1. 詹乃军(ISCAS): Formal Verification of SDEs
Abstract
Probabilistic and stochastic behaviors are omnipresent in computer controlled systems, in particular, so-called safety-critical cyber-physical systems, because of fundamental properties of nature, uncertain environments, or simplifications to overcome complexity. Tightly intertwining discrete, continuous and stochastic dynamics complicates modeling, analysis and verification of stochastic hybrid systems. In the literature, this issue has been extensively investigated, but unfortunately, still remains challenging due to the difficulty of stochastic differential equations (SDEs). Most existing approaches are either not scalable, or not efficient, or not reliable because of poor precision. In this talk, we propose a promising solution to this challenge by showing that the reachability problems of SDEs can be reduced to the initial-boundary value problems of a family of partial differential equations (PDEs), called advection-diffusion equations (ADEs), which can be well solved by well-developed solvers for ADEs. Compared with existing approaches, the advantages of our method is threefold: the first is its scalability, as it can be applied to any SDE; the second is its reliability, as the user can predefine the tolerance of error, and our approach can give a reliable answer to a verification problem w.r.t. the error; the third is its efficiency, e.g., SDEs with high dimension are still doable. A prototypical implementation and some case studies are provided.

2. 佘志坤(BUAA): Under Approximating Backward Reachable Sets by Polytopes
Abstract
Under-approximations are useful for falsification of safety properties for nonlinear (hybrid) systems by finding counter-examples. Polytopic under-approximations enable analysis of these properties using reasoning in the theory of linear arithmetic. Given a nonlinear system, a target region of the simply connected compact type and a time duration, we in this paper propose a method using boundary analysis to compute an under-approximation of the backward reachable set. The under-approximation is represented as a polytope.The polytope can be computed by solving linear program problems. We test our method on several examples and compare them with existing methods. The results show that our method is highly promising in under-approximating reachable sets. Furthermore, we explore some directions to improve the scalability of our method.

3. 贺飞(THU): Learning based Assume Guarantee Regression Verification
Abstract
Due to enormous resource consumption, model checking each revision of evolving systems repeatedly is impractical. To reduce cost in checking every revision, contextual assumptions are reused from assume-guarantee reasoning. However, contextual assumptions are not always reusable. We propose a fine-grained learning technique to maximize the reuse of contextual assumptions. Based on fine-grained learning, we develop a regressional assume-guarantee verification approach for evolving systems. We have implemented a prototype of our approach and conducted extensive experiments (with 1018 verification tasks). The results suggest promising outlooks for our incremental technique.

4. 陈振邦(NUDT): Symbolic Verification of MPI Programs
Abstract
Message Passing Interface (MPI) is the standard paradigm of programming in high performance computing. Due to their high parallelism, MPI programs are difficult to write and error-prone. Analyzing MPI programs is also challenging because of non-determinism caused by program inputs and non-deterministic operations. Existing approaches for analyzing MPI programs either do not handle inputs or fail to support non-determinism for the mixed blocking and non-blocking mechanism. We present MPISE, the first symbolic execution based technique for verifying MPI programs that have both blocking and non-blocking operations. To ensure its soundness, we propose a lazy matching algorithm to safely handle non-deterministic operations. To improve its scalability, we employ model checking to guide path exploration and prune redundant paths during symbolic execution. We have implemented MPISE based on Cloud9 and PAT, and evaluated it on the verification of deadlock freedom for real-world MPI programs. Our experimental results are promising and demonstrate MPISE's effectiveness and efficiency.

5. 秦胜潮(Teeside): Reasoning about Fences and Relaxed Atomics
Abstract
For efficiency reasons, weak (or relaxed) memory is now the norm on modern architectures. To cater for this trend, modern programming languages are adapting their memory models. The new C11 memory model allows several levels of memory weakening, including non-atomics, relaxed atomics, release-acquire atomics, and sequentially consistent atomics. Under such weak memory models, multithreaded programs exhibit more behaviours, some of which would have been inconsistent under the traditional strong (i.e. sequentially consistent) memory model. This makes the task of reasoning about concurrent programs even more challenging. The GPS framework, recently developed by Turon et al., has made a step forward towards tackling this challenge. By integrating ghost states, per-location protocols and separation logic, GPS can successfully verify programs with release-acquire atomics. In this paper, we present a program logic, an enhancement of the GPS framework, that can support the verification of a bigger class of C11 programs, that is, programs with release-acquire atomics, relaxed atomics and release-acquire fences. Key elements of our proposed logic include two new types of assertions, a more expressive resource model and a set of newly-designed verification rules.

7. 田聪(XDU): Model Checking via Dynamic Program Execution
Abstract
This talk presents a unified model checking approach where the program to be verified is written in a Modeling, Simulation and Verification Language (MSVL) program M and the desired property is specified with a Propositional Projection Temporal Logic (PPTL) formula P. Different from the traditional model checking approach, the negation of the desired property, is translated into an MSVL program M' first. Then whether M violates P can be checked by evaluating whether there exists a feasible execution of the new MSVL program (M and M'). This problem can be efficiently conducted with the compiler of MSVL namely MSV. The proposed approach has been implemented in a tool called UMC4MSVL which is capable in verifying real-world programs.

9. 卜磊(NJU): Systematically Debugging IoT Control System Correctness for Home Automation
Abstract
Advances and standards in Internet of Things (IoT) have simplified the realization of home automation. However, non-expert IoT users still lack tools that can help them to ensure the underlying control system correctness: user- programmable logics match the user intention. In fact, non- expert IoT users lack the necessary know-how of domain experts. This talk presents our experience in running a building automation service based on the Salus framework. Complementing efforts that simply verify the IoT control system correctness, Salus takes novel steps to tackle practical challenges in automated debugging of identified policy violations, for non-expert IoT users. First, Salus leverages formal methods to localize faulty user-programmable logics. Second, to debug these identified faults, Salus selectively transforms the control system logics into a set of parameterized equations, which can then be solved by popular model checking tools.

11. 孙军(SUTD): Verification of Complex Systems Probabilistically through Learning Abstraction and Refinement
Abstract
Precisely modeling complex systems like cyber-physical systems is often challenging, which may render model-based system verification techniques like model checking infeasible. To overcome this challenge, we propose a method called LAR to ‘verify’ such complex systems through a combination of learning, abstraction and refinement. Instead of starting with system modeling, our method takes a set of concrete system traces as input. The output is either a counterexample with a bounded probability of being a spurious counterexample, or a probabilistic model based on which the given property is ‘verified’. The model could be viewed as a proof obligation, i.e., the property is verified if the model is correct. It can also be used for subsequent system analysis activities like runtime monitoring. Our method has been implemented as a self-contained software toolkit. The evaluation results on multiple benchmark systems as well as a real-world water purification system show promising results.

12. 陈立前(NUDT): 面向中断驱动型嵌入式软件的数值静态分析
Abstract
Interrupts are a commonly used facility that introduces concurrency in embedded software. Meanwhile, embedded software often involves intensive numerical computations that have the potential to cause numerical run-time errors, and thus the technique of numerical static analysis holds a prominent position in checking the correctness of embedded software. However, few existing numerical static analysis methods consider interrupts. In this talk, we will present a numerical static analysis approach specifically for Interrupt-Driven Programs (IDPs). The main idea is to first sequentialize IDPs by a semantic sound program transformation and then to analyze the resulted sequential programs by numerical abstract interpretation enriched with newly designed abstract domains specific to the features of IDPs. Finally, we will show our experimental results conducted on a selection of benchmarks and real-world programs.
