#FMAS2026 will take place in Southampton, UK, on 17–18 November 2026, co-located with ICFEM 2026.
Join us for two days on formal methods for autonomous systems.
Autonomous systems create distinctive challenges for formal methods: dynamic environments, independent decision-making, safety evidence, certification, and real-world deployment.
#FMAS2026 invites work tackling these challenges.
Do you have colleagues working on formal methods, autonomous systems, robotics, cyber-physical systems, verification, safety assurance, or runtime verification?
Please let them know about #FMAS2026!
What can you submit to #FMAS2026?
Short papers: 6 pages, excluding references
• Vision papers
• Research previews
Long papers: 15 pages, excluding references
• Experience reports
• Regular papers
