The verification systems Boogie and Why3 use their respective intermediate
languages to generate verification conditions from high-level programs. Since
the two systems support different back-end provers (such as Z3 and Alt-Ergo)
and are used to encode different high-level languages (such as C# and Java),
being able to translate between their intermediate languages would provide a
way to reuse one system's features to verify programs meant for the other. This
paper describes a translation of Boogie into WhyML (Why3's intermediate
language) that preserves semantics, verifiability, and program structure to a
large degree. We implemented the translation as a tool and applied it to 194
Boogie-verified programs of various sources and sizes; Why3 verified 83% of the
translated programs with the same outcome as Boogie. These results indicate
that the translation is often effective and practically applicable
