Automatically Proving Mathematical Theorems with Evolutionary Algorithms and Proof Assistants (2016)
(arxiv.org)
Trimmed abstract: " Evolutionary algorithms, known to be flexible and versatile, have been successfully applied to handle a variety of scientific and engineering problems in numerous disciplines for also several decades... In the article, we describe in detail our first, ad-hoc attempt to [use them ...
Abstract: "Applications for TinyOS, a popular operating system for embedded systems and wireless sensor networks, are written in nesC, a C dialect prone to the same type and memory safety vulnerabilities as C. While availability and integrity are critical requirements, the distributed and concurrent...

Abstract: "Industry standard implementations of math.h claim (often without formal proof) tight bounds on floatingpoint errors. We demonstrate a novel static analysis that proves these bounds and verifies the correctness of these implementations. Our key insight is a reduction of this verification t...
Proving Flow Security of Sequential Logic via Automatically-Synthesized Relational Invariants
(cc.gatech.edu)
Abstract: "Due to the proliferation of reprogrammable hardware,
core designs built from modules drawn from a variety
of sources execute with direct access to critical system resources.
Expressing guarantees that such modules satisfy, in particular the
dynamic conditions under which they release ...
