Annotation:
The project contributes to the research planned within the COST action IC0901: Rich Model Toolkit - An Infrastructure for Reliable Computer Systems, which is targeted at (1) development of a language for describing in a homogeneous way a broad range of computer systems to be verified and (2) research in the area of methods for formal verification with the goal of significantly increasing their generality, efficiency, and degree of automation. The proposed project in particular considers two aspects of the systems dealt with in the COST action IC0901 that constitute a very significant challenge for the current verification methods. Namely, the project considers development of new verification methods for computer systems with complex data structures (including dynamic data structures based on pointers) and/or with advanced features of concurrency. In the former case, the project concentrates on research on symbolic verification methods based on the theory of automata, logics, and their combinations. In the latter case, the project pursues research in the areas of model checking, static analysis, dynamic analysis as well as their suitable combinations aimed at significantly improving their capabilities for verification of modern massively concurrent systems.
