Hello everyone,
I will giving a
practice SAS talk on Monday, 3:30PM in room 4310 CS. It would be
really helpful if you can attend and provide some comments.
Title: A New
Abstraction Framework for Affine Transformers
Abstract: This paper
addresses the problem of abstracting a set of affine
transformers v' = v C + d, where v and v' represent the
pre-state and post-state, respectively. We introduce a
framework to harness any base abstract domain B in an abstract
domain of affine transformations. Abstract domains are usually
used to define constraints on the variables of a program. In
this paper, however, abstract domain B is re-purposed to
constrain the elements of C and d---thereby defining a set of
affine transformers on program states. This framework
facilitates intra- and interprocedural analyses to obtain
function and loop summaries, as well as to prove program
assertions.
Thanks,
