要旨:
We present the first approach to prove non-termination of integer programs
that is based on loop acceleration. If our technique cannot show
non-termination of a loop, it tries to accelerate it instead in order to find
paths to other non-terminating loops automatically. The prerequisites for our
novel loop acceleration technique generalize a simple yet effective
non-termination criterion. Thus, we can use the same program transformations to
facilitate both non-termination proving and loop acceleration. In particular,
we present a novel invariant inference technique that is tailored to our
approach. An extensive evaluation of our fully automated tool LoAT shows that
it is competitive with the state of the art.
