Automated fixing of programs with contracts
In program debugging, finding a failing run is only the first step; what about correcting the fault? Can we automate the second task as well as the first? The AutoFix-E tool au...

Exogenous Probabilistic Computation Tree Logic
We define a logic EpCTL for reasoning about the evolution of probabilistic systems. System states correspond to probability distributions over classical states and the system evo...

A Security Characterisation Framework for Trustworthy Component Based Software Systems
This paper explores how to characterise security properties of software components, and how to reason about their suitability for a trustworthy compositional contract. Our framewo...
