Abstract. In this paper we consider the relationship between refinement-oriented specification and specifications using a temporal logic. We investigate the extent to which one can...
This paper investigates relative precision and optimality of analyses for concurrent probabilistic systems. Aiming at the problem at the heart of probabilistic model checking ? com...
Formal verification methods are used only sparingly in software development. The most successful methods to date are based on the use of model checking tools. To use such he user ...
Abstract. Architectural description languages are a useful tool for modmplex software systems at a high level of abstraction and, if based on formal methods, for enabling the early...
Abstract. This paper develops a local reasoning method to check lineartime temporal properties of concurrent programs. In practice, it is often infeasible to model check over the p...
