Explaining Verification Conditions
The Hoare approach to program verification relies on the construction and discharge of verification conditions (VCs) but offers no support to trace, analyze, and understand the VCs...

Automatic Parallel Program Generation and Optimization from Data Decompositions
Data decomposition is probably the most successful method for generating parallel programs. In this paper a general framework is described for the automatic generation of parallel...

Reasoning About States of Probabilistic Sequential Programs
A complete and decidable propositional logic for reasoning about states of probabilistic sequential programs is presented. The state logic is then used to obtain a sound Hoare-styl...
