A lock placement describes, for each heap location, which lock guards the location, and under what circumstances. We formalize methods for reasoning about lock placements, making p...

Transient faults are single-shot hardware errors caused by high energy particles from space, manufacturing defects, overheating, and other sources. Such faults can be devastating f...
Abstract. This paper studies computational issues related to the problem of reasoning about actions and change (RAC) by exploiting its link with the Answer Set Programming paradigm...

In this paper we argue that for realistic applications involving default reasoning it is necessary to reason about the priorities of defaults. Existing approaches require the know...
Optimistic concurrency algorithms provide good performance for parallel programs but they are extremely hard to reason about. Program logics such as concurrent separation logic and...
