Program Verification: Lecture 3 Jos´eMeseguer Computer Science Department University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 1 Algebras An (unsorted, many-sorted, or order-sorted) signature Σ is just syntax: provides the symbols for a language; but what is that language talking about? what is its semantics? It is obviously talking about algebras, which are the mathematical models in which we interpret the syntax of Σ, giving it concrete meaning. Unsorted algebras are the simplest example: children become familiar with them from the early awakenings of reason. They consist of a set of data elements, and various chosen constants among those elements, and operations on such data. 2 Algebras (II) For example, for Σ the unsorted signature of the module NAT-MIXFIX we can define many different algebras, such as the following: 1. IN, the algebra of natural numbers in whatever notation we wish (Peano, binary, base 10, etc.) with 0 interpreted as the zero element, s interpreted as successor, and + and * interpreted as natural number addition and multiplication. 2. INk, the algebra of residue classes modulo k, for k a nonzero natural number. This is a finite algebra whose set of elements can be represented as the set {0,...,k − 1}. We interpret 0 as 0, and for the other 3 operations we perform them in IN and then take the residue modulo k. For example, in IN7 we have 6+6=5. 3. Z, the algebra of the integers, with 0 interpreted as the zero element, s interpreted as successor, and + and * interpreted as integer addition and multiplication. 4. -

Thriving in a Crowded and Changing World: C++ 2006–2020
Thriving in a Crowded and Changing World: C++ 2006–2020 BJARNE STROUSTRUP, Morgan Stanley and Columbia University, USA Shepherd: Yannis Smaragdakis, University of Athens, Greece By 2006, C++ had been in widespread industrial use for 20 years. It contained parts that had survived unchanged since introduced into C in the early 1970s as well as features that were novel in the early 2000s. From 2006 to 2020, the C++ developer community grew from about 3 million to about 4.5 million. It was a period where new programming models emerged, hardware architectures evolved, new application domains gained massive importance, and quite a few well-financed and professionally marketed languages fought for dominance. How did C++ ś an older language without serious commercial backing ś manage to thrive in the face of all that? This paper focuses on the major changes to the ISO C++ standard for the 2011, 2014, 2017, and 2020 revisions. The standard library is about 3/4 of the C++20 standard, but this paper’s primary focus is on language features and the programming techniques they support. The paper contains long lists of features documenting the growth of C++. Significant technical points are discussed and illustrated with short code fragments. In addition, it presents some failed proposals and the discussions that led to their failure. It offers a perspective on the bewildering flow of facts and features across the years. The emphasis is on the ideas, people, and processes that shaped the language. Themes include efforts to preserve the essence of C++ through evolutionary changes, to simplify itsuse,to improve support for generic programming, to better support compile-time programming, to extend support for concurrency and parallel programming, and to maintain stable support for decades’ old code. -

Neufuzz: Efficient Fuzzing with Deep Neural Network
Received January 15, 2019, accepted February 6, 2019, date of current version April 2, 2019. Digital Object Identifier 10.1109/ACCESS.2019.2903291 NeuFuzz: Efficient Fuzzing With Deep Neural Network YUNCHAO WANG , ZEHUI WU, QIANG WEI, AND QINGXIAN WANG China National Digital Switching System Engineering and Technological Research Center, Zhengzhou 450000, China Corresponding author: Qiang Wei ([email protected]) This work was supported by National Key R&D Program of China under Grant 2017YFB0802901. ABSTRACT Coverage-guided graybox fuzzing is one of the most popular and effective techniques for discovering vulnerabilities due to its nature of high speed and scalability. However, the existing techniques generally focus on code coverage but not on vulnerable code. These techniques aim to cover as many paths as possible rather than to explore paths that are more likely to be vulnerable. When selecting the seeds to test, the existing fuzzers usually treat all seed inputs equally, ignoring the fact that paths exercised by different seed inputs are not equally vulnerable. This results in wasting time testing uninteresting paths rather than vulnerable paths, thus reducing the efficiency of vulnerability detection. In this paper, we present a solution, NeuFuzz, using the deep neural network to guide intelligent seed selection during graybox fuzzing to alleviate the aforementioned limitation. In particular, the deep neural network is used to learn the hidden vulnerability pattern from a large number of vulnerable and clean program paths to train a prediction model to classify whether paths are vulnerable. The fuzzer then prioritizes seed inputs that are capable of covering the likely to be vulnerable paths and assigns more mutation energy (i.e., the number of inputs to be generated) to these seeds. -

Chapter 13: Formal Proofs and Quantifiers
Chapter 13: Formal Proofs and Quantifiers § 13.1 Universal quantifier rules Universal Elimination (∀ Elim) ∀x S(x) ❺ S(c) Here x stands for any variable, c stands for any individual constant, and S(c) stands for the result of replacing all free occurrences of x in S(x) with c. Example 1. ∀x ∃y (Adjoins(x, y) ∧ SameSize(y, x)) 2. ∃y (Adjoins(b, y) ∧ SameSize(y, b)) ∀ Elim: 1 General Conditional Proof (∀ Intro) ✾c P(c) Where c does not occur outside Q(c) the subproof where it is introduced. ❺ ∀x (P(x) → Q(x)) There is an important bit of new notation here— ✾c , the “boxed constant” at the beginning of the assumption line. This says, in effect, “let’s call it c.” To enter the boxed constant in Fitch, start a new subproof and click on the downward pointing triangle ❼. This will open a menu that lets you choose the constant you wish to use as a name for an arbitrary object. Your subproof will typically end with some sentence containing this constant. In giving the justification for the universal generalization, we cite the entire subproof (as we do in the case of → Intro). Notice that although c may not occur outside the subproof where it is introduced, it may occur again inside a subproof within the original subproof. Universal Introduction (∀ Intro) ✾c Where c does not occur outside the subproof where it is P(c) introduced. ❺ ∀x P(x) Remember, any time you set up a subproof for ∀ Intro, you must choose a “boxed constant” on the assumption line of the subproof, even if there is no sentence on the assumption line. -
Symmetric Approximations of Pseudo-Boolean Functions with Applications to Influence Indexes
SYMMETRIC APPROXIMATIONS OF PSEUDO-BOOLEAN FUNCTIONS WITH APPLICATIONS TO INFLUENCE INDEXES JEAN-LUC MARICHAL AND PIERRE MATHONET Abstract. We introduce an index for measuring the influence of the kth smallest variable on a pseudo-Boolean function. This index is defined from a weighted least squares approximation of the function by linear combinations of order statistic functions. We give explicit expressions for both the index and the approximation and discuss some properties of the index. Finally, we show that this index subsumes the concept of system signature in engineering reliability and that of cardinality index in decision making. 1. Introduction Boolean and pseudo-Boolean functions play a central role in various areas of applied mathematics such as cooperative game theory, engineering reliability, and decision making (where fuzzy measures and fuzzy integrals are often used). In these areas indexes have been introduced to measure the importance of a variable or its influence on the function under consideration (see, e.g., [3, 7]). For instance, the concept of importance of a player in a cooperative game has been studied in various papers on values and power indexes starting from the pioneering works by Shapley [13] and Banzhaf [1]. These power indexes were rediscovered later in system reliability theory as Barlow-Proschan and Birnbaum measures of importance (see, e.g., [10]). In general there are many possible influence/importance indexes and they are rather simple and natural. For instance, a cooperative game on a finite set n = 1,...,n of players is a set function v∶ 2[n] → R with v ∅ = 0, which associates[ ] with{ any}coalition of players S ⊆ n its worth v S .
