Abstract. Starting from algebraic properties that enable guessing lowentropy secrets, we formalize guessing rules for symbolic verification. The rules are suited for both off-line ...
Due to the increasing abstraction gap between the initial system model and a final implementation, the verification of the respective models against each other is a formidable task...
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...
While a typical software component has a clearly specified (static) interface in terms of the methods and the input/output types they support, information about the correct sequen...
