About the Author :
ALBERT M. K. CHENG, PhD, received his doctorate in computer science from the University of Texas at Austin, where he held a GTE Foundation Doctoral Fellowship. He is currently an associate professor in the department of computer science at the University of Houston, where he is the founding director of the Real-Time Systems Laboratory. He is the author and coauthor of over sixty refereed publications, and has received numerous awards, including the NSF Career award. He has served as a technical consultant for several organizations, including IBM, and has served on the program committees of many conferences.

Review :
"The author provides a substantial, up-to-date overview of the verification and validation process…" (Computer Magazine, November 2004) "The unifying discussion on the formal analysis and verification methods are especially valuable and enlightening, both for graduate students and researchers." (International Journal of General Systems, December 2003)
