text: "Simulation is an attractive alternative for language inclusion for automata
as it is an under-approximation of language inclusion, but usually has much lower
complexity. For non-deterministic automata, while language inclusion is PSPACE-complete,
simulation can be computed in polynomial time. Simulation has also been extended
in two orthogonal directions, namely, (1) fair simulation, for simulation over
specified set of infinite runs; and (2) quantitative simulation, for simulation
between weighted automata. Again, while fair trace inclusion is PSPACE-complete,
fair simulation can be computed in polynomial time. For weighted automata, the
(quantitative) language inclusion problem is undecidable for mean-payoff automata
and the decidability is open for discounted-sum automata, whereas the (quantitative)
simulation reduce to mean-payoff games and discounted-sum games, which admit pseudo-polynomial
time algorithms.\r\n\r\nIn this work, we study (quantitative) simulation for weighted
automata with Büchi acceptance conditions, i.e., we generalize fair simulation
from non-weighted automata to weighted automata. We show that imposing Büchi acceptance
conditions on weighted automata changes many fundamental properties of the simulation
games. For example, whereas for mean-payoff and discounted-sum games, the players
do not need memory to play optimally; we show in contrast that for simulation
games with Büchi acceptance conditions, (i) for mean-payoff objectives, optimal
strategies for both players require infinite memory in general, and (ii) for discounted-sum
objectives, optimal strategies need not exist for both players. While the simulation
games with Büchi acceptance conditions are more complicated (e.g., due to infinite-memory
requirements for mean-payoff objectives) as compared to their counterpart without
Büchi acceptance conditions, we still present pseudo-polynomial time algorithms
to solve simulation games with Büchi acceptance conditions for both weighted mean-payoff
and weighted discounted-sum automata."

text: A prominent remedy to multicore scalability issues in concurrent data structure
implementations is to relax the sequential specification of the data structure.
We present distributed queues (DQ), a new family of relaxed concurrent queue implementations.
DQs implement relaxed queues with linearizable emptiness check and either configurable
or bounded out-of-order behavior or pool behavior. Our experiments show that DQs
outperform and outscale in micro- and macrobenchmarks all strict and relaxed queue
as well as pool implementations that we considered.

text: It is often difficult to correctly implement a Boolean controller for a complex
system, especially when concurrency is involved. Yet, it may be easy to formally
specify a controller. For instance, for a pipelined processor it suffices to state
that the visible behavior of the pipelined system should be identical to a non-pipelined
reference system (Burch-Dill paradigm). We present a novel procedure to efficiently
synthesize multiple Boolean control signals from a specification given as a quantified
first-order formula (with a specific quantifier structure). Our approach uses
uninterpreted functions to abstract details of the design. We construct an unsatisfiable
SMT formula from the given specification. Then, from just one proof of unsatisfiability,
we use a variant of Craig interpolation to compute multiple coordinated interpolants
that implement the Boolean control signals. Our method avoids iterative learning
and back-substitution of the control functions. We applied our approach to synthesize
a controller for a simple two-stage pipelined processor, and present first experimental
results.

text: Choices made by nondeterministic word automata depend on both the past (the
prefix of the word read so far) and the future (the suffix yet to be read). In
several applications, most notably synthesis, the future is diverse or unknown,
leading to algorithms that are based on deterministic automata. Hoping to retain
some of the advantages of nondeterministic automata, researchers have studied
restricted classes of nondeterministic automata. Three such classes are nondeterministic
automata that are good for trees (GFT; i.e., ones that can be expanded to tree
automata accepting the derived tree languages, thus whose choices should satisfy
diverse futures), good for games (GFG; i.e., ones whose choices depend only on
the past), and determinizable by pruning (DBP; i.e., ones that embody equivalent
deterministic automata). The theoretical properties and relative merits of the
different classes are still open, having vagueness on whether they really differ
from deterministic automata. In particular, while DBP ⊆ GFG ⊆ GFT, it is not known
whether every GFT automaton is GFG and whether every GFG automaton is DBP. Also
open is the possible succinctness of GFG and GFT automata compared to deterministic
automata. We study these problems for ω-regular automata with all common acceptance
conditions. We show that GFT=GFG⊃DBP, and describe a determinization construction
for GFG automata.

