Equivalence between designs is a fundamental notion in verification. The linear and branching approaches to verification induce different notions of equivalence. When the designs...
We consider formulas which, in addition to the symbols in the vocabulary, may use two designated symbols ≺ and + that must be interpreted as a linear order and its associated ad...
The ongoing scaling of semiconductor technology is causing severe increase of on-chip power density and temperature in microprocessors. This has raised urgent requirement for both...
This work builds on earlier work by Rogaway at Asiacrypt 2004 on tweakable block cipher (TBC) and modes of operations. Our first contribution is to generalize Rogaway's TBC co...
Logical properties of iterations of relational structures are studied and these decidability results are applied to the model checking of a powerful extension of pushdown systems....
