This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on System Analysis and Modeling, SAM 2019, held in Munich, Germany, in September 2019. The 12 full papers and 2 work in progress papers presented together with one keynote talk were carefully reviewed and selected from 28 submissions. The papers discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and experiences in modeling and analysis of complex systems using ITU-T's Specification and Description Language (SDL-2010) and Message Sequence Chart (MSC) notations, as well as related system design languages — including UML, ASN.1, TTCN, SysML, and the User Requirements Notation (URN). SAM 2019’s theme was “Languages, Methods, and Tools for Industry 4.0.”

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on System Analysis and Modeling, SAM 2018, held in Copenhagen Denmark, in October 2018. The 12 full papers and 2 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. The papers describe innovations, trends, and experiences in modeling and analysis of complex systems using ITU-T's Specification and Description Language (SDL-2010) and Message Sequence Chart (MSC) notations, as well as related system design languages — including UML, ASN.1, TTCN, SysML and the User Requirements Notation (URN). This year’s edition of SAM will be under the theme “Languages, Methods, and Tools for Systems Engineering”, including languages and methods standardized by the ITU-T, and domain-specific languages. Also included are software engineering technologies, such as for requirements engineering, software verification and validation, and automated code generation.

This book constitutes revised papers of the proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on System Analysis and Modeling, SAM 2016, held in Saint-Melo, France, in October 2016. The 15 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 31 submissions. The contributions are organized in topical theme named: Technology-Specific Aspects of Models. The volume reflects the five sessions of the conference. The first two sessions are closely aligned with the conference theme with a session on the Internet of Things and a session on Technology-specific Aspects. The other three sessions cover aspects regarding modeling languages and model-driven development in general and were organized in the sessions Languages, Configurations and Features, and Patterns and Compilation.

Evolutionary scheduling is a vital research domain at the interface of artificial intelligence and operational research. This edited book gives an overview of many of the current developments in the large and growing field of evolutionary scheduling. It demonstrates the applicability of evolutionary computational techniques to solve scheduling problems, not only to small-scale test problems, but also fully-fledged real-world problems.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Formal Techniques for Safety-Critical Systems, FTSCS 2014, held in Luxembourg, in November 2014. The 14 revised full papers presented together with two invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. The papers address various topics related to the application of formal and semi-formal methods to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems.
