CETS: compiler enforced temporal safety for C
Temporal memory safety errors, such as dangling pointer dereferences and double frees, are a prevalent source of software bugs in unmanaged languages such as C. Existing schemes t...

Automatically Validating Temporal Safety Properties of Interfaces
Abstract. We present a process for validating temporal safety properties of software that uses a well-defined interface. The process requires only that the user state the property...

Formalizing Homogeneous Language Embeddings
The cost of implementing syntactically distinct Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) can be reduced by homogeneously embedding them in a host language in cooperation with its compiler...

Axis: Automatically fixing atomicity violations through solving control constraints
Abstract—Atomicity, a general correctness criterion in concurrency programs, is often violated in real-world applications. The violations are difficult for developers to fix, m...

Checking type safety of foreign function calls
We present a multi-lingual type inference system for checking type safety across a foreign function interface. The goal of our system is to prevent foreign function calls from int...
