Reasoning About Threads Communicating via Locks
Abstract. We propose a new technique for the static analysis of concurrent programs comprised of multiple threads. In general, the problem is known to be undecidable even for progr...

Interpolant-Based Transition Relation Approximation
Abstract. In predicate abstraction, exact image computation is problematic, requiring in the worst case an exponential number of calls to a decision procedure. For this reason, sof...

Incremental and Complete Bounded Model Checking for Full PLTL
Bounded model checking is an efficient method for finding bugs in system designs. The major drawback of the basic method is that it cannot prove properties, only disprove them. R...

Incremental Algorithms for Inter-procedural Analysis of Safety Properties
Automaton-based static program analysis has proved to be an effective tool for bug finding. Current tools generally re-analyze a program from scratch in response to a change in t...
