An Efficient and Parallel Abstract Interpreter in Scala — Preparatory Work — Presentation Abstract interpretation for static analysis Concrete vs abstract interpretation Parallelism References Abstract interpretation for static analysis Abstract interpretation is a technique to perform static analysis A static analysis of a program is made without executing the program The goal is to prove the correctness (or other property) of the program An Efficient and Parallel Abstract Interpreter in Scala — Preparatory Work — Presentation 3 / 12
