We present an approach for the design and analysis of an electronic voting machine based on a novel combination of formal verification and systematic testing. The system was desig...

We propose a dependent type theory that integrates programming, specifications, and reasoning about higher-order concurrent programs with shared transactional memory. The design ...

Abstract. The Java Modeling Language (JML) recently switched to an assertion semantics based on "strong validity" in which an assertion is taken to be valid precisely whe...
Atomicity is a fundamental correctness property in multithreaded programs. This paper presents an algorithm for verifying atomicity via type inference. The underlying type system ...

—Formal methods provide remarkable tools allowing for high levels of confidence in the correctness of developments. Their use is therefore encouraged, when not required, for the...
