 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

 The aim of the symposium is to bring together international researchers and
 practitioners in the field of software technology. Its focus is on formal
 methods and advanced software technologies, especially for engineering complex,
 large-scale artefacts like
 cyber-physical systems, networks of things, enterprise systems, or cloud-based
 services. Contributions relating to formal methods or
 integrating them with software engineering, as well as papers advancing
 scalability or widening the scope of rigorous methods to new design goals are
 especially welcome.

 Being hosted in China, the symposium will also provide a platform for building
 up research collaborations between the rapidly growing
 Chinese computer science community and its international counterpart. The
 symposium will support this process through dedicated events and therefore
 welcomes both young researchers considering
 international collaboration in formal methods and established researchers
 looking for international cooperation and willing to
 attract new colleagues to the domain.

 Authors are invited to submit papers on original research, industrial
 applications, or position papers proposing challenges in fundamental research
 and technology. The latter two types of submissions are
 expected to contribute to the development of formal methods either by
 substantiating the advantages of integrating formal methods into the
 development cycle or through delineating need for research by
 demonstrating weaknesses of existing technologies, especially when addressing
 new application domains.

 Submissions can take the form of either normal or short papers. Short papers
 can discuss ongoing research at an early stage, including PhD projects. Papers
 should be written in English. Regular Papers should not exceed 15 pages and
 Short Papers should not exceed 6 pages in LNCS format (see http://
 www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for
 details). The proceedings will be published as a volume in Springer's LNCS
 series. The authors of a selected subset of accepted papers will be invited to
 submit extended versions of their papers to appear in a special issue of the
 Formal Aspect Computing journal.
