Certification of high-level and low-level programs

From July 7 to July 11, at Institut Henri Poincaré.

This workshop is organised around invited talks and plenty of time for discussions. Topics of interest include :

• separation logic and concurrency (CSL, rely-guarantee, ramified separation logic, high-order concurrency, …)
• semantics of low-level languages (C, SSA, weak-memory models, effects and monads, linear logic, games semantics…)
• compositional verification and program refinement (library abstractions, simulation, logical relations, …)
• compositional verified compilers (CompCert, LLVM, translation validation, …)
• certified system software (runtime environment, GC, OS kernels, web servers & other applications, network controllers, …)
• advanced proof techniques for formalizing syntax and semantics (binding, co-induction, dependent types…)
