Runtime Verification, 2014 5th International Conference, RV 2014, Toronto, ON, Canada, September 22-25, 2014. Proceedings Programming and Software Engineering Series

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Runtime Verification, RV 2014, held in Toronto, ON, Canada in September 2014. The 28 revised full papers presented together with 2 tool papers, and 8short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 70 submissions. The scope of the conference was on following topics: monitoring and trace slicing, runtime verification of distributed and concurrent systems, runtime Verification of real-time and embedded systems, testing and bug finding, and inference and learning.
