Conditions on input vectors for consensus solvability in asynchronous distributed systems
This article introduces and explores the condition-based approach to solve the consensus problem in asynchronous systems. The approach studies conditions that identify sets of inpu...

Cyclic proofs of program termination in separation logic
We propose a novel approach to proving the termination of heapmanipulating programs, which combines separation logic with cyclic proof within a Hoare-style proof system. Judgement...

Backward Reachability of Array-based Systems by SMT solving: Termination and Invariant Synthesis
The safety of infinite state systems can be checked by a backward reachability procedure. For certain classes of systems, it is possible to prove the termination of the procedure ...

Verifying liveness for asynchronous programs
Asynchronous or "event-driven" programming is a popular technique to efficiently and flexibly manage concurrent interactions. In these programs, the programmer can post ...

Distributive Lattice-Structured Ontologies
Abstract. In this paper we describe a language and method for deriving ontologies and ordering databases. The ontological structures arrived at are distributive lattices with attri...
