Behavioral interface specification languages provide formal code-level annotations, such as
preconditions, postconditions, invariants, and assertions that allow programmers to express …

Formal methods have provided approaches for investigating software engineering
fundamentals and also have high potential to improve current practices in dependability …

When separately written programs are composed so that they may cooperate, they may
instead destructively interfere in unanticipated ways. These hazards limit the scale and …

Many state-based specification languages, including the Java Modeling Language (JML),
contain at their core specification constructs familiar to most undergraduates: eg, assertions …

This report presents initial results in the area of software testing and analysis produced as
part of the Software Engineering Impact Project. The report describes the historical …

A Science of Operations examines the history of what we now call programming, defined not
simply as computer programming, but more broadly as the definition of the steps involved in …

Computing, today more than ever before, is a multi-faceted discipline which collates several
methodologies, areas of interest, and approaches: mathematics, engineering, programming …

In this book we present a number of techniques leading to the automated generation of
checker circuits from modern hardware assertion languages. Today, verification takes over …
