text: We present ABC, a software tool for automatically computing symbolic upper
bounds on the number of iterations of nested program loops. The system combines
static analysis of programs with symbolic summation techniques to derive loop
invariant relations between program variables. Iteration bounds are obtained from
the inferred invariants, by replacing variables with bounds on their greatest
values. We have successfully applied ABC to a large number of examples. The derived
symbolic bounds express non-trivial polynomial relations over loop variables.
We also report on results to automatically infer symbolic expressions over harmonic
numbers as upper bounds on loop iteration counts.

text: 'Streaming string transducers [1] define (partial) functions from input strings
to output strings. A streaming string transducer makes a single pass through the
input string and uses a finite set of variables that range over strings from the
output alphabet. At every step, the transducer processes an input symbol, and
updates all the variables in parallel using assignments whose right-hand-sides
are concatenations of output symbols and variables with the restriction that a
variable can be used at most once in a right-hand-side expression. It has been
shown that streaming string transducers operating on strings over infinite data
domains are of interest in algorithmic verification of list-processing programs,
as they lead to PSPACE decision procedures for checking pre/post conditions and
for checking semantic equivalence, for a well-defined class of heap-manipulating
programs. In order to understand the theoretical expressiveness of streaming transducers,
we focus on streaming transducers processing strings over finite alphabets, given
the existence of a robust and well-studied class of "regular" transductions
for this case. Such regular transductions can be defined either by two-way deterministic
finite-state transducers, or using a logical MSO-based characterization. Our main
result is that the expressiveness of streaming string transducers coincides exactly
with this class of regular transductions. '

text: Any programming error that can be revealed before compiling a program saves
precious time for the programmer. While integrated development environments already
do a good job by detecting, e.g., data-flow abnormalities, current static analysis
tools suffer from false positives ("noise") or require strong user interaction.
We propose to avoid this deficiency by defining a new class of errors. A program
fragment is doomed if its execution will inevitably fail, regardless of which
state it is started in. We use a formal verification method to identify such errors
fully automatically and, most significantly, without producing noise. We report
on experiments with a prototype tool.

text: "We present an algorithmic method for the synthesis of concurrent programs
that are optimal with respect to quantitative performance measures. The input
consists of a sequential sketch, that is, a program that does not contain synchronization
constructs, and of a parametric performance model that assigns costs to actions
such as locking, context switching, and idling. The quantitative synthesis problem
is to automatically introduce synchronization constructs into the sequential sketch
so that both correctness is guaranteed and worst-case (or average-case) performance
is optimized. Correctness is formalized as race freedom or linearizability.\r\n\r\nWe
show that for worst-case performance, the problem can be modeled\r\nas a 2-player
graph game with quantitative (limit-average) objectives, and\r\nfor average-case
performance, as a 2 1/2 -player graph game (with probabilistic transitions). In
both cases, the optimal correct program is derived from an optimal strategy in
the corresponding quantitative game. We prove that the respective game problems
are computationally expensive (NP-complete), and present several techniques that
overcome the theoretical difficulty in cases of concurrent programs of practical
interest.\r\n\r\nWe have implemented a prototype tool and used it for the automatic
syn- thesis of programs that access a concurrent list. For certain parameter val-
ues, our method automatically synthesizes various classical synchronization schemes
for implementing a concurrent list, such as fine-grained locking or a lazy algorithm.
For other parameter values, a new, hybrid synchronization style is synthesized,
which uses both the lazy approach and coarse-grained locks (instead of standard
fine-grained locks). The trade-off occurs because while fine-grained locking tends
to decrease the cost that is due to waiting for locks, it increases cache size
requirements."

text: Boolean notions of correctness are formalized by preorders on systems. Quantitative
measures of correctness can be formalized by real-valued distance functions between
systems, where the distance between implementation and specification provides
a measure of “fit” or “desirability.” We extend the simulation preorder to the
quantitative setting, by making each player of a simulation game pay a certain
price for her choices. We use the resulting games with quantitative objectives
to define three different simulation distances. The correctness distance measures
how much the specification must be changed in order to be satisfied by the implementation.
The coverage distance measures how much the im- plementation restricts the degrees
of freedom offered by the specification. The robustness distance measures how
much a system can deviate from the implementation description without violating
the specification. We consider these distances for safety as well as liveness
specifications. The distances can be computed in polynomial time for safety specifications,
and for liveness specifications given by weak fairness constraints. We show that
the distance functions satisfy the triangle inequality, that the distance between
two systems does not increase under parallel composition with a third system,
and that the distance between two systems can be bounded from above and below
by distances between abstractions of the two systems. These properties suggest
that our simulation distances provide an appropriate basis for a quantitative
theory of discrete systems. We also demonstrate how the robustness distance can
be used to measure how many transmission errors are tolerated by error correcting
codes.

