An analysis and visualization for revealing object sharing
Sharing mutable data (via aliasing) is a powerful programming technique. To facilitate sharing, object-oriented programming languages permit the programmer to selectively break en...

On the Relationship Between Concurrent Separation Logic and Assume-Guarantee Reasoning
We study the relationship between Concurrent Separation Logic (CSL) and the assume-guarantee (A-G) method (a.k.a. rely-guarantee method). We show in three steps that CSL can be tre...
