Aims & Scope
This journal aims to publish contributions at the junction of theory and practice. The objective is to disseminate applicable research. Thus new theoretical contributions are welcome where they are motivated by potential application; applications of existing formalisms are of interest if they show something novel about the approach or application. In particular, the scope of Formal Aspects of Computing includes: well-founded notations for the description of systems; verifiable design methods; elucidation of fundamental computational concepts; approaches to fault-tolerant design; theorem-proving support; state-exploration tools; formal underpinning of widely used notations and methods; formal approaches to requirements analysis.
