The School on Specification, Refinement, and Verification is the
second event in a series of four "Summer Schools on Foundations of
Computing Science" organised by the European Educational Forum
(EEF). The EEF is a joint initiative of the three interuniversitary
research schools BRICS (Basic
Research in Computer Science) from Denmark, IPA (Institute for
Programming Research and Algorithmics) from the Netherlands, TUCS (Turku Centre for Computer
Science) from Finland.
The goal of EEF is to organize various forms of
activities aimed at the education of Ph.D.'s and young researchers in
current research trends in computer science.
This school is sponsored by the EU via the TMR network
"Synergos", so young researchers (up to 35 years of age)
from the EU can apply for a grant, covering for part of
the costs for travel and subsistence.
Lecturers
- Programming logics
- Mechanical support (for specification, refinement and
verification)
- Formal methods in system design
Program committee
The PC consists of Ralph-Johan
Back, Johan Lilius,
Kaisa Sere, Magnus
Steinby, Joakim von Wright; R. Back

Location and Accommodation
The summer school takes place in the Mauno Koivisto Centre
building of the Turku
Technology Center in the city of Turku. Turku is situated in the
southwest corner of Finland. There are good flight connections to
Turku both from Helsinki and Stockholm. You can also come to Turku
either by bus or by train from Helsinki, or by boat from Stockholm.
Accommodation will be organized in the center of Turku.

journey takes some 2 hours. From Stockholm there are two boat lines
to Turku through a beautiful archipelago. The boat trip takes 8-10
hours.
Here you can find more information about Turku and
how to get there.
