  2. What • Extended static checker for Java • Array-bounds errors • Null dereference errors • Downcast errors • Concurrency errors

  3. Goals • Deploy ESC technology in useful form • Want eager users • Research required • Adopt to Java (interfaces) • New kinds of checks (object invariants) • Performance (space, time, variability) • Where to give up soundness and completeness

  4. Why: big picture • Reliable software is expensive to develop • Java is the future of programming • Leverage SRC strengths • Past ESC work • Java is like Modula-3

  5. Why: benefits to Digital • Build Java expertise • Support Java programmers in RAD, DEC • PR: Digital as a center of Java excellence • Build prover technology, expertise • Product?

  6. How • Interview RAD Java users • Design, test, document annotation language • Build checker • New code in Java • Front end • Verification-condition generator • Reuse theorem prover from ESC/Modula-3

  7. When • About a year • Release first version of tool • Following months • Build user community • Fold feedback into tool

  8. Who • Rustan Leino • Greg Nelson • Jim Saxe • Raymie Stata • …others
