Abstract. We describe how the PVS verification system has been used to verify a safety property of a garbage collection algorithm, originally suggested by Ben-Ari. The safety prope...
Abstract. We study the decidability and complexity of verification problems for timed automata over time intervals of fixed, bounded length. One of our main results is that time-bo...
Boolean programs with recursion are convenient abstractions of sequential imperative programs, and can be represented as recursive state machines (RSMs) or pushdown automata. Motiv...
Recombination (also called crossover) operators are widely used in EAs to generate offspring solutions. Although the usefulness of recombination has been well recognized, theoretic...
Abstract. Linearizability is a commonly accepted notion of correctness for libraries of concurrent algorithms. Unfortunately, it assumes a complete isolation between a library and ...
