Memory usage analysis is an important problem for resource-constrained mobile devices, especially under mission- or safety-critical circumstances. Program codes running on or bein...
Program verifiers based on first-order theorem provers model the program heap as a collection of mutable maps. In such verifiers, preserving unmodified facts about the heap acr...
