Reasoning about the correctness of multithreaded programs is complicated by the potential for unexpected interference between threads. Previous work on controlling thread interfer...
Research on how to reason about correctness properties of software systems using model checking is advancing rapidly. Work on exnite-state models from program source code and on ab...
