Specifying user interfaces consists in a fundamental activity in the user interface development life cycle as it informs the subsequent steps. Good quality specifications could lea...
We present various techniques for improving the time and space efficiency of symbolic model checking for system requirements specified as synchronous finite state machines. We use...
