Automata-Based Verification of Relational Properties of Functions over Algebraic Data Structures

Authors: Théo Losekoot, Thomas Genet, and Thomas Jensen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 260, 8th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2023)


Abstract
This paper is concerned with automatically proving properties about the input-output relation of functional programs operating over algebraic data types. Recent results show how to approximate the image of a functional program using a regular tree language. Though expressive, those techniques cannot prove properties relating the input and the output of a function, e.g., proving that the output of a function reversing a list has the same length as the input list. In this paper, we built upon those results and define a procedure to compute or over-approximate such a relation. Instead of representing the image of a function by a regular set of terms, we represent (an approximation of) the input-output relation by a regular set of tuples of terms. Regular languages of tuples of terms are recognized using a tree automaton recognizing convolutions of terms, where a convolution transforms a tuple of terms into a term built on tuples of symbols. Both the program and the properties are transformed into predicates and Constrained Horn clauses (CHCs). Then, using an Implication Counter Example procedure (ICE), we infer a model of the clauses, associating to each predicate a regular relation. In this ICE procedure, checking if a given model satisfies the clauses is undecidable in general. We overcome undecidability by proposing an incomplete but sound inference procedure for such relational regular properties. Though the procedure is incomplete, its implementation performs well on 120 examples. It efficiently proves non-trivial relational properties or finds counter-examples.

An Updated Survey of Bidding Games on Graphs (Invited Talk)

Authors: Guy Avni and Thomas A. Henzinger

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 241, 47th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2022)


Abstract
A graph game is a two-player zero-sum game in which the players move a token throughout a graph to produce an infinite path, which determines the winner or payoff of the game. In bidding games, both players have budgets, and in each turn, we hold an "auction" (bidding) to determine which player moves the token. In this survey, we consider several bidding mechanisms and their effect on the properties of the game. Specifically, bidding games, and in particular bidding games of infinite duration, have an intriguing equivalence with random-turn games in which in each turn, the player who moves is chosen randomly. We summarize how minor changes in the bidding mechanism lead to unexpected differences in the equivalence with random-turn games.

Randomization as Mitigation of Directed Timing Inference Based Attacks on Time-Triggered Real-Time Systems with Task Replication

Authors: Kristin Krüger, Nils Vreman, Richard Pates, Martina Maggio, Marcus Völp, and Gerhard Fohler

Published in: LITES, Volume 7, Issue 1 (2021): Special Issue on Embedded System Security. Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, Volume 7, Issue 1


Abstract
Time-triggered real-time systems achieve deterministic behavior using schedules that are constructed offline, based on scheduling constraints. Their deterministic behavior makes time-triggered systems suitable for usage in safety-critical environments, like avionics. However, this determinism also allows attackers to fine-tune attacks that can be carried out after studying the behavior of the system through side channels, targeting safety-critical victim tasks. Replication -- i.e., the execution of task variants across different cores -- is inherently able to tolerate both accidental and malicious faults (i.e. attacks) as long as these faults are independent of one another. Yet, targeted attacks on the timing behavior of tasks which utilize information gained about the system behavior violate the fault independence assumption fault tolerance is based on. This violation may give attackers the opportunity to compromise all replicas simultaneously, in particular if they can mount the attack from already compromised components. In this paper, we analyze vulnerabilities of time-triggered systems, focusing on safety-certified multicore real-time systems. We introduce two runtime mitigation strategies to withstand directed timing inference based attacks: (i) schedule randomization at slot level, and (ii) randomization within a set of offline constructed schedules. We evaluate these mitigation strategies with synthetic experiments and a real case study to show their effectiveness and practicality.

Leveraging relational autocorrelation with latent group models

Authors: Jennifer Neville and David Jensen

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 5051, Probabilistic, Logical and Relational Learning - Towards a Synthesis (2006)


Abstract
The presence of autocorrelation provides strong motivation for using relational techniques for learning and inference. Autocorrelation is a statistical dependency between the values of the same variable on related entities and is a nearly ubiquitous characteristic of relational data sets. Recent research has explored the use of collective inference techniques to exploit this phenomenon. These techniques achieve significant performance gains by modeling observed correlations among class labels of related instances, but the models fail to capture a frequent cause of autocorrelation---the presence of underlying groups that influence the attributes on a set of entities. We propose a latent group model (LGM) for relational data, which discovers and exploits the hidden structures responsible for the observed autocorrelation among class labels. Modeling the latent group structure improves model performance, increases inference efficiency, and enhances our understanding of the datasets. We evaluate performance on three relational classification tasks and show that LGM outperforms models that ignore latent group structure when there is little known information with which to seed inference.
