Abstract. In this paper we describe an approach to the representation and implementation of agent-based systems where the behaviour of an individual agent is represented by a set o...
Abstract. An approach based on term rewriting techniques for the automated termination analysis of imperative programs operating on integers is presented. An imperative program is ...
In traditional information-flow type systems, the security policy is often formalized as noninterference properties. However, noninterference alone is too strong to express securi...
Abstract. The paper presents a deductive framework for proving program equivalence and its application to automatic verification of transformations performed by optimizing compiler...
Noninterference is the basic semantical condition used to account for confidentiality and integrity-related properties in programming languages. There appears to be an at least im...
