Towards Automated Proof Support for Probabilistic Distributed Systems
Abstract. The mechanisation of proofs for probabilistic systems is particularly challenging due to the verification of real-valued properties that probability entails: experience ...

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...

On the Equality of Probabilistic Terms
We consider a mild extension of universal algebra in which terms are built both from deterministic and probabilistic variables, and are interpreted as distributions. We formulate a...

Role-Based Symmetry Reduction of Fault-Tolerant Distributed Protocols with Language Support
Fault-tolerant (FT) distributed protocols (such as group membership, consensus, etc.) represent fundamental building blocks for many practical systems, e.g., the Google File System...

Cache modeling in probabilistic execution time analysis
Multimedia-dominated consumer electronics devices (such as cellular phone, digital camera, etc.) operate under soft real-time constraints. Overly pessimistic worst-case execution ...
