We present an approach for describing tests using non-deterministic test generation programs. To write test generation programs, we introduce UDITA, a Java-based language with non-deterministic choice operators and an interface for generating linked struct ...
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 ...
We explore the problem of automated reasoning about the non-disjoint combination of theories that share set variables and operations. We prove a combination theorem and apply it to show the decidability of the satisfiability problem for a class of formulas ...
Distributed systems are difficult to design and develop. The difficulties arise both in basic safety correctness properties, and in achieving high performance. As a result of this complexity, the implementation of a distributed system often contains the ba ...
Synthesis of program fragments from specifications can make programs easier to write and easier to reason about. To integrate synthesis into programming languages, synthesis algorithms should behave in a predictable way---they should succeed for a well-def ...
We explore the problem of automated reasoning about the non-disjoint combination of logics that share set variables and operations. We prove a general combination theorem, and apply it to show the decidability for the quantifier-free combination of formula ...
Pattern matching is a widespread programming language construct that enables definitions of values by cases, generalizing if-then-else and case statements. The cases in a pattern matching expression should be exhaustive: when the value does not match any o ...
Logics that involve collections (sets, multisets), and cardinality constraints are useful for reasoning about unbounded data structures and concurrent processes. To make such logics more useful in verification this paper extends them with the ability to co ...
We consider an extension of integer linear arithmetic with a star operator that takes closure under vector addition of the set of solutions of linear arithmetic subformula. We show that the satisfiability problem for this language is in NP (and therefore N ...
We consider an extension of integer linear arithmetic with a “star” operator takes closure under vector addition of the solution set of a linear arithmetic subformula. We show that the satisfiability problem for this extended language remains in NP (and th ...
