Abstract. Many software model checkers are based on predicate abstraction. If the verification goal depends on pointer structures, the approach does not work well, because it is di...
We present Delta Execution, a technique that speeds up state-space exploration of object-oriented programs. Statespace exploration is the essence of model checking and an increasin...

In the context of large scale industrial installations, model checking often fails to tap its full potential because of a missing link between a system’s specification and its f...
The lack of a precise semantics for UML activity diagrams makes the reasoning on models constructed using such diagrams infeasible. However, such diagrams are widely used in domai...
Model checking of infinite state systems is undecidable, therefore, there are instances for which fixpoint computations used in infinite state model checkers do not converge. Gi...
