This book constitutes the proceedings of the 12th International Symposium on Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis, ATVA 2014, held in Sydney, Australia, in November 2014.
The 29 revised papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 76 submissions. They show current research on theoretical and practical aspects of automated analysis, verification and synthesis by providing an international forum for interaction among the researchers in academia and industry.
