Finding bugs with a constraint solver
A method for finding bugs in code is presented. For given small numbers j and k, the code of a procedure is translated into a relational formula whose models represent all executi...

A randomized scheduler with probabilistic guarantees of finding bugs
This paper presents a randomized scheduler for finding concurrency bugs. Like current stress-testing methods, it repeatedly runs a given test program with supplied inputs. Howeve...

Input generation via decomposition and re-stitching: finding bugs in Malware
Attackers often take advantage of vulnerabilities in benign software, and the authors of benign software must search their code for bugs in hopes of finding vulnerabilities before...
