  1. 1. Explanation and deduction : a defence of deductive chauvinism

    Författare :Henrik Hållsten; Matti Sintonen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Deductive explanation; Statistical explanation; Chances; Propensities; Probabilities; Sine qua non; Probabilistic causality; Indeterminism; Ideal explanatory text; Explanatory information; Explanatory sketches; Dynamic systems; Chaotic systems; Approximate solutions; Argument generating procedure. Central figures: Hempel; Coffa; Salmon; Railton; Humphreys; Kitcher; Poincaré; Suppes; Lorenz; Hénon.; Theoretical Philosophy; teoretisk filosofi;

    Sammanfattning : In this essay I defend the notion of deductive explanation mainly against two types of putative counterexamples: those found in genuinely indeterministic systems and those found in complex dynamic systems. Using Railton's notions of explanatory information and ideal explanatory text, deductivism is defended in an indeterministic setting. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Towards a Deductive Compilation Approach

    Författare :Ran Ji; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software Engineering; Software Verification; Partial Evaluation; Symbolic Execution; Deductive Compilation;

    Sammanfattning : Software correctness is an important topic, however, it is difficult to achieve. This thesis is a step towards a new way to ensure the software correctness in both source code and bytecode level. KeY is a state-of-the-art verification tool for Java source code. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Automated Deductive Verification of Safety-Critical Embedded Software

    Författare :Christian Lidström; Dilian Gurov; Musard Balliu; Bernhard Beckert; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; software sontracts; contract-based design; formal verification; deductive verification; contract inference; program instrumentation; embedded software; embedded systems; Frama-C; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Embedded systems are everywhere in society, and in many industries, such as the automotive industry, embedded systems are safety-critical. Embedded systems are today also increasingly controlled by software, with advances in, for example, autonomous driving. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Deductive Planning and Composite Actions in Temporal Action Logic

    Författare :Martin Magnusson; Patrick Doherty; John-Jules Meyer; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Temporal Action Logic; deductive planning; composite actions; interval algebra; constraint logic programming; execution monitoring; Computer science; Datalogi;

    Sammanfattning : Temporal Action Logic is a well established logical formalism for reasoning about action and change that has long been used as a formal specification language. Its first-order characterization and explicit time representation makes it a suitable target for automated theorem proving and the application of temporal constraint solvers. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Static Analysis and Deductive Verification of Programs

    Författare :Tobias Gedell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with analysis of programs. Analysis of programs can be divided into two camps: static analysis and formal verification.Static program analyses compute a result and terminate for all programs. LÄS MER
