A medical company I work with uses Coverity and Klocwork to check the code for possible problems such as resource leaks and uninitialized pointer getting used. However, these are tools and not standard for safety critical code. What I have seen is that MISRA has been working on a standard for C++. They started with … Read more
Well, a few things to start with, since you’re taking the Haskell route: Are you familiar with the Curry-Howard correspondence? There are systems used for machine-checked proofs based on this which are, in many ways, simply functional programming languages with very powerful type systems. Are you familiar with the areas of abstract mathematics that provide … Read more
I am mostly familiar with Coq, and do not have much experience with Isabelle/HOL, but I might be able to help a little bit. Perhaps others with more experience on Isabelle/HOL can help improve this. There are two big points of divergence between the two systems: the underlying theories and the style of interaction. I’ll … Read more
Since you explicitly asked for the most interesting and obscure ones: You can extend C-H to many interesting logics and formulations of logics to obtain a really wide variety of correspondences. Here I’ve tried to focus on some of the more interesting ones rather than on the obscure, plus a couple of fundamental ones that … Read more
