But this high reliance on computers has not come without a risk to the society or a challenge to computer scientists. As many computer systems of today are safety critical, it is crucial for computer scientists to make sure that computer systems, both the hardware and software components, behave correctly under all circumstances. In this study, we are interested in techniques of program verification that are aimed at ensuring the correctness of the software component. In this work, constraint programming techniques are used to device a program verification framework where constraint solvers play the role of typical verification tools. The programs considered are written in some subset of Java, and their specifications are written in some subset of Java Modeling Language(JML). In our framework, the program verification process has two principal steps: constraint generation and constraint solving. A program together with its specification is first parsed into a system of constraints. And then, the system of constraints is processed using constraint solvers so that the correctness of the original program is proved to hold, or not, based on the outcome of the constraint solving. The performance of our framework is compared with other well-known program verification tools using standard benchmarks, and our framework has performed quite well for most of the cases.Faculdade de Ciências e TecnologiaBarahona, PedroRUNBeyene, Tewodros Awgichew2012-10-15T10:01:47Z20112011-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/7965enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-22T17:11:31Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/7965Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T16:42:18.479613Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
