This book constitutes the proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Theoretical Aspects of Software Engineering, TASE 2022, held in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, July 2022. The 21 full regular papers presented together with 5 short papers in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 71 submissions. The topics of the papers covering various fields in software engineering and the latest developments in in formal and theoretical software engineering methods and techniques.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Theoretical Aspects of Software Engineering, TASE 2023, held in Bristol, UK, July 4–6, 2023. The 19 full papers and 2 short papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. They cover the following areas: distributed and concurrent systems; cyber-physical systems; embedded and real-time systems; object-oriented systems; quantum computing; formal verification and program semantics; static analysis; formal methods; verification and testing for AI systems; and AI for formal methods.

The 39 papers selected for the June 2008 symposium present new approaches to model checking, program analysis, service-oriented computing, verification and validation, software testing, logic systems, and specifications. The contributors propose a bigraphical model of WSBPEL, workflow semantics of peer and service behavior, automatic verification of self-stabilizing population protocols, and a multidimensional model for mum effect in offshore outsourcing. Other topics include test data generation for C programs, transformation of BPEL processes to Petri nets, symmetry reduction for B and Z models, and permission interpretation for ownership types. No subject index is provided.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Software Engineering, TASE 2024, held in Guiyang, China, during July 29–August 1, 2024. The 24 full papers, 2 short papers, 1 invited abstract and 1 invited papers were carefully selected from 76 submissions. The papers presented new results on innovative advances in software engineering, as well as the latest developments in formal and theoretical software engineering methods and techniques.

The volume includes a set of selected papers extended and revised from the I2009 Pacific-Asia Conference on Knowledge Engineering and Software Engineering (KESE 2009) was held on December 19~ 20, 2009, Shenzhen, China. Volume 1 is to provide a forum for researchers, educators, engineers, and government officials involved in the general areas of Computer and Software Engineering to disseminate their latest research results and exchange views on the future research directions of these fields. 140 high-quality papers are included in the volume. Each paper has been peer-reviewed by at least 2 program committee members and selected by the volume editor Prof. Yanwen Wu. On behalf of this volume, we would like to express our sincere appreciation to all of authors and referees for their efforts reviewing the papers. Hoping you can find lots of profound research ideas and results on the related fields of Computer and Software Engineering.