text: Concurrent data structures with fine-grained synchronization are notoriously
difficult to implement correctly. The difficulty of reasoning about these implementations
does not stem from the number of variables or the program size, but rather from
the large number of possible interleavings. These implementations are therefore
prime candidates for model checking. We introduce an algorithm for verifying linearizability
of singly-linked heap-based concurrent data structures. We consider a model consisting
of an unbounded heap where each node consists an element from an unbounded data
domain, with a restricted set of operations for testing and updating pointers
and data elements. Our main result is that linearizability is decidable for programs
that invoke a fixed number of methods, possibly in parallel. This decidable fragment
covers many of the common implementation techniques — fine-grained locking, lazy
synchronization, and lock-free synchronization. We also show how the technique
can be used to verify optimistic implementations with the help of programmer annotations.
We developed a verification tool CoLT and evaluated it on a representative sample
of Java implementations of the concurrent set data structure. The tool verified

text: The induction of a signaling pathway is characterized by transient complex
formation and mutual posttranslational modification of proteins. To faithfully
capture this combinatorial process in a math- ematical model is an important challenge
in systems biology. Exploiting the limited context on which most binding and modification
events are conditioned, attempts have been made to reduce the com- binatorial
complexity by quotienting the reachable set of molecular species, into species
aggregates while preserving the deterministic semantics of the thermodynamic limit.
Recently we proposed a quotienting that also preserves the stochastic semantics
and that is complete in the sense that the semantics of individual species can
be recovered from the aggregate semantics. In this paper we prove that this quotienting
yields a sufficient condition for weak lumpability and that it gives rise to a
backward Markov bisimulation between the original and aggregated transition system.
We illustrate the framework on a case study of the EGF/insulin receptor crosstalk.

text: "Background\r\n\r\nThe chemical master equation (CME) is a system of ordinary
differential equations that describes the evolution of a network of chemical reactions
as a stochastic process. Its solution yields the probability density vector of
the system at each point in time. Solving the CME numerically is in many cases
computationally expensive or even infeasible as the number of reachable states
can be very large or infinite. We introduce the sliding window method, which computes
an approximate solution of the CME by performing a sequence of local analysis
steps. In each step, only a manageable subset of states is considered, representing
a "window" into the state space. In subsequent steps, the window follows
the direction in which the probability mass moves, until the time period of interest
has elapsed. We construct the window based on a deterministic approximation of
the future behavior of the system by estimating upper and lower bounds on the
populations of the chemical species.\r\nResults\r\n\r\nIn order to show the effectiveness
of our approach, we apply it to several examples previously described in the literature.
The experimental results show that the proposed method speeds up the analysis
considerably, compared to a global analysis, while still providing high accuracy.\r\n\r\n\r\nConclusions\r\n\r\nThe
sliding window method is a novel approach to address the performance problems
of numerical algorithms for the solution of the chemical master equation. The
method efficiently approximates the probability distributions at the time points
of interest for a variety of chemically reacting systems, including systems for
which no upper bound on the population sizes of the chemical species is known
a priori."

text: We present a numerical approximation technique for the analysis of continuous-time
Markov chains that describe net- works of biochemical reactions and play an important
role in the stochastic modeling of biological systems. Our approach is based on
the construction of a stochastic hybrid model in which certain discrete random
variables of the original Markov chain are approximated by continuous deterministic
variables. We compute the solution of the stochastic hybrid model using a numerical
algorithm that discretizes time and in each step performs a mutual update of the
transient prob- ability distribution of the discrete stochastic variables and
the values of the continuous deterministic variables. We im- plemented the algorithm
and we demonstrate its usefulness and efficiency on several case studies from
systems biology.

