Verification and Synthesis Formula specifications are highly declarative logic programs that can express rich synthesis and verification problems. FORMULA 2.0 is framework for formally specifying domain-specific languages (DSLs) and model transformations. FORMULA specifications are succinct descriptions of DSLs, and specifications can be immediately connected to state-of-the-art analysis engines without additional expertise.
