The design of complex systems is largely ruled by the time needed for verification. Even though formal methods can provide higher reliability, in practice often simulation based ve...
The problem of locally transforming or translating programs without altering their semantics is central to the construction of correct compilers. For concurrent shared-memory progr...

Verification Condition Generator (VCG) tools have been effective in simplifying the task of proving programs correct. However, in the past these VCG tools have in general not thems...
Norms defined by institutions and enforced by organizations have been put forward as a mechanism to increase the efficiency and reliability of electronic transactions carried out ...
Attempts to use finite models to guide the search for proofs by resolution and the like in first order logic all suffer from the need to trade off the expense of generating and m...
