We explain the design of the interpretation-based static analyzer Astr´ee and its use to prove the absence of run-time errors in safety-critical codes. Categories and Subject Des...
The need of developing a new software engineering process (SEP) that could allow the quick prototyping of some robotic applications and meet the requests coming from some companie...
The record of successful applications of formal verification techniques is slowly growing. Our ultimate aim, however, is not to perform small pilot projects that show that verific...
In this paper, a novel method for high-level specification and validation of SoC designs using UML is proposed. UML is introduced as a formal model of specification for SoC design...
In earlier work we have argued that formal process definitions can be useful in improving our understanding and performance of software development processes. There has, however,...
