Abstract interpretation as anti-refinement (1310.4283v2)
Published 16 Oct 2013 in cs.PL
Abstract: This article shows a correspondence between abstract interpretation of imperative programs and the refinement calculus: in the refinement calculus, an abstract interpretation of a program is a specification which is a function. This correspondence can be used to guide the design of mechanically verified static analyses, keeping the correctness proof well separated from the heuristic parts of the algorithms.
