Abstract: This paper describes an approach for verifying programs in the presence of data abstraction and information hiding, which are key features of modern programming languages with objects and modules. The paper focuses on the property of modular soundness, that is, the property that the separate verifications of the individual modules of the program suffice to ensure the correctness of the composite program. The paper introduces a new specification language construct, the abstraction dependency,... (Update)
