Communicating systems have become ubiquitous in today\u27s society.Unfortunately, the complexity of their interactions makesthem particularly prone to failures such as deadlocked statescaused by misbehaving components, or memory exhaustion due to a surgein message traffic (malicious or not).These vulnerabilities constitute a real risk to users, withconsequences ranging from minor inconveniences to the possibility ofloss of life and capital.This thesis presents results that aim to increase the reliability of communicating systems.First, we implement a choreography language that can, by construction, only describe deadlock-free systems.Second, we develop a cost semantics to prove programs free of out-of-memory errors.Lastly, we improve both results by using novel semantic approaches that strengthen key theorems and facilitate further proof development.All of these results are formalized in the HOL4 theorem prover and integrated with the CakeML verified stack
