In this article we present a tool for the verification of programs built on top replicated databases. The tool evaluates a sequential specification and deduces which operations need to be synchronized for the program to function properly in a distributed environment. Our prototype is built over the deductive verification platform Why3. The Why3 Framework provides a sophisticated user experience, the possibility to scale to realistic case studies, as well as a high degree of automation. A case study is presented and discussed, with the purpose of experimentally validating our approach., Comment: Article in Portuguese, accepted in the national informatics conference INForum 2019

This paper explores the idea of using defunctionalization as a proof technique for higher-order programs. Defunctionalization builds on substituting functional values by a first-order representation. Thus, its interest is that one can use an existing program verification tool, without further extensions in order to support higher-order. This papers illustrates and discusses this approach by means of several running examples, built and verified using the Why3 verification framework., Comment: in Portuguese
