We formulate some research and development challenges that relate what a verifying compiler can verify to the definition and analysis of the application-content of programs, where...
Many program maintenance tools rely on traditional parsing techniques to obtain syntactic level models of the code being maintained. When, for some reason, code cannot be parsed, ...
We present a system, BLF, that combines an authorization logic based on the Binder language with a logical framework, LF, able to express semantic properties of programs. BLF is a...
