Sequential sampling for solving stochastic programs
We develop a sequential sampling procedure for solving a class of stochastic programs. A sequence of feasible solutions, with at least one optimal limit point, is given as input t...

A Hoare Logic for the Coinductive Trace-Based Big-Step Semantics of While
In search for a foundational framework for reasoning about observable behavior of programs that may not terminate, we have previously devised a trace-based big-step semantics for W...

Improved Matrix Interpretation
We present a new technique to prove termination of Term Rewriting Systems, with full automation. A crucial task in this context is to find suitable well-founded orderings. A popul...

Automated Verification of a Randomized Distributed Consensus Protocol Using Cadence SMV and PRISM
We consider the randomized consensus protocol of Aspnes and Herlihy for achieving agreement among N asynchronous processes that communicate via read/write shared registers. The alg...

Polynomial Time Inference of a Subclass of Context-Free Transformations
This paper deals with a class of Prolog programs, called context-free term transformations (CFT). We present a polynomial time algorithm to identify a subclass of CFT, whose progr...
