- Additional information
- "It is usually easier to prove the correctness of functional programs rather than imperative ones. However, imperative code is is often more efficient, and certainly more accessible to non-expert coders.
This paper introduces the first framework that can transform functional programs into equivalent (and more efficient) imperative programs whilst preserving their correctness to a specification.
Enabled the EUR540,000 DFG Grant ""Verifizierte Model Checker"" (KR 4890/1-1, LA 3292/1-1).
Paper is one of 4/30 selected for this special issue, based on the ITP 2015 conference."
