Implementing Feferman-Landin Logic. The objective of this project is to utilise computer based verification tools (such as PVS and Rewritting Logic) to develop a software engineering environment for specifying and verifying systems written in high-level programming languages such as Java, Scheme, and ML. The project will thus subtantially advance the use of formal computer based tools to develop reliable programs and specifications for life-critical systems. The project will also develop form ....Implementing Feferman-Landin Logic.

The project will thus subtantially advance the use of formal computer based tools to develop reliable programs and specifications for life-critical systems. The project will also develop formally
based interoperability between the PVS and Maude systems, two widely
used computer tools for reasoning about complex systems.Read moreRead less
Adapting the Bulk Synchronous Parallel processing model to Peer-to-Peer Networked Computing. Advances in distributed computing have shown that data parallel and parametric applications domains are amenable to wide area distribution. The project will advance the Bulk Synchronous Parallel processing model to describe innovative applications from the loosely synchronous domain, e.g. fluid dynamics, strategy algorithms and N-body problems are challenges that have significant scientific and industria ....Adapting the Bulk Synchronous Parallel processing model to Peer-to-Peer Networked Computing. Advances in distributed computing have shown that data parallel and parametric applications domains are amenable to wide area distribution. The project will advance the Bulk Synchronous Parallel processing model to describe innovative applications from the loosely synchronous domain, e.g. fluid dynamics, strategy algorithms and N-body problems are challenges that have significant scientific and industrial value. The project specializes the exciting peer-to-peer paradigm, a frontier of inter-networking technology. By using the latest techniques and taking advantage of the technology implosion caused by low cost parallel infrastructure, the project outcomes will give Australia a strong position in the future of parallel technology.Read moreRead less
