Additional information
<07> This paper, described as "a tour de force of formal verification" by
John Regehr (a systems programmer) on his famous blog on 21 May
2012, shows that the methods that I developed during my PhD (my
thesis was selected as the winner of the British Computer Society's
Distinguished Dissertation Competition 2010) scale to significant
case studies. In this case, to a fully featured operating system kernel,
the seL4 microkernel. Together with Thomas Sewell, I verified the
correctness of the binary that GCC produces from the C code for
the kernel.
