The current specification for IEEE 802.15.4 beacon-enabled networks does not define how active and sleep schedules should be configured in order to achieve the optimal network perf...
Separation logic allows simple proofs of concurrent algorithms which use blocking mechanisms such as semaphores. It can even deal with non-blocking algorithms. With the addition of...
Framing in the presence of data abstraction is a challenging and important problem in the verification of object-oriented programs [LLM07]. The dynamic frames approach is a promisi...

Code and design smells are recurring design problems in software systems that must be identified to avoid their possible negative consequences on development and maintenance. Conse...
Data refinement is a common approach to reasoning about programs, based on establishing that te program indeed satisfies all the required properties imposed by an intended abstract...
