We argue for the importance of tool integration in achieving the Program Verifier Grand Challenge. In particular, we argue for what we call strong integration, i.e. a co-operative...
How close are we to a world in which mechanically verified software is commonplace? A world in which theorem proving technology is used routinely by both software developers and p...

The grand challenge that is the focus of this conference targets the development of a practical methodology for software verification: a methodology that can help us to reduce the ...
The validation of modern software systems on mobile devices needs to incorporate both functional and non-functional requirements. While some progress has been made in validating pe...

We formulate some research and development challenges that relate what a verifying compiler can verify to the definition and analysis of the application-content of programs, where...
This paper argues that specified blocks have every advantage over the combination of assertions, preconditions, postconditions, invariants, and variants, both for verifying program...
In this paper, we consider the Grand Challenge under a very specific perspective: the enabling of application experts without programming knowledge to reliably model their busines...
The interplay back and forth between software model checking and hardware model checking has been fruitful for both. Originally intended for the analysis of concurrent software, mo...
