Abstract
We use access permissions and typestate to specify and verify a Java library that implements snapshotable search trees, as well as some client code. We formalize our approach in the Plural tool, a sound modular typestate checking tool. We describe the challenges to verifying snapshotable trees in Plural, give an abstract interface specification against which we verify the client code, provide a concrete specification for an implementation and describe proof patterns we found. We also relate this verification approach to other techniques used to verify this data structure.KeywordsBoolean VariableAccess PermissionTree Data StructureSnapshot StateClient CodeThese 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.
