This paper presents a memory model with nonoverlapping memory areas (regions) for the deductive verification of C programs. This memory model uses a core language that supports arbitrary nesting of structures, unions, and arrays into other structures and allows reducing the number of user-provided annotations as a result of region analysis. This paper also describes semantics of the core language and normalizing transformations for translating an input annotated C program into a program in the core language. In addition, an encoding is proposed for modeling the memory state of a core-language program with logical formulas as described by the model semantics of the core language. For the model semantics, the soundness and completeness theorems are proved. Additional constraints on the typing context of the core-language terms are described that determine the result of the region analysis enabling the complete modeling of a limited class of programs without using additional annotations. A proof sketch for the theorem stating completeness of the proposed region analysis for a limited class of programs is presented.

Multi-level multi-agent systems (MASs) with dynamic structure are widely used in solving important applied problems in telecommunication, transportation, social, and other systems. Therefore, ensuring correct behavior of such systems is an actual and important task. One of the most error-prone stages of system development in the framework of model-oriented approach is the implementation stage, in the course of which a program code is constructed based on the model developed. This paper presents an algorithm for automated translation of MAS models represented as nested Petri nets into systems of distributed components. Nested Petri nets are the extension of Petri nets in the framework of the nets-within-nets approach, which assumes that tokens in a Petri net may themselves be Petri nets, possess autonomous behavior, and interact with other tokens of the net. This makes it possible to model MASs with dynamic structure in a natural way. The translation presented in this paper preserves distribution level and important behavioral properties (safety, liveness, and conditional liveness) of the original model and ensures fairness of the target system execution. The use of such translation makes it possible to automate construction of distributed MASs by models of nested Petri nets. As a test example, translation of nested Petri nets into systems of distributed components was implemented on the basis of the EJB component technology.

This paper proposes a new object model of data for the in-depth analysis of network traffic. In contrast to the model used by most modern network analyzers (for example, Wireshark and Snort), the proposed model supports data stream reassembling with subsequent parsing. The model also provides a convenient universal mechanism for binding parsers, thus making it possible to develop completely independent parsers. Moreover, the proposed model allows processing modified—compressed or encrypted—data. This model forms the basis of the infrastructure for the in-depth analysis of network traffic.
