In the context of hardware and software systems, formal verification is the act of proving or disproving the correctness of a system with respect to a certain formal specification or property, using formal methods of mathematics. [1] Formal verification is a key incentive for formal specification of systems, and is at the core of formal methods.
Tamarin is an open source tool, written in Haskell, [10] built as a successor to an older verification tool called Scyther. [11] Tamarin has automatic proof features, but can also be self-guided. [11] In Tamarin lemmas that representing security properties are defined. [12]
PRISM is a probabilistic model checker, a formal verification software tool for the modelling and analysis of systems that exhibit probabilistic behaviour. [1] PRISM was introduced around 2002 in the context of Parker's PhD work and is still under active development (as of 2024).
Revolutionizing Formal Verification Education “Essential Introduction to Practical Formal Verification” is the first-of-its-kind and affordable course that distils decades of formal verification expertise into a practical, hands-on training program. The course focuses on the use of SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA), and how it is applicable to ...
Formal verification is the use of software tools to prove properties of a formal specification, or to prove that a formal model of a system implementation satisfies its specification. Once a formal specification has been developed, the specification may be used as the basis for proving properties of the specification, and by inference ...
ISP ("In-situ Partial Order") is a tool for the formal verification of MPI programs developed within the School of Computing at the University of Utah. Like model checkers, such as SPIN, ISP verifies the complete state space of a system for a set of safety properties.
In computer science and mathematical logic, a proof assistant or interactive theorem prover is a software tool to assist with the development of formal proofs by human–machine collaboration. This involves some sort of interactive proof editor, or other interface , with which a human can guide the search for proofs, the details of which are ...
The verification covers code, design, and implementation, and the main theorem states that the C code correctly implements the formal specification of the kernel. The proof uncovered 144 bugs in an early version of the C code of the seL4 kernel, and about 150 issues in each of design and specification.
