Applications
From The Maude System
Maude and its formal tools have been used in many pioneering applications:
- Formal definition and verification of programming and hardware, resp. software, modeling languages: full C (ER12), Java (FCMR04), JVM (FMR04), NASA’s PLEXIL (RCMS12), Verilog (MKMR10), E-LOTOS (V02, VM05), UML (CE06, DRMA14), MOF (BM10), ODP (DV03, DRV05, RVD07), AADL (BOM14), Ptolemy (BOFLT14), and BPMN (DS17, DRS18).
- Browser security: uncovering 12 kinds of unknown attacks on Internet Explorer (CMSWW07), and design and verification of the secure-by-construction Illinois’s IBOS browser (SKMT12, SMR20).
- Cryptographic protocol analysis: Maude-NPA has analyzed many protocols and crypto-APIs modulo algebraic properties, like Yubikey&YubiHSM (GAEMM18), IBM’s CCA (GSEMM14), and PCKS#11 (GSEMM15), using unification and symbolic reachability. Tamarin, resp. AKISS, use Maude’s unification to analyze protocols like 5G-AKA (DC18), resp. RFID (GK17).
- Network protocols: AER/NCA active networks (OKMTZ06), MANETS (LOM16), BGP ***ask Carolyn!***; DDoS-Intruder models; and DDoS protection: ASV (AMG09), Stable Availability (EMMW12), VoIP-SIP (SASGM09), using Maude’s statistical model checking (SMC) tool.
- Cloud transaction system formalization and analysis: Cassandra (LNGRG15), Google’s Megastore (GO14), P-Store (O17), etc. (Betall18), using SMC.
- Analysis of real-time and cyber-physical systems: CASH scheduling \cite{cash-web}, sensor \cite{OlveczkyT09} and MANET \cite{liu-etal-MANETS-JLAMP} networks, timed security protocols \cite{DBLP:conf/indocrypt/Aparicio-Sanchez20}, PALS transformation from synchronous to correct distributed real-time systems \cite{DBLP:journals/tcs/MeseguerO12, multirate-pals-SCP}enables model checking of complex models such as AADL and Ptolemy models, e.g., \cite{DBLP:conf/fm/BaeOM14}, and distributed control of airplane maneuvers \cite{DBLP:journals/corr/abs-1301-0038}.
