We analyze three proof strategies commonly used in deductive verification of deterministic sequential programs formalized with operational semantics. The strategies are: (i) stepw...

We show how formal specifications can be integrated into one of the current pragmatic object-oriented software development methods. Jacobson's "Object-Oriented Software ...
Abstract. Theorem provers, model checkers, static analyzers, test generators. . . all of these and many other kinds of formal methods tools can contribute to the analysis and devel...
Shapley's impossibility result indicates that the two-person bargaining problem has no non-trivial ordinal solution with the traditional game-theoretic bargaining model. Alth...
Abstract. We study the lattice structure of sets (monoids) of surjective hyper-operations on an n-element domain. Through a Galois connection, these monoids form the algebraic coun...
