Patent attributes
Techniques for program verification are described. An exemplary method includes receiving a request to evaluate code based on a customized rule, the customized rule comprising one or more conditions for which the customized rule is applicable and one or more postconditions to indicate at least one check to perform for a given node in a graph for the code, wherein an application of the customized rule performs one or more of: an interleave between a backward analysis and forward analysis based on user-specified conditions, an analysis between sub-graphs by a query from a first sub-graph to a second sub-graph, and an operation on a sub-graph, storage of a result of the operation on the sub-graph, and usage of the stored result in a subsequent operation; generating a graph for the code; and evaluating the code by applying the customized rule to the generated graph.
