Variability-aware computing is the efficient application of programs to different sets of inputs that exhibit some variability. One example is program analyses applied to Software Product Lines (SPLs). In this paper we present the design and development of a variability-aware version of the Souffl{e} Datalog engine. The engine can take facts annotated with Presence Conditions (PCs) as input, and compute the PCs of its inferred facts, eliminating facts that do not exist in any valid configuration. We evaluate our variability-aware Souffl{e} implementation on several fact sets annotated with PCs to measure the associated overhead in terms of processing time and database size.

Obtaining good performance when programming heterogeneous computing platforms poses significant challenges. We present a program transformation environment, implemented in Haskell, where architecture-agnostic scientific C code with semantic annotatio ns is transformed into functionally equivalent code better suited for a given platform. The transformation steps are represented as rules that can be fired when certain syntactic and semantic conditions are fulfilled. These rules are not hard-wired into the rewriting engine: they are written in a C-like language and are automatically processed and incorporated into the rewriting engine. That makes it possible for end-users to add their own rules or to provide sets of rules that are adapted to certain specific domains or purposes.
A software analysis is a computer program that takes some representation of a software product as input and produces some useful information about that product as output. A software product line encompasses emph{many} software product variants, and t hus existing analyses can be applied to each of the product variations individually, but not to the entire product line as a whole. Enumerating all product variants and analyzing them one by one is usually intractable due to the combinatorial explosion of the number of product variants with respect to product line features. Several software analyses (e.g., type checkers, model checkers, data flow analyses) have been redesigned/re-implemented to support variability. This usually requires a lot of time and effort, and the variability-aware version of the analysis might have new errors/bugs that do not exist in the original one. Given an analysis program written in a functional language based on PCF, in this paper we present two approaches to transforming (lifting) it into a semantically equivalent variability-aware analysis. A light-weight approach (referred to as emph{shallow lifting}) wraps the analysis program into a variability-aware version, exploring all combinations of its input arguments. Deep lifting, on the other hand, is a program rewriting mechanism where the syntactic constructs of the input program are rewritten into their variability-aware counterparts. Compositionally this results in an efficient program semantically equivalent to the input program, modulo variability. We present the correctness criteria for functional program lifting, together with correctness proof sketches of our program transformations. We evaluate our approach on a set of program analyses applied to the BusyBox C-language product line.
Datalog has become a popular language for writing static analyses. Because Datalog is very limited, some implementations of Datalog for static analysis have extended it with new language features. However, even with these features it is hard or impos sible to express a large class of analyses because they use logical formulae to represent program state. FormuLog fills this gap by extending Datalog to represent, manipulate, and reason about logical formulae. We have used FormuLog to implement declarati
Static analysis approximates the results of a program by examining only its syntax. For example, control-flow analysis (CFA) determines which syntactic lambdas (for functional languages) or (for object-oriented) methods may be invoked at each call si te within a program. Rich theoretical results exist studying control flow analysis for Scheme-like languages, but implementations are often complex and specialized. By contrast, object-oriented languages (Java in particular) enjoy high-precision control-flow analyses that scale to thousands (or more) of lines of code. State-of-the-art implementations (such as DOOP on Souffle) structure the analysis using Horn-SAT (Datalog) to enable compilation of the analysis to efficient implementations such as high-performance relational algebra kernels. In this paper, we present an implementation of control-flow analysis for a significant subset of Scheme (including set!, call/cc, and primitive operations) using the Souffle Datalog engine. We present an evaluation on a worst-case term demonstrating the polynomial complexity of our m-CFA and remark upon scalability results using Souffle.
Satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) solving has become a critical part of many static analyses, including symbolic execution, refinement type checking, and model checking. We propose Formulog, a domain-specific language that makes it possible to wri te a range of SMT-based static analyses in a way that is both close to their formal specifications and amenable to high-level optimizations and efficient evaluation. Formulog extends the logic programming language Datalog with a first-order functional language and mechanisms for representing and reasoning about SMT formulas; a novel type system supports the construction of expressive formulas, while ensuring that neither normal evaluation nor SMT solving goes wrong. Our case studies demonstrate that a range of SMT-based analyses can naturally and concisely be encoded in Formulog, and that -- thanks to this encoding -- high-level Datalog-style optimizations can be automatically and advantageously applied to these analyses.
