Abstract. Automata-based interface and protocol specifications provide an elegant framework to capture and automatically verify the interactive behavior of component-based software...
This paper describes a sound technique that combines the precision em proving with the loop-invariant inference of abstract interpretation. The loop-invariant computations are invo...
Traditional DHT (Distributed Hash Tables) abstraction distributes data items among peer nodes on a structured overlay network. This introduces a number of issues when nodes are un...
Security policies are abstract descriptions of how a system should behave to be secure. They typically express what is obligatory, permitted, or forbidden in the system. When the s...
