Language models (LMs) are often expected to generate strings in some formal language; for example, structured data, API calls, or code snippets. Although LMs can be tuned to improve their adherence to formal syntax, this does not guarantee…

The Java Stream API aims at increasing developer productivity thanks to an easy-to-read declarative syntax to express computations. It also simplifies parallel computing, providing a high-level abstraction on top of common parallelization…

In the context of the model-driven development of data-centric applications, OCL constraints play a major role in adding precision to the source models (e.g., data models and security models). Several code-generators have been proposed to…

This paper presents a focused literature survey on the use of large language models (LLM) to assist in writing formal specifications for software. A summary of thirty-five key papers is presented, including examples for specifying programs…

AutomationML (AML) enables standardized data exchange in engineering, yet existing recommendations for proper AML modeling are typically formulated as informal and textual constraints. These constraints cannot be validated automatically…

Increasing complexity of modern enterprise systems and the demand for automation and interoperability require consistent and semantically validated models in Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). The Object Constraint Language (OCL)…

A unit test is a method for verifying the accuracy and the proper functioning of a portion of a program. This work consists to study the relation and the approaches to test Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) programs and to propose a…

The different activities related to debugging such as program instrumentation, representation of execution trace and analysis of trace are not typically performed in an unified framework. We propose \textit{BOLD}, an Ontology-based Log…

Since the advent of LISP, the fifth generation programming language has developed for decades. However, compared with the fourth generation programming language, the fifth generation programming language has not been widely used because of…

Software applications integrate more and more open-source software (OSS) to benefit from code reuse. As a drawback, each vulnerability discovered in bundled OSS potentially affects the application. Upon the disclosure of every new…

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a widely used general purpose modeling language. Together with the Object Constraint Language (OCL), formal models can be described by defining the structure and behavior with UML and additional OCL…

Grammar convergence is a method that helps discovering relationships between different grammars of the same language or different language versions. The key element of the method is the operational, transformation-based representation of…

Even competent programmers make mistakes. Automatic verification can detect errors, but leaves the frustrating task of finding the erroneous line of code to the user. This paper presents an automatic approach for identifying potential error…

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to generate requirements specifications, design documents, code, and test cases. In contrast, much less attention has been given to a more difficult assurance problem: statically verifying…

Deductive verification of software has not yet found its way into industry, as complexity and scalability issues require highly specialized experts. The long-term perspective is, however, to develop verification tools aiding industrial…

Java projects are often built on top of various third-party libraries. If multiple versions of a library exist on the classpath, JVM will only load one version and shadow the others, which we refer to as dependency conflicts. This would…

{log} (read 'setlog') was born as a Constraint Logic Programming (CLP) language where sets and binary relations are first-class citizens, thus fostering set programming. Internally, {log} is a constraint satisfiability solver implementing…

The Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL) is a formal language for validating RDF graphs against a set of conditions. Following this idea and implementing a subset of the language, the Metadata Quality Assessment Framework provides Shacl4Bib:…

The rise of instruction-tuned Large Language Models (LLMs) marks a significant advancement in artificial intelligence (AI) (tailored to respond to specific prompts). Despite their popularity, applying such models to debug security…

The CountDownLatch (CDL) is a versatile concurrency mechanism that was first introduced in Java 5, and is also being adopted into C++ and C#. Its usage allows one or more threads to exchange resources and synchronize by waiting for some…
