The learning outcome of this course includes

  • Learning the foundations of logic based proving techniques,
  • Learning the various formal methods for program verification,
  • Mastering the logic based specification and verification of sequential and concurrent programs,
  • Mastering the specification and verification of Java programs,
  • Understanding background methods and techniques for program verification and
  • Learning future trends and applications of formal methods based software development.

Teaching methodology including the use of eLearning tools

The teaching method will be lectures in classroom.

Course content

The course will include the teaching of basics and advanced of the following topics

  • logic and proving
  • various formal methods
  • logic based specification
  • program verification
  • specification and verification of sequential programs, for instance, verifying Java programs specified in Java Modeling Language and
  • specification and verification of concurrent programs, for instance, using Spin model checker

Importantly, the course will help students to master methods for the verification of industrial applications developed in popular programming languages.

Prior knowledge expected

Some intuitive knowledge of logic and proving is helpful. However, reasonable programming skills are desired.

Examination information

Im Fall von online durchgeführten Prüfungen sind die Standards zu beachten, die die technischen Geräte der Studierenden erfüllen müssen, um an diesen Prüfungen teilnehmen zu können.

Examination methodology

The assessment of this course will be based on a written exam. The exam will include
