DOI: 10.1002/smr.1789
Abstract: Reproducing a bug that caused a system to crash is an important task for uncovering the causes of the crash and providing appropriate fixes. In this paper, we propose a novel crash reproduction approach that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10586-017-0757-z
Abstract: The difficulty of finding resources race is well known. Such errors are hard to be detected, because they often happen irregularly and reproduce difficultly. Especially, the kind race conflicts exist among processes, threads, and interrupts.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10817-019-09535-x
Abstract: Automated formal verification is often based on the Counterexample-Guided Abstraction Refinement (CEGAR) approach. Many variants of CEGAR have been developed over the years as different problem domains usually require different strategies for efficient verification. This… read more here.
