Summary

This work reconciles the differences between FSE and WP by proposing a new directionless weakest precondition that can be run in both the forward and backward direction, and provides the more attractive O(M) VC generation time and predicate size while allowing VC generation in execution order, which is what makes FSE attractive in practice.
