A static analysis design is sufficient if it can prove the property of interest with an acceptable number of false alarms. Ultimately, the only way to confirm that an analysis d...
Executable formal speci cation can allow engineers to test (or simulate) the speci ed system on concrete data before the system is implemented. This is beginning to gain acceptance...
Abstract. The paper presents a novel technique to create implementations of the basic primitives used in symbolic program analysis: forward symbolic evaluation, weakest liberal pre...
We introduce two abstract models for multithreaded programs based on dynamic networks of pushdown systems. We address the problem of symbolic reachability analysis for these models...
Abstract. This paper describes symbolic techniques for the construction, representation and analysis of large, probabilistic systems. Symbolic approaches derive their efficiency by...
