its procedural take the necessary steps to achieve the final result a fixed final result. you’re even given the grace of margin of error when dealing with decimals why should you fail?

I think formal methods is subject to the same “network effects” as ordinary programming languages It’s been hard to bootstrap those effects, ofc 😣 imho, Verifiable C + CertiCoq shows what this could look like, though granted, it would need more polish

Formalizing the Statement Before a proof is generated, the statement must be expressed mathematically — usually as a circuit or constraint system. This statement can represent a secret value or valid credentials that satisfy certain conditions.

The Formal Methods Symposium will be in Tokyo, 20th to 22nd of May 2026. #FM2026 is interested in work that develops and applies #FormalMethods in a wide range of domains. Abstracts: 25th Nov, 2025 (AoE) Papers: 2nd Dec 2025 (AoE) Details: conf.researchr.org/home/fm-2026 @FMsymp

As a youth I was fascinated by the idea of formal methods, but also frustrated by their relative obscurity and limitations Since then, 🤖 Ergonomic dependent type theory 🤖 CompCert 🤖 Separation logic 🤖 Step indexing 🤖 Competent AI provers (!) Ergo: Formal Methods NOW!

"Formal Verification" IS NOT A BUZZWORD. 🔹It's a mathematical proof that the fundamental code of our consensus works exactly as intended. It's the difference between HOPING your code is secure and PROVING it is 👇 hs.redbelly.network/blog/formal-ve…

Today, in the second of a two-part blog, we look at formal methods & their practical application in real-world examples. James Chapman, head of formal methods, dives deeper into how IO uses these techniques to build robust, scalable solutions for the Cardano ecosystem.…

1/ For several years we've been building Forge, a pedagogically-focused tool to teach formal methods. Here's our first write-up! As the name suggests it's a tribute to Alloy, but we're innovating on several fronts: blog.brownplt.org/2024/04/21/for… ↵

Formal methods are widely used in many software systems you're using today, including many of the most important parts of the Internet's infrastructure. E.g. cloud systems like S3 (amazon.science/publications/u…), EBS (usenix.org/conference/nsd…), and others (cacm.acm.org/magazines/2015…)

The craziest thing about formal methods is that after you've used a model checker enough, you suddenly have an intuition for weird concurrency bugs. Concurrency is hard because we don't normally get immediate feedback on our mistakes. FM gives you that, so your brain picks it up.

You can think of an arithmetic as a system of rules like a board game and not think about the underlying space at all. Mathematicians call such systems "formal" which means "I don't care if this stuff really works out, I will apply these rules blindly and hope it makes sense." 8/

How to translate a verbal theory into a formal model. I just uploaded this paper. Hopefully some people find it useful. Feedback very much appreciated. osf.io/preprints/meta…

A perk of formal theories is that they enable you to see what data your theory actually predicts. Doing this via intuition may not work well. From our preprint (psyarxiv.com/ugz7y): 4 different ways to parameterize 1 verbal theory, all of which lead to very different data.

This is one of the best and most concise articles on Formal Methods I've ever read: hillelwayne.com/post/why-dont-…

People often say formal methods are just an academia or "NASA" thing. They're not. Here are just a few examples of "industry" problems you can tackle with formal specification. I've included examples if they're publicly available, otherwise I've seen/done it in private code.

We take formal methods very seriously at IOHK. Here's a recent presentation from Dr. @philipp_kant the director of our formal methods department youtube.com/watch?v=12nQ4o…

Philipp Kant is the Director of Formal Methods at IOHK. In this video, he explains what formal methods are and how they adopt it into the development process: forum.cardano.org/t/philipp-kant…
