Laura Nenzi – författare

Laura Nenzi draws readers into a fascinating world of samurai, shipwrecks, nocturnal monsters and partying crowds, in this richly detailed, illustrated and evocative history of the night. The world over, the installation of public lights transformed the night, reshaping expressions of authority; altering centuries-old forms of production and consumption; and enabling the expansion of legitimate daytime activities into the night hours. The cities of Tokugawa Japan, however, lacked any kind of public illumination until the late nineteenth century. Nonetheless, Nenzi shows, many of the attributes associated with the modern night were firmly in place in cities and villages well before the age of streetlights. This exploration of the transformation of early modern Japan after dark challenges accepted definitions of modernity, encouraging readers to rethink the way we write history.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Software Verification and Formal Methods for ML-Enables Autonomous Systems, FoMLAS 2022, and the 15th International Workshop on Numerical Software Verification, NSV 2022, which took place in Haifa, Israel, in July/August 2022. The volume contains 8 full papers from the FoMLAS 2022 workshop and 3 full papers from the NSV 2022 workshop. The FoMLAS workshop is dedicated to the development of novel formal methods techniques to discussing on how formal methods can be used to increase predictability, explainability, and accountability of ML-enabled autonomous systems. NSV 2022 is focusing on the challenges of the verification of cyber-physical systems with machine learning components.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Runtime Verification, RV 2023, held in Thessaloniki, Greece, during October 3–6, 2023.The 13 full papers and 7 short papers presented in this book together with 4 tutorial papers and 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. The RV conference is concerned with all aspects of novel lightweight formal methods to monitor, analyze, and guide the runtime behavior of software and hardware systems.Runtime verification techniques are crucial for system correctness, reliability, and robustness; they provide an additional level of rigor and effectiveness compared to conventional testing and are generally more practical than exhaustive formal verification.
