The proofs were constructed manually but have been programmatically machine-verified using the TLA+ Proof System. Taken together, the specifications and proofs contain 61 top-level definitions, 182 LET-IN definitions, 74 named theorems, and 5816 discrete proof steps. The proofs address only the safety of the Memoir system, not the liveness of the system. Safety is proven by showing that a formal low-level specification of the Memoir-Basic system implements a formal high-level specification of desired behavior. The proofs then show that a formal specification of the Memoir-Opt system implements the Memoir-Basic system.}, publisher = {Microsoft Research}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/memoir-formal-specs-and-correctness-proofs/}, number = {MSR-TR-2011-19}, }
