Abstract. Proof-carrying code (PCC) allows a code producer to associate to a program a machine-checkable proof of its safety. In the original approach to PCC, the safety policy inc...
Abstract. We present a proof theoretical method for de-compiling lowlevel code to the typed lambda calculus. We first define a proof system for a low-level code language based on...
Model Checking of Infinite Specifications Daniel Jackson School of Computer Science Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, PA A new method for analyzing specifications in languages...
Deduction modulo consists in presenting a theory through rewrite rules to support automatic and interactive proof search. It induces proof search methods based on narrowing, such a...
The width of a Resolution proof is defined to be the maximal number of literals in any clause of the proof. In this paper, we relate proof width to proof length (ϭsize), in both g...
