Murφ
Murφ (/ˈmɝ.fi/, also spelled Murphi) is an explicit-state model checker developed at Stanford University, and widely used for formal verification of cache-coherence protocols. History Murφ's early history is described in a paper by David Dill. The first version of Murφ was designed at Stanford University in 1990 and 1991 by Prof. David Dill and his graduate students Andreas Drexler, Alan Hu, and Han Yang, and primarily implemented by Andreas Drexler. The specification language was extensively modified and extended by David Dill, Alan Hu, C. Norris Ip, Ralph Melton, Seungjoon Park, and Han Yang. Ralph Melton implemented the new version during the summer and fall of 1992. Seungjoon Park added liveness checking and fairness constraints, but because the algorithm for liveness verification conflicted with important optimizations, particularly symmetry reduction, liveness verification was omitted in subsequent releases. C. Norris Ip implemented reversible rules and repetition co ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

ANSI C++
C++ (pronounced "C plus plus") is a high-level general-purpose programming language created by Danish computer scientist Bjarne Stroustrup as an extension of the C programming language, or "C with Classes". The language has expanded significantly over time, and modern C++ now has object-oriented, generic, and functional features in addition to facilities for low-level memory manipulation. It is almost always implemented as a compiled language, and many vendors provide C++ compilers, including the Free Software Foundation, LLVM, Microsoft, Intel, Embarcadero, Oracle, and IBM, so it is available on many platforms. C++ was designed with systems programming and embedded, resource-constrained software and large systems in mind, with performance, efficiency, and flexibility of use as its design highlights. C++ has also been found useful in many other contexts, with key strengths being software infrastructure and resource-constrained applications, including desktop applicatio ...

Linux
Linux ( or ) is a family of open-source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991, by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged as a Linux distribution, which includes the kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name "GNU/Linux" to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy. Popular Linux distributions include Debian, Fedora Linux, and Ubuntu, the latter of which itself consists of many different distributions and modifications, including Lubuntu and Xubuntu. Commercial distributions include Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise. Desktop Linux distributions include a windowing system such as X11 or Wayland, and a desktop environment such as GNOME or KDE Plasma. Distributions inten ...

Model Checking
In computer science, model checking or property checking is a method for checking whether a finite-state model of a system meets a given specification (also known as correctness). This is typically associated with hardware or software systems, where the specification contains liveness requirements (such as avoidance of livelock) as well as safety requirements (such as avoidance of states representing a system crash). In order to solve such a problem algorithmically, both the model of the system and its specification are formulated in some precise mathematical language. To this end, the problem is formulated as a task in logic, namely to check whether a structure satisfies a given logical formula. This general concept applies to many kinds of logic and many kinds of structures. A simple model-checking problem consists of verifying whether a formula in the propositional logic is satisfied by a given structure. Overview Property checking is used for verification when two d ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Derivatives
The derivative of a function is the rate of change of the function's output relative to its input value. Derivative may also refer to: In mathematics and economics * Brzozowski derivative in the theory of formal languages * Formal derivative, an operation on elements of a polynomial ring which mimics the form of the derivative from calculus * Radon–Nikodym derivative in measure theory *Derivative (set theory), a concept applicable to normal functions *Derivative (graph theory), an alternative term for a line graph deva * Derivative (finance), a contract whose value is derived from that of other quantities *Derivative suit or derivative action, a type of lawsuit filed by shareholders of a corporation In science and engineering * Derivative (chemistry), a type of compound which is a product of the process of derivatization * Derivative (linguistics), the process of forming a new word on the basis of an existing word, e.g. happiness and unhappy from happy * Aeroderivative gas turb ...

Cache Coherence
In computer architecture, cache coherence is the uniformity of shared resource data that ends up stored in multiple local caches. When clients in a system maintain caches of a common memory resource, problems may arise with incoherent data, which is particularly the case with CPUs in a multiprocessing system. In the illustration on the right, consider both the clients have a cached copy of a particular memory block from a previous read. Suppose the client on the bottom updates/changes that memory block, the client on the top could be left with an invalid cache of memory without any notification of the change. Cache coherence is intended to manage such conflicts by maintaining a coherent view of the data values in multiple caches. Overview In a shared memory multiprocessor system with a separate cache memory for each processor, it is possible to have many copies of shared data: one copy in the main memory and one in the local cache of each processor that requested it.
