Reasoning about Optimistic Concurrency Using a Program Logic for History
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...

Reasoning about MDPs as Transformers of Probability Distributions
We consider Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) as transformers on probability distributions, where with respect to a scheduler that resolves nondeterminism, the MDP can be seen as ex...

On the Translation of Qualitative Spatial Reasoning Problems into Modal Logics
Among the formalisms for qualitative spatial reasoning, the Region Connection Calculus and its variant, the constraint algebra RCC8, have received particular attention recently. A...

Reasoning About Quantum Systems
Abstract. A new logic is proposed for reasoning about quantum systems. The logic embodies the postulates of quantum physics and it was designed from the semantics upwards by identi...
