PiP 2014: Principles in Practice
Co-located with POPL 2014
Saturday 25 January, 2014. San Diego, California, USA
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~pes20/pip2014.html
Recent years have seen a number research projects applying rigorous
semantics to the analysis or design of industrially significant
real-world languages and systems, in various contexts. Principles in
Practice (PiP) is an informal workshop bringing together researchers
to discuss the issues involved in engaging with the various industrial
communities, in developing and using semantics at scale, in handling
pre-existing systems complexity, and in the wide range of testing,
analysis, and proof-based techniques that can be applied. There will
be a programme of invited talks, with no proceedings.
Speakers
Peter Sewell, Introduction and REMS project (10 minutes)
Andrew Kennedy / Nick Benton, Formalizing .EXEs, .DLLs, and all that
Benjamin Pierce, Verification and random testing of the SAFE architecture
