Descripción del proyecto
There is little hope that the world will know secure software if we
cannot make greater strides in the practice of formal methods:
hardware and software devices with errors are routinely turned against
their users. The ProofCert proposal aims at building a foundation
that will allow a broad spectrum of formal methods---ranging from
automatic model checkers to interactive theorem provers---to work
together to establish formal properties of computer systems. This
project starts with a wonderful gift to us from decades of work by
logicians and proof theorist: their efforts on logic and proof has
given us a universally accepted means of communicating proofs between
people and computer systems. Logic can be used to state desirable
security and correctness properties of software and hardware systems
and proofs are uncontroversial evidence that statements are, in fact,
true. The current state-of-the-art of formal methods used in
academics and industry shows, however, that the notion of logic and
proof is severely fractured: there is little or no communication
between any two such systems. Thus any efforts on computer system
correctness is needlessly repeated many time in the many different
systems: sometimes this work is even redone when a given prover is
upgraded. In ProofCert, we will build on the bedrock of decades of
research into logic and proof theory the notion of proof certificates.
Such certificates will allow for a complete reshaping of the way that
formal methods are employed. Given the infrastructure and tools
envisioned in this proposal, the world of formal methods will become
as dynamic and responsive as the world of computer viruses and hackers
has become.
