The 24th International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation, VMCAI 2023, was held in Boston, USA, in January 2023. This book encompasses the proceedings of the conference, featuring 17 full papers that were meticulously reviewed and chosen from a total of 34 submissions. The contributions in this volume delve into various areas of software verification, including program verification, model checking, abstract interpretation, program synthesis, static analysis, type systems, deductive methods, decision procedures, theorem proving, program certification, debugging techniques, program transformation, optimization, and hybrid and cyber-physical systems.

The conference brought together experts and researchers from around the world to discuss the latest advancements and challenges in these fields. The papers presented covered a wide range of topics, reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of software verification and modeling.

Program verification involves the analysis of software systems to ensure their correctness and reliability. Model checking is a technique that uses mathematical models to analyze the behavior of software systems and detect potential errors or defects. Abstract interpretation is a technique that allows the analysis of complex systems by translating them into simpler, more manageable models.

Program synthesis is the process of automatically generating software programs from high-level specifications. Static analysis is a technique that examines software programs without executing them and detects potential errors or vulnerabilities. Type systems are used to ensure type safety and correctness in software programs.

Deductive methods are used to prove the correctness of software programs. Decision procedures are used to automate the reasoning and decision-making process in software systems. Theorem proving is a technique that allows the formal verification of complex mathematical theorems.

Program certification is the process of ensuring that software programs meet certain security and reliability standards. Debugging techniques are used to identify and fix errors or defects in software programs. Program transformation is the process of modifying or transforming software programs to improve their performance or functionality.

Optimization is the process of improving the efficiency and performance of software programs. Hybrid and cyber-physical systems are systems that combine physical and digital components and are increasingly used in various industries.

The 24th International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation, VMCAI 2023, provided a platform for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas, share expertise, and collaborate on developing new techniques and solutions for software verification and modeling. The contributions in this book will undoubtedly contribute to the advancement of these fields and have a significant impact on the software industry.
