Preliminary design of a unified JML representation and software infrastructure

Robby, Patrice Chalin · 2009

As a Behavioral Interface Specification Language (BISL) for Java, the Java Modeling Language (JML) is tightly coupled to the base language it enhances. Up until Java 1.4, JML kept apace with the evolution of its base language. Java 5 and subsequent revisions have yet to be fully supported by JML tools. Recent efforts such as JML4 have been addressing this issue by providing an Eclipse-based tooling infrastructure. In its current form, JML4 has a fairly steep learning curve for developers wishing to contribute to or extend it. To address this issue and bring JML tools one step closer to a desired plug-in model, we propose a JML Intermediate Representation (JIR) and supporting software infrastructure for JML front-ends and back-ends.

JML-based Verification of Liveness Properties on a Class in Isolation

Julien Groslambert, et al. · 2006

This paper proposes a way to verify temporal properties of a Java class in an extension of JML (Java Modeling Language) called JTPL (Java Temporal Pattern Language). We particularly address the verification of liveness properties by automatically translating the temporal properties into JML annotations for this class. This automatic translation is implemented in a tool called JAG (JML Annotation Generator). Correctness of the generated annotations ensures that the temporal property is established for the executions of the class in isolation.

Nobakht, Behrooz · Leiden Repository (Leiden University) · 2017

The core contributions of this thesis target the intersection of object orientation, actor\nmodel, and concurrency. We choose Java as the main target programming language\nand as one of the mainstream object-oriented languages. We formalize a subset of\nJava and its concurrency API to facilitate formal verification and reasoning\nabout it. We create an abstract mapping from a concurrent-object modeling language, ABS, to the programming semantics of concurrent Java. We provide the formal semantics of the mapping and runtime properties of the concurrency layer including deadlines and scheduling policies. We provide an implementation of the ABS concurrency layer as a Java API library and framework utilizing the latest language additions in Java 8.

A JML compiler based on AspectJ

Ricardo Lima · 2015

The Java Modeling Language (JML) is a behavioral in-terface specification language (BISL) designed for Java. It was developed with the aim of improving the functional software correctness of Java applications. The JML com-piler (jmlc) generates bytecodes that use the Java reflection mechanism and data structures not supported by Java ME applications. In order to overcome this limitation, we pro-pose the use of AspectJ to implement a new JML compiler, which generates an instrumented bytecode compliant with both Java SE and Java ME applications. The paper also includes a comparative study to demonstrate the quality of the final code generated by our compiler. Results indicate that the overhead in code size produced by our compiler is very small, which is essential for Java ME applications. 1

The Java SPI Framework for Security Protocol Implementation

Matteo Avalle, A. Pironti, Riccardo Sisto et al. · 2011

This paper presents JavaSPI, a "model-driven" development framework that allows the user to reliably develop security protocol implementations in Java, starting from abstract models that can be verified formally. The main novelty of this approach stands in the use of Java as both a modeling language and the implementation language. By using the SSL handshake protocol as a reference example, this paper illustrates the JavaSPI framework.

Implementing the π-Calculus in Java

2008

Mobile communicating systems are ubiquitous in the modern world. The π-calculus proposed by Milner et al [Milner et al. 1992] sets a theoretical foundation for modeling mobile communicating systems such as the Internet, in which links can be sent from processes to processes and a process can use a received link to interact with another process. Here, we present a language named π-language for programming π-calculus processes and a compiler named pi2j for translating the π-programs to Java code, which can be compiled with the Java compiler to JVM bytecode and, then, executed on the Java Virtual Machine. Thus, we implement the π-calculus in the Java language. 1

Program Synthesizes UML Sequence Diagrams

Matthew Barry, Richard N. Osborne · NASA STI Repository (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) · 2006

A computer program called "Rational Sequence" generates Universal Modeling Language (UML) sequence diagrams of a target Java program running on a Java virtual machine (JVM). Rational Sequence thereby performs a reverse engineering function that aids in the design documentation of the target Java program. Whereas previously, the construction of sequence diagrams was a tedious manual process, Rational Sequence generates UML sequence diagrams automatically from the running Java code.

JML

Gary T. Leavens · 2015

JML, the Java Modeling Language, is a formal specification language tailored to the specification of sequential Java classes and interfaces. It features contracts in the style of design by contract (as in Eiffel), as well as more sophisticated features that allow it to be used with a variety of tools from dynamic assertion checking to static verification. The talk will explain JML using some small examples.

Automated Debugging In Java Using OCL And JDI

David J. Murray, Dale E. Parson · ArXiv.org · 2001

Correctness constraints provide a foundation for automated debugging within object-oriented systems. This paper discusses a new approach to incorporating correctness constraints into Java development environments. Our approach uses the Object Constraint Language ("OCL") as a specification language and the Java Debug Interface ("JDI") as a verification API. OCL provides a standard language for expressing object-oriented constraints that can integrate with Unified Modeling Language ("UML") software models. JDI provides a standard Java API capable of supporting type-safe and side effect free runtime constraint evaluation. The resulting correctness constraint mechanism: (1) entails no programming language modifications; (2) requires neither access nor changes to existing source code; and (3) works with standard off-the-shelf Java virtual machines ("VMs"). A prototype correctness constraint auditor is presented to demonstrate the utility of this mechanism for purposes of automated debugging.

Preliminary Design of JML: A Behavioral Interface Specification Language for Java

Copyright Gary, Gary Leavens, Gary T. Leavens et al. · 1998

JML is a behavioral interface specification language tailored to Java. JML is designed to be used by working software engineers, and requires only modest mathematical training. To achieve this goal, JML uses Eiffel-style assertion syntax combined with model-based approach to specifications. However, JML supports quantifiers, specification-only variables, frame conditions, and other enhancements that make it more expressive for specification than Eiffel. This paper discusses the goals of JML, the overall approach, and describes the language through examples. It is intended for readers who have some familiarity with both Java and behavioral specification using pre- and postconditions. 1 Introduction JML stands for "Java Modeling Language." JML is a behavioral interface specification language (BISL) [Win87] designed to specify Java [AG98, GJS96] modules. Java modules are classes and interfaces. The main goal of the research presented in this paper is to better understand how to make BIS...

Ghaith Haddad, Ghaith N. Haddad, Major Professor et al. · 2012

The Java platform is becoming a vital tool for developing real-time and safety-critical systems. Design patterns and the availability of Java libraries, both provide solutions to many known problems. Furthermore, the object-oriented nature of Java simplifies modular development of real-time systems. However, limitations of Java as a programming language for real-time systems are a notable obstacle to producing safe real-time systems. These limitations are found in the unpredectible execution model of the language, due to Java’s garbage collector, and the lack of support for non-functional specification and verification tools. In this dissertation I introduce SafeJML, a specification language for support of functional and non-functional specifications, based on an implementation of a safety-critical Java platform and the Java Modeling Language (JML). This dissertation concentrates on techniques that enable specification and dynamic checking of timing constraints for some important Java features, including methods and subtyping. SafeJML and these dynamic checking techniques allow modular specification and checking of safety-critical systems, including those that use object-orientation and design patterns.
