Semantics of Separation-Logic Typing and Higher-order Frame Rules for Algol-like Languages
We show how to give a coherent semantics to programs that are well-specified in a version of separation logic for a language with higher types: idealized algol extended with heaps ...

Model Checking Probabilistic Pushdown Automata
We consider the model checking problem for probabilistic pushdown automata (pPDA) and properties expressible in various probabilistic logics. We start with properties that can be ...

Approximate reasoning for real-time probabilistic processes
We develop a pseudo-metric analogue of bisimulation for generalized semi-Markov processes. The kernel of this pseudo-metric corresponds to bisimulation; thus we have extended bisi...
