Hardware and Software: Verification and Testing -

. .

Résumé :
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 7th International Haifa Verification Conference, HVC 2011, held in Haifa, Israel in December 2011. The 15 revised full papers presented together with 3 tool papers and 4 posters were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on synthesis, formal verification, software quality, testing and coverage, experience and tools, and posters- student event.
