Slicing is a technique for extracting parts of programs or specifications with respect to certain criteria of interest. The extraction is carried out in such a way that properties ...
Ensuring correctness of software by formal methods is a very relevant and widely studied problem. Automatic verification of software using model checkers from the state space exp...
Slicing is a widely-used technique with applications in e.g. compiler technology and software security. Thus verification of algorithms in these areas is often based on the correc...
Model-based program debugging exploits discrepancies between the program behavior anticipated by a programmer and the program’s actual behavior when executed on a set of inputs....
