-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-9339 2011-07-15 00:42:01 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : why Product : Fedora 15 Version : 2.29 Release : 2.fc15 URL : http://why.lri.fr/ Summary : Software verification platform Description : Why is a software verification platform that applies formal proving tools to annotated programs. It is currently capable of analysis of C (through the included tool "Caduceus"), Java (through the included tool "Krakatoa"), and potentially ML programs with some modification into Why's own ML-like language. Furthermore, Why is capable of analysis of any program that is mapped onto its own internal language. It uses a weakest precondition involving calculus to generate potential theorems necessary for the proof of a program's correctness. It translates these theorems into formats that can be used by external proof assistants (without any extra work Coq, PVS, HOL Light, and Mizar are supported - having one is recommended and both Coq and PVS are packaged for Fedora) and automated theorem provers (without any extra work Simplify, Alt-Ergo, Yices, Z3, CVC3, and Zenon are supported and Alt-Ergo, CVC3, and Zenon are packaged for Fedora) so that these results can be externally proven, resulting in a proof of program correctness. Note: Each user account must be set up by running "why-config" at the command line (to set up a configuration file). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: See http://ocamlgraph.lri.fr/download/CHANGES for the bugs fixed in this version of ocaml-ocamlgraph.
