Summary
The courses of SETSS 2014 aim to improve the understanding of the relation between theory and practice in software engineering, to contribute to narrowing the gap between them. This volume contains the lecture notes of the five courses and materials of one seminar. The common themes of the courses include the design and use of theories, techniques and tools for software specification and modeling, analysis and verification. The courses cover sequential programming, component- and object software, hybrid systems and cyber-physical systems with challenges of termination, security, safety, security, fault-tolerance and real-time requirements. The techniques include model checking, correctness by construction through refinement and model transformations, synthesis and computer algebra
