JULY 2026: Separation Logic How can a program be memory-safe without drowning in global state? Wednesday at AFMUG: Separation Logic! Local reasoning about pointers and ownership, from the ideas behind Rust's borrow checker to industrial tools like Meta's Infer. Austin Formal Methods Meetup Join us for an evening of program proofs, useful tools, rigorous techniques, vastly more secure and performant software, and lively discussions around the more mathematical approaches to theory and practice. Topics of discussion include interactive theorem provers, SAT/SMT solvers, type theory, temporal logic, model checking, correct-by-construction, AI robustness, and more. See you there!
