Larch: Languages and Tools for Formal Specification
Building software often seems harder than it ought to be. It takes longer than expected, the software's functionality and performance are not as wonderful as hoped, and the software is not particularly malleable or easy to maintain. It does not have to be that way. This book is about programming, and the role that formal specifications can play in making programming easier and programs better. The intended audience is practicing programmers and students in undergraduate or basic graduate courses in software engineering or formal methods. To make the book accessible to such an audience, we have not presumed that the reader has formal training in mathematics or computer science. We have, howev...
Foundations of Algebraic Specification and Formal Software Development
This book provides foundations for software specification and formal software development from the perspective of work on algebraic specification, concentrating on developing basic concepts and studying their fundamental properties. These foundations are built on a solid mathematical basis, using elements of universal algebra, category theory and logic, and this mathematical toolbox provides a convenient language for precisely formulating the concepts involved in software specification and development. Once formally defined, these notions become subject to mathematical investigation, and this interplay between mathematics and software engineering yields results that are mathematically intere...
Software Safety and Security
Recent decades have seen major advances in methods and tools for checking the safety and security of software systems. Automatic tools can now detect security flaws not only in programs of the order of a million lines of code, but also in high-level protocol descriptions. There has also been something of a breakthrough in the area of operating system verification. This book presents the lectures from the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Tools for Analysis and Verification of Software Safety and Security; a summer school held at Bayrischzell, Germany, in 2011. This Advanced Study Institute was divided into three integrated modules: Foundations of Safety and Security, Applications of Safety An...
Touch of Class
This text combines a practical, hands-on approach to programming with the introduction of sound theoretical support focused on teaching the construction of high-quality software. A major feature of the book is the use of Design by Contract.
VMCAI 2003
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation, VMCAI 2003, held in New York, NY, USA in January 2003. The 20 revised full papers presented together with five invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on static analysis, dynamic systems, abstract interpretation, model checking, security protocols, and formal methods.
Theorem Proving in Higher Order Logics
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Theorem Proving in Higher Order Logics, TPHOLs '99, held in Nice, France, in September 1999. The 20 revised full papers presented together with three invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 35 papers submitted. All current aspects of higher order theorem proving, formal verification, and specification are discussed. Among the theorem provers evaluated are COQ, HOL, Isabelle, Isabelle/ZF, and OpenMath.
Recent Trends in Data Type Specification
This book contains a strictly refereed selection of revised full papers chosen from the papers accepted for presentation during the 11th Workshop on Abstract Data Types held jointly with the 8th COMPASS Workshop in Oslo, Norway, in September 1995. The 25 research papers included were chosen from 57 pre-selected workshop presentations; also included are six invited contributions. The volume reports the progress achieved in the area of algebraic specification since the predecessor meeting held in May 1994.