text: 'There is a trade-off between performance and correctness in implementing
concurrent data structures. Better performance may be achieved at the expense
of relaxing correctness, by redefining the semantics of data structures. We address
such a redefinition of data structure semantics and present a systematic and formal
framework for obtaining new data structures by quantitatively relaxing existing
ones. We view a data structure as a sequential specification S containing all
"legal" sequences over an alphabet of method calls. Relaxing the data
structure corresponds to defining a distance from any sequence over the alphabet
to the sequential specification: the k-relaxed sequential specification contains
all sequences over the alphabet within distance k from the original specification.
In contrast to other existing work, our relaxations are semantic (distance in
terms of data structure states). As an instantiation of our framework, we present
two simple yet generic relaxation schemes, called out-of-order and stuttering
relaxation, along with several ways of computing distances. We show that the out-of-order
relaxation, when further instantiated to stacks, queues, and priority queues,
amounts to tolerating bounded out-of-order behavior, which cannot be captured
by a purely syntactic relaxation (distance in terms of sequence manipulation,
e.g. edit distance). We give concurrent implementations of relaxed data structures
and demonstrate that bounded relaxations provide the means for trading correctness
for performance in a controlled way. The relaxations are monotonic which further
highlights the trade-off: increasing k increases the number of permitted sequences,
which as we demonstrate can lead to better performance. Finally, since a relaxed
stack or queue also implements a pool, we actually have new concurrent pool implementations
that outperform the state-of-the-art ones.'

text: We propose a general framework for abstraction with respect to quantitative
properties, such as worst-case execution time, or power consumption. Our framework
provides a systematic way for counter-example guided abstraction refinement for
quantitative properties. The salient aspect of the framework is that it allows
anytime verification, that is, verification algorithms that can be stopped at
any time (for example, due to exhaustion of memory), and report approximations
that improve monotonically when the algorithms are given more time. We instantiate
the framework with a number of quantitative abstractions and refinement schemes,
which differ in terms of how much quantitative information they keep from the
original system. We introduce both state-based and trace-based quantitative abstractions,
and we describe conditions that define classes of quantitative properties for
which the abstractions provide over-approximations. We give algorithms for evaluating
the quantitative properties on the abstract systems. We present algorithms for
counter-example based refinements for quantitative properties for both state-based
and segment-based abstractions. We perform a case study on worst-case execution
time of executables to evaluate the anytime verification aspect and the quantitative
abstractions we proposed.

text: We describe new extensions of the Vampire theorem prover for computing tree
interpolants. These extensions generalize Craig interpolation in Vampire, and
can also be used to derive sequence interpolants. We evaluated our implementation
on a large number of examples over the theory of linear integer arithmetic and
integer-indexed arrays, with and without quantifiers. When compared to other methods,
our experiments show that some examples could only be solved by our implementation.

text: We show that modal logic over universally first-order definable classes of
transitive frames is decidable. More precisely, let K be an arbitrary class of
transitive Kripke frames definable by a universal first-order sentence. We show
that the global and finite global satisfiability problems of modal logic over
K are decidable in NP, regardless of choice of K. We also show that the local
satisfiability and the finite local satisfiability problems of modal logic over
K are decidable in NEXPTIME.

text: Formal verification aims to improve the quality of software by detecting errors
before they do harm. At the basis of formal verification is the logical notion
of correctness, which purports to capture whether or not a program behaves as
desired. We suggest that the boolean partition of software into correct and incorrect
programs falls short of the practical need to assess the behavior of software
in a more nuanced fashion against multiple criteria. We therefore propose to introduce
quantitative fitness measures for programs, specifically for measuring the function,
performance, and robustness of reactive programs such as concurrent processes.
This article describes the goals of the ERC Advanced Investigator Project QUAREM.
The project aims to build and evaluate a theory of quantitative fitness measures
for reactive models. Such a theory must strive to obtain quantitative generalizations
of the paradigms that have been success stories in qualitative reactive modeling,
such as compositionality, property-preserving abstraction and abstraction refinement,
model checking, and synthesis. The theory will be evaluated not only in the context
of software and hardware engineering, but also in the context of systems biology.
In particular, we will use the quantitative reactive models and fitness measures
developed in this project for testing hypotheses about the mechanisms behind data
from biological experiments.

