Abstract

We instantiate an Isabelle/HOL framework for proof carrying code to Jinja bytecode, a downsized variant of Java bytecode featuring objects, inheritance, method calls and exceptions. Bytecode annotated in a first order expression language can be certified not to produce arithmetic overflows. For this purpose we use a generic verification condition generator, which we have proven correct and relatively complete.
