A Formal Automated Approach for Reverse Engineering Programs with Pointers
Given a program S and a precondition Q, the strongest postcondition, denoted sp(S Q), is defined as the strongest condition that holds after the execution of S, given that S term...

Moving Proofs-As-Programs into Practice
Proofs in the Nuprl system, an implementation of a constructive type theory, yield “correct-by-construction” programs. In this paper a new methodology is presented for extract...
