Verifying the Safety of a Flight-Critical System
This paper describes our work on demonstrating verification technologies on a
flight-critical system of realistic functionality, size, and complexity. Our
work targeted a commercial aircraft control system named Transport Class Model
(TCM), and involved several stages: formalizing and disambiguating requirements
in collaboration with do- main experts; processing models for their use by
formal verification tools; applying compositional techniques at the
architectural and component level to scale verification. Performed in the
context of a major NASA milestone, this study of formal verification in
practice is one of the most challenging that our group has performed, and it
took several person months to complete it. This paper describes the methodology
that we followed and the lessons that we learned.Comment: 17 pages, 5 figure
Dynamic IFC Theorems for Free!
We show that noninterference and transparency, the key soundness theorems for
dynamic IFC libraries, can be obtained "for free", as direct consequences of
the more general parametricity theorem of type abstraction. This allows us to
give very short soundness proofs for dynamic IFC libraries such as faceted
values and LIO. Our proofs stay short even when fully mechanized for Agda
implementations of the libraries in terms of type abstraction.Comment: CSF 2021 final versio
