Abstract:
The thesis is devoted to the development of formal methods for software verification. Indeed, two are among the most widespread techniques that allow to rigorously specify the possible executions of a system and check whether it contains bugs. On the one hand, the correctness of a program can be guaranteed by showing the unsatisfiability of a formula modulo a theory which usually axiomatizes the involved datatypes; on the other hand, the model checking techniques are used to certify that every possible run of the system satisfies the desired properties. The contributions of the thesis are the

Concurrent systems are getting more complex with the advent of multi-core processors and the support of concurrent programs. However, errors of concurrent systems are too subtle to detect with the traditional testing and simulation. Model checking is an effective method to verify concurrent systems by exhaustively searching the complete state space exhibited by a system. However, the main challenge for model checking is state explosion, that is the state space of a concurrent system grows exponentially in the number of components of the system.

Equivalence Checking requires that the implementation circuit should be exactly equivalent to the specification circuit (golden model). In other words, for each possible input pattern, the implementation circuit should yield the same outputs as the specification circuit. Model checking, on t

Many software systems exhibit probabilistic behaviour, either added explicitly, to improve performance or to break symmetry, or implicitly, through interaction with unreliable networks or faulty hardware. When employed in safety-critical applications, it is important to rigorously analyse the behaviour of these systems.
