Abstract
This paper concerns mechanisms for maintaining the value of an instrumentation predicate (a.k.a. derived predicate or view), defined via a logical formula over core predicates, in response to changes in the values of the core predicates. It presents an algorithm for transforming the instrumentation predicate’s defining formula into a predicate-maintenance formula that captures what the instrumentation predicate’s new value should be.This technique applies to program-analysis problems in which the semantics of statements is expressed using logical formulas that describe changes to corepredicate values, and provides a way to reflect those changes in the values of the instrumentation predicates.KeywordsTransitive ClosureLogical FormulaAbstract InterpretationPredicate SymbolPredicate AbstractionThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
