Abstract

A conceptually simple and practically very useful form of data abstraction in model checking is variable hiding, which amounts to suppressing all information about a given set of variables. The abC tool automates this for programs written in the C programming language. It features an integrated demand-driven pointer analysis, and has been implemented as an extension of GCC.
