This paper describes a mechanism by which an operating system kernel can determine with certainty that it is safe to execute a binary supplied by an untrusted source. The kernel r...
—In this paper we show that it is possible to implement a perfect failure detector P (one that detects all faulty processes if and only if those processes failed) in a non-synchr...
Formal sequentialization is introduced as a rewriting process for the reduction of parallelism and internal communication statements of distributed imperative programs. It constru...

We overview the development of first-order automated reasoning systems starting from their early years. Based on the analysis of current and potential applications of such systems...
In this paper we present two type inference systems for detecting useless-code in higher-order typed functional programs. Type inference can be performed in an efficient and compl...
