****************************************************************

FMICS is the ERCIM Working Group conference on Formal Methods for Industrial Critical Systems, and it is the key conference in the intersection of industrial applications and Formal Methods. The aim of the FMICS conference series is to provide a forum for researchers who are interested in the development and application of formal methods in industry. FMICS brings together scientists and engineers who are active in the area of formal methods and interested in exchanging their experiences in the industrial usage of these methods. The FMICS conference series also strives to promote research and development for the improvement of formal methods and tools for industrial applications.

Keynote

-------------------------

- Speaker: Joe Kiniry (Galois Inc. and Free & Fair, US)

- Title: Haunting Tales of Applied Formal Methods from Academia and Industry.

- Abstract: You learn a lot after being a formal methods researcher and practitioner for 25 years. Half of that time was spent in academia, creating formal processes, methodologies, and tools that I hoped I could secretly impact engineers. Half of that time has been spent in industry, working at companies to transition concepts, tools, and technologies in rigorous digital engineering (RDE) with applied formal methods. These days I work at two companies, Galois and Free & Fair, leading R&D in RDE that focus on problems in national security and nationally critical infrastructure. I also work with many of our other Galois spin-outs, such as Muse (now Sonotype Lift) and Niobium Microsystems on these same topics. In this talk I’ll tell a small number of stories about these many years in the field, each of which has, I hope, an actionable nugget of wisdom for the audience at FMICS.
