Learning objectives

The course aims at providing the foundational concepts of verification on both hardware and software systems, for example by using temporal logic and semantic of traces to represent their behavior. At the end of the course the student (1) will have acquired the technical knowledge of model-based verification (model-checking), (2) will be able to use those knowledge to model behavior of specific hardware and software systems and (3) will be able to continue, potentially in an autonomous way, to study and research the field of technologies for formal verification of systems.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Programming, algorithms, propositional logic, first-order logic, at the undergraduate level

Program

Annotations and invariants. Partial and total correctness. Methodologies for deductive verification. Basic paths. Verification conditions. Decision procedures for satisfiability (SAT and SMT).

Bibliography

Visualizza la bibliografia con Leganto, strumento che il Sistema Bibliotecario mette a disposizione per recuperare i testi in programma d'esame in modo semplice e innovativo.

Didactic methods

Lectures in class, exercises in class, individual programming project independently developed at home or in the lab.

Learning assessment procedures

First round: a written midterm exam in class, a written final exam, and an individual programming project independently developed during the course.
Later rounds: a written exam.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

Correctness and completeness of solutions; correctness, useability, and quality of documentation for the project.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

First round: 25%PI + 25%PF +50%P dove PI is the grade in the midterm exam, PF is the grade in the final exam, and P is the grade in the project.
Later rounds: 100%E where E is the grade in the written exam.
