This paper is concerned with developing an information-theoretic framework to aggregate the state space of a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) on discrete state and observation spaces. The...
This paper describes a reduction technique which is very useful against the state explosion problem which occurs when model checking distributed systems with several instances of t...
Higher-Order Fixpoint Logic (HFL) is a hybrid of the simply typed λ-calculus and the modal µ-calculus. This makes it a highly expressive temporal logic that is capable of express...
We describe an improvement of the partial-order reduction algorithm for breadth-first search which was introduced in Spin version 4.0. Our improvement is based on the algorithm by...
Ideally, a model checking tool should successfully tackle state space explosion for complete system validation, while providing short counterexamples when an error exists. Techniqu...
