A Separation Logic for Concurrent Randomized Programs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a concurrent separation logic with support for probabilistic reasoning. As part of our logic, we extend the idea of coupling, which underlies recent work on probabilistic relational logics, to the setting of programs with both probabilistic and non-deterministic choice. To demonstrate our logic, we verify a variant of a recent randomized concurrent counter algorithm. All of our results have been mechanized in Coq.

An Operational Semantics for Concurrent Separation Logic
The deductive veri cation of concurrent programs gained new tools with the advent of Concurrent Separation Logic (CSL). This program logic is a compositional method that combines the Owicki-Gries method with Separation Logic, allowing to reason and prove correct concurrent programs manipulating shared mutable data structure. The soundness of Concurrent Separation Logic had been established usin...
متن کاملThesis Proposal Verifying Concurrent Randomized Algorithms
Concurrency and randomization are two programming features that are notoriously difficult to use correctly. This is because programs that use them no longer behave deterministically, so programmers must take into account the set of all possible interactions and random choices that may occur. A common approach to reasoning about complex programs is to use relational or refinement reasoning: to u...
متن کاملSpecifying Concurrent Programs: a Case Study in JML and Separation Logic
This paper presents a case study for the verification of concurrent programs. A model for a central printer server was designed, implemented and annotated with a formal specification in JML, extended with syntax for permissionbased separation logic. The specification is compatible with the VerCors toolset which is currently being developed at the University of Twente. The goal of this research ...
متن کاملVariables as Resource for Shared-Memory Programs: Semantics and Soundness
Parkinson, Bornat, and Calcagno recently introduced a logic for partial correctness in which program variables are treated as resource, generalizing earlier work based on separation logic and permissions. An advantage of their approach is that it yields a logic devoid of complex side conditions: there is no need to pepper the inference rules with “modifies” clauses. They used a simple operation...
متن کاملA Semantics for Concurrent Separation Logic
We present a trace semantics for a language of parallel programs which share access to mutable data. We introduce a resource-sensitive logic for partial correctness, based on a recent proposal of O’Hearn, adapting separation logic to the concurrent setting. The logic allows proofs of parallel programs in which “ownership” of critical data, such as the right to access, update or deallocate a poi...
