ABC: Algebraic Bound Computation for Loops
Abstract. We present ABC, a software tool for automatically computing symbolic upper bounds on the number of iterations of nested program loops. The system combines static analysis...

Dynamically Discovering Likely Program Invariants to Support Program Evolution
ÐExplicitly stated program invariants can help programmers by identifying program properties that must be preserved when modifying code. In practice, however, these invariants are...

Automatically Generating Malicious Disks using Symbolic Execution
Many current systems allow data produced by potentially malicious sources to be mounted as a file system. File system code must check this data for dangerous values or invariant ...

Mixing type checking and symbolic execution
Static analysis designers must carefully balance precision and efficiency. In our experience, many static analysis tools are built around an elegant, core algorithm, but that alg...
