Scaling Language Features for Program Verification

Formal verification of real-world software systems remains challenging for a number of reasons, including lack of automation, friction in specifying properties, and limited support for the diverse programming paradigms used in industry. In this thesis we m ...

Refutation-based synthesis in SMT

Viktor Kuncak, Andrew Joseph Reynolds

We introduce the first program synthesis engine implemented inside an SMT solver. We present an approach that extracts solution functions from unsatisfiability proofs of the negated form of synthesis conjectures. We also discuss novel counterexample-guided ...

Verified Functional Programming

Nicolas Charles Yves Voirol

In this thesis, we present Stainless, a verification system for an expressive subset of the Scala language. Our system is based on a dependently-typed language and an algorithmic type checking procedure which ensures total correctness. We rely on SMT solve ...

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 ...

A new analysis approach for T-2 relaxometry myelin water quantification: Orthogonal Matching Pursuit

Guillaume Jean Op 't Veld

Purpose: In vivo myelin quantification can provide valuable noninvasive information on neuronal maturation and development, as well as insights into neurological disorders. Multiexponential analysis of multiecho T-2 relaxation is a powerful and widely appl ...

Functional Decomposition Using Majority

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken

Typical operators for the decomposition of Boolean functions in state-of-the-art algorithms are AND, exclusive-OR (XOR), and a 2-to-1 multiplexer (MUX). We propose a logic decomposition algorithm that uses the majority-of-three (MAJ) operation. Such decomp ...

Exploiting Satisfiability Solvers for Efficient Logic Synthesis

Ana Petkovska

Logic synthesis is an important part of electronic design automation (EDA) flows, which enable the implementation of digital systems. As the design size and complexity increase, the data structures and algorithms for logic synthesis must adapt and improve ...

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 Resource Verification

Ravichandhran Kandhadai Madhavan

Static estimation of resource utilisation of programs is a challenging and important problem with numerous applications. In this thesis, I present new algorithms that enable users to specify and verify their desired bounds on resource usage of functional p ...

LMS-Verify: Abstraction without Regret for Verified Systems Programming’

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

Performance critical software is almost always developed in C, as programmers do not trust high-level languages to deliver the same reliable performance. This is bad because low-level code in unsafe languages attracts security vulnerabilities and because d ...

Synthesis Modulo Recursive Functions

Viktor Kuncak, Etienne Kneuss, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Ivan Kuraj

We describe techniques for synthesis and verification of recursive functional programs over unbounded domains. Our techniques build on top of an algorithm for satisfiability modulo recursive functions, a framework for deductive synthesis, and complete synt ...

Towards Complete Reasoning about Axiomatic Specifications

Viktor Kuncak, Swen Jacobs

To support verification of expressive properties of functional programs, we consider algebraic style specifications that may relate multiple user-defined functions, and compare multiple invocations of a function for different arguments. We present decision ...

Building a Calculus of Data Structures

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Ruzica Piskac

Techniques such as verification condition generation, predicate abstraction, and expressive type systems reduce software verification to proving formulas in expressive logics. Programs and their specifications often make use of data structures such as sets ...

Finding Loop Invariants for Programs over Arrays Using a Theorem Prover

We present a new method for automatic generation of loop invariants for programs containing arrays. Unlike all previously known methods, our method allows one to generate first-order invariants containing alternations of quantifiers. The method is based on ...

Combining Theories with Shared Set Operations

Viktor Kuncak, Ruzica Piskac

Motivated by applications in software verification, we explore automated reasoning about the non-disjoint combination of theories of infinitely many finite structures, where the theories share set variables and set operations. We prove a combination theore ...

Decision Procedures for Multisets with Cardinality Constraints

Viktor Kuncak, Ruzica Piskac

Applications in software verification and interactive theorem proving often involve reasoning about sets of objects. Cardinality constraints on such collections also arise in these scenarios. Multisets arise for analogous reasons as sets: abstracting the c ...

A profiling framework for high level design space exploration for memory and system architectures

In 1971, the first microprocessor produced in mass production had 2300 transistor and was able to compute 60'000 operations per second at 740 kHz. Nowadays, even a common gaming console uses a central unit including 243 millions of transistors running at 4 ...
