In this paper, we present a method that helps improve the performance of Bounded Model Checking by automatically strengthening invariants so that the termination proof may be obta...
Bounded Model Checking, although complete in theory, has been thus far limited in practice to falsification of properties that were not invariants. In this paper we propose a term...
Abstract— Model checking can be aided by inductive invariants, small local properties that can be proved by simple induction. We present a way to automatically extract inductive ...

Bounded model checking--as well as symbolic equivalence checking--are highly successful techniques in the hardware domain. Recently, bit-vector bounded model checkers like CBMC ha...
Parameterized model checking refers to any method that extends traditional, finite-state model checking to handle systems arbitrary number of processes. One popular approach to thi...
