Formal methods have been applied successfully to the verification of medium-sized programs in protocol and hardware design. However, their application to the development of large systems requires more emphasis on specification, modelling and validation techniques supporting the concepts of reusability and modifiability, and their implementation in new extensions of existing programming languages.

This book presents 12 revised lectures given by top-researchers at the 5th International Symposium on Formal Methods for Components and Objects, FMCO 2006, held in Amsterdam, Netherlands,...

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 12th International Workshop on Coalgebraic Methods in Computer Science, CMCS 2014, colocated with ETAPS 2014, held in Grenoble, France, in April 2014. The 10 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 20 submissions. Also included are three invited talks. The papers cover a wide range of topics in the theory, logics and applications of coalgebras.
