The following invited speakers are announced for CAV'01 :
- Xavier
Leroy (INRIA Rocquencourt - France) "Java Bytecode Verification: An
Overview"
Abstract Bytecode verification is a crucial security
component for Java applets, on the Web and on embedded devices such as
smart cards. This paper describes the main bytecode verification
algorithms and surveys the variety of formal methods that have been
applied to bytecode verification in order to establish its correctness.
- David Parnas (McMaster University - Canada) "Software
Documentation and the Verification Process"
Abstract: In the verification community it is assumed that one
has a specification of the program to be proven correct. In practice
this is never true. Moreover, specifications for realistic software
products are often unreadable when formalised. This talk will present
and discuss more practical formal notation for software documentation
and the role of such documentation in the verification process
