Dual-Processor Parallelisation of Symbolic Probabilistic Model Checking
In this paper, we describe the dual-processor parallelisation of a symbolic (BDD-based) implementation of probabilistic model checking. We use multi-terminal BDDs, which allow a c...

ProbVerus: Probabilistic Symbolic Model Checking
Model checking can tell us whether a system is correct; probabilistic model checking can also tell us whether a system is timely and reliable. Moreover, probabilistic model checkin...
