Abstract interpretation is a rigorous methodology to compute approximation. The founders of this methodology are Patrick and Radhia Cousot, whose seminal paper on this subject can be found here[1]. Patrick Cousot also has a short explanation on Abstract Interpretation on a web page Abstract Interpretation in a Nutshell. A more elaborate website on this subject can be found on a website [2] maintained by Patrick Cousot. A course outline is available here:[3]