text: "We present a shape analysis for programs that manipulate overlaid data structures
which share sets of objects. The abstract domain contains Separation Logic formulas
that (1) combine a per-object separating conjunction with a per-field separating
conjunction and (2) constrain a set of variables interpreted as sets of objects.
The definition of the abstract domain operators is based on a notion of homomorphism
between formulas, viewed as graphs, used recently to define optimal decision procedures
for fragments of the Separation Logic. Based on a Frame Rule that supports the
two versions of the separating conjunction, the analysis is able to reason in
a modular manner about non-overlaid data structures and then, compose information
only at a few program points, e.g., procedure returns. We have implemented this
analysis in a prototype tool and applied it on several interesting case studies
that manipulate overlaid and nested linked lists.\r\n"

text: 'The standard hardware design flow involves: (a) design of an integrated circuit
using a hardware description language, (b) extensive functional and formal verification,
and (c) logical synthesis. However, the above-mentioned processes consume significant
effort and time. An alternative approach is to use a formal specification language
as a high-level hardware description language and synthesize hardware from formal
specifications. Our work is a case study of the synthesis of the widely and industrially
used AMBA AHB protocol from formal specifications. Bloem et al. presented the
first formal specifications for the AMBA AHB Arbiter and synthesized the AHB Arbiter
circuit. However, in the first formal specification some important assumptions
were missing. Our contributions are as follows: (a) We present detailed formal
specifications for the AHB Arbiter incorporating the missing details, and obtain
significant improvements in the synthesis results (both with respect to the number
of gates in the synthesized circuit and with respect to the time taken to synthesize
the circuit), and (b) we present formal specifications to generate compact circuits
for the remaining two main components of AMBA AHB, namely, AHB Master and AHB
Slave. Thus with systematic description we are able to automatically and completely
synthesize an important and widely used industrial protocol.'

text: We describe the design and implementation of P, a domain-specific language
to write asynchronous event driven code. P allows the programmer to specify the
system as a collection of interacting state machines, which communicate with each
other using events. P unifies modeling and programming into one activity for the
programmer. Not only can a P program be compiled into executable code, but it
can also be tested using model checking techniques. P allows the programmer to
specify the environment, used to "close" the system during testing,
as nondeterministic ghost machines. Ghost machines are erased during compilation
to executable code; a type system ensures that the erasure is semantics preserving.
The P language is designed so that a P program can be checked for responsiveness-the
ability to handle every event in a timely manner. By default, a machine needs
to handle every event that arrives in every state. But handling every event in
every state is impractical. The language provides a notion of deferred events
where the programmer can annotate when she wants to delay processing an event.
The default safety checker looks for presence of unhan-dled events. The language
also provides default liveness checks that an event cannot be potentially deferred
forever. P was used to implement and verify the core of the USB device driver
stack that ships with Microsoft Windows 8. The resulting driver is more reliable
and performs better than its prior incarnation (which did not use P); we have
more confidence in the robustness of its design due to the language abstractions
and verification provided by P.

text: "Linearizability of concurrent data structures is usually proved by monolithic
simulation arguments relying on identifying the so-called linearization points.
Regrettably, such proofs, whether manual or automatic, are often complicated and
scale poorly to advanced non-blocking concurrency patterns, such as helping and
optimistic updates.\r\nIn response, we propose a more modular way of checking
linearizability of concurrent queue algorithms that does not involve identifying
linearization points. We reduce the task of proving linearizability with respect
to the queue specification to establishing four basic properties, each of which
can be proved independently by simpler arguments. As a demonstration of our approach,
we verify the Herlihy and Wing queue, an algorithm that is challenging to verify
by a simulation proof."

