Logic for Computational Effects: Work in Progress
We outline a possible logic that will allow us to give a unified approach to reasoning about computational effects. The logic is given by extending Moggi’s computational λ-cal...

Using Admissible Interference to Detect Denial of Service Vulnerabilities
Meadows recently proposed a formal cost-based framework for analysis of denial of service. It was showed how some principles that have already been used to make cryptographic prot...

Derivation of Distributed Programs in the Theory of Owicki and Gries: An Example
This paper describes the derivation of a program for the propagation of information over a network, with acknowledgement (feedback) when the computation is complete. The derivatio...
