Relevance heuristics for program analysis
Relevance heuristics allow us to tailor a program analysis to a particular property to be verified. This in turn makes it possible to improve the precision of the analysis where n...

Generating precise and concise procedure summaries
We present a framework for generating procedure summaries that are precise -- applying the summary in a given context yields the same result as re-analyzing the procedure in that ...

Preferential path profiling: compactly numbering interesting paths
Path profiles provide a more accurate characterization of a program's dynamic behavior than basic block or edge profiles, but are relatively more expensive to collect. This h...

Program verification as probabilistic inference
In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for proving the validity or invalidity of a pre/postcondition pair for a program. The algorithm is motivated by the success of the algori...

Engineering with logic: HOL specification and symbolic-evaluation testing for TCP implementations
The TCP/IP protocols and Sockets API underlie much of modern computation, but their semantics have historically been very complex and ill-defined. The real standard is the de fact...
