Rust is an emerging programming language that aims to prevent memory-safety bugs. However, the current design of Rust also brings side effects which may increase the risk of memory-safety issues. In particular, it employs OBRM…

Rewriting C code in Rust provides stronger memory safety, yet migrating large codebases such as the 32-million-line Linux kernel remains challenging. While rule-based translators (e.g., C2Rust) provide accurate yet largely unsafe Rust…

Despite extensive usage in high-performance, low-level systems programming applications, C is susceptible to vulnerabilities due to manual memory management and unsafe pointer operations. Rust, a modern systems programming language, offers…

JBMC is an open-source SAT- and SMT-based bounded model checking tool for verifying Java bytecode. JBMC relies on an operational model of the Java libraries, which conservatively approximates their semantics, to verify assertion violations,…

The C programming language has been foundational in building system-level software. However, its manual memory management model frequently leads to memory safety issues. In response, Rust has emerged as a memory-safe alternative. Moreover,…

Writing correct concurrent code that uses atomics under the C/C++ memory model is extremely difficult. We present C11Tester, a race detector for the C/C++ memory model that can explore executions in a larger fragment of the C/C++ memory…

The Rust programming language has garnered significant interest and use as a modern, type-safe, memory-safe, and potentially formally analyzable programming language. Our interest in Rust stems from its potential as a hardware/software…

This work introduces a new approach to building crash-safe file systems for persistent memory. We exploit the fact that Rust's typestate pattern allows compile-time enforcement of a specific order of operations. We introduce a novel…

Critical embedded systems (CES) have become ubiquitous in whether medical, automotive, or industrial. Software failures in such systems are potentially disastrous and could lead to serious consequences not only financially but also…

The C Bounded Model Checker (CBMC) demonstrates the violation of assertions in C programs, or proves safety of the assertions under a given bound. CBMC implements a bit-precise translation of an input C program, annotated with assertions…

Verification presents a major bottleneck in Integrated Circuit (IC) development, consuming nearly 70% of the total development effort. While the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) is widely used in industry to improve verification…

We propose a high-performance state-vector emulator of a gate-based quantum processors developed in the Rust programming language. It supports OpenQASM 2.0 programming language for quantum circuits specification and has a user-friendly…

Rust programming language is gaining popularity rapidly in building reliable and secure systems due to its security guarantees and outstanding performance. To provide extra functionalities, the Rust compiler introduces Rust unstable…

The safety of cyber-physical systems rests on the correctness of their monitoring mechanisms. This is problematic if the specification of the monitor is implemented manually or interpreted by unreliable software. We present a verifying…

In the past years, a number of static application security testing tools have been proposed which make use of so-called code property graphs, a graph model which keeps rich information about the source code while enabling its user to write…

We present Aeneas, a new verification toolchain for Rust programs based on a lightweight functional translation. We leverage Rust's rich region-based type system to eliminate memory reasoning for many Rust programs, as long as they do not…

We present a framework for efficient stateless model checking (SMC) of concurrent programs under five prominent models of causal consistency, CCv,CM,CC, Read Committed and Read Atomic. Our approach is based on exploring traces under the…

Since the advent of parallel algorithms in the C++17 Standard Template Library (STL), the STL has become a viable framework for creating performance-portable applications. Given multiple existing implementations of the parallel algorithms,…

Unit testing is crucial in software engineering for ensuring quality. However, it's not widely used in parallel and high-performance computing software, particularly scientific applications, due to their smaller, diverse user base and…

We present a methodology for formal verification of arithmetic RTL designs that combines sequential logic equivalence checking with interactive theorem proving. An intermediate model of a Verilog module is hand-coded in Restricted…
