Abstract:Traditional separation logic-based shape analyses utilize inductive summarizing predicates so as to capture general properties of the layout of data-structures, to verify accurate manipulations of, e.g., various forms of lists or trees. However, they also usually abstract away contents properties, so that they may only verify memory safety and invariance of data-structure shapes. In this paper, we introduce a novel abstract domain to describe sequences of values of unbounded size, and track constraints on thei… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
