Automating Refinement Checking in Probabilistic System Design
Abstract. Refinement plays a crucial role in "top-down" styles of verification, such as the refinement calculus, but for probabilistic systems proof of refinement is a pa...

Partial Order Reduction for Probabilistic Systems: A Revision for Distributed Schedulers
Abstract. The technique of partial order reduction (POR) for probabilistic model checking prunes the state space of the model so that a maximizing scheduler and a minimizing one pe...

Design and Implementation of a Consistent Time Service for Fault-Tolerant Distributed Systems
Clock-related operations are one of the many sources of replica non-determinism and of replica inconsistency in fault-tolerant distributed systems. In passive replication, if the ...
