Sampling has been successfully used to identify performance optimization opportunities. We would like to apply similar techniques to check program correctness. Unfortunately, samp...
The systematic exploration of the space of all the behaviours of a software system forms the basis of numerous approaches to verification. However, existing approaches face many c...
