Software engineering has over the years been applied in many different fields, ranging from telecommunications to embedded systems in car and aircraft industry as well as in production engineering and computer networks. Foundations in software technology lie in models allowing to capture application domains, detailed requirements, but also to understand the structure and working of software systems like software architectures and programs. These models have to be expressed in techniques based on discrete mathematics, algebra and logics. However, according to the very specific needs in applications of software technology, formal methods have to serve the needs and the quality of advanced software engineering methods, especially taking into account security aspects in Information Technology. This book presents mathematical foundations of software engineering and state-of-the-art engineering methods in their theoretical substance in the step towards practical applications to examine software engineering techniques and foundations used for industrial tasks.

The contributions in this volume emerged from lectures of the 25th International Summer School on Engineering Theories of Software Intensive Systems, held at Marktoberdorf, Germany from August 3 to August 15, 2004.

David Harel has been at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel since 1980. He was Department Head from 1989-95, and was Dean of the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science between 1998 and 2004. He was also co-founder of I-Logix, Inc. He received his PhD from MIT in 1978, and has spent time at IBM Yorktown Heights, and sabbaticals at Carnegie-Mellon University, Cornell University, and the University of Edinburgh. In the past he worked mainly in theoretical computer science (logic, computability, automata, database theory), and he now works mainly on software and systems engineering and on modeling biological systems. He is the inventor of statecharts and co-inventor of live sequence charts, and co-designed Statemate, Rhapsody, the Play-Engine and PlayGo. Among his awards are the ACM Karlstrom Outstanding Educator Award (1992), the Israel Prize (2004), the ACM Software System Award (2007), the Emet Prize (2010), and three honorary degrees. He is a Fellow of the ACM, the IEEE and the AAAS, and a member of the Academia Europaea and the Israel Academy of Sciences.

Dr. rer. nat. Manfred Broy studierte Mathematik und Informatik 1971-76 an der Technischen Universität München. Dort 1976-80 wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter im Sonderforschungsbereich 49 'Programmiertechnik' der DFG. 1980 Promotion, ab 1980 wisschenschaftlicher Assistent und 1982 Habilitation in Informatik an der TU München. 1983 ordentlicher Professor für Informatik und Gründungsdekan an der Fakultät für Mathematik und Informatik der Universität Passau. Seit 1989 ordentlicher Professor für Informatik an der TU München. 1994 Leibniz-Preis der DFG. David Harel ist der Dekan der Fakultät für Mathematik und Informatik des Weizmann-Instituts in Rehovot in Israel. Seine Forschungsinteressen liegen in der theoretischen Informatik, mit den Schwerpunkten Berechenbarkeit, Automatentheorie und Logik der Programmierung. Im Jahr 1992 erhielt er für herausragende Lehre den Karlstrom-Preis der Association for Computing Machinery und 1997 den Softwarepreis des israelischen Ministerpräsidenten. David Harel ist vielfacher Buchautor, und wurde einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit durch eine Reihe von Fernsehinterviews bekannt, die er mit herausragenden Mthematikern und Informatikern für einen israelischen Sender durchführte.