text: We present a loop property generation method for loops iterating over multi-dimensional
arrays. When used on matrices, our method is able to infer their shapes (also
called types), such as upper-triangular, diagonal, etc. To gen- erate loop properties,
we first transform a nested loop iterating over a multi- dimensional array into
an equivalent collection of unnested loops. Then, we in- fer quantified loop invariants
for each unnested loop using a generalization of a recurrence-based invariant
generation technique. These loop invariants give us conditions on matrices from
which we can derive matrix types automatically us- ing theorem provers. Invariant
generation is implemented in the software package Aligator and types are derived
by theorem provers and SMT solvers, including Vampire and Z3. When run on the
Java matrix package JAMA, our tool was able to infer automatically all matrix
types describing the matrix shapes guaranteed by JAMA’s API.

text: 'Classical formalizations of systems and properties are boolean: given a system
and a property, the property is either true or false of the system. Correspondingly,
classical methods for system analysis determine the truth value of a property,
preferably giving a proof if the property is true, and a counterexample if the
property is false; classical methods for system synthesis construct a system for
which a property is true; classical methods for system transformation, composition,
and abstraction aim to preserve the truth of properties. The boolean view is prevalent
even if the system, the property, or both refer to numerical quantities, such
as the times or probabilities of events. For example, a timed automaton either
satisfies or violates a formula of a real-time logic; a stochastic process either
satisfies or violates a formula of a probabilistic logic. The classical black-and-white
view partitions the world into "correct" and "incorrect" systems, offering few
nuances. In reality, of several systems that satisfy a property in the boolean
sense, often some are more desirable than others, and of the many systems that
violate a property, usually some are less objectionable than others. For instance,
among the systems that satisfy the response property that every request be granted,
we may prefer systems that grant requests quickly (the quicker, the better), or
we may prefer systems that issue few unnecessary grants (the fewer, the better);
and among the systems that violate the response property, we may prefer systems
that serve many initial requests (the more, the better), or we may prefer systems
that serve many requests in the long run (the greater the fraction of served to
unserved requests, the better). Formally, while a boolean notion of correctness
is given by a preorder on systems and properties, a quantitative notion of correctness
is defined by a directed metric on systems and properties, where the distance
between a system and a property provides a measure of "fit" or "desirability."
There are many ways how such distances can be defined. In a linear-time framework,
one assigns numerical values to individual behaviors before assigning values to
systems and properties, which are sets of behaviors. For example, the value of
a single behavior may be a discounted value, which is largely determined by a
prefix of the behavior, e.g., by the number of requests that are granted before
the first request that is not granted; or a limit value, which is independent
of any finite prefix. A limit value may be an average, such as the average response
time over an infinite sequence of requests and grants, or a supremum, such as
the worst-case response time. Similarly, the value of a set of behaviors may be
an extremum or an average across the values of all behaviors in the set: in this
way one can measure the worst of all possible average-case response times, or
the average of all possible worst-case response times, etc. Accordingly, the distance
between two sets of behaviors may be defined as the worst or average difference
between the values of corresponding behaviors. In summary, we propagate replacing
boolean specifications for the correctness of systems with quantitative measures
for the desirability of systems. In quantitative analysis, the aim is to compute
the distance between a system and a property (or between two systems, or two properties);
in quantitative synthesis, the objective is to construct a system that has minimal
distance from a given property. Multiple quantitative measures can be prioritized
(e.g., combined lexicographically into a single measure) or studied along the
Pareto curve. Quantitative transformations, compositions, and abstractions of
systems are useful if they allow us to bound the induced change in distance from
a property. We present some initial results in some of these directions. We also
give some potential applications, which not only generalize tradiditional correctness
concerns in the functional, timed, and probabilistic domains, but also capture
such system measures as resource use, performance, cost, reliability, and robustness.'

text: Within systems biology there is an increasing interest in the stochastic behavior
of biochemical reaction networks. An appropriate stochastic description is provided
by the chemical master equation, which represents a continuous-time Markov chain
(CTMC). The uniformization technique is an efficient method to compute probability
distributions of a CTMC if the number of states is manageable. However, the size
of a CTMC that represents a biochemical reaction network is usually far beyond
what is feasible. In this paper we present an on-the-fly variant of uniformization,
where we improve the original algorithm at the cost of a small approximation error.
By means of several examples, we show that our approach is particularly well-suited
for biochemical reaction networks.

text: This paper presents Aligators, a tool for the generation of universally quantified
array invariants. Aligators leverages recurrence solving and algebraic techniques
to carry out inductive reasoning over array content. The Aligators’ loop extraction
module allows treatment of multi-path loops by exploiting their commutativity
and serializability properties. Our experience in applying Aligators on a collection
of loops from open source software projects indicates the applicability of recurrence
and algebraic solving techniques for reasoning about arrays.

