We consider compositional properties of reactive systems that are secure in a cryptographic sense. We follow the wellknown simulatability approach, i.e., the specification is an ...
Abstract. We describe how the PVS verification system has been used to verify a safety property of a garbage collection algorithm, originally suggested by Ben-Ari. The safety prope...
Timing exception verification has become a center of interest as incorrect constraints can lead to chip failures. Proving that a false path is valid or not is a difficult problem ...
We embed an operational semantics for security protocols in the interactive theorem prover Isabelle/HOL and derive two strong protocol-independent invariants. These invariants allo...
Most previous logical accounts of goals do not deal with prioritized goals and goal dynamics properly. Many are restricted to achievement goals. In this paper, we develop a logica...
