We describe a sound method for automatically proving Hoare triples for loop-free code in Separation Logic, for certain preconditions and postconditions (symbolic heaps). The method...

We propose a novel approach to proving the termination of heapmanipulating programs, which combines separation logic with cyclic proof within a Hoare-style proof system. Judgement...

Specifications of Object-Oriented programs conventionally employ Boolean expressions of the programming language for assertions. Programming errors can be discovered by checking at...

Abstract. A proof method is described which combines compositional proofs of interleaved parallel programs with the intuitive and highly automatic strategy of symbolic execution. A...
This paper presents a new technique, called Symbolic Program Decomposition (or SPD), for symbolic execution of multiple paths that is more scalable than existing techniques, which...
