This volume contains the proceedings of FMOODS2005, the 7th IFIPWG6. 1 International Conference on Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems. The conference was held in Athens, Greece on June 15-17, 2005. The eventwasthe seventhmeeting ofthis conferenceseries,whichis held roughly- eryyearandahalf,withtheearliereventsheldrespectivelyinParis,Canterbury, Florence, Stanford, Twente, and Paris. ThegoaloftheFMOODSseriesofconferencesistobringtogetherresearchers whose work encompasses three important and related ?elds: - formal methods; - distributed systems; - object-based technology. Sucha convergenceis representativeofrecentadvancesin the?eld ofdistributed systems, and provides links between several scienti?c and technological com- nities, as represented by the conferences FORTE, CONCUR, and ECOOP. The objective of FMOODS is to provide an integrated forum for the pres- tation of research in the above-mentioned ?elds, and the exchange of ideas and experiences in the topics concerned with the formal methods support for open object-based distributed systems.For the call for papers, aspects of interest - cluded, but were not limited to: formal models; formal techniques for speci?- tion, design, or analysis; veri?cation, testing, and validation; component-based design; formal aspects of service-oriented computing; semantics and type s- tems for programming, coordination, or modelling languages; behavioraltyping; multiple viewpoint modelling and consistency between di?erent models; tra- formations of models; integration of quality-of-service requirements into formal models; formal models for security; formal approachesto distributed component frameworks;andapplications andexperience,carefullydescribed. Work onthese aspects of (o?cial and de facto) standardnotation and languagesfor serviceo- ented design, e. g. web services orchestration languages, was explicitly welcome.

This volume contains the proceedings of two international workshops EPEW and WS-FM held atthe Universit' ede VersaillesSaint-Quentin-en-Yvelines,V- sailles, France, 1-3 September 2005. EPEW (European Performance Engineering Workshop) and WS-FM (Int- national Workshop on Web Services and Formal Methods) were colocated to gather the researchers working across the spectrum of techniques for modelling, speci?cation, analysis and veri?cation of the behavior of computer systems and business processes. This proceedings contains a selection of 20 research contributions, out of 59 submissions, which went through a rigorous review process by international reviewers. We therefore owe special thanks to all members of both program committees of EPEW and WS-FM and their sub-referees for the excellent work they did in the short time they had. Additionally, this proceedings includes four invited papers, by Gianfranco Ciardo (University of California at Riverside), Peter G. Harrison (Imperial C- lege London), Cosimo Laneve (University of Bologna) and Wil van der Aalst (Eindhoven University of Technology). These contributions brought an ad- tional dimension to the technical and the scienti?c merit of these workshops.Finally,ourthanksgototheUniversityofVersaillesSaint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, its Laboratoire PRiSM and the CNRS for hosting the workshops and providing technicaland?nancialsupport.

Here are the refereed proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Web Services and Formal Methods, WS-FM 2006, held in conjunction with the Fourth International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2006. The book presents 15 revised full papers and 3 invited lectures covering such topics as protocols and standards for WS; languages and description methodologies for Coreography/Orchestration/Workflow; coordination techniques for WS; security, performance evaluation and quality of service, and more.

Modern information systems rely increasingly on combining concurrent, d- tributed, real-time, recon?gurable and heterogeneous components. New models, architectures, languages, and veri?cation techniques are necessary to cope with thecomplexityinducedbythedemandsoftoday’ssoftwaredevelopment. COOR- DINATIONaimstoexplorethespectrumoflanguages,middleware,services,and algorithms that separate behavior from interaction, therefore increasing mo- larity, simplifying reasoning, and ultimately enhancing software development. This volume contains the proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Coordination Models and Languages, COORDINATION 2008, held in Oslo, Norway in June 2008, as part of the federated DisCoTec conference.

From the 61 submissions received from around the world, the Program Committee selected 21 papers for presentation and publication in this volume on the basis of or- inality, quality, and relevance to the topics of the conference. Each submission received at least three reviews. As with previous editions, the paper submission and selection processes were managed entirely electronically. This was acc- plished using EasyChair, a free Web-based conference management system. In addition to the technical paper presentations, COORDINATION 2008 hosted an invited presentation by Matt Welsh from Harvard University. We are grateful to all the Program Committee members who devoted much e?ort and time to read and discuss the papers. Moreover, we acknowledge the help of additional external reviewers who evaluated submissions in their area of expertise. Finally,wewouldliketothanktheauthorsofallthesubmittedpapersandtheconferenceattendees, for keeping this researchcommunity lively and interactive, and ultimately ensuring the success of this conference series.

This volume presents the set of papers accompanying the lectures of the eighth International School on Formal Methods for the Design of Computer, Com- nication, and Software Systems (SFM). Thisseriesofschoolsaddressestheuseofformalmethodsincomputerscience asaprominentapproachtotherigorousdesignofcomputer,communication,and software systems. The main aim of the SFM series is to o?er a good spectrum of current research in foundations as well as applications of formal methods, which can be of help for graduate students and young researchers who intend to approach the ?eld. SFM 2008 was devoted to formal techniques for computational systems - ology and covered several aspects of the ?eld, including computational models, calculi and logics for biological systems, and veri?cation and simulation me- ods. Theschoolfeatured not onlyregularlectures, but also talksgivenby people involvedinthe ItalianresearchprojectonBio-InspiredSystems andCalculiwith Applications (BISCA). The ?rst partof this volume comprises nine papers basedon regularlectures. The paper by Degasperi and Gilmore describes the application of sensitivity analysistechniques to stochastic simulation algorithms.Talcott's paper presents pathway logic, an approach to modeling and analysis of biological processes based on rewriting logic. Fages and Soliman study reaction graphs and acti- tion/inhibition graphs used by biologists through formal methods originating from programming theory. The paper by Maus, John, R.. ohl, and Uhrmacher d- cusses categories, abstraction hierarchies, and composition hierarchies playing a role in modeling and simulation for computational biology. Gillespie's paper - views the theory of stochastic chemical kinetics and several simulation methods that are based on that theory.

The main aim of the SFM series is to o?er a good spectrum of current research in foundations as well as applications of formal methods, which can be of help for graduate students and young researchers who intend to approach the ?eld. SFM 2009 was devoted to formal methods for Web services and covered s- eral aspects including choreography, orchestration, description techniques, - teraction, synthesis, composition, session types, contracts, veri?cation, security, and performance. This volume comprises eight articles. Bruni's paper overviews some of the most recently proposed abstractions in the setting of process calculi tailored to the well-disciplined handling of issues such as long-running interactions, orch- tration, and unexpected events.Van der Aalst, Mooij, Stahl, and Wolf provide some foundational notions related to service interaction and address in a Petri net setting challenges like how to expose a service, how to replace and re?ne services, and how to generate service adapters. The paper by Marconi and - store presents a survey of existing approaches to the synthesis of Web service compositions, a di?cult and error-pronetask that requires automated solutions.
