We present a logical framework Υ for reasoning on a very general class of languages featuring binding operators, called nominal , presented in higher-order abstract syntax (HOAS)....
We introduce XOR constraints, and show how they enable a theorem prover to reason effectively about security critical subsystems which employ bitwise XOR. Our primary case study is...
Specifications of programs use auxiliary symbols to encapsulate concepts for a variety of reasons: readability, reusability, structuring and, in particular, for writing recursive d...
Event sequence analysis is an important task in many domains: medical researchers may study the patterns of transfers within the hospital for quality control; transportation exper...
Orderings and inference relations can be successfully used to model the behavior of a rational agent. This behavior is indeed represented either by a set of ordered pairs that ref...
