Add to ORKGpeer-reviewedMany automated techniques for invariant generation are based on the idea that the invariant should show that something “bad” will not happen in the analyzed program. In this article we present an algorithm for loop invariant generation in programs with assertions using a weakest precondition calculus. We have realized the algorithm in the extended static checker ESC/Java2. Challenges stemming from our initial experience with the implementation are also discussed.EC IST-2005-015905 MOBIUS projec
