The Rely-Guarantee approach is a well-known compositional method for proving Hoare logic properties of concurrent programs. In this approach, predicates in the proof must be proved...
Abstract. The use of formal methods provides confidence in the correctness of developments. Yet one may argue about the actual level of confidence obtained when the method itself...
Checking various temporal requirements is a key dependability concern in safety-critical systems. As modelchecking approaches do not scale well to systems of high complexity the r...
We extend classical first-order logic with subtyping by type predicates and type coercion. Type predicates assert that the value of a term belongs to a more special type than the ...
Abstract. This paper describes the design and implementation of SweetProlog, a system for translating Web rules into Prolog. It enables the integration of ontologies and rules on t...
