Interactive hashing, introduced by Naor, Ostrovsky, Venkatesan and Yung (CRYPTO ’92), plays an important role in many cryptographic protocols. In particular, it is a major compo...
This paper discusses the adaptation of the PVS theorem prover for performing analysis of real-time systems written in the ASTRAL formal specification language. A number of issues w...
