20CSSET122 Automated Verification 3-0-0- 3 2020

Pre-requisites: Automata Theory and Computability Course


Objectives:
Formal verification is used in proving the correctness of systems such as: software expressed as
source code, cryptographic protocols, combinational circuits, and digital circuits with internal
memory. The verification of these systems is done by providing a formal proof on an abstract
mathematical model of the system. There are various tools (Alloy, Rodin, Spin, NuSMV, Pex,
FindBug etc) developed by R&D organizations to help the different stages in Software
development. The content of this course introduces the formal methods which serve as the
foundation for all such kind of tools. Hence studying this subject is essential for understanding,
improving and developing such tools. This is an active research area with research group in
various Universities and R&D groups in the industry. This subject is relevant for a PG course in
Computer Science and Systems Engineering.

Syllabus

Transition System Models of Systems; Linear Time Properties; Regular Properties; LTL and CTL,
Model Checking omega-regular properties, Model Checking Tool, Applying model checking
tools on example systems.

Course Outcome:

1. Knowledge about formal techniques and tool for proving properties about a system.
2. Ability to use mathematical objects for system modeling
3. Ability to write formal (mathematical) specification.
4. Experience with industry standard tools for formal verification.

Pre-requisites: Automata Theory and Computability


Course Objectives:
The major hurdle in the software development process is ensuring the promised functionality.
Most real softwares have lots of defects. They are difficult to handle for the software industry
and often they cause catastrophes. Defect detection is hard because of the difficulty in
exhaustive testing and because of the limitations of analysis tools. This subject introduces formal
and rigorous ways of specifying the requirements and performing different analysis on a
software wrt requirements specified.

Syllabus

Objectives of program analysis; Abstract Interpretation; Inter-procedural analysis; Pointer


Analysis and Hoare-Logic- based program verification.

Course Outcome:

1. Knowledge about different program analysis techniques


2. Ability to perform various analysis on softwares
3. Ability to propose new methods for program analysis
4. Prepares one for a good career in software industry

3. To impart critical thinking abilities.

Methodology

Individual students are required to choose a topic of their interest from related topics
to the stream of specialization, preferably from outside the M. Tech. syllabus. The students
are required to do a moderate literature review on the topic and give seminar. A committee
consisting of at least three faculty members (preferably specialized in the respective stream)
shall assess the presentation of the seminar and award marks to the students based on merits
of topic of presentation. Each student shall submit two copies of a write up of his seminar
topic. The seminar report shall not have any plagiarised content (all sources shall be properly
cited or acknowledged). One copy shall be returned to the student after duly certifying it by
the chairman of the assessing committee and the other shall be kept in the departmental
library. Internal continuous assessment marks are awarded based on the relevance of the
topic, presentation skill, quality of the report and participation. It is encouraged to do
simulations related to the chosen topic and present the results at the end of the semester.

research

The mini project is designed to improve knowledge about real life problems and thereby
enhance the problem solving ability. Students can take up any project pertaining to relevance in
the field of Geotechnical Engineering and Structural Engineering. Projects can be chosen either
from the list provided by the faculty or in the field of interest of the student. As far as possible,
projects should be done in the parent institution. For external projects, students should obtain
prior permission after submitting the details of the guide and synopsis of the work. The
external project guide should have a minimum qualification of ME/M.Tech. in Geotechnical
Engineering, Structural Engineering or related fields. At the end of each phase of work,
presentation of the project should be conducted, which will be evaluated by a panel of
examiners. A detailed project report duly approved by the guide in the prescribed format
should be submitted for end semester assessment. Marks will be awarded based on the report
and their performance during presentations.

Methodology

Individual students are required to choose a topic of their interest from related topics
to the stream of specialization, preferably from outside the M. Tech syllabus. The students
are required to do a moderate literature review on the topic and give seminar. A committee
consisting of at least three faculty members (preferably specialized in the respective stream)
shall assess the presentation of the seminar and award marks to the students based on merits
of topic of presentation. Each student shall submit two copies of a write up of his seminar
topic. The seminar report shall not have any plagiarized content (all sources shall be properly
cited or acknowledged). One copy shall be returned to the student after duly certifying it by
the chairman of the assessing committee and the other shall be kept in the departmental
library. Internal continuous assessment marks are awarded based on the relevance of the
topic, presentation skill, quality of the report and participation. It is encouraged to do
simulations related to the chosen topic and present the results at the end of the semester.

3. To impart critical thinking abilities.

Methodology

Individual students are required to choose a topic of their interest from related topics to the
stream of specialization, preferably from outside the M. Tech syllabus. The students are required to do
a moderate literature review on the topic and give seminar. A committee consisting of at least three
faculty members (preferably specialized in the respective stream) shall assess the presentation of the
seminar and award marks to the students based on merits of topic of presentation. Each student shall
submit two copies of a write up of his seminar topic. The seminar report shall not have any plagiarised
content (all sources shall be properly cited or acknowledged). One copy shall be returned to the
student after duly certifying it by the chairman of the assessing committee and the other shall be kept in
the departmental library. Internal continuous assessment marks are awarded based on the relevance of
the topic, presentation skill, quality of the report and participation. It is encouraged to do simulations
related to the chosen topic and present the results at the end of the semester.
