Vision for the Event

Covid-19 forced the world to go digital, including conferences. But, restating the guiding theme of FM in 2015, a conference is a social event at which participants should have the opportunity to interact, get updated on recent and on-going research, and foster interesting new ideas and collaborations. We have learned that such an interaction can hardly be realized in digital meetings. However, we are fairly confident that in spring 2023, the Covid-19 situation will be under control and will allow for physical scientific meetings again. So our guiding thesis for FM’23 is

Let’s have real conferences again!

Topic-wise, we are well aware of the huge interest in AI and machine learning-based software development.
For safety critical systems, such systems have to be formally analyzed and verified. In other words,

Solid AI-based systems need Formal Methods!

While traditional formal methods will be the main topic of FM’23, we will add Formal Methods for AI as a major
theme for the next edition of FM.
