Dynamic Data-Driven Formal Progress Envelopes for Distributed Algorithms | Intelligent Structural Systems Lab (ISSL)

This work presents formal progress envelopes applied to flight systems for distinctly classifying a system’s state space into regions where a formal proof of progress for a distributed algorithm holds or does not hold. It also presents an approach for runtime integration of formal methods in the dynamic data-driven applications systems (DDDAS) architecture using parameterized proofs. Finally, it showcases the development of reusable parameterized proof libraries for high-level statistical and stochastic reasoning in the Athena proof assistant and demonstrates their use with a progress proof for the Paxos distributed consensus protocol.
