08061 Abstracts Collection – Types, Logics and Semantics for State

Authors: Amal Ahmed, Nick Benton, Martin Hofmann, and Greg Morrisett


Abstract
From 3 February to 8 February 2008, the Dagstuhl Seminar 08061 ``Types, Logics and Semantics for State'' was held in the International Conference and Research Center (IBFI), Schloss Dagstuhl. During the seminar, several participants presented their current research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section describes the seminar topics and goals in general. Links to extended abstracts or full papers are provided, if available.

A Unified Framework for Verification Techniques for Object Invariants

Authors: Sophia Drossopoulou, Adrian Francalanza, P. Müller, and Alexander J. Summers


Abstract
Object invariants define the consistency of objects. They have subtle semantics, mainly because of call-backs, multi-object invariants, and subclassing. Several verification techniques for object invariants have been proposed. It is difficult to compare these techniques, and to ascertain their soundness, because of their differences in restrictions on programs and invariants, in the use of advanced type systems (e.g., ownership types), in the meaning of invariants, and in proof obligations. We develop a unified framework for such techniques. We distil seven parameters that characterise a verification technique, and identify sufficient conditions on these parameters which guarantee soundness. We instantiate our framework with three verification techniques from the literature, and use it to assess soundness and compare expressiveness.
