PKind is a novel parallel k-induction-based model checker of invariant properties for finite- or infinite-state Lustre programs. Its architecture, which is strictly message-based, is designed to minimize synchronization delays and easily accommodate the incorporation of incremental invariant generators to enhance basic k-induction. We describe PKinds functionality and main features, and present experimental evidence that PKind significantly speeds up the verification of safety properties and, due to incremental invariant generation, also considerably increases the number of provable ones.

Spatial and spatio-temporal model checking techniques have a wide range of application domains, among which large scale distributed systems and signal and image analysis. We explore a new domain, namely (semi-)automatic contouring in Medical Imaging,
introducing the tool VoxLogicA which merges the state-of-the-art library of computational imaging algorithms ITK with the unique combination of declarative specification and optimised execution provided by spatial logic model checking. The result is a rapid, logic based analysis development methodology. The analysis of an existing benchmark of medical images for segmentation of brain tumours shows that simple VoxLogicA analysis can reach state-of-the-art accuracy, competing with best-in-class algorithms, with the advantage of explainability and replicability. Furthermore, due to a two-orders-of-magnitude speedup compared to the existing general-purpose spatio-temporal model checker topochecker, VoxLogicA enables interactive development of analysis of 3D medical images, which can greatly facilitate the work of professionals in this domain.
We revisit two well-established verification techniques, $k$-induction and bounded model checking (BMC), in the more general setting of fixed point theory over complete lattices. Our main theoretical contribution is latticed $k$-induction, which (i)
generalizes classical $k$-induction for verifying transition systems, (ii) generalizes Park induction for bounding fixed points of monotonic maps on complete lattices, and (iii) extends from naturals $k$ to transfinite ordinals $kappa$, thus yielding $kappa$-induction. The lattice-theoretic understanding of $k$-induction and BMC enables us to apply both techniques to the fully automatic verification of infinite-state probabilistic programs. Our prototypical implementation manages to automatically verify non-trivial specifications for probabilistic programs taken from the literature that - using existing techniques - cannot be verified without synthesizing a stronger inductive invariant first.
This extended abstract reports on current progress of SMTCoq, a communication tool between the Coq proof assistant and external SAT and SMT solvers. Based on a checker for generic first-order certificates implemented and proved correct in Coq, SMTCoq
offers facilities both to check external SAT and SMT answers and to improve Coqs automation using such solvers, in a safe way. Currently supporting the SAT solver zChaff, and the SMT solver veriT for the combination of the theories of congruence closure and linear integer arithmetic, SMTCoq is meant to be extendable with a reasonable amount of effort: we present work in progress to support the SMT solver CVC4 and the theory of bit vectors.
Knowledge-based programs provide an abstract level of description of protocols in which agent actions are related to their states of knowledge. The paper describes how epistemic model checking technology may be applied to discover and verify concrete
implementations based on this abstract level of description. The details of the implementations depend on the specific context of use of the protocol. The knowledge-based approach enables the implementations to be optimized relative to these conditions of use. The approach is illustrated using extensions of the Dining Cryptographers protocol, a security protocol for anonymous broadcast.
In this paper, we study new batch-dynamic algorithms for the $k$-clique counting problem, which are dynamic algorithms where the updates are batches of edge insertions and deletions. We study this problem in the parallel setting, where the goal is to
obtain algorithms with low (polylogarithmic) depth. Our first result is a new parallel batch-dynamic triangle counting algorithm with $O(Deltasqrt{Delta+m})$ amortized work and $O(log^* (Delta+m))$ depth with high probability, and $O(Delta+m)$ space for a batch of $Delta$ edge insertions or deletions. Our second result is an algebraic algorithm based on parallel fast matrix multiplication. Assuming that a parallel fast matrix multiplication algorithm exists with parallel matrix multiplication constant $omega_p$, the same algorithm solves dynamic $k$-clique counting with $Oleft(minleft(Delta m^{frac{(2k - 1)omega_p}{3(omega_p + 1)}}, (Delta+m)^{frac{2(k + 1)omega_p}{3(omega_p + 1)}}right)right)$ amortized work and $O(log (Delta+m))$ depth with high probability, and $Oleft((Delta+m)^{frac{2(k + 1)omega_p}{3(omega_p + 1)}}right)$ space. Using a recently developed parallel $k$-clique counting algorithm, we also obtain a simple batch-dynamic algorithm for $k$-clique counting on graphs with arboricity $alpha$ running in $O(Delta(m+Delta)alpha^{k-4})$ expected work and $O(log^{k-2} n)$ depth with high probability, and $O(m + Delta)$ space. Finally, we present a multicore CPU implementation of our parallel batch-dynamic triangle counting algorithm. On a 72-core machine with two-way hyper-threading, our implementation achieves 36.54--74.73x parallel speedup, and in certain cases achieves significant speedups over existing parallel algorithms for the problem, which are not theoretically-efficient.
