to:
- Reports of applications of VDM technology, especially reports of industrial use.
- Papers describing requirements, designs, implementations and case studies of support tools for VDM, whether or not implemented in the VDM-related tools.
- Papers on the foundations and methodology associated with VDM and its extensions, including the description of real-time, cyber-physical systems, digital twins and systems-of-systems.
- Papers combining VDM with other notations and tools.
- Position papers on VDM and its promotion in industry practice.
- Papers on extensions of VDM-related tools including Overture, INTO-CPS and ViennaTalk.
