This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Computer Aided Verification, CAV 2006, held in Seattle, WA, USA in August 2006 as part of the 4th Federated Logic Conference, FLoC 2006. The 35 revised full papers presented together with 10 tool papers and 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 144 submissions adressing all current issues in computer aided verification and model checking - from foundational and methodological issues ranging to the evaluation of major tools and systems. The papers are organized in topical sections on automata, arithmetic, SAT and bounded model checking, abstraction/refinement, symbolic trajectory evaluation, property specification and verification, time, concurrency, trees, pushdown systems and boolean programs, termination, abstract interpretation, memory consistency, and shape analysis.
