Chat2Code: A Chatbot for Model Specification and Code Generation, The Case of Smart Contracts

Shailesh Mishra

The potential of automatic code generation through Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) frameworks has yet to be realized. Beyond their ability to help software professionals write more accurate, reusable code, MDE frameworks could make programming accessible fo ...

Decentralized in-order execution of a sequential task-based code for shared-memory architectures

Charly Nicolas Lucien Castes

The hardware complexity of modern machines makes the design of adequate programming models crucial for jointly ensuring performance, portability, and productivity in high-performance computing (HPC). Sequential task-based programming models paired with adv ...

Verification of Software Network Functions with No Verification Expertise

Arseniy Zaostrovnykh

Software network functions (NFs), such as a network address translator, load balancer, or proxy, promise to bring flexibility and rapid innovation to computer networks and to reduce operational costs. However, continuous updates and flexibility typically c ...

Zippy LL(1) Parsing with Derivatives

Viktor Kuncak, Jad Hamza, Romain Edelmann

In this paper, we present an efficient, functional, and formally verified parsing algorithm for LL(1) context-free expressions based on the concept of derivatives of formal languages. Parsing with derivatives is an elegant parsing technique, which, in the ...

Scaling Functional Synthesis and Repair

Emmanouil Koukoutos

Program synthesis was first proposed a few decades ago, but in the last decade it has gained increased momentum in the research community. The increasing complexity of software has dictated the urgent need for improved supporting tools that verify the soft ...

Theory and Practice of Coroutines with Snapshots

Fengyun Liu, Aleksandar Prokopec

While event-driven programming is a widespread model for asynchronous computing, its inherent control flow fragmentation makes event-driven programs notoriously difficult to understand and maintain. Coroutines are a general control flow construct that can ...

An Update on Deductive Synthesis and Repair in the Leon Tool

Viktor Kuncak, Etienne Kneuss, Emmanouil Koukoutos

We report our progress in scaling deductive synthesis and repair of recursive functional Scala programs in the Leon tool. We describe new techniques, including a more precise mechanism for encoding the space of meaningful candidate programs. Our techniques ...

Algorithmic Verification of Component-based Systems

Qiang Wang

This dissertation discusses algorithmic verification techniques for concurrent component-based systems modeled in the Behavior-Interaction-Priority (BIP) framework with both bounded and unbounded concurrency. BIP is a component framework for mixed software ...

Configuration logics: Modeling architecture styles

Simon Bliudze, Joseph Sifakis, Anastasia Mavridou, Eduard Baranov

We study a framework for the specification of architecture styles as families of architectures involving a common set of types of components and coordination mechanisms. The framework combines two logics: 1) interaction logics for the specification of arch ...

A Semantic Framework for Architecture Modelling

Eduard Baranov

Architectures are common means for organising coordination between components in order to build complex systems and to make them manageable. They allow thinking on a higher plane and avoiding low-level mistakes. Architectures provide means for ensuring cor ...

Modelling Architecture Styles

Anastasia Mavridou

Software systems tend to increase over time in size and complexity. Their development usually spans a long period of time and often results in systems that are hard to understand, debug and maintain. Architectures are common means for organising coordinati ...

Synthesizing efficient systems in probabilistic environments

Barbara Jobstmann

We present a formalism, algorithms and tools to synthesise reactive systems that behave efficiently, i.e., which achieve an optimal trade-off between a given cost and reward model. Synthesis aims to automatically generate a program from a specification. Mo ...

Animation-Based Service Specification, Verification and Validation

Biljana Bajic-Bizumic

[Context] With the expansion of services and service science, service systems have become an important abstraction for the service revolution. Service is defined as the application of resources (including competences, skills, and knowledge) to make changes ...

International portfolios: A comparison of solution methods

Serhiy Stepanchuk

We compare the performance of the perturbation-based (local) portfolio solution method of Devereux & Sutherland (2010a, 2011) with a global solution method. As a test suite we use model specifications that broadly capture features of international financia ...

Developing Verified Software Using Leon

Viktor Kuncak

We present Leon, a system for developing functional Scala programs annotated with contracts. Contracts in Leon can themselves refer to recursively defined functions. Leon aims to find counterexamples when functions do not meet the specifications, and proof ...

Improving Scalability of Symbolic Execution for Software with Complex Environment Interfaces

Stefan Bucur

Manual software testing is laborious and prone to human error. Yet, among practitioners, it is the most popular method for quality assurance. Automating the test case generation promises better effectiveness, especially for exposing corner-case bugs. Symbo ...

Synthesizing robust systems

Barbara Jobstmann

Systems should not only be correct but also robust in the sense that they behave reasonably in unexpected situations. This article addresses synthesis of robust reactive systems from temporal specifications. Existing methods allow arbitrary behavior if ass ...

Sound Compilation of Reals

Viktor Kuncak, Eva Darulova

Writing accurate numerical software is hard because of many sources of unavoidable uncertainties, including finite numerical precision of implementations. We present a programming model where the user writes a program in a real-valued implementation and sp ...

Methods to explore design space for MPEG RMC codec specifications

Marco Mattavelli, Endri Bezati, Simone Casale Brunet, Ghislain Roquier, Richard Thavot

The recent MPEG Reconfigurable Media Coding (RMC) standard aims at defining media processing specifications (e.g. video codecs) in a form that abstracts from the implementation platform, but at the same time is an appropriate starting point for implementat ...
