The semantics as well as the analyses are formulated by means of global invariants and side-effecting constraint systems. We show that a generalization of the analysis provided by the static analyzer Goblint as well as a natural improvement of Antoine Min\\'e's approach can be obtained as instances of this general scheme. We show that these two analyses are incomparable w.r.t. precision and provide a refinement which improves on both precision-wise. We also report on a preliminary experimental comparison of the given analyses on a meaningful suite of benchmarks.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.07613v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2108.07613v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"improving-thread-modular-abstract","repo_url":"https://github.com/goblint/analyzer","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
