About: MALPAS Software Static Analysis Toolset

An Entity of Type: software, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

MALPAS is a software toolset that provides a means of investigating and proving the correctness of software by applying a rigorous form of static program analysis. The tool uses directed graphs and regular algebra to represent the program under analysis. Using the automated tools in MALPAS an analyst can describe the structure of a program, classify the use made of data and provide the information relationships between input and output data. It also supports a formal proof that the code meets its specification.

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • MALPAS is a software toolset that provides a means of investigating and proving the correctness of software by applying a rigorous form of static program analysis. The tool uses directed graphs and regular algebra to represent the program under analysis. Using the automated tools in MALPAS an analyst can describe the structure of a program, classify the use made of data and provide the information relationships between input and output data. It also supports a formal proof that the code meets its specification. MALPAS has been used to confirm the correctness of safety critical applications in the nuclear, aerospace and defence industries. It has also been used to provide compiler validation in the nuclear industry on Sizewell B. Languages that have been analysed include: Ada, C, PLM and Intel Assembler. MALPAS is well suited to the independent static analysis required by the UK's Health and Safety Executive guidance for computer based protection systems for nuclear reactors due to its rigour and flexibility in handling many programming languages.
