Abstract. Optimistic and nonblocking concurrent algorithms are increasingly finding their way into practical use; an important example is software transactional memory implementat...
We propose a novel method for modular verification of web service compositions. We first use symbolic fixpoint computations to derive conditions on the incoming messages and relat...
We present an effective dynamic analysis for finding a broad class of deadlocks, including the well-studied lock-only deadlocks as well as the less-studied, but no less widespread...
Abstract. The Ravenscar Profile is a restricted subset of the Ada tasking model, designed to meet the requirements of producing analysable and deterministic code. A central featur...
Symbolic model checking has proved highly successful for large nite-state systems, in which states can be compactly encoded using binary decision diagrams (BDDs) or their variants...
