Data structures for symbolic multi-valued model-checking
Multi-valued logics can be effectively used to reason about incomplete and/or inconsistent systems, e.g. during early software requirements or as the systems evolve. In our earlie...

Some ways to reduce the space dimension in polyhedra computations
Convex polyhedra are often used to approximate sets of states of programs involving numerical variables. The manipulation of convex polyhedra relies on the so-called double descri...

Dealing with practical limitations of distributed timed model checking for timed automata
Two base algorithms are known for reachability verification over timed automata. They are called forward and backwards, and traverse the automata edges using either successors or p...

Cones and foci: A mechanical framework for protocol verification
We define a cones and foci proof method, which rephrases the question whether two system specifications are branching bisimilar in terms of proof obligations on relations between ...

Distributed disk-based algorithms for model checking very large Markov chains
In this paper we present data structures and distributed algorithms for CSL model checking-based performance and dependability evaluation. We show that all the necessary computatio...

Compositional SCC Analysis for Language Emptiness
We propose a refinement approach to language emptiness, which is based on the enumeration and the successive refinements of SCCs on over-approximations of the exact system. Our alg...

An algebraic theory for behavioral modeling and protocol synthesis in system design
The design productivity gap has been recognized by the semiconductor industry as one of the major threats to the continued growth of system-on-chips and embedded systems. Ad-hoc sy...

A Framework for Modeling the Distributed Deployment of Synchronous Designs
Synchronous specifications are appealing in the design of large scale hardware and software systems because of their properties that facilitate verification and synthesis. When the...

Optimistic synchronization-based state-space reduction
Reductions that aggregate fine-grained transitions into coarser transitions can significantly reduce the cost of automated verification, by reducing the size of the state space. W...
