This paper surveys recent work on applying analysis and transformation techniques that
originate in the field of constraint logic programming (CLP) to the problem of verifying …

Since the advent of Spectre, a number of counter-measures have been proposed and
deployed. Rigorously reasoning about their effectiveness, however, requires a well-defined …

Ethereum has emerged as the most popular smart contract platform, with hundreds of
thousands of contracts stored on the blockchain and covering diverse application scenarios …

Automatic program verification and symbolic model checking tools interface with theorem
proving technologies that check satisfiability of formulas. A theme pursued in the past years …

Extending ASP with constraints (CASP) enhances its expressiveness and performance. This
extension is not straightforward as the grounding phase, present in most ASP systems …

Both logic programming in general and Prolog in particular have a long and fascinating
history, intermingled with that of many disciplines they inherited from or catalyzed. A large …

Ethical and legal concerns make it necessary for programs that may directly influence the life
of people (via, eg, legal or health counseling) to justify in human-understandable terms the …

Many complex systems, ranging from social, industrial, economics, financial, educational, to
military, require that we obtain high-quality solutions to combinatorial problems. Linear …

We present a modular approach to automatic complexity analysis of integer programs.
Based on a novel alternation between finding symbolic time bounds for program parts and …

Energy consumption analysis of embedded programs requires the analysis of low-level
program representations. This is challenging because the gap between the high-level …
