A Framework for Modelling, Verification and Transformation of Concurrent Imperative Programs

Abstract

The paper gives a detailed presentation of a framework, embedded into the simply typed higher-order logic and aimed at the support of sound and structured reasoning about various properties of models of imperative programs with interleaved computations. As a case study, a model of the Peterson's mutual exclusion algorithm will be scrutinised in the course of the paper illustrating applicability of the framework.
