Abstract. We demonstratehow the use of synchronizationprimitives and threading policies in distributed object middleware can lead to deadlocks. We identify that objectmiddleware on...
Model checking based on the causal partial order semantics of Petri nets is an approach widely applied to cope with the state space explosion problem. One of the ways to exploit su...
Systematic state-space exploration is a powerful technique for veri cation of concurrent software systems. Most work in this area deals with manually-constructed models of those sy...
In this paper bounded model checking of asynchronous concurrent systems is introduced as a promising application area for answer set programming. This is an extension of earlier w...
Since counterexamples generated by model checking tools are only symptoms of faults in the model, a significant amount of manual work is required in order to locate the fault that...
