Most optimization problems face the challenge of computing an optimum solution requiring superpolynomial time. In particular, they are classified as NP-hard problems that have no polynomial-time algorithm to date. Instead, computer scientists turn to find an approximate solution and create numerous elegant algorithms. However, in the modern era, computational environments have changed drastically, and we are not able to afford to design new algorithms for each new problem via repeated trial and error. Therefore, systematic ways to understand the possibilities…

Presenter: Suresh Jagganathan, Purdue University Abstract: Unlike program verifiers, symbolic execution and property-based testing tools underapproximate program behavior: they aim to report only real bugs (no false positives), at the cost of potentially missing some (false negatives). Recent work has sought to place such tools on a more formal footing, primarily through the development of incorrectness logics that capture a program’s ‘must’ rather than ‘may’ behavior. This talk explores how to transplant these ideas of underapproximation into an expressive refinement type…
