The soundness of device drivers generally cannot be verified in isolation, but has to take into account the reactions of the hardware devices. In critical embedded systems, interf...
Many analysis techniques have been proposed to determine when a potentially null value may be dereferenced. But we have observed in practice that not every potential null derefere...
contexts such as construction of abstractions, speed may be favored over completeness, so that undecidable theories (e.g., nonlinear integer arithmetic) and those whose decision pr...
Abstract. We distill Penrose’s argument against the “artificial intelligence premiss”, and analyze its logical alternatives. We then clarify the different positions one can...
A component is the basic re-usable unit of composition to build composite systems by connecting to others through their provided and required ports. Checking the functional complia...
