We prove new results on evasiveness of monotone graph properties by extending the techniques of Kahn, Saks, and Sturtevant [Combinatorica, 4 (1984), pp. 297–306]. For the propert...
Abstract. This paper describes three program transformations that extend the scope of model checkers for Java programs to include distributed programs, i.e., multi-process programs...
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...
Abstract. Model checking real programs has recently become an active research area. Programs however exhibit two characteristics that make model checking di cult: the complexity of...
Abstract. In this paper we propose a distributed algorithm for modelchecking LTL. In particular, we explore the possibility of performing nested depth-first search algorithm in di...
Abstract. We present a process for validating temporal safety properties of software that uses a well-defined interface. The process requires only that the user state the property...
p2b is a research tool that translates Promela programs to boolean representations of the automata associated with them. These representations conform to the input syntax of the wi...
