This volume contains lectures on leading-edge research in methods and tools for use in computer
system engineering at the 4th International School on Engineering Trustworthy Software Systems
SETSS 2018 held in April 2018 at Southwest University in Chongqing China. The five chapters
in this volume provide an overview of research in the frontier of theories methods and tools
for software modelling design and verification. The topics covered in these chapter include
Software Verification with Whiley Learning Büchi Automata and Its Applications Security in
IoT Applications Programming in Z3 and The Impact of Alan Turing: Formal Methods and Beyond.
The volume provides a useful resource for postgraduate students researchers academics and
engineers in industry who are interested in theory methods and tools for the development of
trustworthy software.
