Randomized active atomicity violation detection in concurrent programs
Atomicity is an important specification that enables programmers to understand atomic blocks of code in a multi-threaded program as if they are sequential. This significantly simp...

Tracking pointers with path and context sensitivity for bug detection in C programs
This paper proposes a pointer alias analysis for automatic error detection. State-of-the-art pointer alias analyses are either too slow or too imprecise for finding errors in real...

ARCHER: using symbolic, path-sensitive analysis to detect memory access errors
Memory corruption errors lead to non-deterministic, elusive crashes. This paper describes ARCHER (ARray CHeckER) a static, effective memory access checker. ARCHER uses path-sensit...

Mining specifications
Program verification is a promising approach to improving program quality, because it can search all possible program executions for specific errors. However, the need to formally...
