Abstract Development of formal proofs of correctness of programs can increase actual and
perceived reliability and facilitate better understanding of program specifications and their …

We introduce our efforts within the project 'The science of deep specification'to work out the
key formal underpinnings of industrial-scale formal specifications of software and hardware …

This paper presents a framework aimed at significantly reducing the cost of proving
functional correctness for low-level operating systems components. The framework is …

This paper establishes a connection between control theory for partially observed discrete-
event systems (DESs) and automated theorem proving (ATP) in the calculus of positively …

During my Master's degree, I never had the intention of pursuing a PhD. I valued industry
with its practical outcome higher than the, what I thought to be, purely theoretical results of …

Formal method tools are used in the initial stages of the software development cycle and
have advanced to deal with the design difficulties related to ensuring strong cybersecurity …

This thesis presents a framework aimed at significantly reducing the cost of proving
functional correctness for low-level operating systems components, designed around a new …

A secure operating system in the communication network can provide the stable working
environment, which ensures that the user information is not stolen. The micro-kernel …

This thesis invests the field of cybersecurity for small computer systems (embedded
systems/connected objects/low-end devices, of type microcontroller) and more precisely …