text: "Separation logic (SL) has gained widespread popularity because of its ability
to succinctly express complex invariants of a program’s heap configurations. Several
specialized provers have been developed for decidable SL fragments. However, these
provers cannot be easily extended or combined with solvers for other theories
that are important in program verification, e.g., linear arithmetic. In this paper,
we present a reduction of decidable SL fragments to a decidable first-order theory
that fits well into the satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) framework. We show
how to use this reduction to automate satisfiability, entailment, frame inference,
and abduction problems for separation logic using SMT solvers. Our approach provides
a simple method of integrating separation logic into existing verification tools
that provide SMT backends, and an elegant way of combining SL fragments with other
decidable first-order theories. We implemented this approach in a verification
tool and applied it to heap-manipulating programs whose verification involves
reasoning in theory combinations.\r\n"

text: 'Traditional formal methods are based on a Boolean satisfaction notion: a
reactive system satisfies, or not, a given specification. We generalize formal
methods to also address the quality of systems. As an adequate specification formalism
we introduce the linear temporal logic LTL[F]. The satisfaction value of an LTL[F]
formula is a number between 0 and 1, describing the quality of the satisfaction.
The logic generalizes traditional LTL by augmenting it with a (parameterized)
set F of arbitrary functions over the interval [0,1]. For example, F may contain
the maximum or minimum between the satisfaction values of subformulas, their product,
and their average. The classical decision problems in formal methods, such as
satisfiability, model checking, and synthesis, are generalized to search and optimization
problems in the quantitative setting. For example, model checking asks for the
quality in which a specification is satisfied, and synthesis returns a system
satisfying the specification with the highest quality. Reasoning about quality
gives rise to other natural questions, like the distance between specifications.
We formalize these basic questions and study them for LTL[F]. By extending the
automata-theoretic approach for LTL to a setting that takes quality into an account,
we are able to solve the above problems and show that reasoning about LTL[F] has
roughly the same complexity as reasoning about traditional LTL.'

text: We consider concurrent games played on graphs. At every round of a game, each
player simultaneously and independently selects a move; the moves jointly determine
the transition to a successor state. Two basic objectives are the safety objective
to stay forever in a given set of states, and its dual, the reachability objective
to reach a given set of states. First, we present a simple proof of the fact that
in concurrent reachability games, for all ε>0, memoryless ε-optimal strategies
exist. A memoryless strategy is independent of the history of plays, and an ε-optimal
strategy achieves the objective with probability within ε of the value of the
game. In contrast to previous proofs of this fact, our proof is more elementary
and more combinatorial. Second, we present a strategy-improvement (a.k.a. policy-iteration)
algorithm for concurrent games with reachability objectives. Finally, we present
a strategy-improvement algorithm for turn-based stochastic games (where each player
selects moves in turns) with safety objectives. Our algorithms yield sequences
of player-1 strategies which ensure probabilities of winning that converge monotonically
(from below) to the value of the game. © 2012 Elsevier Inc.

text: "Linearizability requires that the outcome of calls by competing threads to
a concurrent data structure is the same as some sequential execution where each
thread has exclusive access to the data structure. In an ordered data structure,
such as a queue or a stack, linearizability is ensured by requiring threads commit
in the order dictated by the sequential semantics of the data structure; e.g.,
in a concurrent queue implementation a dequeue can only remove the oldest element.
\r\nIn this paper, we investigate the impact of this strict ordering, by comparing
what linearizability allows to what existing implementations do. We first give
an operational definition for linearizability which allows us to build the most
general linearizable implementation as a transition system for any given sequential
specification. We then use this operational definition to categorize linearizable
implementations based on whether they are bound or free. In a bound implementation,
whenever all threads observe the same logical state, the updates to the logical
state and the temporal order of commits coincide. All existing queue implementations
we know of are bound. We then proceed to present, to the best of our knowledge,
the first ever free queue implementation. Our experiments show that free implementations
have the potential for better performance by suffering less from contention."

text: 'We consider the distributed synthesis problem for temporal logic specifications.
Traditionally, the problem has been studied for LTL, and the previous results
show that the problem is decidable iff there is no information fork in the architecture.
We consider the problem for fragments of LTL and our main results are as follows:
(1) We show that the problem is undecidable for architectures with information
forks even for the fragment of LTL with temporal operators restricted to next
and eventually. (2) For specifications restricted to globally along with non-nested
next operators, we establish decidability (in EXPSPACE) for star architectures
where the processes receive disjoint inputs, whereas we establish undecidability
for architectures containing an information fork-meet structure. (3) Finally,
we consider LTL without the next operator, and establish decidability (NEXPTIME-complete)
for all architectures for a fragment that consists of a set of safety assumptions,
and a set of guarantees where each guarantee is a safety, reachability, or liveness
condition.'
