A closer look at aspect interference and cooperation
In this work we consider specification and compositional verification for interference detection when several aspects are woven together under joint-weaving semantics without re...

An Empirical Evaluation of Automated Theorem Provers in Software Certification
We describe a system for the automated certification of safety properties of NASA software. The system uses Hoare-style program verification technology to generate proof obligatio...

Cones and foci: A mechanical framework for protocol verification
We define a cones and foci proof method, which rephrases the question whether two system specifications are branching bisimilar in terms of proof obligations on relations between ...

A TLA+ Proof System
We describe an extension to the TLA+ specification language with constructs for writing proofs and a proof environment, called the Proof Manager (PM), to checks those proofs. The ...

Model Based Refinement and the Tools of Tomorrow
The ingredients of typical model based development via refinement are re-examined, and some well known frameworks are reviewed in that light, drawing out commonalities and differen...

On the Purpose of Event-B Proof Obligations
Event-B is a formal modelling method which is claimed to be suitable for diverse modelling domains, such as reactive systems and sequential program development. This claim hinges o...

Automatic Verification for a Class of Proof Obligations with SMT-Solvers
Abstract. Software development in B and Event-B generates proof obligations that have to be discharged using theorem provers. The cost of such developments therefore depends direct...

Synthesizing Proofs from Programs in the Calculus of Inductive Constructions
We want to prove \automatically" that a program is correct with respect to a set of given properties that is a speci cation. Proofs of speci cations contain logical parts and ...

Computer-Assisted Simulation Proofs
Abstract. This paper presents a scalable approach to reasoning formally about distributed algorithms. It uses results about I O automata to extract a set of proof obligations for s...

Dynamic Boundaries: Information Hiding by Second Order Framing with First Order Assertions
Abstract. The hiding of internal invariants creates a mismatch between procedure specifications in an interface and proof obligations on the implementations of those procedures. T...
