Secure compilation is a discipline aimed at developing compilers that preserve the security
properties of the source programs they take as input in the target programs they produce as …

This paper reports on the development of Compositional CompCert, the first verified
separate compiler for C. Specifying and proving separate compilation for C is made …

Good programming languages provide helpful abstractions for writing secure code, but the
security properties of the source language are generally not preserved when compiling a …

Designing efficient, application-specialized hardware accelerators requires assessing trade-
offs between a hardware module's performance and resource requirements. To facilitate …

A fully abstract compiler prevents security features of the source language from being
bypassed by an attacker operating at the target language level. Unfortunately, developing …

Prior work on multi-language program verification has achieved impressive results,
including the compositional verification of complex compilers. But the existing approaches to …

A fully abstract compiler guarantees that two source components are observationally
equivalent in the source language if and only if their translations are observationally …

Compiler correctness is an old problem, with results stretching back beyond the last half-
century. Founding the field, John McCarthy and James Painter set out to build a" completely …

There has been great progress in recent years on developing effective techniques for
reasoning about program equivalence in ML-like languages---that is, languages that …

Existing verified compilers are proved correct under a closed-world assumption, ie, that the
compiler will only be used to compile whole programs. We present a new methodology for …
