Building BSP Programs Using the Refinement Calculus
Abstract. We extend the refinement calculus to permit the derivation of programs in the Bulk Synchronous Parallelism (BSP) style. This demonstrates that formal approaches developed...

Automating Refinement Checking in Probabilistic System Design
Abstract. Refinement plays a crucial role in "top-down" styles of verification, such as the refinement calculus, but for probabilistic systems proof of refinement is a pa...
