Operational Semantics and Verification of Security Protocols

Operational Semantics and Verification of Security Protocols

Security protocols are widely used to ensure secure communications over insecure networks, such as the internet or airwaves. These protocols use strong cryptography to prevent intruders from reading or modifying the messages. However, using cryptography is not enough to ensure their correctness. Combined with their typical small size, which suggests that one could easily assess their correctness, this often results in incorrectly designed protocols. The authors present a methodology for formally describing security protocols and their environment. This methodology includes a model for describing protocols, their execution model, and the intruder model. The models are extended with a number o...

Ten Years of Concurrency Semantics

This collection of reprints describes a unified treatment of semantics, covering a wide range of notions in parallel languages. Included are several foundational and introductory papers developing the methodology of metric semantics, studies on the comparative semantics of parallel object-oriented and logic programming, and papers on full abstraction and transition system specifications. In addition, links with process algebra and the theory of domain equations are established. Throughout, a uniform proof technique is used to relate operational and denotational models. The approach is flexible in that both linear time, branching time (or bisimulation) and intermediate models can be handled, as well as schematic and interpreted elementary actions. The reprints are preceded by an extensive introduction surveying related work on metric semantics.

Computability and Complexity

  • Type: Book

  • Published: 1997

  • Publisher: MIT Press

Computability and complexity theory should be of central concern to practitioners as well as theorists. Unfortunately, however, the field is known for its impenetrability. Neil Jones's goal as an educator and author is to build a bridge between computability and complexity theory and other areas of computer science, especially programming. In a shift away from the Turing machine- and G�del number-oriented classical approaches, Jones uses concepts familiar from programming languages to make computability and complexity more accessible to computer scientists and more applicable to practical programming problems. According to Jones, the fields of computability and complexity theory, as well a...

NASA Formal Methods

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 12th International Symposium on NASA Formal Methods, NFM 2020, held in Moffett Field, CA, USA, in May 2020.* The 20 full and 5 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 62 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: learning and formal synthesis; formal methods for DNNs; high assurance systems; requirement specification and testing; validation and solvers; solvers and program analysis; verification and times systems; autonomy and other applications; and hybrid and cyber-physical systems. *The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 11th International Symposium on NASA Formal Methods, NFM 2019, held in Houston, TX, USA, in May 2019. The 20 full and 8 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 102 submissions. The papers focus on formal verification, including theorem proving, model checking, and static analysis; advances in automated theorem proving including SAT and SMT solving; use of formal methods in software and system testing; run-time verification; techniques and algorithms for scaling formal methods, such as abstraction and symbolic methods, compositional techniques, as well as parallel and/or distributed techniques; code generation from formally verified models; safety cases and system safety; formal approaches to fault tolerance; theoretical advances and empirical evaluations of formal methods techniques for safety-critical systems, including hybrid and embedded systems; formal methods in systems engineering and model-based development; correct-by-design controller synthesis; formal assurance methods to handle adaptive systems.

Runtime Verification

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Runtime Verification, RV 2019, held in Porto, Portugal, in October 2019. The 25 regular papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 38 submissions. The RV conference is concerned with all aspects of monitoring and analysis of hardware, software and more general system executions. Runtime verification techniques are lightweight techniques to assess system correctness, reliability, and robustness; these techniques are significantly more powerful and versatile than conventional testing, and more practical than exhaustive formal verification. Chapter “Assumption-Based Runtime Verification with Partial Observability and Resets” and chapter “NuRV: a nuXmv Extension for Runtime Verification“ are available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

th FM 2009, the 16 International Symposium on Formal Methods, marked the 10th an- versary of the First World Congress on Formal Methods that was held in 1999 in Toulouse, France. We wished to celebrate this by advertising and organizing FM 2009 as the Second World Congress in the FM series, aiming to once again bring together the formal methods communities from all over the world. The statistics displayed in the table on the next page include the number of countries represented by the Programme Committee members, as well as of the authors of submitted and accepted papers. Novel this year was a special track on tools and industrial applications. Subm- sions of papers on these topics were especially encouraged, but not given any special treatment. (It was just as hard to get a special track paper accepted as any other paper.) What we did promote, however, was a discussion of how originality, contri- tion, and soundness should be judged for these papers. The following questions were used by our Programme Committee.

PARLE '89 - Parallel Architectures and Languages Europe

Since the first PARLE conference, PARLE '87, attracted more than 300 participants, it was considered a useful and successful forum and encouraged the organization of this second issue known as PARLE '89. The initiative for these conferences was taken by project 415 of ESPRIT (the European Strategic Programme for Research and Development in Information Technology of the Commission of the European Communities). Their scope covers central themes in the area of parallel architectures and languages, including such topics as concurrent, object-oriented, logic and functional programming; MIMD, dataflow, inference and reduction machines; design and verification of parallel systems; VLSI, WSI and RIS...
