In the context of hardware and software systems, formal verification is the act of proving or disproving the correctness of intended algorithms underlying a system with respect to a certain formal specification or property, using formal methods of mathematics. [Wikipedia]

We particularily consider the verification of software systems including their modelling on different levels of abstraction and the specification of properties that are to be verified. Typical approaches are, for example theorem proving, testing, model checking, runtime verification, static analysis, type checking. They rely on formal concepts such as (temporal) logic, automata- and game theory or process algebras. The major goal is an automatic comparisson of the (possibly abstract) modell and a property specification.
