Asynchronous Control-State Choreographies

Abstract

Choreographies prescribe the rendez-vous synchronisation of messages in a system of communicating finite state machines. Such a system is called realisable, if the traces of the prescribed communication coincide with those of the asynchronous system of peers, where the communication channels either use FIFO queues or multiset mailboxes. In a recent article realisability was characterised by two necessary conditions that together are sufficient. A simple consequence is that realisability in the presence of a choreography becomes decidable. In this article we extend this work by generalising choreographies to control-state choreographies, which enable parallelism. We redefine P2P systems on grounds of control-state machines and show that a control-state choreography is equivalent to the rendez-vous compositions of its peers and that language-synchronisability coincides with synchronisability. These results are used to characterise realisability of control-state choreographies. As for the case of FSM-based choreographies we prove two necessary conditions: a sequence condition and a choice condition. Then we also show that these two conditions together are sufficient for the realisability of control-state choreographies.

Formal Verification of Proofs from Automated Theorem Provers for Higher-Order Logic

We identify common challenges and requirements for verifying proofs from automated theorem provers in the Dedukti logical framework and develop a general methodology for deriving encodings of calculus rules and proof steps, including clausification. We then apply this methodology to the EP calculus for higher-order logic and integrate it into the automated theorem prover Leo-III. The resulting prototype reconstructs about 80% of generated proof steps automatically, making Leo-III the first higher-order automated theorem prover to support independently checkable proof reconstruction and providing a basis for cross-system reuse. The implementation uncovered several bugs in Leo-III.

Arithmetics within the Linear Time Hierarchy

We identify fragments of the arithmetic $S_1$ that enjoy nice closure properties and have exact characterization of their definable multifunctions. To do this, in the language of $S_1$, $L_1$, starting from the formula classes, $Σ^{\mathsf b}_{i}$, which ignore sharply bounded quantifiers when determining quantifier alternations, we define new syntactic classes by counting bounded existential sharply bounded universal quantifiers blocks. Using these, we define arithmetics: $\breve{S}^{i}_{1}$, $TLS^i_1$ and $TSC^i_1$. $\breve{S}^{i}_{1}$ consists of open axioms for the language symbols and length induction for one of our new classes, $SIUT_{i,1}^{\{p(|id|)\}}$. $TLS^i_1$ and $TSC^i_1$ are defined using axioms related to dependent choice sequences for formulas from two other classes within $Σ^{\mathsf b}_{i}$. We prove for $i \geq 1$ that $$TLS^i_1 \subseteq TSC^i_1 \subseteq \breve{S}^{i}_{1} \preceq_{\forall B(SITT_{i+1}^{\{p(|id|)\}})} TLS^{i+1}_1$$ and that the $SITT_{i}^{\{p(|id|)\}}$-definable in $TLS^i_1$ (resp. $SITT_{i}^{\{2^{p(||id||)}\}}$-definable in $TSC^i_1$) multifunctions are $L_1$-$FLOGSPACE^{SIT_{i,1}}[wit]$ (resp. $L_1$-$FSC^{SIT_{i,1}}[wit]$). These multifunction classes are respectively the logspace or $SC$ (poly-time, polylog-space) computable multifunctions whose output is bound by a term in $L_1$ and that have access to a witness oracle for another restriction on the $Σ^{\mathsf b}_{i}$ formulas, $SIT_{i,1}$. For the $i=1$ cases, this simplifies respectively to the functions in logspace and $SC$, Steve's Class, poly-time, polylog-space. We prove independence results related to the Matiyasevich Robinson Davis Putnam Theorem (MRDP) and to whether our theories prove simultaneous nondeterministic polynomial time, sublinear space is equal to co-nondeterministic polynomial time, sublinear space.

TREBL -- A Relative Complete Temporal Event-B Logic. Part I: Theory

The verification of liveness conditions is an important aspect of state-based rigorous methods. This article addresses the extension of the logic of Event-B to a powerful logic, in which properties of traces of an Event-B machine can be expressed. However, all formulae of this logic are still interpreted over states of an Event-B machine rather than traces. The logic exploits that for an Event-B machine $M$ a state $S$ determines all traces of $M$ starting in $S$. We identify a fragment called TREBL of this logic, in which all liveness conditions of interest can be expressed, and define a set of sound derivation rules for the fragment. We further show relative completeness of these derivation rules in the sense that for every valid entailment of a formula $φ$ one can find a derivation, provided the machine $M$ is sufficiently refined. The decisive property is that certain variant terms must be definable in the refined machine. We show that such refinements always exist. Throughout the article several examples from the field of security are used to illustrate the theory.
