Model checking and other finite-state analysis techniques have been very successful when used with hardware systems and less successful with software systems. It is especially di...
Program slices are useful in debugging. Most work on program slicing to date has concentrated on nding slices of programs involving only scalar variables. Pointers and composite v...

Objects often define usage protocols that clients must follow in order for these objects to work properly. Aliasing makes it notoriously difficult to check whether clients and i...
We present a language for specifying web service interfaces. A web service interface puts three kinds of constraints on the users of the service. First, the interface specifies th...

We describe a practical method for reasoning about realistic concurrent programs. Our method allows global two-state invariants that restrict update of shared state. We provide sim...
