	Title	Automatic Verification of a Hydroelectric Power Plant			Type	Conference Article
	Year	1996	Publication	Third International Symposium of Formal Methods Europe (FME), Co-Sponsored by IFIP WG 14.3	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	425-444
	Keywords
	Abstract	We analyze the specification of a hydroelectric power plant by ENEL (the Italian Electric Company). Our goal is to show that for the specification of the plant (its control system in particular) some given properties hold. We were provided with an informal specification of the plant. From such informal specification we wrote a formal specification using the CCS/Meije process algebra formalism. We defined properties using μ-calculus. Automatic verification was carried out using model checking. This was done by translating our process algebra definitions (the model) and μ-calculus formulas into BDDs. In this paper we present the informal specification of the plant, its formal specification, some of the properties we verified and experimental results.

	Title	Advanced techniques for safety analysis applied to the gas turbine control system of Icaro co generative plant			Type	Conference Article
	Year	2001	Publication	X Convegno Tecnologie e Sistemi Energetici Complessi	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	339-350
	Keywords
	Abstract	The paper describes two complementary and integrable approaches, a probabilistic one and a deterministic one, based on classic and advanced modelling techniques for safety analysis of complex computer based systems. The probabilistic approach is based on classical and innovative probabilistic analysis methods. The deterministic approach is based on formal verification methods. Such approaches are applied to the gas turbine control system of ICARO co generative plant, in operation at ENEA CR Casaccia. The main difference between the two approaches, behind the underlining different theories, is that the probabilistic one addresses the control system by itself, as the set of sensors, processing units and actuators, while the deterministic one also includes the behaviour of the equipment under control which interacts with the control system. The final aim of the research, documented in this paper, is to explore an innovative method which put the probabilistic and deterministic approaches in a strong relation to overcome the drawbacks of their isolated, selective and fragmented use which can lead to inconsistencies in the evaluation results.

	Title	A characterization of weakly Church-Rosser abstract reduction systems that are not Church-Rosser			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2001	Publication	Information and Computation	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	171	Issue	2	Pages	137-155
	Keywords
	Abstract	Basic properties of rewriting systems can be stated in the framework of abstract reduction systems (ARS). Properties like confluence (or Church-Rosser, CR) and weak confluence (or weak Church-Rosser, WCR) and their relationships can be studied in this setting: as a matter of fact, well-known counterexamples to the implication WCR CR have been formulated as ARS. In this paper, starting from the observation that such counterexamples are structurally similar, we set out a graph-theoretic characterization of WCR ARS that is not CR in terms of a suitable class of reduction graphs, such that in every WCR not CR ARS, we can embed at least one element of this class. Moreover, we give a tighter characterization for a restricted class of ARS enjoying a suitable regularity condition. Finally, as a consequence of our approach, we prove some interesting results about ARS using the mathematical tools developed. In particular, we prove an extension of the NewmanÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s lemma and we find out conditions that, once assumed together with WCR property, ensure the unique normal form property. The Appendix treats two interesting examples, both generated by graph-rewriting rules, with specific combinatorial properties.

	Title	Intersection types and λ-definability			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2003	Publication	Mathematical Structures in Computer Science	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	13	Issue	1	Pages	15-53
	Keywords
	Abstract	This paper presents a novel method for comparing computational properties of λ-terms that are typeable with intersection types, with respect to terms that are typeable with Curry types. We introduce a translation from intersection typing derivations to Curry typeable terms that is preserved by β-reduction: this allows the simulation of a computation starting from a term typeable in the intersection discipline by means of a computation starting from a simply typeable term. Our approach proves strong normalisation for the intersection system naturally by means of purely syntactical techniques. The paper extends the results presented in Bucciarelli et al. (1999) to the whole intersection type system of Barendregt, Coppo and Dezani, thus providing a complete proof of the conjecture, proposed in Leivant (1990), that all functions uniformly definable using intersection types are already definable using Curry types.

	Title	Totality, Definability and Boolean Circuits			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1998	Publication		Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	1443	Issue		Pages	808-819
	Keywords
	Abstract	In the type frame originating from the flat domain of boolean values, we single out elements which are hereditarily total. We show that these elements can be defined, up to total equivalence, by sequential programs. The elements of an equivalence class of the totality equivalence relation (totality class) can be seen as different algorithms for computing a given set-theoretic boolean function. We show that the bottom element of a totality class, which is sequential, corresponds to the most eager algorithm, and the top to the laziest one. Finally we suggest a link between size of totality classes and a well known measure of complexity of boolean functions, namely their sensitivity.

	Title	Some Computational Properties of Intersection Types (Extended Abstract)			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication		Abbreviated Journal
	Volume		Issue		Pages	109-118
	Keywords	lambda calculusCurry types, intersection types, lambda-definability, lambda-terms, strong normalization
	Abstract	This paper presents a new method for comparing computation-properties of λ-terms typeable with intersection types with respect to terms typeable with Curry types. In particular, strong normalization and λ-definability are investigated. A translation is introduced from intersection typing derivations to Curry typeable terms; the main feature of the proposed technique is that the translation is preserved by β-reduction. This allows to simulate a computation starting from a term typeable in the intersection discipline by means of a computation starting from a simply typeable term. Our approach naturally leads to prove strong normalization in the intersection system by means of purely syntactical techniques. In addition, the presented method enables us to give a proof of a conjecture proposed by Leivant in 1990, namely that all functions uniformly definable using intersection types are already definable using Curry types.

	Title	A CuCh Interpretation of an Object-Oriented Language			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2001	Publication	Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	50	Issue	2	Pages	159-177
	Keywords
	Abstract	CuCh machine extends pure lambdaÃ‚â€“calculus with algebraic data types and provides a the possibility of defining functions over the disjoint sum of algebras. We exploit such natural form of overloading to define a functional interpretation of a simple, but significant fragment of a typical object-oriented language.
