Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Search structures support the fundamental data storage primitives on key-value pairs: insert a pair, delete by key, search by key, and update the value associated with a key. Concurrent search structures are parallel algorithms to speed access to search structures on multicore and distributed servers. These sophisticated algorithms perform fine-grained synchronization between threads, making them notoriously difficult to design correctly. Indeed, bugs have been found both in actual implementations and in the designs proposed by experts in peer-reviewed publications. The rapid development and deployment of these concurrent algorithms has resulted in a rift between the algorithms that can be verified by the state-of-the-art techniques and those being developed and used today. The goal of this book is to show how to bridge this gap in order to bring the certified safety of formal verification to high-performance concurrent search structures. Similar techniques and frameworks can be applied to concurrent graph and network algorithms beyond search structures.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decades, distributed software became an integral part of our society, being used in various domains like online banking or shopping, distance learning, supply chain, and telecommuting. Developing correct and efficient distributed systems is a major and timely challenge. The objective of this dissertation is to propose algorithmic techniques for improving the reliability of such software, focusing on applications ran on top of distributed storage systems like databases and blockchain. Databases allow applications to access data concurrently from multiple sites in a network. Blockchain is a cryptographically-secure distributed ledger that allows to perform irreversible actions between different parties without a trusted authority. The effect of a set of database transactions executing in parallel is specified using a formalism called consistency model. For instance, serializability states that a set of transactions behave as if they were executed serially one after another even if they actually overlap in time. Although simple to understand, serializability carries a significant penalty on performance and modern databases implement weaker consistency models. In general, these weak models are more complex to reason about. In this dissertation, we investigate the problem of checking a property of applications called robustness. Given two comparable consistency models, an application is called robust if it has the same behaviors when ran on top of databases implementing these two models. This dissertation investigates the theoretical complexity of checking robustness in the context of several consistency models: causal consistency, prefix consistency, snapshot isolation, and serializability. It provides non-trivial reductions to a well-studied problem in formal verification, assertion checking, that enables the reuse of existing verification technology. Besides theoretical results, it proposes pragmatic approaches based on under/over-approximations that are evaluated on practical applications. Applications ran on top of blockchain are deployed in the form of smart contracts that manipulate the blockchain state. Smart contracts are mainly used to govern trading in cryptoassets that are worth billions of US dollars, and bugs can lead to huge financial losses. Exacerbating the impact of these bugs is the fact that smart contracts cannot be modified once they are deployed on the blockchain. Applying techniques from formal verification to audit smart contracts can help in avoiding expensive bugs. However, since most smart contracts are not annotated with formal specifications, formal verification of functional properties is impeded. To overcome this problem, this dissertation investigates notions of refinement between smart contracts, which enable the re-use of verified contracts as specifications for other contracts, thus scaling up the overall verification effort.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distributed systems provide the backbone for modern computer systems,from cloud computing to air-traffic control. These complex systems execute concurrently in unreliable environments and are expected to tolerate various faults. Such environments are notoriously difficult to adequately model with testing, but because of the critical importance of these systems, it is essential that they are correct. It thus makes sense to turn to more rigorous methods of ensuring correctness, such as formal verification. Applying formal methods is not a panacea, however, due to the complexity of the systems involved. It is not uncommon, e.g., for a distributed file system to coordinate thousands of machines using a combination of several different protocols to ensure consistency, fault tolerance, and high performance. Verifying such a system requires breaking the problem down into individually verifiable parts, and leveraging automation whenever possible. This dissertation describes programming languages techniques forverifying distributed systems compositionally and automatically. First, we present Verdi, a framework for verifying distributed systems that reasons about fault tolerance mechanisms as transformers between fault models. Second, we detail DiSeL, a concurrent separation logic for distributed systems whose key insight is to treat the network as analogous to the heap in sequential programming. Finally, we report on mypyvy, a domain-specific language for symbolic transition systems in first-order logic, which supports a variety of automated reasoning tools to analyze systems.

Download or read book High-Level Verification written by Sudipta Kundu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-05-18 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the growing size and heterogeneity of Systems on Chip (SOC), the design process from initial specification to chip fabrication has become increasingly complex. This growing complexity provides incentive for designers to use high-level languages such as C, SystemC, and SystemVerilog for system-level design. While a major goal of these high-level languages is to enable verification at a higher level of abstraction, allowing early exploration of system-level designs, the focus so far for validation purposes has been on traditional testing techniques such as random testing and scenario-based testing. This book focuses on high-level verification, presenting a design methodology that relies upon advances in synthesis techniques as well as on incremental refinement of the design process. These refinements can be done manually or through elaboration tools. This book discusses verification of specific properties in designs written using high-level languages, as well as checking that the refined implementations are equivalent to their high-level specifications. The novelty of each of these techniques is that they use a combination of formal techniques to do scalable verification of system designs completely automatically. The verification techniques presented in this book include methods for verifying properties of high-level designs and methods for verifying that the translation from high-level design to a low-level Register Transfer Language (RTL) design preserves semantics. Used together, these techniques guarantee that properties verified in the high-level design are preserved through the translation to low-level RTL.

This book was released on 1996-01-24 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is a revised version of the author's Ph.D. thesis, submitted to the University of Liège, Belgium, with Pierre Wolper as thesis advisor. The general pattern of this work, is to turn logical and semantic ideas into exploitable algorithms. Thus, it perfectly fits the modern trend, viewing verification as a computer-aided activity, and as algorithmic as possible, not as a paper and pencil one, dealing exclusively with semantic and logical issues. Patrice Godefroid uses state-space exploration as the key technique, which, as such or elaborated into model checking, is attracting growing attention for the verification of concurrent systems. For most realistic examples, the methods presented provide a significant reduction of memory and time requirements for protocol verification.

This book was released on 1990-04-25 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stepwise refinement method postulates a system construction route that starts with a high-level specification, goes through a number of provably correct development steps, and ends with an executable program. The contributions to this volume survey the state of the art in this extremely active research area. The world's leading specialists in concurrent program specification, verification, and the theory of their refinement present latest research results and surveys of the fields. State-based, algebraic, temporal logic oriented and category theory oriented approaches are presented. Special attention is paid to the relationship between compositionality and refinement for distributed programs. Surveys are given of results on refinement in partial-order based approaches to concurrency. A unified treatment is given of the assumption/commitment paradigm in compositional concurrent program specification and verification, and the extension of these to liveness properties. Latest results are presented on specifying and proving concurrent data bases correct, and deriving network protocols from their specifications.

This book was released on 2015-09-30 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the classic model checking problem is to decide whether a finite system satisfies a specification, the goal of parameterized model checking is to decide, given finite systems ??(n) parameterized by n ∈ N, whether, for all n ∈ N, the system ??(n) satisfies a specification. In this book we consider the important case of ??(n) being a concurrent system, where the number of replicated processes depends on the parameter n but each process is independent of n. Examples are cache coherence protocols, networks of finite-state agents, and systems that solve mutual exclusion or scheduling problems. Further examples are abstractions of systems, where the processes of the original systems actually depend on the parameter.
