Abstract

A simple relational language is presented that has two desirable properties. First, it is sufficiently expressive to encode, fairly naturally, a variety of software design problems. Second, it is amenable to fully automatic analysis. This paper explains the language and its semantics, and describes a new analysis scheme (based on a stochastic boolean solver) that dramatically outperforms existing schemes.
