Programming and Software Engineering Series

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Haifa Verification Conference, HVC 2014, held in Haifa, Israel, in November 2014. The 17 revised full papers and 4 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics in the sub-fields of testing and verification applicable to software, hardware, and complex hybrid systems.
