Satisfiability Modulo Recursive Programs

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Ali Sinan Köksal

We present a semi-decision procedure for checking satisfiability of expressive correctness properties of recursive first-order functional programs. In our approach, both properties and programs are expressed in the same language, a subset of Scala. We impl ...

Why Nothing Matters: The Impact of Zeroing

Jennifer Bedke Sartor, Xi Yang

Memory safety defends against inadvertent and malicious misuse of memory that may compromise program correctness and security. A critical element of memory safety is zero initialization. The direct cost of zero initialization is surprisingly high: up to 12 ...

Deadlock Immunity

Horatiu Jula

Deadlock immunity is a property by which programs, once afflicted by a deadlock, develop resistance against future occurrences of that deadlock. We enable real applications to automatically achieve immunity against deadlock bugs involving mutex locks, sema ...

Performance Profiling of Virtual Machines

Willy Zwaenepoel, Jiaqing Du

Profilers based on hardware performance counters are indispensable for performance debugging of complex software systems. All modern processors feature hardware performance counters, but current virtual machine monitors (VMMs) do not properly expose them t ...

iProve: A Scalable Approach to Consumer-Verifiable Software Guarantees

George Candea, Horatiu Jula, Silviu Andrica

Formally proving complex program properties is still considered impractical for systems with over a million lines of code (MLOC). We present iProve, an approach that enables the generation and verification of proofs for interesting program properties in la ...

Reﬂexes: Abstractions for Integrating Highly Responsive Tasks into Java Applications

Rachid Guerraoui, Jesper Honig Spring

Achieving submillisecond response times in a managed language environment such as Java or C# requires overcoming signiﬁcant challenges. In this article, we propose Reﬂexes, a programming model and runtime system infrastructure that lets developers seamless ...

Complete Program Synthesis for Linear Arithmetic

Mikaël Mayer

Synthesis of programs or their fragments is a way to write programs by providing only their meaning without worrying about the implementation details. It avoids the drawback of writing sequential code, which might be difficult to check, error-prone or tedi ...

Compiling Scala for Performance

Iulian Dragos

Scala is a new programming language bringing together object-oriented and functional programming. Its defining features are uniformity and extensibility. Scala offers great flexibility for programmers, allowing them to grow the language through libraries. ...

Precise static analysis of untrusted driver binaries

Johannes Kinder

Most closed source drivers installed on desktop systems today have never been exposed to formal analysis. Without vendor support, the only way to make these often hastily written, yet critical programs accessible to static analysis is to directly work at t ...

Language Virtualization for Heterogeneous Parallel Computing

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Hassan Chafi

As heterogeneous parallel systems become dominant, application developers are being forced to turn to an incompatible mix of low level programming models (e.g. OpenMP, MPI, CUDA, OpenCL). However, these models do little to shield developers from the diffic ...
