Free Bits, PCPs, and Nonapproximability-Towards Tight Results
This paper continues the investigation of the connection between probabilistically checkable proofs (PCPs) and the approximability of NP-optimization problems. The emphasis is on p...

Modular Verification of Software Components in C
We present a new methodology for automatic verification of C programs against finite state machine specifications. Our approach is compositional, naturally enabling us to decompos...

Logic Programs with Abstract Constraint Atoms
We propose and study extensions of logic programming with constraints represented as generalized atoms of the form C(X), where X is a finite set of atoms and C is act constraint (...