text: The importance of stochasticity within biological systems has been shown repeatedly
during the last years and has raised the need for efficient stochastic tools.
We present SABRE, a tool for stochastic analysis of biochemical reaction networks.
SABRE implements fast adaptive uniformization (FAU), a direct numerical approximation
algorithm for computing transient solutions of biochemical reaction networks.
Biochemical reactions networks represent biological systems studied at a molecular
level and these reactions can be modeled as transitions of a Markov chain. SABRE
accepts as input the formalism of guarded commands, which it interprets either
as continuous-time or as discrete-time Markov chains. Besides operating in a stochastic
mode, SABRE may also perform a deterministic analysis by directly computing a
mean-field approximation of the system under study. We illustrate the different
functionalities of SABRE by means of biological case studies.

text: 'Quantitative languages are an extension of boolean languages that assign
to each word a real number. Mean-payoff automata are finite automata with numerical
weights on transitions that assign to each infinite path the long-run average
of the transition weights. When the mode of branching of the automaton is deterministic,
nondeterministic, or alternating, the corresponding class of quantitative languages
is not robust as it is not closed under the pointwise operations of max, min,
sum, and numerical complement. Nondeterministic and alternating mean-payoff automata
are not decidable either, as the quantitative generalization of the problems of
universality and language inclusion is undecidable. We introduce a new class of
quantitative languages, defined by mean-payoff automaton expressions, which is
robust and decidable: it is closed under the four pointwise operations, and we
show that all decision problems are decidable for this class. Mean-payoff automaton
expressions subsume deterministic meanpayoff automata, and we show that they have
expressive power incomparable to nondeterministic and alternating mean-payoff
automata. We also present for the first time an algorithm to compute distance
between two quantitative languages, and in our case the quantitative languages
are given as mean-payoff automaton expressions.'

text: 'We study observation-based strategies for partially-observable Markov decision
processes (POMDPs) with parity objectives. An observation-based strategy relies
on partial information about the history of a play, namely, on the past sequence
of observations. We consider qualitative analysis problems: given a POMDP with
a parity objective, decide whether there exists an observation-based strategy
to achieve the objective with probability 1 (almost-sure winning), or with positive
probability (positive winning). Our main results are twofold. First, we present
a complete picture of the computational complexity of the qualitative analysis
problem for POMDPs with parity objectives and its subclasses: safety, reachability,
Büchi, and coBüchi objectives. We establish several upper and lower bounds that
were not known in the literature. Second, we give optimal bounds (matching upper
and lower bounds) for the memory required by pure and randomized observation-based
strategies for each class of objectives.'

text: 'We consider two-player zero-sum games on graphs. These games can be classified
on the basis of the information of the players and on the mode of interaction
between them. On the basis of information the classification is as follows: (a)
partial-observation (both players have partial view of the game); (b) one-sided
complete-observation (one player has complete observation); and (c) complete-observation
(both players have complete view of the game). On the basis of mode of interaction
we have the following classification: (a) concurrent (players interact simultaneously);
and (b) turn-based (players interact in turn). The two sources of randomness in
these games are randomness in transition function and randomness in strategies.
In general, randomized strategies are more powerful than deterministic strategies,
and randomness in transitions gives more general classes of games. We present
a complete characterization for the classes of games where randomness is not helpful
in: (a) the transition function (probabilistic transition can be simulated by
deterministic transition); and (b) strategies (pure strategies are as powerful
as randomized strategies). As consequence of our characterization we obtain new
undecidability results for these games. '

text: 'In mean-payoff games, the objective of the protagonist is to ensure that
the limit average of an infinite sequence of numeric weights is nonnegative. In
energy games, the objective is to ensure that the running sum of weights is always
nonnegative. Generalized mean-payoff and energy games replace individual weights
by tuples, and the limit average (resp. running sum) of each coordinate must be
(resp. remain) nonnegative. These games have applications in the synthesis of
resource-bounded processes with multiple resources. We prove the finite-memory
determinacy of generalized energy games and show the inter- reducibility of generalized
mean-payoff and energy games for finite-memory strategies. We also improve the
computational complexity for solving both classes of games with finite-memory
strategies: while the previously best known upper bound was EXPSPACE, and no lower
bound was known, we give an optimal coNP-complete bound. For memoryless strategies,
we show that the problem of deciding the existence of a winning strategy for the
protagonist is NP-complete.'
