Quantum Doeblin Coefficients: Interpretations and Applications [PDF]
In classical information theory, the Doeblin coefficient of a classical channel provides an efficiently computable upper bound on the total-variation contraction coefficient of the channel, leading to what is known as a strong data-processing inequality.

TLA+ is a specification language based on standard set theory and temporal logic that has constructs for hierarchical proofs. We describe how to write TLA+ proofs and check them with TLAPS, the TLA+ Proof System.

Formal Analysis of Bakery-Based Mutual Exclusion Algorithms
Lamport’s Bakery algorithm (LBA) represents a general and elegant solution to the mutual exclusion (ME) problem posed by Dijkstra in 1965. Its correctness is usually based on intuitive reasoning.

Leader Election in Anonymous Rings: Franklin Goes Probabilistic [PDF]
We present a probabilistic leader election algorithm for anonymous, bidirectional, asynchronous rings. It is based on an algorithm from Franklin, augmented with random identity selection, hop counters to detect identity clashes, and round numbers modulo ...

Hierarchical token based mutual exclusion algorithms [PDF]
Mutual exclusion is a basic block of distributed synchronization algorithms. One of the challenge in highly distributed environments (like peer-to-peer or Grid configurations) is to provide scalable synchronizations taking into account the hierarchical network topology. This paper proposes hierarchical mutual exclusion algorithms.

Synthesis of Parametric Programs using Genetic Programming and Model Checking [PDF]
Formal methods apply algorithms based on mathematical principles to enhance the reliability of systems. It would only be natural to try to progress from verification, model checking or testing a system against its formal specification into constructing ...
