Optimal Concolic Dynamic Partial Order Reduction

Authors: Mohammad Hossein Khoshechin Jorshari, Michalis Kokologiannakis, Rupak Majumdar, and Srinidhi Nagendra

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)


Abstract
Stateless model checking (SMC) software implementations requires exploring both concurrency- and data nondeterminism. Unfortunately, most SMC algorithms focus on efficient exploration of concurrency nondeterminism, thereby neglecting an important source of bugs. We present ConDpor, an SMC algorithm for unmodified Java programs that combines optimal dynamic partial order reduction (DPOR) for concurrency nondeterminism, with concolic execution for data nondeterminism. ConDpor is sound, complete, optimal, and parametric w.r.t. the memory consistency model. Our experiments confirm that ConDpor is exponentially faster than DPOR with small-domain enumeration. Overall, ConDpor opens the door for efficient exploration of concurrent programs with data nondeterminism.

Ensuring Convergence and Invariants Without Coordination

Authors: Dina Borrego, Nuno Preguiça, Elisa Gonzalez Boix, and Carla Ferreira

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)


Abstract
The CAP theorem demonstrates a trade-off between consistency and availability (and, by extension, latency) in systems where network partitions are unavoidable, such as in cloud computing and local-first software. While adopting weak consistency can preserve availability, it may result in inconsistencies that compromise application correctness. Replicated data types provide a principled, coordination-free approach to guarantee convergence but do not consider application invariants. Existing methods for maintaining invariants in replicated systems either rely on coordination - undermining the benefits of weak consistency - or suffer from limited applicability. This paper introduces the No-Op framework, a generic approach for enforcing consistency without coordination while guaranteeing both convergence and invariant preservation. The core idea of the No-Op approach is to resolve conflicts among concurrent operations by prioritising one operation over the other according to programmer-defined conflict resolution policies. This prioritisation transforms the less-preferred operation into a no-side-effect operation, ensuring conflict-free execution. We formalise the model underlying the No-Op framework and introduce a replication protocol built upon it, accompanied by a formal proof of correctness for both the framework and the protocol. Furthermore, we demonstrate the framework’s applicability by showcasing the design of widely used replicated data types and the preservation of a wide range of application invariants.

Wastrumentation: Portable WebAssembly Dynamic Analysis with Support for Intercession

Authors: Aäron Munsters, Angel Luis Scull Pupo, and Elisa Gonzalez Boix

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)


Abstract
Dynamic program analyses help in understanding a program’s runtime behavior and detect issues related to security, program comprehension, or profiling. Instrumentation platforms aid analysis developers by offering a high-level API to write the analysis, and inserting the analysis into the target program. However, current instrumentation platforms for WebAssembly (Wasm) restrict analysis portability because they require concrete runtime environments. Moreover, their analysis API only allows the development of analyses that observe the target program but cannot modify it. As a result, many popular dynamic analyses present for other languages, such as runtime hardening, virtual patching or runtime optimization, cannot currently be implemented for Wasm atop a dynamic analysis platform. Instead, they need to be built manually, which requires knowledge of low-level details of the Wasm’s semantics and instruction set, and how to safely manipulate it. This paper introduces Wastrumentation, the first dynamic analysis platform for WebAssembly that supports intercession. Our solution, based on source code instrumentation, weaves the analysis code directly into the target program code. Inlining the analysis into the target’s source code avoids dependencies on the runtime environment, making analyses portable across Wasm VMs. Moreover, it enables the implementation of analyses in any Wasm-compatible language. We evaluate our solution in two ways. First, we compare it against a state-of-the-art source code instrumentation platform using the WasmR3 benchmarks. The results show improved memory consumption and competitive performance overhead. Second, we develop an extensive portfolio of dynamic analyses, including novel analyses previously unattainable with source code instrumentation platforms, such as memoization, safe heap access, and the removal of NaN non-determinism.

Exact Algorithms for Minimum Dilation Triangulation

Authors: Sándor P. Fekete, Phillip Keldenich, and Michael Perk

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)


Abstract
We provide a spectrum of new theoretical insights and practical results for finding a Minimum Dilation Triangulation (MDT), a natural geometric optimization problem of considerable previous attention: Given a set P of n points in the plane, find a triangulation T, such that a shortest Euclidean path in T between any pair of points increases by the smallest possible factor compared to their straight-line distance. No polynomial-time algorithm is known for the problem; moreover, evaluating the objective function involves computing the sum of (possibly many) square roots. On the other hand, the problem is not known to be NP-hard. (1) We provide practically robust methods and implementations for computing an MDT for benchmark sets with up to 30,000 points in reasonable time on commodity hardware, based on new geometric insights into the structure of optimal edge sets. Previous methods only achieved results for up to 200 points, so we extend the range of optimally solvable instances by a factor of 150. (2) We develop scalable techniques for accurately evaluating many shortest-path queries that arise as large-scale sums of square roots, allowing us to certify exact optimal solutions, with previous work relying on (possibly inaccurate) floating-point computations. (3) We resolve an open problem by establishing a lower bound of 1.44116 on the dilation of the regular 84-gon (and thus for arbitrary point sets), improving the previous worst-case lower bound of 1.4308 and greatly reducing the remaining gap to the upper bound of 1.4482 from the literature. In the process, we provide optimal solutions for regular n-gons up to n = 100.

LoRe: A Programming Model for Verifiably Safe Local-First Software (Extended Abstract)

Authors: Julian Haas, Ragnar Mogk, Elena Yanakieva, Annette Bieniusa, and Mira Mezini

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 263, 37th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2023)


Abstract
Local-first software manages and processes private data locally while still enabling collaboration between multiple parties connected via partially unreliable networks. Such software typically involves interactions with users and the execution environment (the outside world). The unpredictability of such interactions paired with their decentralized nature make reasoning about the correctness of local-first software a challenging endeavor. Yet, existing solutions to develop local-first software do not provide support for automated safety guarantees and instead expect developers to reason about concurrent interactions in an environment with unreliable network conditions. We propose LoRe, a programming model and compiler that automatically verifies developer-supplied safety properties for local-first applications. LoRe combines the declarative data flow of reactive programming with static analysis and verification techniques to precisely determine concurrent interactions that violate safety invariants and to selectively employ strong consistency through coordination where required. We propose a formalized proof principle and demonstrate how to automate the process in a prototype implementation that outputs verified executable code. Our evaluation shows that LoRe simplifies the development of safe local-first software when compared to state-of-the-art approaches and that verification times are acceptable.
