Abstract. In formal approaches, messages sent over a network are usually modeled by terms together with an equational theory, axiomatizing the properties of the cryptographic funct...
Abstract. Experiments show that many inequalities involving exponentials and logarithms can be proved automatically by combining a resolution theorem prover with a decision procedu...
Sequence logic is a parameterized logic where the formulas are sequences of formulas of some arbitrary underlying logic. The sequence formulas are interpreted in certain linearly o...
Abstract. The use of formal methods provides confidence in the correctness of developments. Yet one may argue about the actual level of confidence obtained when the method itself...
Operational models of (security) protocols, on one hand, are readable and conveniently match their implementation (at a certain abstraction level). Epistemic models, on the other h...

Abstract. This paper provides a new, decidable definition of the higherorder recursive path ordering in which type comparisons are made only when needed, therefore eliminating the...
Abstract. We present Zenon, an automated theorem prover for first order classical logic (with equality), based on the tableau method. Zenon is intended to be the dedicated prover ...
Many analysis techniques and decidability results have been obtained for cryptographic protocols. However all of them consider protocols with limited procedures for the processing ...
In this paper we propose a nonmonotonic extension ALC + Tmin of the Description Logic ALC for reasoning about prototypical properties and inheritance with exception. The logic ALC ...
