Pesticide: Using SMT Processors to Improve Performance of Pointer Bug Detection
Pointer bugs associated with dynamically-allocated objects resulting in out-of-bounds memory access are an important class of software bugs. Because such bugs cannot be detected e...

Code and Data Transformations for Improving Shared Cache Performance on SMT Processors
Simultaneous multithreaded processors use shared on-chip caches, which yield better cost-performance ratios. Sharing a cache between simultaneously executing threads causes excessi...

Static and Precise Detection of Concurrency Errors in Systems Code Using SMT Solvers
Context-bounded analysis is an attractive approach to verification of concurrent programs. Bounding the number of contexts executed per thread not only reduces the asymptotic compl...

Precise pointer reasoning for dynamic test generation
Dynamic test generation consists of executing a program while gathering symbolic constraints on inputs from predicates encountered in branch statements, and of using a constraint ...

SoftBound: highly compatible and complete spatial memory safety for c
The serious bugs and security vulnerabilities facilitated by C/C++'s lack of bounds checking are well known, yet C and C++ remain in widespread use. Unfortunately, C's a...
