Background: In this Innovative Practice Work in Progress, we present our initial efforts to integrate formal methods, with a focus on model-checking specifications written in Temporal Logic of Actions (TLA+), into computer science education, targeting undergraduate juniors/seniors and graduate students. Many safety-critical systems and services crucially depend on correct and reliable behavior. Formal methods can play a key role in ensuring correct and safe system behavior, yet remain underutilized in educational and industry contexts. Aims: We aim to (1) qualitatively assess the state of formal methods in computer science programs, (2) construct level-appropriate examples that could be included midway into one's undergraduate studies, (3) demonstrate how to address successive 'failuresy' through progressively stringent safety and liveness requirements, and (4) establish an ongoing framework for assessing interest and relevance among students. Methods: We detail our pedagogical strategy for embedding TLA+ into an intermediate course on formal methods at our institution. After starting with a refresher on mathematical logic, students specify the rules of simple puzzles in TLA+ and use its included model checker (known as TLC) to find a solution. We gradually escalate to more complex, dynamic, event-driven systems, such as the control logic of a microwave oven, where students will study safety and liveness requirements. We subsequently discuss explicit concurrency, along with thread safety and deadlock avoidance, by modeling bounded counters and buffers. Results: Our initial findings suggest that through careful curricular design and choice of examples and tools, it is possible to inspire and cultivate a new generation of software engineers proficient in formal methods. Conclusions: Our initial efforts suggest that 84% of our students had a positive experience in our formal methods course. Our future plans include a longitudinal analysis within our own institution and

We formulate a reverse-mode automatic differentiation (RAD) algorithm for (applied) simply typed lambda calculus in the style of Pearlmutter and Siskind [27], using the graphical formalism of string diagrams. Thanks to string diagram rewriting, we are able to formally prove for the first time the soundness of such an algorithm. Our approach requires developing a calculus of string diagrams with hierarchical features in the spirit of functorial boxes, in order to model closed monoidal (and cartesian closed) structure. To give an efficient yet principled implementation of the RAD algorithm, we use foliations of our hierarchical string diagrams. © Mario Alvarez-Picallo, Dan Ghica, David Sprunger, and Fabio Zanasi.

This paper develops a formal string diagram language for monoidal closed categories. Previous work has shown that string diagrams for freely generated symmetric monoidal categories can be viewed as hypergraphs with interfaces, and the axioms of these categories can be realized by rewriting systems. This work proposes hierarchical hypergraphs as a suitable formalization of string diagrams for monoidal closed categories. We then show double pushout rewriting captures the axioms of these closed categories. © Mario Alvarez-Picallo, Dan Ghica, David Sprunger, and Fabio Zanasi

Optimistic versioning is a key component in supporting collaborative workflows. Text-based versioning has been widely adopted for versioning code, but in model-driven engineering, dealing with visual concrete syntaxes, new methods are required. In the case of blended modeling, a mixture of both textual and visual syntaxes, concurrently editable and synchronizable, introduces additional challenges. We propose a type of operation-based versioning to record not only user edits, but also bi-directional change propagations between concrete and abstract syntax. This way we can support blended modeling with layout continuity, and flexible handling of missing information (e. g., layout information) when rendering changes from abstract to concrete syntax. In addition, the proposed versioning approach enables collaborative conflict resolution by allowing partial conflict resolution, thus deferring a final resolution. © 2022 Copyright for this paper by its authors.

Static analysis is a method to analyse the source code without executing it. It is widely used to find bugs and code smells in industrial software. Among other methods, the most important techniques are the one based on the abstract syntax tree and the one performing symbolic execution. Both of these methods found their role in modern software development as they have different advantages and limitations. In this tutorial, we present two problems from the C++ programming language: the elimination of redundant pointers;and how can we deal with dangling pointers originated from the misuse of the std::string class. These two issues have different theoretical backgrounds and finding them requires different implementation techniques. We will provide a step-by-step guide to implement the checkers – software to identify the aforementioned problems –, one is based on the abstract syntax analysis method, the other will explore the possibilities of the symbolic execution. The methods are explained in great detail and supported by code examples. We intend this tutorial both for architects of static analysis tools and for those developers who want to understand the advantages and the constraints of the individual methods. © 2024, CC BY.

The shape and area of the crown of each tree are among the most influential parameters for identifying and controlling the processes of photosynthesis, respiration, transpiration and its management. In such a way that various physiographic functions, such as carbon dioxide absorption, light energy absorption, oxygen release and transpiration, which are vital for the growth and development of the tree, are done in the crown. In this research, the RGB image of the UAV with a spatial resolution of 2 cm was resampled to three pixel sizes of 10, 30 and 50 cm. Then, each image was classified separately by SVM, ANN and MLC algorithms, which are all part of Ensemble. In the next step, each of the obtained crowns was compared with the digitization of the same crown, and based on the area of the crown obtained from each classification and normalization method, the weight was obtained specifically for the same crown. Finally, by using the weighted majority voting method, classifications were fusioned at the decision level. The results showed that the ANN method gives better results in all pixel sizes compared to MLC and SVM. Also, the combination of different classification methods with the weighted majority voting method based on the weight assigned to the same crown based on each classification method has significantly increased the classification accuracy of the tree crown in all the sizes of the analyzed pixels. © Author(s) 2024.

Model-based Generation of Attack-Fault Trees

arXiv

arXiv 2023年

作者： Groner, Raffaela Witte, Thomas Raschke, Alexander Hirn, Sophie Pekaric, Irdin Frick, Markus Tichy, Matthias Felderer, Michael Institute of Software Engineering and Programming Languages Ulm University Germany Department of Computer Science University of Innsbruck Austria Department of Information Systems and Computer Science University of Liechtenstein Liechtenstein Germany Department of Mathematics and Computer Science University of Cologne Germany

Joint safety and security analysis of cyber-physical systems is a necessary step to correctly capture inter-dependencies between these properties. Attack-Fault Trees represent a combination of dynamic Fault Trees and Attack Trees and can be used to model and model-check a holistic view on both safety and security. Manually creating a complete AFT for the whole system is, however, a daunting task. It needs to span multiple abstraction layers, e.g., abstract application architecture and data flow as well as system and library dependencies that are affected by various vulnerabilities. We present an AFT generation tool-chain that facilitates this task using partial Fault and Attack Trees that are either manually created or mined from vulnerability databases. We semi-automatically create two system models that provide the necessary information to automatically combine these partial Fault and Attack Trees into complete AFTs using graph transformation rules. © 2023, CC BY-NC-ND.

CONTEXT: Versioning allows users to efficiently create and evolve artifacts, not only but especially in the domain of model-driven engineering. Due to collaboration tools, the place and time where users jointly work at their artifacts do not play an important role anymore. Objective: We systematically elaborated a classification framework for collaboration and versioning tools. The intention is threefold: First, it should be possible to classify existing approaches. Second, deriving from user goals requirements to be met, and capabilities to be supported by a new tool. Third, given a set of capabilities, highlight which user goals can be achieved. Method: According to Kang and Lee, we systematically elaborated a problem space and a solution space and created mappings between both spaces and their sub-spaces. To demonstrate the applicability, we classified existing VCS like git, Google Docs, and several MDE-specific approaches. Results: The created feature diagram covers 238 features and contains about 87 constraints. Conclusion: The developed framework supports researchers and developers in classifying their tools, revealing new opportunities to improve their tools, and guiding the development of new tools.
