In this paper, we present and illustrate an approach to compositional reasoning for hardware/software co-verification of embedded systems. The major challenges in compositional rea...
Abstract--We present a refinement-based compositional framework for showing that pipelined machines satisfy the same safety and liveness properties as their non-pipelined specifica...
System specifications have long been expressed through automata-based languages, enabling verification techniques such as model checking. These verification techniques can assess ...
We give a quantitative sequential model for noninterference security with probability (but not demonic choice), and a novel refinement order that we prove to be the greatest compo...
