Local Hoare Reasoning about DOM
Summary: Compositional formal specification of a significant DOM Core Level 1 fragment by modeling XML as an in‑place heap, with a minimal command set. Adapts local Hoare reasoning (Separation & Context Logic) to yield complete verification for straight‑line DOM updates and JS invariants. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
