[Frama-c-discuss] Foudantions of Frama-C framework

I like to know if the assertions above are correct, in sense of theoretical foundations and pratical aspects (concerning the implementation) of the Frama-C deductive framework:

"The ACSL is a language derived from Hoare Logic (with some higher order extensions, like inductivity) and it's used to specify properties concerning C programs."

"Jessie plugin implements some calculus of weakest precondition predicate transform also based on a deductive system derived from Hoare Logic. That calculus is used to convert C code into another language, also Hoare based: the Why input language. Aditionally, Jessie plugin sintatically converts ACSL annotations into the same Why input language."

"The conditions specified in ACSL and the ones calculated from the C code are merged together (by Jessie) into a single Why code (in Why input language), which in turn could be converted (by Why) to the dialect of some prover, e.g. Gallina language of Coq theorem prover".
