Prototyping Symbolic Execution Engines for Interpreted Languages

George Candea, Johannes Kinder, Stefan Bucur

Symbolic execution is being successfully used to automatically test statically compiled code. However, increasingly more systems and applications are written in dynamic interpreted languages like Python. Building a new symbolic execution engine is a monume ...

Battle of the Water Networks II

Qi Wang, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Marco Franchini

The Battle of the Water Networks II (BWN-II) is the latest of a series of competitions related to the design and operation of water distribution systems (WDSs) undertaken within the Water Distribution Systems Analysis (WDSA) Symposium series. The BWN-II pr ...

Extended Connectors: Structuring Glue Operators in BIP

Simon Bliudze, Eduard Baranov

Based on a variation of the BIP operational semantics using the offer predicate introduced in our previous work, we extend the algebras used to model glue operators in BIP to encompass priorities. This extension uses the Algebra of Causal Interaction Trees ...

Stochastic fragments: A framework for the exact reduction of the stochastic semantics of rule-based models

Tatjana Petrov

In this paper, we propose an abstract interpretation-based framework for reducing the state space of stochastic semantics for protein protein interaction networks. Our approach consists in quotienting the state space of networks. Yet interestingly, we do n ...

Rigorous System Design

Joseph Sifakis

The monograph advocates rigorous system design as a coherent and accountable model-based process leading from requirements to correct implementations. It presents the current state of the art in system design, discusses its limitations, and identifies poss ...

Constraints as Control

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter

We present an extension of Scala that supports constraint programming over bounded and unbounded domains. The resulting language, Kaplan, provides the benefits of constraint programming while preserving the existing features of Scala. Kaplan integrates con ...

Formal Analysis of SystemC Designs in Process Algebra

Hossein Hojjat

SystemC is an IEEE standard system-level language used in hardware/software co-design and has been widely adopted in the industry. This paper describes a formal approach to verifying SystemC designs by providing a mapping to the process algebra mCRL2. Our ...

StagedSAC: a case study in performance-oriented DSL development

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Vlad Ureche, Hassan Chafi

Domain-specific languages (DSLs) can bridge the gap between high-level programming and efficient execution. However, implementing compiler tool-chains for performance oriented DSLs requires significant effort. Recent research has produced methodologies and ...

Routing Attacks as a Viable Threat: Can Software Systems Protect Themselves?

Dan Alistarh

In this paper, we show that distributed systems are vul- nerable to routing attacks and propose an architecture to obviate this vulnerability. A somewhat surprising finding is that even a small-scale routing attack can completely dis- rupt the operation of ...
