SPLASH 2022
Mon 5 - Sat 10 December 2022 Auckland, New Zealand

Robots and other cyber-physical systems are held to high standards of safety and reliability, and thus one must be confident in the correctness of their software. Formal verification can provide such confidence, but programming languages that lend themselves well to verification often do not produce executable code, and languages that are executable do not typically have precise enough formal semantics. We present MARVeLus, a stream-based approach to combining verification and execution in a synchronous programming language that allows formal guarantees to be made about implementation-level source code. We then demonstrate the end-to-end process of developing a safe robotics application, from modeling and verification to implementation and execution.
